from one of the greatest bassist of all time. Flea. just a very very small sample of his work.

Totally forgot about this one! This has been one of my favorite songs since I was a baby. The bassline is GENIUS.

lol

^lol I was just thinking about that song! hahaha

Most of Flea's stuff....I know there is some other stuff, but it doesn't come to my mind right now

Come Together has a great bass line, but my favorite bass player was in this Aussie band called The Triffids.

So, er where's the post-punk?

 

Legendary song, Peter Hook made me realise bass was actually interesting!

RIP Rowland, one of Australia's finest. Hypnotic bassline on this one

There's much more but I can't think of any right now. Of course there's always some dirty dubstep:

Amazing bass work on this one. :dazzled:

You forgot the biggie:

 

 

It's all Wolsty, babeh! :charming: /fangirl.

 

I did! :bigcry:

 

But yeah, this song has an awesome bassline too. :wacky:

 

There's someone on Youtube who tried playing the bassline on clarinet, and they messed up a few times and it was a bit odd, but it was pretty cool. :lol:

I can't hear basslines.

Seriously, if I concentrate, I hear a bass-note here and there, but after listening to a song, I couldn't sing the bassline. A bit strange, non?!

TURN YOUR SPEAKERS UP VALERIE. LOUDDDDDD.

THAT DOESN'T HELP, SARAAAAA!

 

It's some sort of disorder, I guess. :(

I can't hear basslines.

Try adjusting your volume so that bass is louder than treble.

Bahahahahaha. :lol:

^rofl rofl rofl

 

Bahahahahaha. :lol:

 

thank you. thank you very much. i'm here all week!

Uhmm, who is Guy Berryman? I've never heard of him. :wacko:

Yeah, that would help, if I wasn't too lazy to change the setups of my amp all the time. :(

Pixies - Break My Body

Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There

Joy Division - A Means To An End

The Fall - Blindness

Massive Attack - Girl I Love You

I've already made a few posts but I'm going to go in another direction here. I'm sure some people will think this is lame but I've always loved the bassline in this.
