Curry House – The Bass Studio
Hire Doug via internet to play bass on your next project!
After years of going from studio to studio for various sessions, in 2006 I finally built my own home studio for the purpose of recording my solo album. I’ve been having a great time ever since, doing bass tracks online here at Curry House for recording projects with artists all over the world. In fact, coming up with the right bass part for an original song is my favorite thing to do!

Here’s how it works. You or your engineer send me a WAV or other audio file of your song, along with any charts or written instructions you may have. We can also discuss what kind of bass line you want over the telephone or by email. Very soon thereafter (usually within a few days), I will get a bass line recorded and send back an mp3 of your song with my playing on it for your approval. At that point, you can make any suggestions or request any changes, or you can approve the line as it is. One free revision is included in the price. Once you are satisfied with the final bass line, you can send payment to me via PayPal (credit cards accepted), and I will then transfer the high quality WAV or AIFF files to you or your engineer via Google Docs, Dropbox, or another free file transfer site. It’s that simple! Since I engineer the bass recordings myself, there is no need to pay extra for expensive studio time or engineer fees.
Here are my current rates:
$100 per song
No extra charge if a second take is needed
$60 per additional take after second take
Discount rates available for 5 or more songs
Chart writing services also available
All rates are quoted in US dollars (PayPal automatically handles currency conversions at favorable rates). I am also happy to refer songwriters to other experienced musicians who are available online to help you complete your project at competitive rates. Please don’t hesitate to contact me for a free consultation about bass tracks for your project.
