ANYONE NEED BASS SWEEPING EXERCISES

Thanks, I am currently working on the basic major scale pattern at the moment. Some other examples to add to the list of sweepers is Omnipresent Perception by Beyond Creation, it is more traditional/prog Death metal and Synaptic Plasticity by Blotted Science (Alex Webster's side project), that features some nice arpeggiated tapping sweeps during the bass fills, I find the other examples a bit "let's make everything as complicated as possible". :)

Ya dude I love Blotted Science. Speaking of tapping sweeps if anyone reads this Protest The Hero is another good example. Ya that music is just about playing complicated stuff. But it's fun!

Just to throw in, Been watching this guy on youtube for a while now, some of the craziest sweeping I have seen on bass and he makes it look so easy and smooth.

DUDE SCOTT PLUMMER IS MY GREATEST INFLUENCE! Many people may think that he's just wankin with the guitar but there is musicality in that and he is freaken amazing. Hes so good at tapping sweeping and he can slap really fast. Pit of Pestilence is one of my favorite songs to play!

Hey to everyone who needs the exercises if you want them just post like everyone has been doing and I WILL get them to you. It's just I'm still in high school and it takes up a huge part of the week. And I'm in a worship band and we are quite busy in the coming month. So just post and it may be a day or two before I can get them to you but I will get them to you. I'll try to be on as much as I can.
Thanks.
