[QUOTE=jamie_dunce]I can imagine in the future Gav will be playing in a really successful emo/hxc band and will be renowned for his playing! Oh, and his intelligence... and his sexyness... and.. huh? im flirting with him.. oh well! :amaze: :wave: :naughty: :thumb: :upset:[/QUOTE]

:lol: I'm determined to be the first really good hardcore/emo/indie/screamo bassist...by really good I mean find a way to bring slapping into emo music. :eek:

:p

If anything, I'll end up playing bass in a 311-like band because that's the music I can "groove" to best, which is my favorite thing to do. I can write good lines for hardcore and stuff like that, but I find grooving like P-Nut and Dirk Lance to be much funner. It's more like jazz than anything else, and I get to slap and groove. :cool:

hey man ever need jam band recommendations just hit me up

good luck with that :thumb:

I wasn't going to start a thread about this cause it would be pointless so... When you people here write bass lines? how exactly do you come up with them? Do you play with someone else you plays different instrument(guitar, drums etc)? Or is there other ways you come up with them?

I just fu'ck around on my guitar, play classic bass lines or scales until I come up with a different variation. All pieces are based off of a Major or Minor scale, so you need to know a lot of scales and modes to come up with different bass lines to suit the additude, feel, and style of the piece you perform. I am right now working on a bass line, for a whole entire piece, that starts off on D Minor. The way you know that it is based off of D Minor is the key signature of the bass line is the same as D minor's key signature, along with 1 or 2 accedentals, or notes that contradict the key signature. But the neccessary notes, which are played a majority of the time, go in the key signature, notes that aren't played as much, or accedentals, are marked with a flat sign, sharp sign, or natural sign.

Sorry that I'm rambling. Once I start, I can't stop can't stop can't stop.

Thats a good idea, i already know how to play in Key but i can never get a decent line going. Maybe i should try different variations of the scales and all that. So if i was working on something fast but good should i just make up a line using a spin off of the scale and make it a lot faster?

hey
bye im off.

/lame

/pointless spam

I usually dcik around whith something else playing in the background low and stuff comes that way, usually i find myself building around scales and modes but they're only tools and so your not being a tool if you step outside of that scale (sorry for bad joke)

Hey whats up?

[QUOTE=*punk_rock_sophie*]oh i really want a djembe! how much was it (cause i know they can be quite expensive) and where did you get it??[/QUOTE]

^That doesn't work for me..

It's all worked out pretty cheap as well. I could get that bass, delivered to me and all, for around teh same price as a MIM Standard Jazz.

Check the link now Kili.
