try some early deftones, metallica and some other stuff like jazz to get the feeling in your fingers (if you've never played bass before)

other stuff you learn lots from: Rage Against The Machine, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Level 42..

don't start out with slapping etc. just get the rythm feeling first, rythm is the most important thing for bassist, how silly it may sound.

once you get going you can play about anything.


hey, you're from germany? do you know Caliban, heaven shall burn or course of action?
