What Choons Yi Listening To?

Forums New posts
My mate's laddies band's latest (he's not one of the sexy black guys, he's the skinny punk bass player). They all have other groups - this one is purely to make money gigging and they restrict themselves to 40 dates per year.

Yeah, know what you mean. I played that other single of theirs till it fell apart one summer... with the great line:

(girl) I love you
(boy) I know

Dunno why now but it was a great summer!

To be expected, it's over 40 years old with ancient synths. It's of it's time.

Another Yello track for the pot

He's a pro. He studied bass & sound engineering and that's all he's ever done.

His old man is a musician too (not pro) ageing punk so he gave him plenty encouragement/support.

Starting this journey myself.

My daughter has started learning drums. Got her an electric kit and I've been learning a load of Taylor Swift songs so we can "jam". The things you do.

amazing how straightforward some songs are , Zombie by The Cranberries isnt too difficult

Yeah, if your into punk/indie/rock stuff it's one of the easiest and more enjoyable instruments to start with. Loads of iconic melodic bass lines that are simple to learn.

Gets a bit trickier when you want to start slapping the thing and going funky mind you.

That's brilliant and must be great fun. It doesn't matter how good the music is to start off with - it's quality time.

My 2 started on the bombarde 7 years ago. It's a Breton trad instrument, like a very loud oboe (it's not as dull as it sounds) . For the first couple of years I took lessons with them mainly to help them in the house with practicing but I had to drive them anyway and I was interested.

I've had a difficult year but the pair of them and their music have given me some brilliant moments - like when the younger, just turned 14, won an adult duet competition along with her "godfather" (who I taught bagpipes).

Problem with punk stuff is it tends to be fast lol

That's magic. She's a mile off any trophies just now but we will endeavour.

It's been good fun so far and like you say it'll be great memories down the road.

Well there's that.

Might be my big hands but I always found sliding my fingers around the frets of a bass at speed easier than keeping rigid chord formations on a six string guitar when I was learning.

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, I only went back a few pages.

Sleaford Mods are something else. I'd be interested to hear @Smurf opinion.

I can't decide if they are taking the piss or not.

They're definitely not taking the piss. When I first heard it I thought it was horrendous. I was down in Newcastle early December seeing Madness and a mate who is a Sleaford Mods fan was raving about it. He played it on a loop on the train down and the other lads thought it sounded great. Apparently Sleaford Mods genuinely love the song. PSB love the cover version and so much so they did a remix of the cover version! I'm still not convinced.... Have you heard their cover version of Yazoo's 'Don't Go'? It's genuinely excellent!
 
À brilliant piece of uilleann piping (Handel) that I rediscovered last night on YouTube.

I just heard "Don't Go". I'm not getting it at all. It's just as bad as the West End Girls cover.

Sleaford Mods intrigue me for some reason but musically, they are awful.
