My favorite live musical performances

[Luna]

If your'e talking Air and basslines how can you omit

?

4:40



So subtle yet entrancing.


Their most orgasmic song to date.

@Luna you're young but you're taste in music is mature. Air is amazing.

Cherry Blossom Girl is so peaceful.

I like the variety of instruments air uses. Reminds me of cursive and the arcade fire. I heard everything from pan flutes to xylophones on the neighborhoods series TAF recorded.

Cursive's bass player plays a stand up bass, like a boss.

Yes, Cherry Blossom Girl is fun, delicious, breezy.
And yes, they are not shy with experimenting. It frustrates me because I fall in love with most of their songs and keep trying to find a successor to that one style, for instance, How Does It Make It You Feel. Granted their Virgin Suicides album is similar and heavily influenced by Pink Floyd, but I can't get enough.


You like yourself some Massive Attack? They were very versatile as well.
This song is so masterfully crafted, ethereal yet ominous. Makes me feel like I'm a double agent government spy professional assassin.
I can't really express this track, it's just too much.

This is my first time hearing massive attack. I didn't expect it be what it was. It starts out with a break beat. I expected some b boys to start breaking. I like this.

 

[Kokoro]

Ron Carter. Nuff said

 

[Doobie Doo]

My man was almost as tall as his bass.

Word. I think thats how he was able to get that deep growly tone. He could easily handle his bass

 

[platinum f1a$k]

ain't it funky

See Jaco has yet to impress me. Maybe he'll grow on me someday

I think its just his style thats all. I prefer a bass player with groove that lays down the harmony over someone like Marcus Miller, Victor Wooten etc. any day

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

How the fukk y'all gonna have a thread on basslines without damned near any funk, R&B, or soul in that shyt (i.e. Black folk)








And the fact that y'all left the GOAT out of here is so disrespectful.

This band was ahead of its time. They were making dark, smooth, sexy music before it got hot. They also had electronic, hip hop, rock, and blues influences in their music.

Bethany Gibbons can drink my blood whenever she wants. I'm pretty sure she's a vampire to be able to write and sing these dark fukking songs.

I don't know why Cowboy Bebop didn't get Portishead to make the soundtrack to the show or movie.





"Give me a reason to love you. Give me a reason to be a woman. I just want to be a woman." Bethany is hard on hoes for real.

You posting Portishead, without posting their dopest bassline.

 

[King Crimson]

This is one of my favorite live performances. The lead singer is wearing a leg brace. That's why his pants are so wide and he's barely moving. If you look closely you can see it creasing his pants. He's also on hella pain killers. Look at how spaced he looks when the camers zooms in on his face. He's also mumbling.

Back to the bass player. Lmao, this nikka goes ham. He's wearing a white t shirt and blue long sleeve under it. Just watch him. Look how hard he's feeling himself while singing the harmonies when the video starts. Lmao, if you listen closely he's singing louder than the lead vocalist.

It gets better. Hes the only one moving on stage. And he moves all over the fukking stage and into everyone's space.

I miss and love 90s indie rock so much. Weezer, mmhmm.

Sharp is my favorite out of the revolving Weezer bassists. I was hoping he'd rejoin the group at some point and they'd drop Shriner. I think he's an integral part of their early success. You can tell when he left because although Blue and Pinkerton have two different sounds, there's still a style and aesthetic that isn't present in any of their later stuff.

you aint post 1 single BLACK Bass player

Haven't heard of this dude. Good stuff.
