I’ve got some bad news…

As you can see I’m sitting in my Dr. Evil armchair, and it kinda looks like I’m about to deliver an internationally ‘broadcasted’
‘I’m-about-to-destroy-the-world-with-my-gigantic-death-ray-laser-beam-if-all-the-world’s-leaders-don’t-suck-it-up-pool-their-resources-and-pay-my-$5,000-ransom’ speech.

A Day in the Recording Studio With Slackers!

“BootLeg Productions” presents…
“A Day in the Studio with Slackers…”

*****

Hey yous guys gotta look at today’s video! It’s pretty cool 🙂

Why?

Because today I’m actually sneaking you into the recording studio with me so you can meet a few musicians and see what happens when guys who obviously have no idea what they are doing, choose not to do the common sense thing (like spending some time to rehearse) but jump right in the studio and hit the RECORD button 🙂

Butt Kicking Bass Lines in 3 Simple Steps?

I’ve been searching for a 100%, totally unbiased way to describe today’s video and I’ve finally got it…

“It’s Bad” (By bad I of course mean super cool) 🙂

Don’t get me wrong…

It’s not the coolest thing since hair activator because of some real fancy-pants bass playing, but because as a teaching aid it finally distills the 1.93 bazillion (give or take) factors that make a great bass player, down into The 3 Most Powerful Levers you can use to crank up the overall awesomeness of your bass playing.

New video bass lesson on the horizon…

Hi guys just a quick update to let you all know I am in the middle of editing a brand new *killer* video for you!

As usual lots of detail included, lots of great value – I’m actually very proud of how this one is turning out because it will *really* break down the ‘behind-the-scenes’ thought process that goes into outstanding bass lines, (with lots of demonstrations) and I really believe that information like this is by and large sorely lacking for our community.

Stay tuned… I haven’t abandoned the blog, it’s just that I am really working hard on a lot of stuff for you and need to get it up to a level that I am comfortable with…

(Psst… I’m even editing a brand new ebook, and a boatload of great bonuses as well that’s gonna be available to you blog reader FREE OF CHARGE!) Trust me — this is all gonna be worth the wait!

Yup all of this AND working on a new product too…

When do I sleep you ask?

That’s a darn good question. 🙂

Stay cool and watch your step.

Breaking down ‘Take 5’

Ok I’m exhausted, I’m starved and in desperate need of a barber…

And here’s why.

I started off shooting the detailed breakdown for the ‘Take 5’ video, (see that original video here) and kinda figured it’d take about 15-20 mins tops…

So I locked myself in the studio with only enough food and water for 20 minutes and I promptly got to work. Continue reading Breaking down ‘Take 5’
