This is a excerpt from a disco song I'm nearly done with. I took out all the other tracks except for the drums & bass. http://herculeaneffort.adventuredeve...%20excerpt.mp3
Comments and criticism are welcome!
If you want I can post the disco tune when I'm done with it, too.  |

But thats a personal thing. Otherwise it sounds good. However, the little run that you do at 23 sec drops out. it sounds pretty nice, so you might want to get that up in the mix a little more. Phat Groove!! |

Don't forget to post the finished song when you're done, OK?

I think getting a Marcus Miller signature J-bass would really get me that nice slap tone... any other suggestions for basses? |

they'll let you be heard in the mix.   |

But same with other, U could use more mid in your tone 
to make it a bit fatter and warmer.
keep on slapping |
