Solo Bass Archives - Page 33

It wasn’t long ago we featured Andres Rotmistrovsky, who blows us away with his solo bass arrangements. Andres recently shared his latest – an arrangement of “Seminare”, a tune by the Argentinian band Seru Giran written by Charly Garcia.

Greg Bagley, a bassist from Seattle, wrote this original tune, entitled “Flight of Neptune”. Greg is playing his Ken Lawrence bass in this video, and included a slideshow at the end of this video with the original recording of the tune playing over it.

Bassist Scott Mulvahill first wrote this tune, “Leaving Home”, five years ago when he left for college. He recently added a bit to the composition and shared the update. Thanks, Josh, for sharing this one with us!

Here’s a funky clip of Danish bassist Lars Danielsson grooving hard with just him, a drum machine, and his trusty old Fender Jazz. Danielsson effortlessly floats between styles, and wraps it up by playing around with the last lick from Donna Lee.

Bassist Danny Fox sent us a few of his videos, each showcasing his musicianship (and cool Zon Hyperbass). This one, “The Meaning of Times Passing” caught our ear especially. Danny writes, “[These songs] are self-composed solo bass tracks and are played on my Zon Hyperbass. I was very honoured to have Michael Manring say that he liked them. [This] one...

Andres Rotmistrovsky adapted a tune entitled “She’s Mine” by Fito Paez for solo bass. The performance is just stellar, and dig the tone!

Whenever a Dani Weber video hits our radar, I always find myself impressed not only with his bass playing, but also his compositions. Here, Dani performs his solo bass piece “Don’t Look Too Far”.

Yesterday, we featured a performance by Average White Band, performing “Cut the Cake” live. Today, another AWB tune – “Pick up the Pieces” – this time performed as a solo bass looper arrangement by Nathan Williams.

Berthold Basten‘s love for his Godin fretless bass inspired him to write a tune. We thought you’d enjoy it too.

Bassist Eric Czar recorded this beautiful, multi-tracked all-bass composition, using his 6-string fretless. The story behind the bass is interesting too… Eric took an old Ibanez SR-406 6-string bass he bought for $300 and ripped the frets out himself. His advice? “Don’t be fooled by the price tag!”

Simon Hayden originally wrote and recorded “Soweto Groove” for fretless guitar. Then he recorded this double bass version. We may be partial, but we like the bass version best. (And here’s the first link ever on No Treble to a guitar video, if you want to see the original).

Wow! Someone shared this video with us and we couldn’t wait to post it. Bassist L?rincz Viktor recorded this video for the Guitar Titan competition on the NeoFM Bumeráng Radio Show.
