Reason to live (CT bass by wjl)

In late November of 2016, Tom (Username Cody Tripp) put a really nice reggae template onto Wikiloops. And later he added another version, where he took out the bass, so others could play one.

And this is what I did today. I tried different things first, but in the end I played more or less exactly what Cody (Tom) had played himself. So my bass on his template sounds like this:

So why did I go and upload what he had done before? First, because even if we try to play like someone else, we still sound differently. And second, listen to what Moonchild (Devin) had made out of his version already:

I already told her 2 days ago that this is by far the most positive song I’ve heard on the loops until now.

So maybe the reason for me to play something very close to Tom’s original bass line was that I wanted to find out if I could be a session musician for Moonchild? Well maybe 😉

Anyway – I love her song and its positive attitude.

Thanks for reading and for listening.

Update, from the next morning:

A guitar player who names himself “BuzzBomber” made a remix of my track already, jamming along with his guitar over Tom’s sunny little theme. Here it is:

Thanks again for reading and for listening.

And another update, from Sunday evening (German summer time):

Shi has sung on the same track where I (re)played Tom’s bass:

Love this. Thanks again to everyone!
