Bass

 

Honey, please don't pay too much attention to all the babble you have to put up with.  You have such a genius ear that you might think that babble is music, and it gets to you.  Figure out a way not to let all that chatter get a reaction from you.

That's a happy solo, Honey.  Sounds like you're adding theatrics to your riffs.  You must have practiced that part.  I like that bass player.  He's punchy, and works better with Dekar.  For your music, you shouldn't have a soft touch bassist.  They don't necessarily have to dig in with all their strength, but be elastic like hard rubber.  An energetic bassist for energetic music.

Someone like Tal Wilkenfeld would have the skill to lock in with Dekar, but popping out isn't her style.  She seems to be more into her own stuff, like most people are nowadays.  Having a permanent lineup is something from the past.  It's a good thing therefore you're in Nashville.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

111.  Say, "Praise be to Allah, who begets no son and has no partner in dominion, nor any need to be protected from humiliation: yea, magnify God for God's greatness and glory!"

The Night Journey 17:111
