Fretless Harmonic Slide Funk Rock Bass Grooves
Вставка

- Fretless fun with sliding harmonics, double stops, heavy fingerstyle, palm muting and other groovy stuff on my Cortex bass. To slide a fretless harmonic you just have to push it down and let your fingers and imagination go, so much fun! I’m digging in hard at parts to make the bass rattle, love that natural gain of just strings and wood vibrating without frets. Going a bit wild towards the end with some improv and palm muting, my videos are realtime performances without edits so what you see is what you get. I pick out the take with most feel and attitude above a flawless one, expression is key. No plugins were used, just bass, amp and pedals. Some volume leveling is done in mixing, I also added a few drum crashes and fills after the performance since I always improvise a bit on these pieces, besides that, I aim to keep things as pure and transparent as possible.
This fretless Cortex bass has a flamed maple fingerboard, chocolate maple neck, walnut body and spalted maple top. It’s loaded with a Nordstrand Dual Coil pickup with 2-band Glockenklang preamp and is strung up with Ernie Ball Super Slinkys. The fingerboard has a thin layer of epoxy and compound radius, the wing reaches the 28th position, that’s a high b. I used 3 pedals: a Darkglass Hyper Luminal compressor, a Rodenberg 707b clean booster and an Ebs Multicomp, no digital post-processing. The signal was recorded with the DI from my Eich T-1000 amp with a Focusrite Scarlett into my laptop in Cubase. Drums are made with Addictive Drums, mastering was done with Ozone. More funky tunes in the works, thanks for watching!
Always a good day when Remco uploads! 👍
Its trippy. Its funky. Its groovy as hell.
Its signature style HENDRIKS.
Well that is how to play the bass
I'm a bass player of five years and I love watching peoples talent
You're talented wow
all over the bass locked in and playing like a drummer with strings you've opened my eyes wow
By the way fretless awesome so hard to play especially no markins 100 % perfict
Great stuff! Unlike most youtube 'bassists,' you don't spend all your time widdling away above the twelfth fret but play proper basslines. Coupled with your wicked right hand technique, it's all very listenable.
Can't widdle away above the 12th fret if you don't have frets.
@@SgtZaqq Ok then. Widdling away above the octave.
And don't care about memes.
Ничего не понимаю в технике исполнения, но слушать очень приятно ☺️ Спасибо!
UA-cam loop function engaged. 👍 Never a wasted second when on this channel. Always a true pleasure to listen to the best.
My baby grandaughter enjoys remco on loop too...
Honestly how do you not have 10 millions subscribers? Your bass lines are a go to when wanting to show people how to play bass properly. Amazing work
You make the perfect extremes of surfy funky.
Other people have an aperitif when they get home from work. I restore my spirits with some Remco grooves! Thank you!
All notes in time. How it sounds brilliant
What a groovy funky tune. Love those slides lower on the fretboard, such a unique sound only a fretless bass can make
It's like watching a masterclass on plucking hand muting. So clean. Something to strive for.
Your lines always make me smile. That was too cool!!
Never enough new content from Remco. So good.
Great play as usual!
You are playing with such a unique style ... very inspiring! Thank you!
I love this bass most of all the ones you've played! Such great sound.
Great melody and harmonics!
Thumping thumb working overtime on this one! Excellent!!
I just love the tone of old spalty !
It's smooth.
It's got groove.
Every time.
Cool stuff! Serious Mick Karn vibes, especially the first few seconds.
I appreciate your style. distinct groove and heavy right hand
You are the Buckethead of bass! You are so innovative 🤘!!
Wow, I had to subscribe as soon as I saw this clip. It's off the charts 🎉
Your videos really live up to your channels name. Love it!
Man I really enjoyed this one! Long time listener.
Groovy man, keep on rocking brother 👍🏆.
Thanks for the music. Great job!
Amazing as usual, just with the bass you make songs that are authentic auditory works of art it is notorious just by watching the video and listening to the songs that you put a lot of effort and training into composing each song, even though you are not as famous as other musicians in my opinion yours skill surpasses many, because his compositions sound very good to the listeners bringing many different feelings in each of the songs but that mostly causes a feeling of calm, comfort along with a relaxing sensation. In many moments of stress, anger or frustration, listening to his songs has been of great help. My favorite instrument is the bass and the thing that most influenced me to love the bass more than other instruments was listening to your music, so thank you so much for being such a talented bass player, thank you so much for writing such rich and amazing music, and thank you for masterfully showing the beauty of bass.
(please ignore spelling errors, I'm Brazilian and I'm still learning about English.😅🙂)
I agree 100%!!
Nicely word comment sir, well thought out and on point.
bass playen is so good
I love the simplicity in most of your ditties (not to be confused with simple or easy) too many 'solo' bass licks are just not enjoyable as music
inspiring as usual sir keep the grooves comin
Finally I've got the time to listen to latest Ramco's groove! Perfect to accompany this warm summer in the southeast corner of the world!
Instantly subscribed. Hopefully more groovy tunes like this.
Wow!! Your style is so unique, very beautiful... exceptional. Congratulations... great talent, thanks for sharing. All the best, Tony👍
tune is awesome
such stank holy smokes, epic as always Remco!!
fantastically
This is impressive.❤
Super cool
このベーシストはベースの鳴らし方をよく心得ていますね。このベーシストのように指の腹を使ってピッキングするとコシがある音になり、ファンクにぴったりでしょう。
妙なエフェクターを使うよりよっぽど説得力のある音になります。いずれにせよ、センスがあれば、場合によってピッキングを使い分けるでしょう。
Groovy and funky, have a good time all the time
That's a bass player! Excellent clean as a whistle.
Groovy !!
I’ve Always played bass with thumb and fingers on my right hand. I wondered at times if I’ve been playing wrong but I see you doing it and I realize it’s OK if I play with my fingers and thumbs because you do it and you’re such a remarkable player. Thanks!
The man never fails to Freak'n Rock it.....!!!
Heerlijk gespeeld Remko!!
Buutee of a bass. Very interesting style.
Impressive!👍I love it! I'm going to keep watching his fingering so I can become a better bassist. Thank you. 🙏
Nice spalted wood!
I wish I could approximate your right hand technique. You are an absolutely insane player
👏👏👏😍😍
god damn that's so good
Very gooood
EPIC
Much cool jammin.
Крутяяяк!!!! ❤️
Those harmonics around 1:50 haven't definite "Come Together" sound. Awesome playing wow, glad FB led me here!
Nothing better than coffee in the morning with remco!
This song honestly does sound just right with a cup of coffee in your hand.
yet another remco banger
Remco !!! Straight Funky bro!!!!🤯
🔨 молоток.
Incredible, Black Sabbath riffs meet Les Claypool's groove. Very, very good !
You're badsss homie.....ffs.....straight fire
Do one bass playing video with the flanger sounds awsome
Hey brother, great jams on the fretless bass and I really love the sound you can only get from a fretless. Anyway, I have a fretless Michael Kelly dragonfly acoustic and was wondering if you could do a jam on a fretless acoustic sometime. All the best!
Really reaaally appreciate the live performances of each of your songs remco! Keeping real music alive and well! Cheers from New Jersey U.S.A.🎉
Love to know how frequently you work on this incredible stuff every day, Remco. Also like to know how frequently you watch uploads from Tony Franklin.
This is the Best Bass,s Ever😂
Remco is the Groove Technician.
❤❤❤
I love your work, Remco. Pleased tell us what effects you're using here and in general. Thanks man.
Glad you dig it Rigel! Here I'm using 3 pedals: a Rodenberg 707b clean booster, a Darkglass Hyper Luminal compressor and an Ebs Multicomp to add some gain at parts. That's the heart of my setup, besides that I have a Boss OC-2 octaver and a Walrus Audio D1 delay on my board. It's what I use in general and on most videos as well, I don't use plugins and record the signal with the DI from my Eich T-1000 amp. Cheers!
Unreal…….
Dig it. Very Claypool 'esque
I think the difference in technique between Les Claypool and REMCO is that the former uses his thumb and the rest of his fingers to play and REMCO is all fingers... I think REMCO's style is one of the best I've heard on a fretless electric bass... I also love Les Claypool's technique and style... but he's very freaky (really)...
Sheeesh
Τι να πω; Να πω ΕΑΜ ΕΛΑΣ ΜΕΛΙΓΑΛΑΣ;
Θα το πω
👍👍👍💪
never fails to impress
O homi é bão
Funky as fu?k, which is excellent 👍
💜Bikini Bottom Funk🎸
Muito amigo
Monstr
КрутоОООО
You would definitely be a great FUNK challenge for Davie504, battle time!
OMG
little bit of “if you have to ask” in there!!
While I'm listening it.. am I inside the SpongeBob cartoon?😄
明らかに上手く、人間離れしつつある。普通はミュートの手間を考えてアルアイレ奏法しません。しかもそこにナチュラルハーモニクスを入れるあたり、もはやモンスターと言えるでしょう。DVD出して。
I was listening at 1.25x youtube speed without notice it, for me the song got better, try it
🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Watskebeurt with the dredds?
Did you do the facebook ad i just saw
I've never done any facebook ads, so that wasn't me for sure. I only post on the Remco's Groove Lab page or my personal profile on fb. I'll be uploading a new funky fretless video here tomorrow though!
Any chance to download bass-only track ?
I have some isolated bass tracks available on Bandcamp, this one's not there yet but I'm planning to release more so I'll look at including it. First have a release coming in March so think it'll be there around April. Cheers!
Can you play with gloves on? Different muted sound!?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏🙏
Sound like with flanger
What kinda bass is that?
It's a Cortex Bass!
Havent watched him for some quite sometime, but the dreads are missing. . .
The only problem with this groove is that it doesn’t go on for days and days and days……
