➡️ After my analysis of "Gula" by First Fragment, I was immediately told by you all that Dominic 'Forest' Lapointe was playing someone else's parts, and not his own! Unanimously, I was urged to check out the bass video for "Omnipresent Perception" by Beyond Creation for another look at Dominic's magical fretless playing. WOW! In this video, I check out his bass play-through from his tenure in ‪@BeyondCreationMetal‬ and dissect his array of modern bass techniques including two-handed tapping, sweeping arpeggios on fretless bass, his masterful implementation of muting techniques (which is why his playing sounds IMMACULATE), his plucking position choices that change his tone, the floating-thumb technique, his effortless plucking style, and much more. Is there anything this guy can't do?

I took lessons with Forest during the pandemic. Here's what i learned. He's an absolute virtuoso. He plays as fast the albums are recorded with ease and can switch techniques on a dime (no camera tricks). He keeps the index finger planted for barring (keeps 4ths in tune on fretless). He makes you practice left hand stretching, think across 6 frets in first position (i think his bass is 35" scale). His practice routine is a serious workout. And he's super nice and not arrogant at all.

@chacehorsman2615 8 месяцев назад

This song was one of the first steps towards me loving death metal and fretless bass in it. And I love that you mentioned this song has an "anthem" feel to it. Even though its so fast and intense, there's a recurring melody. And its something I found myself humming in the shower and while I'm doing the dishes like I'm singing a familiar folk song. Its so nice to see someone else able to appreciate and validate how amazed I was by it a decade ago (fuck, I'm old lol). Thank you for your analysis and your channel, its been a huge help in motivating myself to start playing bass again.

The word "master" also jumped to mind just before you uttered it for the bridge/neck transition moves. I absolutely love the solo on this one. In my not so humble opinion, this is the best fretless bass performance you'll ever get to witness.

Muting while sweeping on bass is so hard. I got some exercises from Dominic and watched your video about it. It made me realize that it was the perfect technique for a difficult passage in one of my band's song. But I have to admit that I am using a fret wrap for now, I don't know when I will be able to do it without "cheating".

@TheGeniesis 11 месяцев назад

Finally, BC :) This is my one of two favourite songs (the second one is "earthborn evolution"). I was shocked when I saw it's possible to shred on fretless BASS guitar and play one big solo for the whole song :o Composition of solo section is also interesing - everyone has their own time to play sth. Dominic is a monster... I also, prefer BC over First Fragment, because is more melodic and less technical (still impossible to play for most ppl). I use 6-string bass - for me it's natural to use "bunny hooping" to mute strings. It's hard to keep them muted in any other way (I also use hand to mute lower strings when I play higher). Personally, I also prefer to use my index (sometimes middle) and pinky fingers to "catch" octaves. It's easier to play clean on fretless. Very good catch related to muting strings during tapping, I haven't seen that before!

The ghost castle on Super Mario Bros. 3 was the first time I heard fretless bass. I never knew it would work for metal until I heard this album back in 2012. "Social Disability" has the greatest breakdown I've ever heard, and the bass really makes it in my opinion. First Fragment is just next level, but for me this album takes the cake as an all-time great.

I started playing bass to tunes like Good Times by Chic or Any Micheal Jackson which required me to use the one finger per fret, fretting technique. So my pinky was and still is used much more than my index. I have more dexterity and control in my pinky than I do my index

@ScootsMcPoot 5 месяцев назад

And those small adjusments on fretless for intonation are different on every single bass. You not only habe to master the nuances of fretless, but you have to learn how your bass. reacts. Fretless is such a challenge to be even 5% as talented forest. You should already be extremely comfortable with theory before picking one up. They are so beautiful. Especially fretless piccolo

@TheConsciousEvolutionchannel 11 месяцев назад

The reason for the switching from neck to bridge is tension but probably not just for tone. When we play different styles especially going into heavier music and doing sideways picking hand type of picking higher tension is better than on an upward or backwards sweeping pick motion with your fingers. The difference intentions when picking the strings in different ways or configurations sometimes is not only about tone but efficiency of playing. I have an interesting finger-picking style that I've developed over thirty-seven years of playing. (Maybe I should say 30 I did quit for about five to seven years when I was raising my kids)

@dimitriid 11 месяцев назад

Another thing I notice is how most tapping is done by either floating the tapping hand or resting the thumb on the top of the fetboard but he doesn't do that: he actually places his thumb *behind the fretboard* which is probably why he can do so much extensive tapping so cleanly: he's got more leverage and more precision, which is probably something you really want if you try tapping notes on a fretless you're not going to be able to 'guess' the exact right intonation otherwise. Normally the switch in techniques would be quite a bit if he was plucking as any other bass player does but by having his hand in a more classical guitar position he can reach behind the neck to tap way more smoothly. He obviously thought about this plucking technique a lot and it seems to work pretty smoothly which well, kinda goes without saying when you constantly play so much crazy stuff.

I`m not personally a huge fan of Forest, he clearly is very technically gifted and there were parts here where it almost sounded like a totally different instrument then bass, but his playing style feels more technical then emotional(that might not totally be his own fault it could be a compositional issue) to me even when there is melody it doesn`t seem to be for the emotion of certain parts of this song atleast. I do personally prefer someone like Jarred Smith from Archspire, who i feel is almost as technical and i think he gets more emotion into his bass lines.
