If seen on youtube that yall posted a seinfeld clip on your site, and I just wanted to let you know I made "The Seinfeld Rap" and I was wondering if you would consider posting it on your site. . I also made a music video/picture show to go along with it. I put a lot of work into it and if you’re a fan of the show, I think you will really like it. Thank you for listening.
Not sure... At that time I reaaally doubt you could have a synth that had such a sound. Just last year they released the "trilian", that has some awesome basses, including the slap one.
not really, it's more popular then it was but it still isn't center stage and it never will be. A bass player is there to accent drum beats and accent the more bassy of the guitar players notes. Plus you don't hear a lead bass part or even solo that often. Sure if you listen to Primus you will but seriously famous or "popular" bands you won't. Tool doesn't count.
You'd be suprised buddy. The neck on these things are among some of the BEST I've ever tried, and most people who've played the Yamaha RBX-270j's tend to agree
@mattnessfreshness I agree :D Our school owns two and they feel soooo good compared to the other three basses that they own (A Sammick, and two ashtons)
@monologuh nah man, my school has one of them in the music room and for a 400 dollar bass, it's freakin good! perfect for slapping and popping... it doesn't deserve to be cheap :P
well basically you slap (that means hit, not strum - very important) low strings with the hard part of your thumb, where the joint is. it's also important that you move your hand only in wrist. do not move your thumb. after slapping the low string you pull a high string up with one of the remaining fingers, usually index or middle. basically this is it, you just need lots of practice. once again, SLAP the string, do not fingerpick. it's a very common mistake people do. hope this was helpful.
theres no tricks to slapping and popping, just slap with your thumb and pop hard with your fingers, for 90% of people it won't work at first or it'll sound muted and they'll try to figure out why, if this happens to you dont blame your amp or bass just trust me and practise it'll come with time.
how do you play slap? i have a fender jazz precision bass (same as Geddy lee :D) and i cannot for the life od me figure out how to play slap. also, could you make tabs for this??
Can you post a version without the original theme that you're playing along to? Would love to hear it clean, by itself. Other than that, good work mate.
Great job man! I'd just like to know where you got the backing track to play along with here. If you still have it, can you put it up for download on here? Message me! Thanks!
Great job dude! I would like to know one thing though, where did you get the backing track to playing along with? If you still have it, can you put it up for download? Message me back! Thanks!
Hey dude...Cheers for the comment! The backing track is just the normal seinfeld theme song with the bass part already in it, you should be able to download it somewhere. I got a copy of it ages ago so I can't recall where i got it from in the first place. Sorry man
Agreed with Punky619619. The sound could have been way better if you used the line-in or microphone-in of your pc. This one sounds like you put a headphone next to a microphone
Figure it out for yourself like many real musicians did by listening to the song and pointing out the notes instead of being a lazy ass and badgering the poor guy for "tabs".
i agree with you bendunstan, some people cant work out the music. i can work out a lot of stuff, and i worked out this, but i wasn't sure on some of it so i found the tabs and correctied my mistakes. you shouldn't rely on tabs, but they are very useful.
