arrondavis Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I read about this guy in a bass guitar magazine, apparently he was number #49 most viewed musician/bassist in the world on YouTube! I wonder why - The preview tracks here - BASS ALBUM - WWW.ANDYSAXTON.COM sound pretty good, not your usual sounding solo bass album. I like listening to music that is structured differently -other than just 4/4. Hence why I find this music interesting plus he seems to come from a rock/metal background and is able to re-produce this genre (especially the more metal sounding tracks) with very clear and audible bass. Plus I am a lover of artists who play every instrument themselves, aswell as record and produce themselves. My PayPal only got like £13 left so.......I need to know has anyone got it?

EddiePlaysBass Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Nice tone and technique. I like this kind of music and could listen to it all day. Like with most of these tracks, I could not hum the melodies to save my life, but I do enjoy it. "I'm a work in progress."

b5pilot Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Andy was a poster here but I have not seen anything from him in a while. Those Warwicks sure are pretty sounding aren't they? Lydian mode? The only mode I know has the words "pie ala" in front of it. http://www.myspace.com/theeldoradosband Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrondavis Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 Is he on here? that's sweet! Well I bought the MP3's from his site (MP3's are cheaper) and I am very pleased with the album, it is a lot more varied than I thought. Just wish he would put up some tabs somewhere or an instructial video as his technique is pretty inspirational (but I doubt id be able to play it) ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plangentmusic Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 He's great. It reminds me of what was going on in the early 90's. (Stu Hamm especially). I personally prefer music that features bass more in the bass role within the context of a good song as opposed to it being the main instrument. Then again, there aren't many musical situations that allow for such expression. It's very difficult for artists to get heard today. Either you're a part of the bland mainstream or you're on YouTube. There's no artist development within the industry. Best of luck to Andy. He's got talent and skill.
