Raslee Posted May 27, 2008 Author Share Posted May 27, 2008 Fe sure, totally Robbie Shakespeare , Lloyd P., - all dem riddim studio 1 kings that new what phat bass meant.....But Fam's is the Teacha! - seen! gwan keep dem fyah blazin fe I&I Jah ....Rasatafari [i]Becoming a bass player means being unable to listen to music without homing in on the bass part. This tendency can make it hard to relate to others. I look longingly at non-musician friends who seem to absorb music with blissful ignorance, responding to the song in its instrumental totality while I analyze the bass performance. But with reggae, we can get along. It gives those same friends a glimpse into full bass appreciation by dint of its undeniable bass heaviness. Whether or not you jive with reggae’s ganja-laced religious overtones, it has a uniquely dependent relationship on our instrument that you have to love. Reggae musicians crave bass—the kind that ripples through the body and stirs the soul. [/i] Blessed love Irie ites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
