Talking Bass | “Dream Weaver” by Gary Wright


video upload by Anthony Marinelli Music

"Let's break down the iconic synthesizer bass sound from Gary Wright’s iconic song "Dream Weaver". I’ll show you exactly how to recreate that unique, "talking" bass tone that happens in one of the most memorable chorus sections in synth history. I’ll also dive into how to adjust the sustain portion of the bass sound, for the variation that happens in the bridge—it's subtle but makes a huge difference in the overall vibe.

I had the pleasure of working with Gary one unforgettable summer—collaborating on a song for a movie and a couple of tracks for one of his albums. He was not only a gifted singer and songwriter but also an incredibly innovative electronic musician. Gary had a special kind of energy that made every session inspiring. I’m honored to share a bit of that magic form this wonderful person with you today.

Let’s dive in and give this classic bass sound the spotlight it deserves."
