That interaction between what is clearly electronic music and real, creative and versatile bass-playing is fantastic. Indeed, no drummer as that would detract from the percussive bass-line and unique licks and runs. Great job!
Smooth as silk and Tempo that has the Music God"s swaying. I have be playing along with the video 30+ times and I am still getting the hair on my kneck to stiand up. I guess the balance was just right came into the our studio and thought it was all me. Sooooon!! thanks you for caring enough to help others like myself out. Cheers
So much thought in every note you just have your own technique you really are the best one on TH-cam. You have this way of making slap bass colorful fitting in the harmonics just so melodic and interesting
No bullshit, I’m just catching up, binging on your videos, but your channel has to be one of the best, if not THE best bass channel on TH-cam. I hope you make more videos
Thanks TT. I really appreciate your kind words. I'm getting back into making more videos. First one out on Sunday 7/1/23 Thanks for watching, Davey : )
Hands down this is the best bass video I've looked at since I've been looking for videos to watch I can listen to this guy day and night till I fall asleep man you rock keep wiggling those fingers brother
Man, you take the show. I've watched most of your videos and I can honestly say you're one of the best, if not the best, bassist on YT hands down. And, for sure, no one ever explained Mark King's tecnique better than you do...
Check out Gary Grainger and Marcus Miller for more stuff just like this. This might've even been Marcus's signature bass, sound and design was very similar.
That’s phenomenal. No matter how long you’ve been playing not everyone can be that smooth and percussive thumpin and pluckin (what Larry Graham called it!)
I wish!! That's very kind of you to say but isn't Larry Graham the God of slap? Or more like The Godfather of slap. Then there's Marcus Miller, Mark King, Victor Wooton, Les Claypool ....... Thanks for watching : )
You're welcome, Mike. Here's another couple of tracks without drums. th-cam.com/video/xGYggVdi_vY/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/0T4Bei-4hwo/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/rSqTWjhbTk0/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/Qgz4-gT1UVc/w-d-xo.html
I'm a bass player and was looking around on youtube for some new technics on slapping and came across your video I watch and found you to be very impressing. that was great editing the recording was very professional that piece was very well done, your bass playing I found outstanding my slapping is okay but not up to where I like to be I will watch for more of your video's to come thanks for inspiration (NICE!!)
Such a metronomic display of dexterity, cadence, nuance, deftness, touch and tone is a serendipitous boon for the singularly bass minded.
Thanks for such a great comment : )
What strings are you using? i have a Jazz Bass Deluxe, but still searching for the ideal tone.
The Breeze rotosound
Wow...words to match the video
Super fragilistic baby....
This doesnt even need drums so clean
Thanks Ian
Apart from the lyrics they're not entirely clean... Quite naughty! Unless I misunderstood and they are about cannibalism:-)
Yes they are a bit naughty : )

Not a drummer - but a bassist. And this is highly enjoyable.

You are a Monster !!!!! Constantly thumbing that Bass throughout. Kills finger style runs . Love it !!!!!
The best bass tone and playing I've ever heard!
Loving this composition, very nice. And of course the tone of that Fender MM bass...
I can see some Mark King 'DNA' in that slap.
Amazing...Very impressive, what a beautiful funky show!
Really enjoyed watching this. Your sense of groove is great.
This guy is too much ! This is the best stuff I ever witnessed
Check out Gary Grainger and Marcus Miller for more stuff just like this. This might've even been Marcus's signature bass, sound and design was very similar.
Thanks Ann
