Aaron Gibson: See The World
I received an advanced copy of Aaron Gibson’s new album, Horror Films and Sunday School, and I’ve been spinning it quite a bit. I’ve always loved Aaron’s music, and the addition of strings on this (plus some great guest appearances) make this one extra special. Our friends at BassTheWorld.com have debuted Aaron’s first video in support of the record, with...
The MAP with Elvin Bironien: Diamant
Elvin Bironien and his band, The MAP, released a killer video a couple of weeks ago, featuring the bassist’s arrangement of the Marius Cultier tune, “Diamant.” Be sure to check out Bironien’s solo!
Khruangbin: Live at Villain
Hey, it’s Saturday, so that means we can enjoy an extended video. Pitchfork Live shared this performance of Khruangbin from their live session at Villain in Brooklyn, which was in support of the band’s second album, . Laura Lee holds down the low end behind the band’s unique sound. Here’s the song list for the session: 00:38: Cómo Me Quieres...
Video Premiere: Linus Klausenitzer’s Bass Playthrough of Obscura’s “Diluvium”
We’re proud to premiere a new playthrough video from Obscura bassist Linus Klausenitzer for the title track from their latest album. Diluvium, which is defined as a great oceanic flood, is the fourth and final part of their conceptual cycle. It is also their most evocative, diverse and vibrant release to date. Klausenitzer’s 6/7-string fretless bass sound is an important...
YYNOT: Prelude/Freewill (Live)
It is great to see YYNOT gaining so much traction with fans. The band performed at The Diesel in Detroit on October 27th, and once again, they’re putting out some great concert videos. Here’s their performance of Rush’s “Prelude” and “Freewill”, which once again finds Tim Starace handling the gritty bass and the keys on the tunes.
Nicki Tedesco: Halloween Theme
It’s Halloween, so it’s only fitting that we present you with a creepy bass rendition of the theme from Halloween by Nicki Tedesco to set the mood. The bassist doubles on upright and electric basses, using a few effects to help summon the spirit of Michael Myers. Happy Halloween!
Scary Pockets: Don’t Worry, Be Happy
Scary Pockets keeps bringing the (re-imagined) hits with a new video. This time around, they take on the Bobby McFerrin tune, “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” Sam Wilkes is back on the bass with the band for this one, which is fronted by guest vocalist Nikka Costa.
Jesús Rico Pérez: John Francis (Michael Manring Cover)
Jesús Rico Pérez is back! In this new video, he takes on a recent tune by Michael Manring, which appeared on the official soundtrack for the film, Beneath The Bassline. Manring wrote the song as a dedication to Jaco Pastorius. You can check out the full soundtrack here, including Manring’s version.
Victor Wooten: KNKX Public Radio Performance
Back in August, we featured a video of Victor Wooten and Bob Franceschini performing “Funky D” live in the studio. Now KNKX has shared the full segment for us to enjoy.
Cory Wong: Juke On Jelly
We’ve seen Cory Wong’s impressive guitar skills on many Vulfpeck videos, as well as his own solo project. Now we get to hear him lay it down on the bass. In this track, Cory handles not only the bass, but also the guitar, percussion, piano/keys, and vocals, along with KATIS on lead vocals.
The Omnific: Objets de Vertu
The Omnific is an Australian progressive instrumental band with two basses and a drummer, so of course I dig it. Matt Fack and Toby Peterson-Stewart handle all of the melodic and harmonic content while drummer Jerome Lematua holds the beat. “Objets de Vertu” showcases the bassists’ prowess on the instrument while creating a cool groove.
Marcus Miller with Selah Sue: Que Sera Sera
Marcus Miller just shared an excellent video showcasing one of the tunes on his new album, Laid Black. Joined by vocalist Selah Sue, here’s their take on “Que Sera Sera.”
