Bassist/Composers and Synthesizers

[Dr. Cheese]

As a child of the funk era, I love bassists who found cool ways to integrate synthesizers into their work. Obviously the bassists who did it best were composer arrangers. My favorites are Marcus Miller, MeShell Ndegeocello, Larry Graham, and Fred Hammond. I love that all of them are not shy about using the synth bass when it suits their goals.

Tom Jenkinson (Squarepusher) also is a phenominal bass player as well as his work with synths and sequencers is nothing short of jawdropping
