Who Can Prove that they can play classical thump?

[MangholePlayer88]

Hey I've Been reading some of the other threads on "Classical Thump" and i found out that there were no recodrings of people playing it so yea i was wondering if peoplez could post some recordings of themselves playing it. heh just a lil curious :D

[jamesr]

Who cares classical thump sucks, it is a pissing contest for bass players. Maybe if Victor Wooten would have spent the time on making one good song instead of trying to out play everyone someone other than bass players would have heard of him.

^^ You're joking right?

There's a reason people go to his shows (not just his solo ones).
He's made tons of amazing songs, that are way easier than classical thump. Classical thump, as i said in some thread earlier, is just him showing off his speed, technicality, and talent.
The guy's one of the best in the world, I think he deserves to show off every now and then.

dude ...............tisk tisk and he's made plenty of good songs "Amazing Grace", "The Vision"

[joshmay]

the only people that *might* be able to play it all are jamh2000 and havic5.... a few others of us canplay the first bit....:cool:

[syrUsbilt]

*can play amazing grace*

Victor wooten is a great act.

[jamesr]

Well I can't argue taste, but sorry when I think of great songs amazing grace is not one of them.

[jamh2000]

Well I've got a fair bit down but that style of bass playing isnt really my thing. Donna lee on the other hand..mmmmm.

:D

yay! that's probably my favourite riff, and not too tricky :D

[Wintermute]

I can play 30 secs badly, and about 20 moderately well.

Also check out Zenergy, Resolution, and Yinin' and Yangin'

[:amaze:]

I can play 44 seconds along with the CD, but my computer is retarded so I'm having trouble recording it.




:amaze:

[ODIN947]

I officially cannot play Classical Thump.

[whiterice]

I can play the basic slap part, the open hammer part... but the double thumping is to hard :O

[victor_claypool]

[satans_fist]

I can play maybe the first 10 seconds heh.

[brent21]

i can play the first 25 seconds or something...after the first double thumping part

[FACELESSnotBASSLESS]

I would love some recordings as well. I've barely tried to learn it, because these posts have me so antimidated...

[YDload]

Hey, my dad's from Johnstown! I live sort of nearby, jamesr!

[TheLorax42]

wooten est muy bien

[TheLorax42]

!wooten es muy fantastico!

[satans_fist]

^^
Wooten is fantastic?

[OptimusPrimus]

^^^ very good.
Oh and overjoyed is a beautiful song. Originally by stevie wonder.
My head feels like a frisbee

[gaslight]

I can play the first 8 seconds :upset:.

[Rufiokicksass]

theres a guy at my school that can play it all the way through at full speed. he's also got like 3 3000 dollar custom basses. and a Ampeg 8x10 with a svt4pro head. and a saleen mustang. and really long hair. GAHHH OH MY GOD I WANT TO ABSORB HIS SKILL, MONEY AND MATERIAL ITEMS INTO MY BODY!!!!!

[Noushi]

Just kill him and eat his brain. After checking for degenerative diseases.

I mean hell, he'll be dead, you can just TAKE his money and stuff. It's totally kosher too. *nods* And kosher in the "not illegal" way, not the "jewish eating" way some people seem to think kosher means (Crazy jews...).

I've, sadly, never heard Classical Thump. I am in fact, sorely deprived of music. And money, so don't even think of suggesting I pay for a CD....

[HaVIC5]

Who said you had to buy the CD to listen to it? :confused: It's all about kazaa, man.

[4stringrules]

funnily enough the guy was asking for recordings... and no one has posted any... i can play like 30 seconds but i strugle at the fast double thumping part.

Peace

i've just learnt the intro bit and the chorus bit so far, i used the tab from mxtabs: Me and My Bass Guitar (http://www.mxtabs.net/tab_versions.php?path=Bass,v,2796,Victor+Wooten,Me +And+My+Bass+Guitar,83612)

that should help :D

PS - talking about me and my bass guitar, not overjoyed, please don't kill me :upset:

I can't use Kazaa until I figure out how to change the port it connects through. I'm on university internet and they cut you off if they detect Kazaa. *sigh*

thats a bitch ain't it. im living in campus right now as well. though they dont cut you straight off, i think they either limit the bandwidth or they reroute you up the ying yang, cos my max download speed is about 2KB/s on a 11Mbps connection. Mostly i get songs from home and transfer it into my laptop.

[Noushi]

Here (U.W.) they cut you right off. Blam, gone. It used to be they just put a limit on how much you could download... now they're getting strict.
