I'm the 10 day delivery guy, lol. If you read the description of the gig, I offer to deliver much sooner, you just have to tell me when you need it :( I've always been a huge fan. Cheers, Davie!
he stayed in the pocket all while bringing the song to modelly interesting places. he also infused a vintage Spacey futuristic and modern feel. Feel free to slap all you want to but that guy makes hits.
I liked number 5. The double thumb was slammin. It was great with just the bass and drums. I think some of the more expensive ones after that were trying to keep it simple so that you could add more on top of the track. I don't know if you specified what you were doing with the track or just left it up to them. But for example I'm pretty sure bass player number 9 intentionally left room for other instruments on the track. Any of those three bass lines could have had some guitars or keyboard or whatever you want on top if you wanted to build it into a more full track. I think that showed that he was an experienced musician who is used to playing or recording in a full band and is thinking about the whole track and not just some fancy bass styling. I wonder what they would have done if you had asked for a bass solo...
Exactly my thoughts. No. 5 was best bass solo, but as a songwriter if I wanted somebody to record BASSLINE for a song to build upon, 7, 8 and by far no. 9 would be best.
The professional bassist seemed really set on doing poppy styles, which are fine, but aren't always better. Nice to see that he had some options though.
The 244€ guy was actually very professional. He did a great bass line like in a studio, without being to much of a soloist, and with lots of free space to other instruments you might want to put. I think he didn't know you wanted a REALLY EPIC bass line, like "solo" one. If he knew that, he would easily make a more complex thing.
This one made me freeze and start watching and listening carefully. And I am not even keen on playing bass, I love the channel because of the guy's charizma. Thanks for content, you're Awsome!
5 and 7 were goddamn fucking amazing, the last one is very clearly a session bassist. He kept it simple and solid, he's a consistent player with lots of experience, the price is from how much his time is worth in a recording session.
@@aerahtv0000 5 was great, and I loved Davie's bass line also but only if the bass was the lead instrument. If he planned on adding vocals / guitar / brass I think there were a few better choices.
That were kinda my thoughts as well. 1-8 basically wrote a short bass solo like Davie does in his videos while 9 played the foundation for the rest of the band to work around. Edit: as far as I can tell, Davie even left what exactly he wanted pretty vague so I can see why 9 went with a more simple approach. It's definitely professional but just not as entertaining in a video like this.
8:09 Pay someone to edit the bass guitar out of the video and all of a sudden you got a bass player FLINCHING to 3 simple, but effective, bass tunes..... EPIC
The PRO one did 3 bass lines that would actually fit a song, not just drums and bass, so I think it did the job he was asked for. Anyway, number 5 best one
Yeah. How will each bass line fit in a mix. His left room for other instruments. His timing was great too. Hiring 10 people is a cool way to get ideas. A lot of stuff to work with there.
Thunder Well if the musician cannot come up with some base lines for themselves... I would suggest doing something else? You don’t have to play bass to write good lines for it.
5 and 9.3 are my favourites I also think that number 9 is underrated in what he did. He knows, from experience, that less is often times more when it comes to bass lines. They need to groove and not dominate the track. He leaves a good amount of space to breathe for other instruments.
Depends what you want. I don't mind a rich dominating bass line under rich dominating guitars and rich dominating drums. Makes for VERY rich music, with high replayability.
From a general music point, you are right. He did leave space for other instruments. If he would have specified "i want a heavy lead of a bass" then maybe he would have gone all in. He did a very nice and clean job.
@@jonathanallard2128 Sadly that doesn't work, if each instrument is dominating then it's either a mess or 'progressive metal' if done right, otherwise it just doesn't work. What 9 did as a bassline was exactly what I would expect from a professional studio bass player and he did it fantastic. Although I liked the line for 5 the most, 9 was easily the most professional one
lol thats not his real voice I swear. Thats someone he hired to talk for him while he lip syncs. If you have seen his previous vids you will understand. He has never talked on video
Best one for me is #4, awesome bass line, triple camera angle and looks that is having fun playing it... definitely worth the price But #5 is amazing as well
Davie's baseline was funky and fun to listen to. He slapped the bass (OMG). Made a video (single camera angle). And he did it for free! I SLAPPED LIKE!!!
I think the pro took the best approach. With that drum line there is a lot of ways to go with the sound and providing simple fills over a large range is what someone would need. However the dude with that fender jazz slayed it
Well, 250 tracks by 15 seconds - a little over one hour. Davie could just record a couple of hours of bass improvisation and then cut it in 15 second pieces. We all know that it would still sound very impressive.
Bassline number 5 is by far the most original musically. But if you were writing a song where the bass wasn't the solo instrument you would probably go 9.1 which is really great and simple, def worth the money if you are a serious musician that could make money out of the song
@@anthonyvee9267 complexity has nothing to do with it. He asked for a bass line, not the craziest and most technical bass line the other guy could come up with. He was paying for a guy that has a degree in music and plenty of experience playing with successful artists, so he played a bassline that would fit a band.
Line #3 needs to up his prices, and put the increase towards higher quality equipment. His skill deserves a little more than €15. While he wasn't necessarily the best line, I definitely consider #3 to provide the best bang for the buck. #6 made THE cleanest, wide transitions I've ever heard out of a female bassist playing a standard sized neck, so she definitely has skill. However, I believe she is either over charging for a very simple line OR the two candidates before her aren't charging enough on complex compositions. After it's all said and done I would choose #5. Perfectly executed, good sound quality, loaded with speed, and overall so so smooooooth.
Everyone except the last one wrote either a 12 bar blues or some sort of 1 chord vamp. ONLY the last one wrote basslines that gave the composer MORE OPTIONS. Idk if he was worth 244 euro for 3 basslines, but it's clear that he gave the most valuable product.
@lol lol if technique was more important, then he would've had all the bassists playing the same line to judge how well they played it. They're being judged mainly on their compositional skills.
Johnmichael Boucher sometimes, to make something just a tad better, it takes like ten times the effort... remember there’s a more noticeable difference between a 5 bucks and a 15 bucks wine than between a 15 and a 150
@@RuidoBarilari You got the "Very Nice" from Davie, you can be very proud ! Also, thank you for the triple angle you are not a lame non-slapper audio only *waaaaw*
