Ambient/solo bass

Murder_Worship · #1 01-01-2009, 02:51 PM

well i got no takers at my other song i recorded recently. i guess it was due to the genre. I've been dabbling into solo bass and ambient music, and ive had one solo bass song that ive played live a few times and since i got my toneport i decided to try recording my other types of songs.

The song "Hybrid Fleece" ive had for quite a while now.
"Sleeping Goats" i just recorded today, was complete improvisation and i think it turned out wonderfully.

I'd buy this if you had a CD.

Very chill, just the right amount of effects (though maybe -> <- much too much reverb) and great feel.

I like "Sleeping Goats" pretty well, but I gotta say that the second half of "Hybrid Fleece" is just cool as ****.

I added you as a friend.

reminds me a lot of a stefan lassard (dave matthews band) solo but...better.

Nice music. I like stuff that reminds me of wide open spaces...the southwestern U.S., the ocean...etc.

thanks alot
and neurotictim, im going to take your advice and try to rerecord using less reverb to see how it sounds.

Sounds good. It's more music than song; and almost as much sound as music. How are you doing the dubbing / layering? (and how would you do it live?)

Murder_Worship · #14 02-24-2009, 05:38 PM

the onyl one i have preformed live before is hybrid fleece, it only has one part so i can jus play it, ive never done sleeping goats live, i jam on it by myself a lot. ive kind of re-wrote since ive recorded it. i wouldnt have a way of doing the different layers live, id just modify the bass line, some parts play the main melody next time around play the harmony perhaps?
