    The slap technique gives the song such a great tone. Outstanding.

    I recently learned you make your own basses as well. Much respect, your skill in both playing and building are incredible 👍

    You are the literal reason i got into playing fretless bass. So happy to see this posted

    You got another view from me because I thought this was a video from Cannibal Corpse's bassist (Alex Webster), but I'm not mad! Fantastic playing!

    You are the best. I'm really excited that you got the spot in Obscura. The Wait album is excellent as well!

    you and Jeroen are the only two people in history to successfully play the first bar of this song. Wish you could've played Vancouver this year.

    jesus dude, killer technique, i was holding my bass while i watched and saw your form for double thumb(p)ing? and tried the way you support your thumb with your extra fingers and nailed it! been trying for 8 years to understand exactly how to do it but i guess it takes the right application. thank you.

    Superb! Always get pumped up when I get notified of a new playthrough. I totally vote for playthrough of Spiral Architect's "Excessit" or "Cloud Constructor".

    Nicely done! I've thought about covering this at various times but always come across super impressive renditions like this and lose my steam haha

    Guess all Alex Webs are good at bass, now I know why I am not. Great playthrough! Even your sound is great...and I usually hate fretless farts

    You have a very interesting right hand technique! Quite an effective way to reach octaves

  • @alexmac-adoomarengo5569

    I play it in a very different way, :0. I think this song has some flexibility. Nice bass!

    The level of musicianship across all instruments in 2023 is scary. Fantastic and amazing, but scary. Some bands are on a totally different plane.

  • @sunacchitogen

    Amazing Cover! Another proof that you are the perfect live replacement for Jeroen. Do you use any effects or is it just the fretless?

    • @AlexWeberBass
      @AlexWeberBass  Před 8 měsíci

      Thanks! I’m also using a chorus, very lightly, in my signal chain

    Dang that right hand technique is sick. Amazing tone too, who made that bass? It looks awesome, and I'd love a fretless 6 someday. I'm normally a 6 player and just got my first fretless a week ago (5 string jazz), already looking for another lol.

    • @drunkcat17

      Just in case he never answers, as far as I know, he made it himself

    • @AlexWeberBass
      @AlexWeberBass  Před 8 měsíci

      Thanks man! Yes this was a bass I built myself. Finished it in late 2021 right before I started playing with Obscura

    Need this bass sound for an album, the latest live obscura one was already great :D Also what bass is this?

    • @AlexWeberBass
      @AlexWeberBass  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Hopefully it'll be on the next Obscura record! And It's a bass I build myself

  • @LeandroOlavarria
    @LeandroOlavarria Před 2 lety +2

    Is he using a chorus effect?

  • @thecoldlight
    @thecoldlight Před 8 měsíci

    Not the exact way it was played, but this sounds awesome. Such a cool interpretation. 🤘🏾

    • @AlexWeberBass
      @AlexWeberBass  Před 8 měsíci +2

      Actually, save from the use of double thumping, this is almost exactly what Jeroen played melodically. I transcribed this directly from his isolated stems and I didn’t change anything in this like I did with some of my other videos. Most of the tabs I had previously found were wrong and had the bass playing things that the guitars were actually doing

  • @showaibahmed3669
    @showaibahmed3669 Před 2 lety

    What's that plucking technique called? Using thumb and fingers all together..

    • @AlexWeberBass
      @AlexWeberBass  Před 2 lety +2

      I haven't really given it a name yet. It's sort of a combination of a lot of other player's techniques that I've put together in my own sort of way
