“The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.”
– Mozart
Solo Bass
I never wanted to become a solo bass player, but my obsession with practicing bass made every band I joined feel boring after a short time. Naturally, I started composing my own riffs and pieces, which eventually led me to record my first songs. Then I was busking on a streets just playing solo bass and eventually to my first solo album.
But it was music for bass players, which was never really my goal. Then I experimented and made a project with my wife Mara – Karmafree. Just a 6-string bass, vocals, various effects, a loop station, and plenty of experimentation. Yet after a while I felt the urge to return to the roots, to leave everything behind and to see what I can do just with my hands and 4 strings and acoustic instrument.
As a result, this led to a breakthrough in the bass world and the creation of a new genre—Percussive Fingerstyle on Acoustic
