:D It's really not. I didn't mark your comment as spam, so you know. I'm fine with criticism.

The underlying harmonic loop sounds vaguely like Okonkole Y Trompa from Jaco Pastorius first solo disc.

Its not that it is too busy...I think the groove of the first track is off.

i have a question about fretless basses in general...ive heard your not supposed to slap on them because it will wear down the fingerboard, is that true?

[bryanrtyler]

While slapping can wear down the bottom edge of the fingerboard more than regular playing will, it is usually only by a very small degree more (unless you have a soft fingerboard wood, which you shouldn't have if it's on a fretless anyways).

[lnyitrai]

as far as i know, for this reason fretless slappers tend to add a metallic cover to the end of the fingerboard... and it sounds great. never seen such though.

[bryanrtyler]

Yeah, a slap plate as their called. They apparently can reduce that bit of wear and add a bit of a metallic pin so it sounds a bit more like a fretted when slapping. Never tried one myself, and they're pretty rare to see.

Too busy! You need to limit the amount of segments used. Other than that, nice job.

[buffeater]
