Definitely! I've been spinning his album recently; it's worth a listen if you liked that song. I thought this was a cool read: Introducing…, Aaron Frazer’s debut solo album, co-released on Easy Eye Sound and Dead Oceans, is a testament to his wide-ranging influence and showcases deep...

Thank you! I will definitely take a peek at it.

Hello! Can any the talkbass internet detectives help me out with exactly what this bass is that I have attached? Here is a live performance too: I can’t be sure, but I think this is what is being played on Aaron Frazer’s album “Introducing” on a few tracks and that woody thump feels...
