BelgaBass - Invidious

BelgaBass

Old school '70s-'80s disco, funk, soul and latin, played on vintage electric basses and Ampeg Baby Bass, played by a guy who grew up on this music and assimilated it into his veins. I am not aiming for technical perfection, but to reproduce the authentic vibe of songs using a tone and feel as close as possible to the original sound. Without amp, effects or post-production.

I was active 1983-2012 as a live bass player in a whole range of styles, mainly covers/ethnojazz/70's-80's disco-soul-R&B, and later also got into Latin music and salsa and was the only Belgian bass player to play live with Cuban bands in Belgium from 2003-2012.

Soy un Belga del pais de Belgica en Europa, fanatico de la musica disco-soul-R&B de los años 70-80, pero tambien de musica latina con Baby y con swing... tratando de reproducir la buena vibracion de algunos temas aqui. Y todo ese sin ni una gota de sangre Latina en mis venas.

Available for online recordings.
