The bass sounds really good to me although I wouldn't have guessed there were 4 basses.  It makes me think about that 90's band Ned's Atomic Dustbin that had 2 bass players.  Also I hadn't read the description yet so the saxophone was an unexpected touch that brings a different dimension to the track.  Overall it's a fun listen.

I don't know about better specifically, but it's pretty good. The sax is a nice touch.

Also, next time you're pulling that quad bass, you could try to harmonize three of them and have the fourth do the other things.

This sounds amazing. Sounds like a bizarro version of a cool cop show theme. Love the sax and bass combo

Do you mean electronically running through a harmonizer or playing different bass lines in harmony?  Both would be interesting. The approach I took was one bass part and then two passes playing dissonant intervals. The 4th bass doesn't start until just before the drums and is noodling a melody in a higher register. I guess it all muddled together.

fun! :)

The sax was a nice cherry on top of that delicious bass sundae! I think too often bass is relegated to a single role and this confirms that it shouldn't be so

I'd say use harmonic intervals instead, and maybe play them in canon.

Yeah, if the cop show was bad ass and kind of sexy with all the sax and bass swagger. And had a dog side kick that could talk. #Brooklyn99  All this talk of cops reminded me that there was a NYC band called Cop Shoot Cop that had two bass players.  Some how appropriate here.

Thanks! Appreciate the Ned's Atomic Dustbin reference. I was a big fan. Good heavy pop material. They had one bass go low and the other high or kind of mid. Worked well.

This is so cool, the bass tracks sound great together.  Really wasn't expecting the sax and drums to kick in but hot damn.

Let's do it. All we need is the 1974 Fleetwood Cadillac
