CityandColour Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 I think he's wrong too. The only songs I can really hear it in is DMB's "Crush" and "The Space Between." But, I was just thinking... maybe that's why it's called a "bass" drum. Hey, Eric, didn't you like the bassline for Incubus's "Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Long Song)?"

mycdplayerisbroke Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 yeah it was cool i heard like a live version of it with no sax solo my friends who like incubus say that the new guy sucks but idk oh and the bass drum... idk prolly not becaue bass is like a sound not an instrument you know? (well it is but...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityandColour Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Hmmm... I think that "Deep Inside," has a similar bassline. Keep in mind, I think. I don't know much about bass.... I have to agree with your friends on the new bass player. I think he sucks. He just doesn't look right with them. They need to bring back the old bass player, who I think is actually my favorite bassist.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityandColour Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Fuck, I forgot another good one... Led Zeppelin - The Crunge Actually, you can kind of notice the bass drum/bass thing there. Especially in the beginning of the song when the bass comes right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewl* Posted February 17, 2004 Share Posted February 17, 2004 nice list man! Everything's not lost has such a sweet bass line. And the radiohead basses that you listed are brilliant. Can you play the paranoid android one? Cos i've been trying to play it for a few weeks... ok, actually, a few months. lol And man, that bass is the devil! In honesty, I'm actually a guitarist, but I occasionally play the bass. This has worked to my advantage I guess, because I can play lead guitar pretty well so I've transferred the technique across to the bass. I don't find it all that hard, but when I started learning the lead guitar part it took me a few months to get it nailed - now I can play it blindfolded. Don't give up - keep going and eventually you'll get there. The bass is probably the hardest part of the song! :lol: when i was scrolling down fast, it looked like that blue arrow was going up that .....dogs butt....hmmm...whats his name.....

I doubt you will have heard of it, (since 99% of the UK's population haven't heard of it).

Valleyboy Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Ah, this thread owns. it's been a long time since i last posted here... so yea, my favourite songs to play... Radiohead - i might be wrong (cool lil bass line. not as cool as the guitar riff, but still...), and where i end and you begin (it's soo awesome. i cant even describe it). Blur - girls and boys (man, i have so much fun playing it... it's scary) And the big winner... The Strokes - Reptilia. Gotta luv it. seriously.

CityandColour Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Yeah, I guess John Paul Jones was a pretty great bassist. I noticed that I like a lot of the basslines from DMB. (Stefan Lessard) Particularly "Crush." Remember how I told you about the bass/bass drum thing, Eric? It's actually really noticeable there if you ask me.

CityandColour Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 No, I checked with some more musicians online, and the bass player works together with the drummer to keep the beat, even though you might not hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
