Franklin Peredo: Funktopia Robotica
Franklin Peredo never ceases to amaze me. His latest video is for the song “Funktopia Robotica” and it features the bassist’s crazy right hand technique to make the music sound like the title suggests.
It’s not that he’s strumming, thumping, popping and tapping – it’s that he does it so fluidly you forget about the techniques and listen to the music.
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
You can’t say enough about Peredo’s right hand. I have studied his work over the years and practiced like a fiend. Try it. Try to play this song.
Yeah bro, his right hand technique is incredible!
Amazing!
So. Damn. Funky! I love it!
It’s his thing—- so unique, way awesome— close your eyes, and the various independent stuff going on sounds like a bassist, funky clav, and drummer-
