Mr. Bass

Unbelievable...
One of the tracks I’ve been working on for a while proved to be a bit problematic; A discussion with François brought us to the conclusion that it needed a good bass line, played by a human being... not the simple thing I had played on a synth. Something that would take some space... but not overwhelming.
« A bit like what Tony Levin jwould play » was our conclusion.
After laughing at the thought, I remembered that he’s a busy session player and I could try and ask him; the worst that could happen would be a nice « Thanks, but no thanks! »
To make a long story short, he was gracious enough to say yes (AAAAAHHHHHH!) and I received the tracks from Mr. Bass himself yesterday... WOW!
Let’s just say it’s VERY strange to hear « that sound » on one of my tracks!!!!! I’m anxious to go home (I’m currently in Toronto) to work on the track properly!
