# 1 ON SOUNDBETTER BASS REVIEWS! Grammy winner. Deep pocket bass and keys. The bass part often determines the overall feel and vibe of a song, and a human performing that part adds something that a sample often can't quite get to. You owe it to yourself and your music to bring the very best.

I've been a professional bass player for over 30 years working with bands, singer songwriters and producers. For me the bass is all about feel and locking in to that drum track. Even if the drums are programmed and dead on the beat, a bass track with human feel makes a massive difference to the piece of music.
