The First thing i see when I wake up.

The first thing I see when I wake up is my bass guitar. I started to play the bass about two months ago. The compositions that I play to is advanced compared to what beginners play. I didn't start with the easy stuff, I just went straight to intermediate sheet music. I believe that I have a natural talent in playing music. I surely don't think that I got that gene from my parents but rather from my ancestors. I discovered my musical talents at the age of four when my parents had me take piano lessons. From then on I've been walking the path to musicianship and I plan on getting a minor in Music along with possibly a minor in biology and majoring in Engineering. Whenever I listen to music, of course since I'm a drummer I listen to the drums, but I also listen to the bass. For a lot of songs I notice that the bass player is way in the back of the mixing which makes the song sound thin, if you understand what I mean. The purpose of the bass sound is to plant a foundation for all the other instruments: bass on the bottom, drums bottom to top, guitars in the middle as well as vocals. Have you heard any bass solos? Man, I have to tell you that they are amazing. I like how they use the body of the bass to produce that drum-like beat and play their notes over that. I like bass.
