Reggaebass Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 I’ve been following Linval Thompson since the early 80s , and he’s still got it, he’s about 66 now, there’s some nice bass playing here at sunsplash 2019, looks like the bass player is playing a Marcus Miller jazz through an Ampeg rig (not sure who he is). , can’t stop natty dread again at 21.08 sounds great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaebass Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 @Nail Soup if you want to browse some different styles of reggae have a look (if you haven’t already) at irie ites site , they are a french studio/ record label , they’ve recorded so many artists , and there’s a lot of synth Basslines used on lots of their tracks, let me know what you think 👍 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumOne Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 (edited) Dubstep at it's dubby best (before the agro screechy stuff took over what everyone associates with the genre....which, perhaps ironically- was also pioneered by Coki with 'Spongebob').

Lyrics are being recorded right now actually, but not finished yet. The video isn't 100% perfect, but it's still pretty cherry regardless.

Reggaebass Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Great Bassline here from Aston Barrett, from the album confrontation and another excellent Marley cover from Rafael Cardoso , I’ve posted this before, I’m hoping to get the bassline down today ☝️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishman Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Thanks man, nice piece that sums things up perfectly – I love all that mis-spelling of artists names, always makes me wonder what the heck was going on I agree with you about the bass on the second one – I'm sure my vinyl copy from decades ago doesn't have that cymbal at the start, will have to dig it out and check 🙃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cato Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) I've just discovered Throttle Elevator Music, they're definitely not a reggae band, more of a jazz group that crosses into other genres. Anyway just heard this on the 'Emergency Exit' album and really liked it. Edited March 16, 2021 by Cato 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
