The next Soundcloud collaboration on the way

The next song that will appear on Soundcloud featuring me on the bass, will also be mixed and mastered by yours truly.
Using the Studio One DAW from Presonus and a lot of different plugins from Slate, Magix, MAÄG and Izotope.

The first mix is sent for review…

Episode 78 of the Jackass Penguin Show’s Jazzy selection features the track “Never Turn Me Down” by the Peter Bennborn Project with me on the bass.

 

Etyd

Working on an Etude for low B 5-string bass.

When finished this will go from the lowest lows to the highest highs of the 5 string bass through all keys. Hitting two major chords on the way up and two minor chords on the way down. Did find some interesting fingerings working on this. When finished it will be available for download.

This week I had the opportunity to work on two different Soundcloud collaboration projects. First song, a jazzy tune in 6/8 featuring both vibraphone and clarinet. Not the everyday instrumentation these days. It was great fun to play in something else than the standard 4/4 time. I found a groove that worked really good with the drums. For this song I used a straight forward clean sound, using only the FloorQ compressor when recording. More effects was used on the second song. This track is also the first with a new collaborator on Soundcloud. Since it’s a track in the “jazzy lounge” genre I aimed for a more synthy sounding bass, running the bass through the B7K distortion from Darkglass Electronics and through some heavy filtering from the Wonderlove by 3leaf Audio. Released in the cloud soon…
