Story Behind The Song

OVER THE YEARS, MUSICAL GENIUSES SUCH AS JACO PASTORIOUS, STANLEY CLARKE, MARCUS MILLER, JOHN PATTATUCCI TO NAME A FEW HAVE ADVANCED THE TECHNIQUE OF UTILIZING THE BASS, NOT ONLY AS A ROOT INSTRUMENT, BUT ALSO TO HOLD TOGETHER THE MELODY OF A SONG. WITH THIS INFLUENCE, I WAS CHALLENGED TO DO SO WITHIN THE GENRE OF MY OWN MUSICAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS.FUNDAMENTALLY, THE BASS WAS ALWAYS THE INSTRUMENT THAT HELD TOGETHER THE ROOT OF A SONG. IT HAS BEEN THE MANIPULATOR OF MUSIC BY SIMPLY STANDING OUT WITH ITS OWN GROOVE, MELODY AND FREQUENCY. APART FROM ALL THAT, ON THIS ALBUM, THE USE OF SPECIAL EFFECTS TO ENHANCE THE SOUND AND CREATE DEFINED FREQUENCIES WAS A SPECIAL CHALLENGE FOR ME. I WELCOME THE SOUND AND HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY IT TOO. "THE BASS WAS ALWAYS AN ACCOMPANYING RATHER THAN LEAD INSTRUMENT AND THE CONCEPT WAS TO CREATE MELODIES AND NOT MAKE THEM SOUND REPETITIOUS OR MONOTONOUS. THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN THE THRESHOLD SINCE 1993, CROSSING THE PARAMETERS OF GENRE. WITH INFLUENCES COMING FROM SO MANY STYLES IT'S VERY HARD TO PLACE EXACTLY WHERE THIS PROJECT FITS BUT ITS FUSED & IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME IN THE MAKING AND CAME OUT CAPTURING MY MANY MOODS OVER THE YEARS"-BENJY MYAZ
