New State of Mind (HD Remaster)
Here’s a remastered version of New State of Mind, that I originally did in 2010.
To Be Over
Dear friends, this is a very special video for me because I’m presenting the bass I have built in the memory of Chris Squire. The #bassforChris project is my first attempt to construct a bass and it took me about one year. Finally it’s ready. Another important part of the cover is the use ofContinue reading “To Be Over”
Our Song (HD Remaster)
While I’ve been preparing my newest clip, here’s one of my early covers of “Our Song” that I made originally in 2009. This HD remaster also includes a final mix with more bass. This song was played originally by Chris with his Gibson Thunderbird.
Parallels (HD Remaster)
Here’s an “oldie” – my second YouTube bass cover, recorded in 2008. I tried to make a remaster out of it, although I don’t have the separate bass track anymore. At least YouTube encoding now is much better. The audio and video quality should have improved a bit overall!

Happy Birthday, Amazing Chris!
Here’s a remaster of the Amazing Grace solo that I originally played in 2009. Today is Chris’ 67th birthday – Happy Birthday, Chris!
Machine Messiah (HD Remaster)
Around six years ago I was experimenting with video effects and recorded this cover of Machine Messiah. Since then, YouTube’s audio and video compression capabilities improved a lot so I figured that this one could be sort of remastered both sonic and visually. As I had the green screen behind me, and although the lightingContinue reading “Machine Messiah (HD Remaster)”
Montreux’s Theme (Rickenbacker)
Here is the Rickenbacker version of Montreux’s Theme, which came second on the poll in which the Fender Jazz Bass has got more votes as we were trying to guess which bass was used by Chris Squire for this beautiful instrumental. For the recordings I chose to boil old Rotosound strings, which sounded better that brandContinue reading “Montreux’s Theme (Rickenbacker)”
