Dude just spilled the beans on the secret for the whole genre - everything else is spice in the mix. Insane!
Hooky is getting closer to 70 (unbelievable) and he's still relevant with his sound and technique. And he was never in the background in New Order. Look how boring they are without him.
Barry Adamson (Magazine) never gets enough love. The bass lines to Song from Under the Floorboards and The Light Pours Out of Me are personal highlights

@@ThePenguinG honestly, the bass breakdown is just a simplified version of the bassline he plays throughout the song, just higher on the frets. you should listen to a bass cover, as the bass in slow hands too quiet in the mix to hear. perhaps the best interpol bassline...
Simon Gallup, Peter Hook, and Andy Rourke are the Holy Trinity to my taste. But there are other guys that make me being in love with post-punk style: Mark Burgess (The Chameleons), Thierry Sobézyk (Asylum Party), Helen Carter (Do Ré Mi), Shmoo Ritchie (The Organ), João Pavanelli (Finis Africae), Frank van den Nieuwenhof (World According To / W.A.T.), and Desmond Doom :) Cheers!

Jah Wobble is fantastic, but also a completely different style of bass. To get the Jah Wobble sound, boost lows as loud as possible and play Dub Reggae, but darker and moody.

Dave Allen (Gang of Four), Steve Hanley (The Fall), and the very obvious Peter Hook pick.
this is absolutely a bassline on some random obscure band's song on one of their practically unknown albums or eps that I'm not a particularly big fan of but still like to death regardless; love the video

This is a perfect how-to delivered with no fuss. Genius. Love it.
This is just a good lesson in making your bass lines more interesting. Next step is harmonic influence (not a real term to my knowledge, just the idea that you can emphasize different degrees of the chord as the bassist and influence the sound of the chord)
Les Pattison, Mark Burgess, Simon Gallup and Graham Bailey are probably my favorite post-punk bassists.
Gallup, Severin and David J, also Mark Burgess for me personally.
Graham Bailey from The Sound is an underrated bassist.
Also an easy way to make a cheap and easy post-punk bass line is to never pluck the string at the same time as snare hits. Instant groove
David J Haskins of Bauhaus, super underrated, great at the simple yet effective lines

Thierry Sobézyk of the band Asylum Party. His bass riffs are so cool... the "Borderline" album has many cool bass riffs.

When I first picked up a bass couple of years ago, I noticed that all you needed effect wise was a detune and light reverb on P-bass to get the old Post-Punk vibes.

@desmonddoom also, humbly requesting more bass content :) picked it up recently after not learning to play guitar for 30+ years and loving it. Soaking up all the content i can and super stoked you have your other tutorial up as well, going to be one of the ten ive decided i will focus on (have 8 picked now)
Your new EP is really nice 👍
Post-punk bassist I really like who doesn't get mentioned much is Will Heggie, Cocteau Twins first bassist. I love the basslines on Garlands, and he also did some great work with his next band, Lowlife
You, sir. Are brilliant.

Best bass guitar player video ever!
Thank you. Super helpful!
Post-punk is a total bassist's genre. The drums are so 1,2,3,4 that the bassist's rhythm duties are nil, but the at the same time the guitar is usually so sparse that you have to pick up the lead. So we bassists get to have all the fun.
Baseline of the year!!!

Carlos Dengler/Peter Hook
nice thanks fot this moment.
The white pickup covers look cool. The bass has gotta look cool
The video lesson is awesome. I want to learn to play bass in the future. And my favorite post-punk bands (except super popular post-punk bands): Abwärts!
Great

Stuart Morrow from NWA, one of the best to do it, still sounding unique and fresh

I was Hooked from the very start!
that was nice
I watched this 3 times because those bass lines are white hot fire. Oh and the video is straight to the point. Favorite Post Punk bassist: Ash Lerczak of Double Echo.
Steven Severin and David Jay, in that order.
Playing small chords or diads higher up the neck, eslecially in harmony with ringing open strings is an amazing technique as well! Think she's lost control or twenty four hours for example
Sounds cool whatever one chooses to call it.
Good ep 🫡
i'm in love with the sound of early Belgrado bassists - Tete Martin and Renzo Narvaez - the former was a total punk with his aggressive basslines, and the latter had this beatiful post-punk coldness in his sound and another favourite of mine is a fella named Desmond Doom, dunno if u know him
Great.
I totally understood everything😀👍
Gallup, Hook and Rourke of course
So cool dude, and now lesson to us a Bass Darkwave! Depeche mode style is so good!
Really need to get me a new bass
Simon Gallup! Also I love this song and the new album!
