Last day of my unusual bass instrument: a Bass Ukulele. Fits in the overhead. Sounds kind of like an oud so I made all those oud-y lines with it.

Plugging away on the road still with my unusual bass instrument. This is one with a unique approach to meter and rhythm. Don’t count, just dance. https://soundcloud.com/thoughtfaucet/100-026a?in=thoughtfaucet/sets/100daysofbass More info at 100 Days of Bass home.

Getting ready for a trip where I’ll be away from my recording toys for a little bit. So today’s is the test run recording into Garageband for the iPad. Must say it’s a pretty fun way to sketch out a bassline. https://soundcloud.com/thoughtfaucet/100-021a
