Jason Raso

The Bassman Cometh

BY Roman SokalPublished Apr 1, 2002

Although conforming to a drum machine, the multi-timbrel-like prancing of Jason Raso's bass is a full-on orchestra of ground vibrating pleasure. He "funkifies” the instrument to the max, and then he allows for moments of rest when things shift into swanky, sultry lounge mode. The entry level electronics actually become a benefit to the music, lending a universal feel that can comfortably place this disc inside stereos in restaurants and bars, as well as providing the perfect spice to various television programming elements.
