RECORDING BASS TRACKS
Throughout my career, almost 30 years long, I have been professionally recording BASS for some of the most popular artists from region of Ex-Yugoslav republics and Western Balkans in different music genres, from Pop/Rock, Funk music to Jazz, Fusion and Balkan Ethno World Music.
Some of my recording credits include jazz fusion group Vasil Hadžimanov Band (first 4 albums), rock group SMAK, Balkan Ethno multi-instrumentalist Slobodan Trkulja and group Balkanopolis, Serbian pop stars Vlado Georgiev and Željko Samardžić, famous female singers Bisera Veletanlić, Brankica Vasić Vasilisa, Tereza Kesovija and The Frajle.
Also, I have been fortunate to do studio sessions with/for great jazz/world music artists such as guitarists Nenad Gajin, Marco Antonio da Costa, Ante Gelo, MickyLee and Dušan Jevtović; drummers Marko Djordjević, Dado Marinković, Herbert Pirker, Srdjan Dunkić, Igor Malešević, Dejan Momčilović, Petar Radmilović; pianists Bojan Zulfikarpashic, Kornelije Kovač, Aleksandar Bahun, Martin Riter, Aleksandra Banjac, Maasej Kovačevicć, Živorad Žika Filipović; tenorists Krsitijan Mlačak, Bunford Gabor; trumpet player Marko Djordjevic, accordion virtuoso Borko Radivojević and large ensembles Novosadski Big Band, Vojvodina’s Symphonic Orchestra and Belgrade Philharmonic.
I record electric bass parts in various styles using my 4 and 5-string fretted and fretless bass guitars, active FBass BN5 and TOMISIC VS1, fretless Pedulla Pentabuzz, amazing passive TOMISIC MarkOne (all handmade) and Fender Squier Jazz Bass with Custom Shop ’60 JJ singles.
In 2021, I have started doing bass overdubs remotely from my BASSLINE studio in Novi Sad (Serbia) providing professional bass tracks to artists, songwriters and producers. My signal chain starts from great SonicDune D.I./Preamp/EQ with outboard compression from RNLA 7239 to AI RME BabyFace Pro FS finishing delivering present, balanced sounding track.
