Alternative-Industrial Project Seeks Creative, Recording Bassist

Laguna Woods CA

Description

Hello, we are an alternative band consistently of two songwriters and multi instrumentalists, and sometimes default singers, with decades of experience. We are currently located on the central coast, but I spend any half my time in OC already and I'll be relocating to orange county next year. The project involves professional arrangements using drum machines, distorted guitar, acoustic guitars, digital/analog synths, and samplers. Our equipment is professional and selected specifically for this project. Most of the songs for the band are written or have significant material ready for final arrangement. But we're missing iconic driving and melodic bass lines, so there's room for a creative, alternative bassist to help fill out the songs and for possible live performances in the future. Our diverse influences include post punk (Joy Division, Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, etc...), alternative new wave (Depeche Mode, Tones on Tail, Soft Cell, etc..), industrial (Einsturzende Neubauten, Ministry, Gary Numen, NIN, Skinny Puppy, Front 242,...), and modern lo-fi (Black Marble, Crystal Castles, XX, Postal Service,...). We expect that a workflow process would involve sharing material back and forth via an application, like Bandlab, or cloud solutions like Google drive. Distance Jam sessions are a potential, but since I'm in OC so often, we can get together then, as well. This is not a paying gig at the moment and I can't guarantee a paying gig. However, all the funds, including from sales of the music and shows, and even songwriting royalties, will be divided equally. If interested, please send me an email with some samples of your music, what you like, and some info on yourself and your plans, and I will send you a link to demo takes to see if you like what we're doing. Serious inquiries only. Thanks!
