Funky Fretless Fingerstyle Bass Grooves
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 гру 2022
- Here are some funky fretless grooves with thumb & fingerstyle plucking, slides, double stops, staccato ghost notes, vibrato and more fretless fun! Recorded in one take on a pre-recorded drum track, I first write the grooves and song structure just on bass, then record the drums in Cubase with Addictive Drums and jam with it for a while. From writing process to shooting the final take it usually takes around 3 weeks, the challenge of a single take performance is where it’s at for me, no edits.
I’m playing my custom fretless Cortex bass with a Nordstrand Dual Coil pickup and 2-band Glockenklang preamp, strung up with Ernie Ball Cobalt Slinkys. The bass has a walnut body, spalted maple top, flamed maple fingerboard and a chocolate maple neck. I added a spalted maple finger ramp temporarily for some sessions. Tuners are Gotoh, single string bridges and a compound radius give great action across the epoxied fingerboard.
The signal was recorded with my Eich T-1000 amp’s DI, straight into a Focusrite Scarlett into my laptop. I used 3 pedals: a Darkglass Hyper Luminal, a Rodenberg 707b booster and an Ebs Multicomp, no plugins or digital processing. Drum mixing and final mastering done in Cubase with Izotope Ozone 9. More in the works as always, thanks for watching & all the best for the new year!

Your approach at grooving is always incredible!
Nobody sounds like the way you play. 100% completely unique.
In your coment, Nobody means Remco. He's an entity.
Absolutely fantastic. Felt like it wouldn’t be out of place as the theme for some kind of retro video game.
Toejam and Earl!
It's earthbound for me
@@sean5028 The section starting at 1:24 sounds just like "Your Name Please" from Earthbound
Incredibly smooth slides, and the tone is perfect. Great work!

As someone who just started and had an immediate subconscious draw to playing with two fingers and my thumb it's nice to know it isn't necessarily wrong lol.
Remco, what a phenomenal piece, right hand coordination amazes me.. love your work and every video..

Started to catch on to the harmonics being peppered in, I love it! I must resist ripping my frets out.

Came for the fretless, stayed for the playing. Amazing! 👌
Every time I hit a wall with my jamming I always stick a few of Remco videos on and simply melt away :) Reminding how vastly versatile the bass is. Been watching for years now and still get blown away every time. Thanks man
Dude - ONCE AGAIN inspired. Thank you!
Been subscribed for years and your uploads never get old. I love the way you play, it's very inspiring and has caused me to switch up how I use my right hand while playing. Thanks for sharing what you do, keep it up man
Funky basslines always sound good fretless
Really smooth right hand coordination,so funky

Cheers from the Mountains of New York. I smell a bit of Jaco/Flea. I also smell a bit of you. Nice Stuff. Subscribed.
Amazing tone
Oh ma gosh, that's great! Really!
These skills and music sense...
I wanna play like that one day, but now I'm noob (about 2 years of playing), that only knows simple chords, pentatonic and some gammas. I have to exercise much more!
It's a good day when I see a new Remco video.
Remco, you're a goddamn Master! ❤
Amazing !!!
Amazing playing, thanks for the info in the description about the gear
Amazing sound, as always!
Masterpiece, totally unique and awesome sound

Awesome hard work put into the songs, awesome consistency. Chords plus the harmonics on top are sweet, do more of that.

Irmão é difícil eu encontrar um brasileiro que saiba quem é o Les ou o PRIMUS
Crazy triplets
AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Always killer...
Awesome
Truly unlike anything else is your style. I want to learn that lobster claw technique, but it's really uncomfortable for my hand. I wonder if my technique is bad or if my hand shape is just not compatible with that play style. Masterclass playing my dude! 🤘
bre- bre- bruuu
Big brain bass
Top demais parabéns abraços aqui do Brasil

Yes, it's made of the same spalted maple as the top. Cheers for stopping by!

Chawnkey
So he is pretty awesome but i cant find a tutorial on his technique, does he have any?
Чувак, ты великолепен.
I feel like i am playing Hill Climb Racing
Tell me Femco, do you have one of the lowest actions on that bass in the history of electric instruments? It sounds so huge, even out of my iPad speakers, and yet you hardly appear to be moving the fingers of your right hand at all.
same song
