we need a bassist in the NYC area who
plays 5-string (or a 4-string tuned B-E-A-D)
is totally cool playing with programmed beats (be honest)
sometimes uses distortion, chorus, or bass synth
can follow/learn mostly by ear
has gear and wants to play live as well as studio
loves our music and wants to be a part of it and add their own ideas
our music is mostly dark and deep but has lighter and melodic elements
you should be into that and naturally dress the part
(hint: black is a normal part of your wardrobe and not a stretch)
some bands that have the kind of BASS we're looking for:
the cure, joy division, u2, calla, elvis costello, marilyn manson
some bands people mention when trying to describe US:
radiohead, depeche mode, the cure, nine inch nails, my bloody valentine, xiu xiu
send a private message or email by clicking on the username "inthedepths"
with details about yourself, your gear, what you want in a band, etc.
links to online examples of your playing are a plus
you'll get links and info in return if we're interested
no players-for-hire, this is a band looking for the right member
(yes we want to gig, sell recordings and make money though)
