Omar Vazquez Castro & Simon Sammut: Mar
Bassists Omar Vazquez Castro and Simon Sammut teamed up for a bass duo composition called “Mar”, which translates to “sea.”
“Omar composed the track and plays bass chords and harmonics. I play the fretless and upright bass,” Sammut explains.
The track reflects the feeling of the sea with an ambient atmosphere, thanks to the harmonics and tones each player pulls from their instrument.
