Hey y'all, Slikk Tim's the name and bass is my game.

On my channel you'll find a variety of playalongs, jams and tips :-)
CLICK ON PLAYLISTS or SEE ALL PLAYLISTS TO NAVIGATE MY CHANNEL :-)

I love and play lots of different genres, but I chose Funk as a mainstay: all the music like to play have some kinda funk in 'em, be it Latin, Jazz, House/Techno music, Heavy Metal, Reggae, whatever, as long as it grooves.

Since I play out a lot, I don't have much time to do as much videos as I want.
But don't worry, more will come!

And thanks again for your comments, it's always cool to read from you.

Keep it funk'd up
Tim

I created a Creative Commons net-label for Hardbop Jazz, called RawBounce Records.
I'm the leader for it's houseband,
The Real Dealers, check it out:

I play in Orquesta Ceiba, one of France's finest salsa bands:

I was also involved in hiphop and it was a great experience working with rappers.

I also love to make drum'n'bass and detroit-style techno but don't have much time to really do something with it... maybe later !

--------------------

Some simple advice I can give to any bassist:

We've been blessed because almost all of the music you can hear has always bass.
From classical to techno, there is always an instrument dedicated to hold the bottom.

Try to keep your ears open, and learn from any kind of bass, be it a synth, or a tuba, or a string bass, it doesn't matter cause it's all bass in the end.

It will open your mind to totally different conceptions. Take house music: when you program a bassline on a MIDI sequencer, you can play virtually anything cause there is no technical limitations. However, most house lines are incredibly minimal and effective.

Flatline, nobody gives a shit about the technical side of your playing, it can be easy, hard, fast, slow, anything. People just wanna hear bass that feels good.

Oh yeah, and try to play every style you can with as few instruments as possible. It will forge your style in the end.
