Gabriel Severn just sent us a video he created along with Federico Malaman, Nick Campbell, Moto Fukushima, and Noah Denton (with some help from Israel Strom on keys). It is short, but it is sweet.

Here’s another fantastic lesson video by Federico Malaman. In this one, he takes two lines from “Donna Lee” and uses them to construct new bass lines. He calls it the "Stolen Bass Line lesson".

Federico Malaman has shared some stellar solo bass videos over the years, and he’s just done it again. Here he his performing one his favorite tunes by Sting: “Seven Days”.

I remember when Federico Malaman shared this video on Facebook back in 2015, but we never got the chance to share it here. Federico just revived this awesome (and funny) “Electric Bass Battle” with Anton Davidyants.

Federico Malaman shared this incredible video a few days ago of a live performance he did with Ricky Quagliato and Fabio Valdemarin. In this clip, they burn through Michel Camilo interpretation’s of “Perdido”.

Federico Malaman put together a fantastic lineup for this video for “Erratic”. This one grooves.
