My very first 'follow-up interview'...

Shep on Bass - Interview follow up: Anthony Wright

Much has changed with Ant's set up since my interview with him all those months ago. His band, Castrovalva, are going from strength to strength and interest in his setup has become great. With all that gigging and all his gear getting put through it's paces night after night something was sure to change! Ant was cool enough to spend a few minute discussing those changes...

I love Castrovalva's stuff. So, so good, and Anthony absolutely tears it up.

Yeah man, Ant's badass... He's a super cool dude as well. A real character.

A little different this time...

It was me being interviewed!?

Interview with Chris "Shep" Shepperson on Tayste Blog

Steven Taylor (better known around these parts as Tayste_2000) of Our Innocence Lost is a fellow online forum user, blogger and a great musician. I was keen to interview Ste about his love of pedals and to quiz him on why he now uses a much reduced set up with his band. During these conversations he flipped the whole thing on it'd head and threw a pile of questions at me. While you wait for my interview with Ste, check out what I had to say...

*** Merry Christmas everyone!!! ***

pantherairsoft · #**131** 01-19-2013, 06:11 AM

After a nice Christmas break I'm hitting the interviews full force. Here is the 1st of 2013...

Shep on Bass - Interview: Jimmy Bridges

Jimmy Bridges is the bass, synth, electronics & all-round low-end noise monger for London Post Rock legends UpCDownC.

Unlike many of the people I have interviewed, Jimmy does not have a huge pedal set up, though he does have access to an equally complex sounding range of tones, opting instead of a range of Synth and software items to compliment the core of his bass tones.

Check out what Jimmy has to say about his gear and his sound...

pantherairsoft · #**132** 01-26-2013, 07:51 AM

Another one for you!

Shep on Bass - Interview: Nathan Latona

Nathan Latona is the low-end man from Sacramento prog' legends Tera Melos.

Tera Melos bring the noise. Every show, every record, every track. They produce a sonic assault on the senses and Nathan's grinding bass is the backbone to this tour-de-force. Tera Melos have a reputation of touring. They gig constantly all over the world taking their unique progressive sounds to more venues each year than most of us can even imagine possible. If you've seen them live then you'll know that Nathan's live bass tone is something of pure brutal genius.

rjovin · #**133** 01-26-2013, 09:37 AM

thanks for the last two interviews shep. i must say, upcdownc are now one of my new favorite bands! also liking what i've heard from tera melos so far.

pantherairsoft · #**134** 01-26-2013, 04:00 PM

By popular demand...

Shep on Bass - Interview: Stu Brooks

I present to you Dub-bass legend, Stu Brooks...

Stu is best known for his work with New York heavy-hitters Dub Trio. Dub Trio have carved a place for themselves not only as a band in their own right, but also as the backing on tour for acts such as Mike Patton and his Peeping Tom outfit & Matisyahu. Stu's bass-heavy dub style has also earned him the spot laying down lines for the likes of 50 Cent, Lady Gaga, Pretty Lights & Tony Yayo to name but a few.

Check out what Stu has to say about his awesome set up and monstrous sound...

skulletwhip · #**138** 02-03-2013, 07:41 AM

Thank you for that! My band opened for Dub Trio once in Michigan. They were unbelievable. They were all super cool dudes too.

pantherairsoft · #**139** 02-03-2013, 07:44 AM

Pleasure dude, thanks for reading.

Stu has been über cool over the interview. Looking forward to catching up with him in London in March!

Time for a big one!!!

Shep on Bass - Interview: Jon Stockman

I feel very privileged to be able to present to you the awesome Jon Stockman of Karnivool!

Karnivool is a band I have loved for some years now so when Jon agreed to an interview I was pretty excited! Jon's dirt tones have been discussed on just about every online bass forum I've ever visited and phone camera pics of his set up crop up on pedalboard discussion threads everywhere. I thought it was time to get the details straight from the man himself!
