About Me

Skill Level:
Semi-Pro
Craft:
session musician, magician, film composer
Instruments:
Bass, electric bass
Genres:
funky breaks, rhythm and blues (r&b), free improvisation, rock, rare groove
Influences:
Flea, Les Claypool, Victor, Marcus Miller, Stanley Clarke

I like most genres of music & try to exercise a little variety ever so often. My ears help me follow others & I love to stick out when I'm work'n it right- Open communication here- I usually record a couple of takes a week...I don't want anyone's money for my tracks, just a little honesty & devotion.
I know this site well enough to contribute in sessions & collaborations. Ask me in & lets get started!

Working With Others

How I Work:

I am here to find others interested in making new music. I check this site regularly & communicate my ideas. I don't hang out in a session if I'm not going to contribute. Open to others criticism & arrangement guidance.

Experience:

Picked up the 4-string in Jan. 2000. I soon started lessons twice a week with Gary Checkeye from Indy at Guitarworks. He explained basic music theory such as: major & minor scales, modes, changing keys, reading bass & treble clefs, open improve with these tools. I was lucky to have such a great teacher for those 2 yrs. I've been practicing & I joined a band called "Altered Roots". So glad to have found Indaba!

Equipment:

Schector 4-string electric bass
Michael Kelly 5-string acoustic bass
I use my thumb & fingers, not too good with a pic.
I record on a laptop with free Audacity program.
Behringer 1/4in usb interface (cheap)

I plan to upgrade eventually.

hello, I am sorry I just got on here and saw your invitation. i do sing tori amos too and I would have liked to sing for you.. I am set up to record, I wish it sounded better but, I need to buy a mixer for my mic. It's clear as a bell, just need some reverb. I am gonna upload some karaoke onto here for people to hear my voice.

What can I say? Masterful bass guitar work. I particularly like 'Have You Ever'. All the posted samples are very creative, and the recording quality is spot on.
Keep rockin' Daniel ....... Sounds great!
