Sam Sparro - 21st Century Life (Bass Cover)

This song and the verse bass riff are simply something every bassist should check out. Dave Wilder, the session bassist, did a terrific job and I have no idea how to replicate that sound he got. Mixing out the bass was a terrible endeavor. In watching this, I learned a lot about my own playing in that I hold tension in my jaw during bits that I'm afraid to mess up on. Tension is the devil! Also, I didn't find any decent tabs of this so for the main line, I just sat down and figured it out best I could.

I made a quick video breaking down the verse riff here:
