I might be nuts, but it seems like there is some kind of
connection between the two. Squarepusher is phenomenal,
Clifford Gilberto is a beast, and now I'm listening to Ochre
and there are a few tracks I've listened to with what seems
to be live bass. I play electric bass and I find these
people to be very inspiring, especially for a formally
trained musician like myself that primarily plays with
actual bands and live people.

FUCK YEAH! :) Ultimate beast, he is. "Problem Child" has a
pretty sick bassline too. I saw some pics of his recent US
tour and he was beasting a 6 string Warwick, I believe. I'm
still kicking myself for missing that.

if you'd like to hear some phat basslines, check out les
claypool or bootsy collins - though I'm sure you have
already. :D

Hah, yep! Not too familiar or fond of either's music, but I
greatly respect them. I like Jaco a lot and I dig early funk
and new funk. One of my favorite groups is Soulive, which is
just utterly incredible. I've seen them live 2 times and I
can't help but smile and move when I experience them. I've
actually met the entire band and chilled with them for a
good 10 minutes, which was pretty surreal. Got their sig's
and all. In that band, though, there is no bass player, the
organ player handles that all.

Yeah... I played bass years ago for a
garage/industrial/punk/goth band...

Now I just do the computer music thing... 2 lap tops hooked
to a mixer and stuff...

But my side project... (Souvlakia) is 2 of us... My friend
plays guitar... And I control all I mentioned before plus
keyboards and "Occasional" bass...

can play bass tho i probably tend to play it a little like a
guitar, can't remeber if it was paino or guitar that was my
first instrument i learned, i prefer the sound of recorded
bass on tracks, something about it, sound of sliding between
frets maybe?
