Day 69. If you’re on a small stage and standing right in front of your bass amp, you might perceive it as too quiet, but you could be blasting the front row. Bass frequencies develop over distance, so your amp’s sweet spot may be further away. Be mindful of the room and the audience’s perspective before turning up.

![This amp is a game changer for Bass Players [NEW Ashdown CTM-15] ⚡️
In this video, I tell you why I love the new Ashdown CTM-15 I found at Gearfest through Sweetwater. Its a small punchy tube amp with 15 Watts of all tube power that you can use without a load, so you dont need it plugged into a speaker. I really like Ashdown for a gritty British rock vibe, and this amp punches hard. Thanks to the guys at PRS for letting me crash their jam session and Ashdown for capturing the moment!

![Tiny Song LIVE - Episode 0 [Secret Late Night Creative Vibes]
This is the pilot episode of a potential series for the channel: Tiny Song LIVE. A Tiny Song is a creative challenge I create for myself sometimes. The goal is to create a piece of music based off of a specific concept or experience. Im going to attempt to create a piece of music completely from scratch live for you while you hang out and can offer suggestions. This is going to be a chill, creative, fun video.
