The most amazing bassist. I watched him warm up for a clinic on his upright, the room was silent, then erupted into applause. That was a warm up.

But you have to admit that some bass design really need you to fight with it sometime ;-) but the bass will allways be the winer as we have 2 hands, she has 4 strings and 92 notes (minimum) to fight with !

Johan Rodén I have always used my middle finger more for popping than my index finger. It just makes a lot more sense. It keeps your hand in what I call a claw formation. And it’s more natural for the human hand in general.

I've seen this relaxation stuff been "promoted" in more videos , Gary Willis for instance also is a strong believer in not overstressing the muscles in your hands and ultimately your arms and shoulders. At some point, all the greats develop similar techniques. Brian Bromberg certainly is one of them. Not all people like his, sometimes guitar like playing, but that is the price you have to pay for being a bass genius i guess.

My two cents: Brian makes several excellent suggestions, but perhaps doesn't "hammer them home". One: if you allow your right forearm to rotate on an axis you end up with a smooth, fast slap technique. Two: letting your left hand do some of the percussive work can make things sound a lot faster with much less effort. Try practicing drum rudiments with the RH thumb and LH fingers (slapping down on the fingerboard) working opposite each other like drumsticks, and you'll see what I mean.
