Spoonie Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 damn, this is like flying back in time 4 years!!i'm not really qualified to comment these days cos there are a lot of aberdeen bands who i've not heard but i would give mad props to blair quik who, if he got his sound sorted out, could top this kind of poll. he plays a nice bass through a lovely amp but never gets the right sound. less treble dude, less treble!!anyway, my personal favourite would be jordan from the x-certs. he's a devastatingly good bassist and he just gets better and better with no signs of him letting up!!and the 3rd spot could go to either hardcore atom who i grew up with bass playing wise and love or my old chum big bad he's definately got the soul for it!spoons /x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stuartmaxwell Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 long time ago like....anyway as far as the deen goes id say that mr chapman of turning 13 is a fine piece of bass assis that because he is your mate or because you think he is a good bass playerhe is a nice enough guy, his playing is solid enough, but i would say he is in no way the best.andy bass from stacatto set/downroads is a VERY good bassist, tight as fuck, ear for a tune, dominates the songs.the guy who played bass in electric tibet is awesome.but thats the ones i can think of, im sure there are a million awesome bass players in abdn that i havent heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Simon from Cedar Rose was always an underrated bass player. He just doesn't get noticed that much, mores the pity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cowboy Dan Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Having first met Jordan X-Certs just under a year after he had started playing bass, I just couldn't comprehend how he had managed to get so good so quickly, it was unbelievable and he still is.

RossP Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Jordan - X-CertsShawn - Eric EuanThats the only one's that've really made an impression on me in the last few years. There's just not enough warm bass chords in aberdeen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's just not enough warm bass chords in aberdeenYou're just too modest to put yourself in this thread In all seriousness I really like the Small Enclosed Area basslines especially the new stuff. It actually stands out like there's some effort put into moving around the fretboard a bit. I haven't seen the X-Certs for aaaaaaaaaages but I'd agree with the Eric Euan appreciation perchance. I love the bassline to 'Hurricane Fighter Plane' by Karloff but Ant never seems to bring the correct pedal for it and was being a bastard on MSN again so he gets no proper mention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larsen B Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Jimmy Jazz. The kid has talent AND never uses a pick.I'd say me and that's genuine arrogance. I do sometimes use a pick at home and stuff but i prefer to come up with stuff fingerstyley. I probably wear a bass and pout with it better than anyone else in aberdeen.

Tav Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Monk you were in Subsidence weren't you? If so then your rated as one of the better bassists I have seen in Aberdeen. It's not often someone one jumps out. I recall Jordan from the X-Certs being gnarly...I'd like to see them again sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
