Atheist - Mother Man (Bass Cover)

[@VM0451]

Damn. The bass should sound like that on every record. Finally able to hear all it's amazingness. Great job!

[@DimBass]

Thank you very much! :) I think the bass sound on the "Unquestionable Presence" album is good and we can hear it well, it's too rare in this musical style

[@VM0451]

Dimitri Obolensky True that. I'm not a bassist, but the bass deserves as much attention as any other instrument.

[@Violence1320]

you arent smoking enough weed

[@christianUR1]

Dude, I'm not even a fan of Death Metal, but I'm a fan of bassguitars, and you fucking nailed that instrument! Congratulations and don't stop playing!!

[@DimBass]

christianUR1 Thank you very much! There are some really cool bassist in death metal (in every musical style in fact) and by the way, I'll never stop playing!!!!! I'll take my bass with me in my grave :)

[@Novembrine616]

Kelly Shaefer just shared your cover on fb. Yes, you are THAT GOOD, bro. :)

[@DimBass]

Really? That's so nice from him :) this song is just amazing (the whole Unquestionable Presence album as well) and thank you for the compliment!

[@Novembrine616]

Yeah, he was also asking if anyone knew you :). I agree, that album is fuckin' incredible and your welcome!

[@nospaulatu]

Awesome cover! I was surprised to see people criticizing your playing mannerisms on another video, you are a very entertaining performer and obviously having heaps of fun. It'd be amazing to see you on stage with a band. Other great technical metal bass bands I'd love to see you cover are Cynic, Obscura, Death, and too many more. Do more Atheist PLEASE! Piece of Time has great bass too, Roger Patterson (RIP) was a god.

[@DimBass]

Ronnie Patterson He was and is still one of the most important bass influence for me and my generation of metal bassists (even if i'm "only" 30) and I'm sure he will still stay a great influence for all the future generations!

[@DimBass]

nospaulatu Thank you very much:) and yes I'll do more Atheist soon!

[@G-JS]

Fuck!!!! How the heck can you play this song while moving??? Absolutely amazing, cheers!!

[@DimBass]

Thanks, I'm just having a lot of fun playing this amazing song! cheers ;)

[@G-JS]

Dimitri Obolensky that´s clear man, its a complex song to play but you make it look so easy. Great playing, cheers from Mx.

[@rustykuntz94]

Insane! Just like Roger! 😱

[@JarmoPuolakanaho]

The spirit of Roger Patterson very strong in this one is!

[@matzchase]

[@211Appolo]

This guy looks like Steve Harris. I guess it's only fitting lol

[@kreeper1971]

Roger was a great man as his brother Ronny is. Great job on the bass. He would have loved to meet a musician like you.

[@DimBass]

+kreeper1971 Thank you so much for these kind words :) Roger was the best in his era and his style!

[@TiuqueErrante]

Muy buen cover el sonido impecable.

[@DimBass]

[@megatedassaultituary6783]

[@DimBass]

+Megated Assaultituary Thank you very much! If I'm a legend, does that mean I don't exist? will I disapear form all the pictures like Back to the Futur style?! haha ;)

[@NickClarkDrums]

He's just soo happy. I love it.

[@DimBass]

I'm just soo happy. I love this song ;)

[@thedolphin2445]

You're amazing. I'm a drummer and I think that this song is just impossible to play. My respects. Btw, Kelly Shaefer shared your video on Twitter!

[@DimBass]

Hey thank you very much. I think this song must be even more harder on drums than on bass! But nothing is impossible, it just needs lots of hard work! Yes I saw that for Kelly Shaefer, that's so nice from him, I'm really glad that he liked my cover :)

[@thedolphin2445]

Well, yes, nothing is impossible, but that song is just plain madness.

[@JolyonDagonShreds]

Nailed it, great tone!

[@Chekanchik]

Ты потрясающий басист!!! Я всё видео с открытым ртом смотрел... У тебя талант. И всего 1900 просмотров...

[@DimBass]

[@DimBass]

Кросавчег

[@DimBass]

+Василий Шишкин Do you speak english? thanks ;)

[@jfpbman]

[@DimBass]

Thank you very much :) but why "sub zero"?! :D

[@jfpbman]

[@megatedassaultituary6783]

Can you please record a cover of Psychopathology demo version by Demented Ted?

[@DimBass]

+Megated Assaultituary I doin't know this song and this band, I'll check it out and if I like it I'll do it with pleasure ;)

[@seththomas942]

I don't know whether this channel is active due to that fact that your last video was uploaded a year ago, but if you're still making covers I'd like to request a band called Ne Obliviscaris. Their songs "Devour Me, Colossus (Pt. 2): Blackholes" and "Painters of the Tempest (Pt. 2): Triptych Lux" are both masterpieces with insane basslines.

[@cheat123]

you in here Daniel?

[@boristheblad]

заибимбо

[@DimBass]

English please?

[@boristheblad]

Dimitri Obolensky u got russian name but don't understand russian language? well done I meant in my comment:)

[@DimBass]

Alexander Potapov Yes, my origins are Russian, but I never been there and don't speak. I'm from France ) and thank you for the comment :)

[@aliciacerrito2463]

my name is Ronnie Patterson. .you might recognize the last name and was present when the lot of those tech parts were written by my my twin brother Roger....just wanted to say its sounding very promising and was wondering what the name of your band is or if you're presently are jamming with anyone...and if you write your own material...sounding very good

[@keithmcclellan4350]

That doesn't sound like something Ronnie would say

[@РоманАбдрахманов-д2э]

Роджер Паттерсон машет рукой тебе с высока:)

[@DimBass]

Hey! Can you say it in english please? thank you :)

[@valerionascimben7565]

What bass are u using in this video? Also, how do I such a good tone (I suppose that I have to lower the mids?)?

[@dsaillant811]

Valerio Nascimben You'll get something close to this with bass at 7, treble at 9, and mids at 4. This I believe is a Music Man Stingray, it'll run you like $1400

[@DimBass]

***** Valerio Nascimben In fact it's a MusicMan Sterling Classic Collection (and unfortunatly it's way more expensive). For my sound: I don't use an amp, I plug my bass in an external sound device (Focusrite Scarlett 2i2) and then in Cubase I use a VST amp simulator which emulate the Fender Bassman 300, and then I add a compressor and that's it :)

[@compulsiveg.a.y4212]

What techniques are you using in this video (besides tapping)?

[@SgtBustahnutt]

hey mang. do you use 3 fingers for picking, or are you just playing on the rebound and only using 2 fingers?

[@DimBass]

Hey, it depends on which parts, even on the fast parts I sometimes use 2 or 3, Let say that it depends on the "feeling" of the part.

[@malamindulo]

Good job on everything except the tapping section. That could use some improvement. But it's understandable.

[@DesGardius-me7gf]

You’d impress Tony Choy.

[@giygas7392]

Please do Piece of Time. Mankind depends on it.

[@DimBass]

+GG Allin If it's for the good of the futur of humanity, I'll do it!!! (But i think that mankind will survive without me anyway....) =)

[@giygas7392]

+Dimitri Obolensky Well, you'll be my idol if you do it. Just sayin' :)

[@DimBass]

+GG Allin Haha ok so if i find a piece of time to do it, i'll do it! ;)

[@DimBass]

[@jackcarraway4707]

Still have skin on your fingers after this?
