Bass > Fishman Platinum Pro (or preamp of your choice) > QSC K.12.2, you’ll never look at the bewildering choice of amps/cabs again.

I’m certainly up for that.

Happily researching Icelandic New Wave at the moment, filling some gaps in my gappy collection. anyway here's Þeyr a band that includes my favourite drummer of all time Sigtryggur Baldursson...

Don’t mess up that beautiful Jaydee with silly LEDs.

Modeselektor, Mouse on Mars, The Black Dog, Plaid and B12. I’m preoccupied with Venetian Snares and Nurse With Wound at the moment.

Any Faust experts here who can recommend an album of theirs to start with.

Let us know when you are in the south east playing.

Love BofC and Autechre. They played at a venue I used to work at and all the old trad rock crew were dissing them something awful, I thought they were superb. No lights, completely blacked out stage, only sounds to listen to, brilliant live experience.

Heh, I thought this might be a thread about farting in taxis, I’ll start my own entitled Lift Farting.

Pre-Skindred Benji, this track is superb...

Just listening to Neu!'s first album, never listened to them before, excellent. I had no idea that the marvellous Negativland were named after one of the tracks from this album, anyway, any excuse...

P.S. Make yourself a promise: Keep buying loads and loads of different basses, in fact so many, so regularly, you don't have time to learn how to play any of them. Fixed.

That's one of the best Tiny Desks.

Ohhhh, my first Bass serious bass was a Jaydee just like that but in black... Gas.

But it’s Trouble Funk, they get a pass.

I have to say I don’t no much about it apart from the performances but I do now!

Put ‘tiny desk concert’ into the YouTube search and then spend about a month watching some great performances. I’ve found lots of new music via Tiny Desk as well as watching some faves, here’s my current fave, “Say what!”

See, that would be amazing. As an ex (as if) train spotter I spent an inordinate amount of time with my head stuck in the annually published Combined Motive Power books. These books listed all Locomotives and electric/diesel multiple units in operation across the UK rail network. There is something about such taxonomic tomes, the layout, the systems of classification (don’t get me started on Dewey), just information presented in such a fashion gets me quite moist! But seriously, do it, I’d certainly love to work on such a project. Reference material *swoon*

That’s a dangerous thought... excellent.

Thanks SB, I thought it was a band!

I Googled this and just got a paintball venue, who or what is Pantherairsoft?

In all seriousness I was wondering that, if I could just add more... There are very few people I’d discuss my (potential) massive bottom with. Actually I’m in no doubt at all that the ACGs can easily create the sounds I’m after.
