Re: Teen Town on the Stick
Great Stick bass groovin', so comfortable that it makes your body uncomfortable (if you're not dancing). Only one picky sonic thing, those bongos and conga drums seem too precise for the precision of tapped Stick and the rhythmic precision of your fingers. I'd rather hear a big, boomy, mushy sound of trap drums behind you.
Not sure if this is a fair criticism. The original Teen Town rendition probably had the Latin percussion behind Jaco. Anyway, I loved the arrangement and your two-handed freedom on those Stick bass strings.

Those bongos are from Logic, i never had the intention of posting it, i made this as an exercise so i put whatever percussion in the app, but finally i liked the result and because i didn´t see anybody doing it on the internet finally i decided to post it. If i ever do it on a real recording i defenetely play it together with a real drummer interacting and everything. I´m glad you like it T
