I’m not sure where time goes, but
it goes fast. I looked at my blog and I noticed it‘s been five days since my last post. I’ve been working on bass lines for three songs that I’m recording in the studio.
The bass lines were all over the
place at first. They still are, but I’m getting a better feel for what works
and what doesn’t. The object is to play something interesting without it being too
busy. For some people, that’s like talking without cussing. Cussing is flashy,
busy talk. It’s the quick hit, the jolt that emphasizes. Well, I can’t have
that with these bass lines. I need something smooth that isn’t necessarily
repetitive. Not an easy task considering the songs are kind of repetitive. I
wish the songwriter (me) would have thought about that when he wrote the
songs.
The
bass player will have to save the day again. God bless the freakin’ bass
player.
