Cliff Burton Tribute (Bass solo)

Clifford Lee “Cliff” Burton (February 10, 1962 — September 27, 1986) was an American musician, best known as the bass guitarist for the American thrash metal band Metallica. He was a great bass innovator, one of the earliest bass soloist.

My arrangement based on two Metallica`s songs: “To live is to die” (interlude), and tribute to Cliff played live in Seattle (1989) by Newsted, Hetfield and Hammet. Equipment: 7string Conklin, Boss Loop station, Zoom effect.

Grzegorz Kosi?ski – Meditation (Bass solo with loop station)

I know that some of you may say that this solo is weird and that it is not the bass guitar to play like that, but first – if this guitar can play like that, is to say that you may play like that, and second – only by breaking stereotypes, by combining styles and techniques, through the syncretism of forms, we can get something new, original and better – the one who copies the style of the others, it is predictable and not make the art of music anything that was pushing the story forward.

“Meditation” song was composed by me in this year. Recorded for 7-string Conklin bass guitar with loop station, zoom multieffect and drum machine. Max. 9 basses at the same time.

The main technique I usually use is two-handed tapping, but in this case I use the others, such as one-handed tapping, scratch, picking, sweep picking, fingering or ‘natural’ and ‘artificial’ harmonics. Effects I used are: reverb, distortion, delay and acoustic (some mixed together).

I hope You`ll enjoy it.
Cheers!

Pachelbel’s Canon for Solo Bass, Zander Zon

My solo album – Sonorous – is now available on CD Baby:

http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/ZanderZon

(Also available on iTunes.)

Well, I decided to give my favorite classical piece a try. And it’s safe to say that, after coming up with this arrangement and practicing it every day for two weeks, there is a 60% chance I will never be able to use my left hand again. : )
