upright bass slap aTTAck

[XlongsoulX]

how it's possible this?!?

[dirtyolcanyanero]

I'm jealous. this is a girl playing? I hope to play this good one day!

[Martiluk1]

It almost seemed sped up. Not hatein', it'd be impressive to me at half that speed, I'm just saying.

[motcrue64]

Great Job man! Just subscribed to ya! Subscribe back and check out my songs! :)

[VALTRONICA]

This is great!

[marq18]

I have never seen a skull and cross bones get slapped so vigorously

[silentviolence58]

all you mufuckas are hella hatin on dis cat....let him play his shit yo.....wtf...stay up skumbag fuck these foos talkin shit.

[blueridger28]

Just made that your bitch, tighter than nun pussy

[Thiora]

don't listen to the haters, this is quality stuff.

[PatrickDocmanov92]

Its not your original . You are just using a I - IV - V progresion and slapping it . I dont see originality in that

[SkumbagEsko]

@PatrickDocmanov92 I am not a musician. I just so happen to be a person who one day picked up a bass and played it, I have no musical background and have never taken a single class. I personally do not think I'm talented, Period. Some people however do like the way I play and some don't. In my opinion it depends what type of music a person is into. You seem to like classical, and I personally like psychobilly. So who are you to say what's original is in my world? Stick to what you know.

[PatrickDocmanov92]

@SkumbagEsko

I am just saying , go diverse . Dont stick to one genre .

[Barclaycard1]

@SkumbagEsko that is fine playing! :)

[tucker441]

@PatrickDocmanov92 so what? that doesn't mean what hes playing isn't original. go listen to hysteria by muse. its a I-V-IV-I progression, does that make that bassline less original and awesome?

[slargin50]

@PatrickDocmanov92 does that care ?

[XSeeYaInThePitX]

you made that stand up yo bitch!

[ohsillyanna]

I think youre great! keep on keepin on.

[StopTheMoti0n]

Hello, bass players. i have been searching the internet for a cheap and decent upright bass. i came across one called the Florea Midnight Bass Outfit(3/4 size black). if anyone could give me some feedback on it, i would greatly appreciate it. thanks.

[chatzren66]

beautiful XD

[TeejKaPow]

hey Im just starting to get into playing bass. How do you handle the strings? do you pluck them away from the fretboard or do you hit them against it? haha sorry Im a n00b

[SkumbagEsko]

pluck away from the fretboard and slap, grab the string with the tips of your fingers and slap it down

[ANALxXxMARGARITA]

dude that is bad ass!

[fallchildren138]

sick.r u in a band?

[SkumbagEsko]

Nope. not at all.

[fallchildren138]

[slipknotrocks421]

[chopatize]

[Buddha117]

hey mate. how did you get your strings so close to the bridge??

did you sand it down. And was oit hard?

[SkumbagEsko]

I just lowered the bridge... Like, It's suppose to be in between the "F Holes" but I put it a bit lower.

[Buddha117]

hey thanks. yeah i might try and do that. thanks a million.

Also, are you using steel strings?

[SkumbagEsko]

Yesm. In this video I am.

[Skitzobilly]

Is that a 'Jozin z Bazin' song?

[SkumbagEsko]

Nope. Not that I know of, thats something I made up.

[xr3druM]

Commented on another of your vidoes a moment ago, but this one is even more amazing!

Keep up the incredible work, you'll go very far if you keep doing it!

[SkumbagEsko]

lol I hope! naw, just for fun but thank you :)

[jackomite2]

geez that was crazy

[Hpasc1223]

Damn thats fine bass

[SkumbagEsko]

thank you :)

[FlorestheGreat]

You really need to make a song out of that with a band with the bass leading the way. Thats a total hard charging bass line. Kinda makes me want to run around breaking shit while grooving.

[SkumbagEsko]

lol! That would be an awesom Idea but there isn't much where I live that hasn't been done. I though that the fact that I'm a girl bass player would count for something but unfortunetly It's been done hahaha

[heid138]

indeed it has been done, but god damn... thats indescribably good!!!

PSYCHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[zoikon]

and where did you learn that xD

[SkumbagEsko]

I made it up :)

[FlorestheGreat]

Wow thats sick. Dont stop slappin.

[SkumbagEsko]

Thank you :)

[SkumbagEsko]

I've actually given some lessons, but I found out that I have absolutely no teaching skills lol

[terminalexistence]

hmm... well its better to be a player than a teacher.

[Rottenteeth13]

[wwwbrandohorg]
