Marc Greenwood on SoundBetter

Professional bassist with 23 years of career (and counting)... recording, touring, engineering, mixing... My band La Habitación Roja is a well known spanish rock band, a staple in most of the music festivals. Give to your songs some serious low end! ;)

(ENGLISH)

I have had a bass guitar in my hands for the past 14 years.
I am very open-minded regarding music and open to all types of challenges, I like being in a state of constant evolution, both in that strictly musical as in that considered technical.
For many years, I have used my time recording, producing, or mixing. The last piece I did was for Jimena Amarillo, together with my colleague Pau Roca, who did the production, I recorded some bass, keyboards and did the mixing, it was somewhat different from what
we usually were doing, and we love the result, because it was fresh and original.
Write to me, I will be pleased to help you, and perhaps leave my print in your song.

(SPANISH)
Llevo desde los 14 años con un bajo en las manos.
Tengo una mentalidad muy inquieta en lo musical y estoy abierto a todo tipo de retos, me gusta estar en constante evolución, tanto en lo estrictamente musical como en el plano técnico.
Desde hace años también ocupo el tiempo en grabar, producir o mezclar, lo último que hice fue para Jimena Amarillo, junto a mi compañero Pau Roca, que se encargó de la producción, grabé algunos bajos, teclados e hice mezcla, era algo bastante alejado de lo que veníamos haciendo, y el resultado nos ha encantado a todos, ya que goza de mucha frescura y originalidad.
Escríbeme, estaré encantado de ayudarte, y ojalá pueda dejar huella en tu canción.

Interview with Marc Greenwood

Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: My couple of Fender Precisions (rounds and flats), the Boss OC-2, the Martin D18 and the Quad Cortex.
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I began to play bass in 1994, until today.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: My natural habitat is Pop, Pop-Rock, and Rock, but I am always open to do whatever music genre, and there will always be a special motivation on something different that will broaden my musical background.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: I am a hard worker and have no musical-ego, so if I do something that the artist doesn’t like I don’t waste time trying to defend my “unique and colossal bass line”, hahaha.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: What it needs, i hope.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I like to listen to the song directly with my bass in the hands, because the first impressions and ideas are important to me, first improvisation will always be a mess, but that’s the way I do something original, something different. So, I sit down with my old Precision Bass with Roundwounds, put the song on the studio speakers, and I begin to play notes here and there...
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: I like to divide my signal to have different options, usually: 1.Bass /// Radial JDI /// Preamp /// Orion Studio /// Pro Tools 2. Bass /// Quad Cortex /// Orion Studio /// Pro Tools 3. Bass /// Trace Elliot GP12 SMX /// Orion Studio /// Pro Tools
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Musicians: Pino Palladino, Andy Rourke, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Verdine White, Paul McCartney, Peter Hook and many more. Producers: Stephen Street, Nigel Godrich, Justin Meldal-Johnsen and many more. Mixers: Mark Spike Stent, Bruce Swedien, and many more.
