That was pretty amazing, very tasteful and sounded like more than just a bass player on his own

I've seen that before, I really like it. Definitely the most melodic slap I've ever heard.

Old but gold. He is one of the very very few who doesn't totally fail at that style.

Virtuoso? That guy?

Hardly.

He's technically proficient, but I would hardly call him a virtuoso.

Phalanx
08-17-2008, 05:47 PM
and he seriously loves us all talking about him. Heck, half the reason he comes back is just to see what we've been saying about him.

Well, we dunno what else the guy does. Virtuoso seems to be such a relative term these days. Some people actually considered Cliff Burton a virtuoso...

Not a bad wee tune, pretty cool.

That's ok, I think of you the same way.

Plus, I'm not an @ss_hole like you.


In fact, I'd actually like to meet you to know how different you are from your online version.

Not everyone that browses bass forums is a bassnerd. I hate 99% of it. Virtuoso anything is pretty much a party trick to me - it's good for a laugh or some brief entertainment, but it doesn't mean much more to me than that.

That said I love bass when it's applied the right way, but there are too too many ways to apply it that, to be quite honest, make my ears bleed.

At least Nathan Hughes can pass as a bassist/songwriter. Seth sounds like he just needs to get a guitar.

In case you missed it, I was making a joke based on everyone's assumed collective hatred of Nathan Hughes.

AND if you think Seth Horan can write good music I'm not surprised you missed that one Rabi :p

I didn't know that we hated Nathan Hughes? Aside from his awkward vocal melodies and lyrics that could use a bit of work, I think his voice compliments his unique approach to rhythmic solo bass.

Not really. Take away the novelty of a bassist singing, and Nathan Hughes doesn't have all that much appeal.

And Seth writes much more creative bass lines.

I find Nathan does a better job of filling out the sound by himself.

Listening to Nathan: "That's cool that he's doing something new with that style of bass."

Listening to Seth: "That sounds disgusting. Buy a guitar."
