Bass strings?

I’m going to get a new set of strings for my bass but I can’t decide which to get. I’m choosing between Rotosound Swing Bass 66 strings and Dean Markley Medium/Light Blue Steel strings. I’m looking for really bright strings that give you that crunch sound when you play your bass.

rs swing 66s, if you want crunchy and bright. most bass players aren’t looking for that, and rs 66s have gained some notoriety for their crunchy, bright characteristics. definately good for rock and metal, just not jazz/R&B

Touch Strings $15.18 As its title implies, Touch Strings culls works for or involving string instruments. This two-CD set fits squarely in Phill Niblock’s œuvre: fans will not be surprised (or disappointed), and detractors will not be changing their minds. There are at least two ways to experience Niblock’s music. One is to stick to the surface and find in his lengthy drones (“Stosspeng” is a full hour long) a calm, static, introspective music that can provide the ultimate background for meditation. The other is to turn up the volume and immerse yourself in it (no headphones though, never with Niblock) to explore his near-infinte world of incremental changes engineered through the use of quasi-unisons obtained from multiple octaves and multi-tracking near identical notes, and the flapping effects they produce. His soundworld is in constant flux — a slow, hypnotic movement that happens as much within the listener as between the loudspeakers. Disc one is entirely devoted to “Stosspeng.” Here, Niblock is using drone samples from Susan Stenger (guitar) and Robert Poss (bass) to build a very quiet and delicate one-hour piece ranking among his most enjoyable to simply listen to. Disc two features to shorter pieces: “Poure” (24 minutes) and “One Large Rose” (46 minutes). “Poure” is built from multi-tracked samples provided by cellist Arne Deforce. Here we have less flapping and more grating, as tones are separated enough to be clearly perceived as out of tune. The piece remains sedate and majestic, but its texture is unnerving and disquieting, awaiting a resolution that will never happen. “One Large Rose” takes a different path to reach a similar goal: The Nelly Boyd Ensemble (cello, piano strummed with nylon strings, violin, acoustic bass guitar strummed with nylon strings or e-bow) is heard performing a 45-minute score of microtones four times, each take having been recorded throughout, and each time the musicians playing a different set of microtones. Whereas the other tracks feature a lot of post-recording work (altering tones, layering, etc.), here Niblock limited his interventions to lining up the takes and mixing them to stereo. The piece starts rather angelic and very gradually builds up to a gritty form of atonality. Touch Strings is not what you would call an exciting listen, but Niblock’s approach remains relevant, and there is an endearing clarity and simplicity to his artistic concepts. ~ François Couture, Rovi Performers: Jan Feddersen – Guitar (Nylon String), Piano; Robert Poss – Bass; Susan Stenger – Guitar

Apron Strings $11.98 The Memory Band played richly textured, mild-mannered guitar-based folk music with some influences from vintage British folk and folk-rock on Apron Strings, their second album. Instrumentally, they’re most distinguished from other acts working in similar territory by their prominent use of both violin and viola, usually in the same track. Listen to the opening instrumental, a version of the traditional warhorse “Blackwaterside,” and you’ll be reminded of Donovan songs like “The Fat Angel,” though the vibe is here relayed in a more detached, somber fashion. There’s some other traditional material on the album too (as well as an unexpected cover of Ronnie Lane’s “The Poacher”), though most often the songs are the work of guitarist-founder Stephen Cracknell, and convey an autumnal, slightly melancholic outlook. The use of both male and female vocals (Cracknell and Nancy Wallace being the most prominent contributors in that regard) helps vary the moods, but the singing, and to a lesser degree the playing, would benefit from some more intensity and emotion. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi Performers: Rob Spriggs – Viola; Adem Ilhan – Bass, Vocals; Alan Doyle – Cello, Guitar (12 String); Jennymay Logan – Violin; Nancy Wallace – Harmonium, Guitar, Vocals; Simon Lord – Bass, Vocals; Stephen Cracknell – Vocals, Percussion, Guitar, Bass

Jumpin’ the Strings $10.38 While the fiddle playing of Byron Berline sets him squarely within the realm of bluegrass, the melodic originality of his work seems to almost transcend the genre over the course of the 21 self-penned songs that make up Jumpin’ the Strings. While Berline is the star attraction, a fine backing band comprised of banjoists Alan Munde and John Hickman, guitarists Howard Yearwood and Joe Carr and dobro player Skip Conover is also given the chance to cut loose on this fine release. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi Performers: Alan Munde – Banjo; Byron Berline – Fiddle, Viola, Mandolin, Guitar; Dennis “Cannonball” Caplinger – Banjo; John Hickman – Banjo; Ken Liebenson – Accordion; Skip Conover – Dobro; Bette Berline – Piano; Bill Bryson – Bass; Colin Cameron – Bass; Dan Crary – Guitar; Eddie Dunbar – Bass; Greg Leisz – Guitar (Steel); Howard Yearwood – Guitar; Joe Carr – Guitar; John Moore – Guitar; Pete Wasner – Piano; Rick Cunha – Guitar

Worms With Strings $14.38 Ignore the puerile musings by the good professor, and instead enjoy his slightly demented music, which includes a collection of tracks from four different conglomerations, recorded over the course of five years. Concentrating on various combinations of strings, Chadbourne leads with his acoustic banjo and guitar. Most of the pieces are multitracked performances with Chadbourne overdubbing on guitars, banjos, and assorted homemade instruments, while one features mandolin soloist Barry Mitterhof with a trio. Others add accordion, bassoon, and oboe, and the results, if not electrifying, should please admirers of Chadbourne. While some might find the extensive doodling tiresome, there is no question that the humor, creativity, and incomprehensible melange add up to a good time. ~ Steve Loewy, Rovi Performers: Brian Ritchie – Shakuhachi, Guitar (Bass), Guitar (Acoustic); Leslie Ross – Bassoon; Barry Mitterhoff – Mandolin; Carrie Shull – Oboe; Eugene Chadbourne – Banjo; George Cremaschi – Contrabass; Tony Trischka – Banjo; Carla Kihlstedt – Violin; Ted Reichman – Accordion, Piano

Strings for Holiday $11.18 Always eager to record in new situations, on this CD Lee Konitz is showcased with a string sextet (two violins, violas and cellos), bassist Michael Formanek and drummer Matt Wilson. The cool-toned altoist pays tribute during a dozen songs to both Billie Holiday and (in a more subtle fashion) tenor great Lester Young, two of his early idols. Daniel Schnyder contributed all of the arrangements for the set. Rather than weighing down the proceedings, Schnyder has the strings adding rich harmonies and phrases that seem to anticipate the leader’s phrases, and they even swing. Lee Konitz, who added a vibrato to his sound for the project so he could recreate some of Billie Holiday’s feeling, handles the ballads and medium-tempo material beautifully. Highlights include “The Man I Love,” “I Cried For You,” “All Of Me” and “Easy Living.” A memorable and heartfelt effort by all concerned. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Performers: Daniel Pezzotti – Cello; Erik Friedlander – Cello; Jill Jaffe – Viola; Michael Formanek – Double Bass; Ron Lawrence – Viola; Cenovia Cummins – Violin; Lee Konitz – Sax (Alto); Mark Feldman – Violin; Matt Wilson – Drums

Sings with Strings $15.27 There is a long tradition of jazz trumpeters putting aside their horns and singing into the microphone, dating back to Louis Armstrong and including Chet Baker, and Rick Braun belatedly joins this confraternity on Sings with Strings. Braun has occasionally added background vocals in his sideman work behind the likes of Rod Stewart and Sade, but this is the first time he has sung upfront. He has enlisted Philippe Saisse to come up with the string charts for this collection of standards and, wisely, brought along his flügelhorn (but not his trumpet) to add to the tracks. Braun certainly doesn’t embarrass himself as a singer. He has a light, breathy tenor that marks him as a sort of little brother to Mel Tormé, and he is sufficiently assured to try a few note substitutions and time variations in his warm readings of familiar songs like “Time After Time,” “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was,” and “The Things We Did Last Summer.” He is still much more accomplished as an instrumentalist, of course, and the real jazz comes in with his expressive playing, which generally follows the vocals. Saisse comes in here and there, notably adding a lengthy vibes solo to “It’s Love.” Having established his vocal bona fides, Braun even risks singing in French on “Plus Je T’Embrasse,” while sharing the microphone with Jasmine Roy. The album is not the revelation that Chet Baker Sings was, and it does not suggest that Braun should hock his horns. But it is a more than respectable side project. ~ William Ruhlmann, Rovi Performers: David Finck – Bass (Acoustic); Dean Parks – Guitar; Jasmine Roy – Vocals; Joe Labarbera – Drums; Johan Renard – Violin; Philippe Saisse – Percussion, Piano; Rick Braun – Flugelhorn, Vocals

Republic of Strings $14.38 The American Fiddle Ensemble is the latest project put together by eminent neo-trad fiddler Darol Anger, whose long resumé includes illustrious stints with the David Grisman Quintet and the Turtle Island String Quartet and has encompassed bluegrass, old-timey music, swinging acoustic jazz, and classical music. In addition to Anger, this group includes the jaw-droppingly virtuosic guitarist Scott Nygaard, fiddler Brittany Haas, and cellists Natalie Haas and Rushad Eggleston. The repertoire on Republic of Strings is just as varied as the ensemble’s instrumentation: there are Appalachian fiddle tunes, of course, including the classic Bill Monroe composition “Old Dangerfield” and the traditional “Grigsby’s Hornpipe,” but most of the album draws on more exotic material, such as a gorgeous Finnish tune called “Sand” and an equally attractive Lebanese piece entitled “Ouditarus Rez.” Nickel Creek vocalist Sara Watkins makes an appearance on an unusual arrangement of Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground”; the group’s setting of that Motown classic is very insightfully arranged — not funky at all, but gently propulsive nevertheless. A gamble that pays off less well is their rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “Help Me,” which falls rather flat despite being nicely sung by Laurie Lewis. They have the intelligence and taste to take “Grigsby’s Hornpipe” rather slowly, but give the Brazilian choro “Andre de Sabato Nuovo” a spirited, swinging attack. Very nice overall. ~ Rick Anderson, Rovi Performers: Todd Sickafoose – String Bass; Brittany Haas – Fiddle; Natalie Haas – Cello; Rushad Eggleston – Cello; Darol Anger – Mandolin, Fiddle, Violin; Laurie Lewis – Vocals; Sara Watkins – Vocals; Scott Nygaard – Guitar

Pulling Strings $19.98 Lori Andrews, one of jazz’s top harp players, often gets quite funky on this set which is co-led by bassist Bart Samolis who contributed all of the originals. Joined on various tracks by a variety of Los Angeles-based musicians (including altoist Eric Marienthal on two numbers), Andrews’ electric harp is usually in the lead as she shows how surprisingly flexible her heavenly instrument can be. This set is a good example of her playing. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Performers: Lori Andrews – Harp; Bart Samolis – Synthesizer Bass, Kalimba, Bass; Eric Marienthal – Sax (Alto); George Shelby – Sax (Tenor); Jeff Kashiwa – Sax (Soprano), Sax (Tenor); Katisse Buckingham – Flute, Sax (Tenor); M.B.

Bottle Electric Bass Guitar $151.59 “Bottle shaped eectric guitar is very popular among the musicians who plays the bass guitar not for rhythm but for melody generally means playing with a pick, however.The musical electric bass guitar has four thick strings instead of six thin strings, although it is possible to get a bass guitar with six or even twelve strings. The body of an electric bass tends to be bigger than the body of a regular electric guitar. The neck of the acoustic electric bass guitar is also usually longer than the neck of a regular electric guitar. Primarily, the electric bass guitar is played with the fingers or thumbs rather a pick. The digits can pluck, strum or even slap the bass guitar’s strings to produce a deep sound.This method of playing produces the familiar heartbeat sound common to most songs that include a bass guitar.”

Hammers & Strings $12.78 From the start of this CD, a very spirited version of Lionel Hampton’s “Boogie Woogie” (here renamed “Boogie #427), through a set full of boogie-woogie piano (even on non-blues tunes), blues ballads, and New Orleans-style R&B, this is a delightful outing. Kevin McKendree’s piano style mixes together boogie-woogie, Ramsey Lewis, and Ray Bryant without sounding like a copy of any of them. He and drummer Big Joe Maher (who recalls Ray Charles and Charles Brown) each take two vocals, including one apiece with the backing of a tasteful three-voice vocal section. The other players are fine, but it is McKendree’s piano (occasionally augmented by organ) that keeps the excitement really going. Highlights include a laid-back “Let’s Get Go Stoned,” “Just Before Sunrise,” “Fool’s Paradise,” and “Sixty Sharp Knives.” This accessible outing is well worth checking out. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Performers: Kenneth Blevins – Djembe, Cowbell, Drums; Spencer Campbell – String Bass; Stephen Mackey – String Bass; Bianca Benford – Vocals (Background); Mara Mitchell – Vocals (Background); Yates McKendree – Cymbals; Big Joe Maher – Vocals, Drums; Delbert McClinton – Vocals; Kevin McKendree – Hammond B3, Org

Band-in-a-Box Pro 2010 (MAC) $89.99 There are some exciting updated features in Band-in-a-Box for Macintosh. PG Music added a "Plug-in" mode, allowing you to simply Drag-n-Drop tracks between Band-in-a-Box and your favorite sequencer (GarageBand, ProTools, Logic, Nuendo, Reaper and more). RealTracks generate much faster now, typically 4X faster. RealTracks now support Shots, Holds, and Pushes. Time for generating of MIDI arrangement is much faster – now 'instantaneous' (less than 1 second). Endings are improved, and RealTracks endings are now 4 bars long, giving time for the natural decay of the instruments. Individual MIDI or Real Tracks can be frozen now, so the arrangements can be saved and fixed, and will replay quickly without need for regeneration. Soloist RealTracks are now saved with the song. PG Music added Multiple Undo support, up to 999 levels of Undo. There are new Reverb and Bass/Treble controls for each track, allowing you to add these to individual Real tracks. All settings are now saved with each song. And many more! **Please note: Band-in-a-Box 2010 for Macintosh is currently available in English only.** About Band-in-a-Box Automatic accompaniment has arrived!
