i dont know why , but i think the best bass lines of wooten are with bela fleck, i lisent a lot of wooten solos, and with other guys, but when i see him with bela fleck, he got the best tunes .
well said, i find he does go way over the top with his solo's in his more recent performances rather than letting the other musicians contribute as much, still, he is a god on the bass (:
awesome. vic is an amazing bassist and bela fleck & the flecktones flay beautifully together. just one question though. whats with the synthax drumtar, i can't even hear it, is it just me or is it not turned up enough?
You know what? I think you're right! The drumitar is very low! I checked the VHS and it's the same way...so that means it's unfortunately just a bad mix from the show.
@VideoSamaritan Actually it is so it doesn't interfere with the mandolin chop, considering the mandolin chop and the snare drum on a drum is pretty much the same thing, they probably turned the drums down so you could actually hear the mandolin. ^^
This groove just got STANK on it. I (tried) to record a segment of it the other night. Not too bad, but man, it just doesn't hold a candle up to the real deal.
There is a really good example of the drumitar on another video: The Original Flecktones at Telluride! "Rap/Hole In The Wall." During the "Flecktone Rap" Victor mentions "the drums that must've come from outer space," then you can really hear some of the cool sounds the drumitar can do (like lusklasse said).

The 2nd is correct...drumitar. Looks like a guitar, but sounds like a drum (plus a whole lot more!)
