lol just watched this again you're all right i didnt realise how much i've just played over the top and totally distracting from the original track. I'll upload a new version soon!
You're very skilled and your technique's got a nice flow to it. But this bassline has too many accidentals. If pretty much every note you played was in this song's key it would sound fucking amazing.
This isn't quite "fucking amazing" though. It's just pretty damn good.
it says improv right there in the video description. for those of you who are musically illiterate that means he was making the music up as he went on. he was in no way shape or form trying to play the actual baseline. this is sick
yeah its a little much but you are very skilled and overall I did watch it a couple times to let it all sink in. hah! Keep it up man, you have the bass fingers of a god. This was just a little frantic for this song, in my opinion but overall, very nice work!!!
Nice stuff there man, and those people saying it's 'overplayed' pfft, jealousy ;P, jk, this slap line fits in pretty well in my opinion, if it was put as the bassline to the actual track i think it would fit perfectly, would like to see some jammin' over some mega man tunes, would be particularly cool! :D keep it up x
@MastaGambit BUT, you'll notice in some of his videos that he doesn't wear because he doesn't really need it. He just wore it for this one to grace us with his godly slap bass power.
thats not really the bassline to the song. if u took the song off the video i would HAVE NO IDEA what you wer playing. Maybe thats just a LITTLE TOO creative.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I gave u one star for being an alright bass player, but the song sucked. It didn't even go with the music, try again and remember sometimes less is better
I know what I'm saying I've acculy seen him play and he has a thumb pick. I also seen he has a finger led. But it seemed as if hitting those notes sounded EXCATLY as a thumb pick
If Mark King did music for sonic, this would be it.
