I've mentioned my opinion about bass players before and I'd like to emphasize once again that these players are often underrated. But it's immediately noticeable when they're missing from a song. Only when they play well together with the drummer do many songs get their sound, power and drive. In this piece I tried my hand at playing bass again, although I'm more of a guitarist. In Part 1, I dealt with various techniques. I hope you like it. in part 2 I will focus more on melodic playing, that will take a while. So please be patient.

If you, like me, are old enough to have experienced the golden age of rock music, Deep Purple is one of the bands that really shaped this era. It was Karsten's heart's desire to cover this special song. I liked the song too and we set to work. Interestingly, Struppix presented me with a rather laid back keyboard accompaniment, which spontaneously prompted me to play a guitar riff, more in the zztop style. So 2 versions of this song were created. You can hear the original guitar accompaniment by steve morse on karsten's site. We hope you like them both.

Music is a universal medium that, I believe, touches almost all people. In all situations, in good and in bad times. The LRB is an Australian band that has so much joie de vivre in its music and also strikes a critical note. This cover is dedicated to all those who have lost their inner peace due to the hectic pace of everyday life, who end up in confusion when an illusion is shattered and they land back on the ground of reality. Who struggle hard and yet never reach their goal. Have fun, write us a comment if you like it.

KING KING is the prototype of a Scottish blues-rock band that not only blows the socks off older musicians like me, but younger ones too. I didn't even try to imitate Alan Nimmo's whiskey-soaked, raspy voice, but stuck with my own, and I think we've managed to do a pretty good cover again, with Karsten's rocking organ and a perfect mix. We hope you enjoy this handmade music in these computerized times.

Hi, the song is about my youngest son who was a little kid with ADHD (Attention Deficiency Hyperactivity Disorder). At home, he was accepted for who he was. As he became more and more aware of his condition, he tried to hide his specialness. In this song I slip into the role of my son. (Remixed and improved vocal sound)
