Well, this is just me playing bass. Most of them are completely improvised. It's all recorded using a tiny Peavey Microbass practice amp and Windows Recorder, through a really bad microphone that's part of my monitor. The set up sucks, so don't be expecting super quality. :)
Do you play live?
Just with my band, The Mark.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Badly.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
With a band, yeah.
Band History:
I've been playing bass for five years. I play mostly rock, and a little jazz. I have four basses: my main Ibanez BTB, which has been signed by Victor Wooten, Kai Eckhardt, and Steve Bailey; my Kawai 4-string; my Ibanez 4-string acoustic-electric; and my Dean Rhapsody 8-string. I plug into an Ampeg SVT 3-pro which powers a Peavey 4x10 cabinet. I also occasionally use a Boss Chorus pedal.
Your influences?
Flea, Jaco Pastorius, Victor Wooten, Kai Eckhardt, Steve Bailey, Adam Nitti, Dirk Lance, Victor Bailey, Jim Creeggan, Lars Norberg.. just tons. Name a big-name bassist, and he/she's probably influenced me.
