I don’t think I have ever been more excited for a RUclips channel! You’re one of the reasons I picked up a bass 25 years ago!
Really appreciate this Matt. It’s always enlightening to hear bassists talk about their thinking behind bass parts. We can often intuit things by playing along and learning the tricks but it’s often revelatory to hear the bassist themselves speak to it.
Been listening to Rancid since I was 14. I'm 43 now and still listening to Rancid. Me and my sister both have Rancid tattoo's and we've seen the band perform multiple times. Got Tim and Lars autograph in the year 2,000. I even hitchhiked x994 miles just to see you guys play ( I was 18 at the time). I found Tim in the mosh pit during the Distillers performance, he was literally standing right next to me and then we both jumped in. I'll never forget that experience. Looking forward to the upcoming show in Toronto, Canada!
If this existed 25 years ago, I would have been obsessed. Still very excited. Definitely a handful of songs I could never crack.
Exactly what I was going to say.
By far one of the best youtube channels already. I've been obsessed with the Bass Bunker videos since the first was recommended to me.
This is f*****g awesome. You're a legend, Matt, and an inspiration to lots and lots of us. Can't wait to learn from you.
Fan since 94, you are the man!
You are the reason I play the drums. First time I listened to Rancid I realized it was impossible to reach your level. You are the greatest
This is really exciting. I've been learning loads of Rancid as a beginner and trying to understand keys and all that jazz. Matt Freeman bass lines are teaching me and have done so on and off for many years. Thanks for doing this for the people.out there.
This is unbelievably awesome! New favorite channel.
Thanks for doing this Matt! We'll all try and keep up!
When I first picked up a bass the cd that I put in to teach myself was and out come the wolves. Thank you for being such an inspiration.
Matt, you're one of my bass heroes. I've been playing your lines for 20 years and they've gotten me through hard times. Lots of love from Canada!
Matt, thanks so much for doing this! You are one of my all time favorite bass players and one of the big reasons I am a bass player today. To get lessons from you is absolutely amazing. Thank you!
You are a big inspiration for me. I remember listening to rancid on the bus in junior high and I just wanted to shred bass like you. I eventually got to do some touring and see the world thanks to playing base. Thank you
Thank YOU, Matt. I'm just glad see you again
Trying to figure out Matt’s lines definitely made me a stronger player, even if I never got them exactly right. I learned a LOT about how to move around a chord structure, and keep bass lines interesting from Matt. CHEERS!
So pumped. Definitely excited to hear how you approach writing your bass lines
I always loved the bass guitar and always wanted to learn how to play. Unfortunately growing up my parents weren’t loaded, and the only bass in the house was bought for my brother who ofc never let his little sister play. I just might look for a bass now and start learning. It’s never too late.
Extremely stoked for this! You've been a hero of mine ever since I first heard Rancid, must have been back in 1995 and I had just started playing bass. Very excited to see what'll happen in the bunker!
Thank you for doing this Matt, you're one of my biggest influences and have been since I bought "Rancid 2000" 24 years ago..! I have been transcribing your bass lines recently using the Moises app to isolate your bass, and writing them down in a hardback bass tablature book. There are some that I could never play though..! Anyway, long story short, this is awesome..! Looking forward to the new videos. Cheers. Mark.
Providing that kind of content is a brilliant idea! I'm very much looking forward to it, Matt. Your bass lines (and Fat Mike's) made me give playing with a pick another chance
Thanks Matt! I spent hours every day in highschool learning your basslines (on a shitty fretless bass). It's awesome to be able to see and hear what you're doing so clearly now.
this was one of the best things that I remember from the quarantine days, so so enjoyable watching those bass buker videos
This is amazing. You've been one of my biggest inspirations over the last 30 years
Awesome!!! It's like a dream come true!
Awesome 🔥
Right on! ❤🎸
Welcome to RUclips. I love your videos over on Instagram so am very excited for this channel. Have fun with it.
I'm really stoked about this! Been listening to you play since the early 90s!
What can I say... you are my favourite bass player at all.
Best news I've heard all day! Got my MF signature bass ready to rock. Thanks for doing this Matt! Legend
This is what the Internet was invented for. Thanks Matt!
Thanks man!! been a fan since my friend made me a CD in 7th grade back in 2007, I've been playing bass ever since!!
You're a bass god, thank you for sharing the knowledge!!!🙏🏽🤘🏽🎶
More Matt Freeman content, awesome, can't wait!
This is exciting! You are a legend and as a bass player myself any of your knowledge you share will be amazing
Longtime Rancid fan and friend of Branden but just finding this thanks to the reviews of your playing on Low End University. So excited to jump into this channel to watching you shred some classics and to enhance my bass playing.
I'm so excited to see this. I spend a lot of time listening to the details of your bass lines and trying to learn them. I know I'm not nailing it or able to hear it perfectly all the time, so the idea that you'll be walking us through how to play some of these bass lines is going to be an incredible resource for those of us who love this music. Can't wait!
Matt the GOAT 🙌🏻
One of my big bass heroes! Awesome to see this! Thanks, man!
That’s awesome Matt. Can’t wait for the Maxwell Murder solo
Sto stoked for this. Really looking forward to seeing how you approach writing.
My favorite bassist of all time!
Looking forward to this. You've been a huge influence.
Hey Matt! I'm really looking forward to watching your videos. My friend played Let's Go for me over 20 years ago now, and I decided bass was what I wanted to play.
Fuck yeah! Mr. Freeman is why I started playing bass
I can't wait to see the instructional videos.
Oh happy day! What a happy day!
And its for free !!!! Thank the King of Bass
This is awesome! Thanks for doing this. I'm really looking forward to it
Greatest rock bassist, ever.
Thank you Matt!
Cant wait for all the content.
This is wonderful! Thank you!
This just made my day!! Super pumped for this
Grande Matt! Sos mi favorito en bajo punk.
Ok, Mr. Matt Freemen is definitely the reason why I started to play bass. He opened a window and I am daily fascinated by the cromatic view that he's showing in his songs. It is funny that I just started my channel and my first posted cover is a Rancid one. Now this channel will sure be a source of inspiration and motivation. Thanks mr. Freeman! ❤👀🎸
Yesssssss!!!!!! This is awesome!!!❤❤❤
Hahaha now i can play along to you playing along to you
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Idek how to describe how happy I am about this
Thank you, this is gonna be rad.
Huge f’ckin fan! This is awesome! Please break down the Maxwell Murder solo!
Gracias Matt!
Just found this channel and it's awesome! Subbed.
I'm not a bass player, I'm a drummer. Nonetheless, I'd love to watch a video of the Maxwell Murder bass line. That song is insanely cool and fast.
Thanks a bunch for sharing secrets of the low end stuff. 🙌 Being a multi-instrumentalist myself, there’s always one instrument that stands out in every band - In rare cases more, in some bands all of ’em - that makes you really just wonder ”how does that work, I wanna play like that”. For me it was always the BASS in Rancid.
I subscribed and will keep an eye on your channel. Hope to see some more tracks from And Out Come The Wolves and some more Op Ivy stuff.
Oh yeah, on my YT channel you might enjoy POSSIBLY the worst cover of Healthy Body that has ever been recorded. 10 years ago, you know. Definitely no bass playing in that one. 😂 I had almost forgotten…
This is gonna be great
THANK YOU ❤️
Thank you for this! White Knuckle Ride and Axiom please
Bass hero!!
Very Cool, Dont think we had those available down here in NZ. Would like to see what your rig is that your running through in the Bunker there if different to your other video, and what your running when with Rancid.
Enjoying these vids
The best. So happy to see this!
Thanks Matt, absolutely outstanding bass player. Life won’t wait saved me. Legend
Thank you
Yay!!!!
Matttttttt freeeeemannnn🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yeah Boooooiyyy!!
🐐
Only bass player I'd subscribe to
holy shiz! This is why they made youtube
👏🙏
Hey Matt, can you please show the bassline to Devils Brigade my own man now? Cheers from germany
Not only are you a killer bassist. But you wrote all these amazing songs. How did you write Opertion ivy bass lines at 17-18 years old?
One day you could try play them on an accoustic bass. I use to use a loop pedal for vocals but sometimes i would use the pedal to loop a guitar riff. And then i would overplay on top of it. And add layers.
I bet that is something you would do really well with
I am quite a big talker.
But perhaps as well Matt, you could compose good chip tunes. You know, old arcade tracks. I bet you could if you had a good tool for it. A custom tool maybe. I have been working in this field of building a timing mechanism to compose from chip as there are very few tools available it is hard to know what to use these or even find it to begin with. Often is the way to make these things yourself
Particularly difficult to grasp the concept of was producing bass waves from the speaker via defining a wave as a list of values. And stretching or thinning that wave and safely produce bass that doesn't destroy speakers.
It's quite difficult for most people to get their heads around
Double bass stuff from Devil's Brigade would be nice. Is the band gone for ever?
Thanks a ton for this! How do you like to set your tone and volume knobs on your bass? And do you ever change it from song to song?
Please do Rejected. Appreciate you very much.
Hey Matt, ive been trying to work it out in every single videlo What's the brown offset guitar on tbe wall? What's the story behind it?
That was the easiest sub ever!
