Past Aspiration
After TheGreatSze commented just now, I went to look at some of his videos and saw some funky bass videos. I shall now reveal that I had a secret aspiration last time to play the funky bass like this
Partly cos of this bass solo (at 2:34 if you dowan to listen through the whole thing) so long ago somewhere in the middle of the song “the rain must fall” that inspired me.
Of course, an electric bass would look pretty suspicious in the house so I never got around to buying one. I did.. however, almost play it in band, but never on stage. I chose a clarinet solo over it in the end. hahaha.. So the concert some people came.. I think it was felicia, charissa, shawn, shirley and some other person I cannot remember..
I still think the bass guitar is a great instrument and there are acoustic ones! No need to play them funky though.. they are a great replacement for plucked string basses in a small ensemble. Wanted to get for church before. But nobody would play. haha..
I had a couple of Yanni CDs from sec school which I must say fueled my enjoyment of music in general. Its nothing classical can provide. Makes me laugh as I think back of what I thought about as I listened to all this. Yanni’s piano music was always quite contemplative and sentimental.
As I took out my CD player last week I just had to pop in these CDs which I haven’t heard for super long. After a brief listen, it kinda brings me back to the year 1998. Specifically. Heh..
Anyway, I find my taste for music changing again. Its strange cos the radio is just so noisy now.. even the oldies are annoying. Even when I turn it on just to find out about traffic its unbearable. Band music also. I think.. I need some silence for a while now. And a whole load of good christian music thats been lacking in my life. I don’t like to listen to them as white noise thought.. I prefer to really listen to them when I play it. Its of no value otherwise right?
edit: horrors! He has degraded himself to this lousy beaty music! ahhhh…
