Hello! New member here!

I have been exploring bass for about a year, after finding it rewarding to use in my music. I make abstract and conceptual psychedelic electronic music, and bass fits right in among 303s, synths, and guitar. The later I have obsessed over as long as I remember, and the bass bug is now calling!

Currently play a great Fender Player Jazz, which is 9 lbs and quite good actually. Looking maybe to update some things, but otherwise might need a P bass too, you know how it goes!

Anyway, glad to be here to learn and enjoy the deep end!
 
Do you have any music samples to share with us?
If yes, you can do so in one of the following forums:

Thanks for this. Yes, I have many music samples- about to release my 7th Album on as many months. My most recent has some bass on several tracks.

I'll check out those links- my music is on bandcamp and streaming platforms, but I don't have "content" that isn't my music. Not sure if it's good to post these in such forums, as I do not want to spam things up!

In this case, we would encourage you to create one thread in the YouTube and Social Media forum, then share your links there.
We sure appreciate your desire not to spam us with your music, but we also would enjoy taking a listen. If you began posting links to your music all over the forums, then yes we'd find ourselves in an awkward situation where it can be viewed as spam. Or even posting in other forums for folks to go check out your thread, that'd be spammy too.

Ok, that makes perfect sense, will start a thread when my new Album drops and update it as I release- keeps it in one place.

Thanks!
