Proliferation - Hericium Dream bass solo

Congratulations to my nephew who was born today - this is for you!

This is a pure improvisation using my Electro-Harmonix Freeze pedal, which was also delivered today! Recorded directly into Cubase with the Valhalla Supermassive delay plugin. If you enjoyed this then let me know in the comments below and I'll record more tracks like this!

This is also on youtube if you would like to watch me perform this piece: https://youtu.be/TG091CTQzGY

Buy this track on my Bandcamp: https://arranmcsporran.bandcamp.com

I had no idea what was going to come out, but I'm pleasantly surprised and impressed by the effects that can be generated with a combination of the Freeze, delay and careful choice of which notes are sustained at a time. I'm trying to use the Freeze like a piano sustain pedal.

I'm playing my 6 string fretless headless Carillion Single-Cut Prometheus bass, with Bartolini pickups and Rotosound Strings. https://carillionguitars.com/
