Whenever Edgar Meyer plays, it is an amazing bass moment.

My ultimate bass moment is a trip to the Old Town Music Hall in El Segundo, California. It's a movie house, but has a vintage Mighty Wurlitzer installed and there's always a short organ recital before the show.

That Wurlitzer can hit 12Hz. Let me repeat that, twelve Hertz. Few instruments hit that low and fewer hi-fi systems can reproduce that low. It is nothing short of amazing. The bass has a visceral feel, like nothing else.

For me it's Bonobo with Days To Come, from the album with the same name. Especially when the bass first kicks in at around 20 second.


The percussions are coming along, and then the drums and bass kick in. Not a big oohmpy bass, but a well controlled, nice sounding bass

Oh, I dunno... maybe anywhere within 100 yards of a jet taking off.

I preferred Jaco's Continuum. But that's more of a bass player moment than a bass moment.

Best bass moment for me has to be Bela Fleck and the Flecktones' Sinister Minister. Victor Wooten carries the entire piece with addictive basslines.

That one was responsible for the destruction of one of my KEFs long ago. New driver on warranty though, so it was a happy ending, and they never gave me any trouble after that, even caning them just as hard. Got Autechre's Clipper (from Tri Repetae++) playing through them right now.

Another one I just thought of - Evolution by Cinematic Orchestra.

I would just LOVE to hear this track on a high end system...
