I've been following Mononeon for a while. All I have to say is that this cats my favorite bass player right now. Focuses on the groove and manages to be insanely creative at the same time. Too many bass players can do all the flashy stuff but suck at actually playing bass. Mono neon holds it down while being progressive and visionary. Seriously betting my money that he's going to blow up.

Pino played so viciously the floor and building vibrated!!!! I’ve seen Parliament, James Brown and Prince many times but NOBODY made the building shake!!
