Name: The Abstract Envelope by Bryan White - Bassist/Composer - AVL NC
Duration: 2 min 23 s
Description: An abstract jam over a drum sample that I looped and added some tracks of electric bass with a palm-muted bass line, chordal backing, and abstract musings with an EBS BassIQ envelope filter.

I've been wanting to figure out a way to adapt this tune for bass for a bit and I sat down tonight to experiment.  It's a solo/layered cover of Lorde's 'Royals' with multitracked solo electric bass.  The bass's voicings can be so thick that I had to strip down the harmonies a bit, and I took liberties with the 'bridge'.  Neat cover though, and great song to begin with.
