Bass Comp 26: Voting Thread!
(Reference this (http://www.sputnikmusic.com/forums/showthread.php?t=457463) thread for the pictures and rules.)
Description of the competition: This competition is an amalgamation of several others we've had in the past, in order to come up with an original idea. Here's what you do: write an original piece in the style of another bassist or artist. Your piece must be written to one of the two pictures; a theme of them if you will.

"Abstract"
It's based on Picture #2. I drew a lot of inspiration from Manring on this one - altered tuning, harmonics, and I think the progression is very Manring. Also, that repeated low note is pretty much straight out of Helios.
This is for the first abstract picture.

I explored another idea that came to me when looking at number one. It's very influenced by the music McCoy Tyner in that it has quartal harmony over a sus7b9 chord (I adore this chord) and harmony in fourths.
EDIT: Here's the lead sheet, if anybody is interested. I took some liberties playing it.

Crazy Noise 2
Based on Abstract 1
My classic Morello influence is there in effects.
It gets a bit distorted on the chord part, but you get the idea.

Bass Comp 26.
Based on picture three, the one with the buildings. I started off trying to capture a sort of Nine Inch Nails industrial feel to get across the feeling of the societal machine. This slowly transformed into a bit more busier piece than I wanted, but it might actually keep you listening. It still has that sort of laid back feel, but not quite as ambient as I want. I might change this entry before the due date, but I'm not positive.
my first entry into a creative comp
song is "space rock"
