In addition to bass during the opening theme, Wolff draws on his jazz training during a trio of “John Jermaine Jazz” songs, as heard within episode The Rye, rounding up session musicians as necessary (legendary session player Tommy Morgan, who added harmonica to The Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations” and can also be heard in hundreds of films, handled harp on “Waiting For the Verdict Blues” from the Seinfeld series finale). From The Trip comes stereotypically cheesy guitar-driven rock via the aptly titled “Rock Music Video.” From The Muffin Tops episode, there’s “Kramer’s Crappy Banjo.” “Peterman in Burmese Jungle” follows it on the album, building suspense via its utilization of the sitar. The new Seinfeld (Original Television Soundtrack), available for streaming via Spotify, Apple Music and more, manages to draw on a variety of sounds from throughout the show’s run.

Nobody recreates the theme for a TV show every week.” Because it was weird! It was something from Mars. So that for every monologue, I could create a different recording to compliment the timing and length of each. “And that was my approach to the Seinfeld theme - to create Lego pieces of music that were modularly manipulable. The frequency range of this bass, in a general way, stayed out of the frequency range of the audio of his voice so as not to compete,” said the composer. “But it could start and stop to allow for Jerry to tell his jokes, hit the punchline and I would fill in the blanks - maybe accentuate with that slap bass the end of a joke like a vaudeville rim shot. It was an element buried in the mix of funk music,” Wolff said. “At the time, slap bass had not yet enjoyed celebrity status as a solo instrument. Wolff performed the signature basslines himself and created countless themes, each centered around the cadence of Jerry’s spoken word delivery. Unlike most other sitcoms, the Seinfeld theme music could change each week. How about this? How about if we treat your human voice telling jokes as the melody of the Seinfeld theme? My job will be to accompany you in a way that’s fun and quirky but does not interfere with the audio of your standup routine.’” “On that first phone call, I said, ‘Jerry, that sounds like a recipe for an audio conflict. And he wanted unique, signature theme music to go with it,” explained the composer. “But when Jerry called me, he described to me the problem he was having: the opening and closing credits for this new show were to be Jerry doing stand-up material in front of an audience. I’m not innocent,” said Wolff with a chuckle. See the FAQ for further information.“In the late 80s, early 90s, there was a lot of saxophone and silly lyrics… Guilty! I created a lot of that kind of music. Kontakt Player is not supported: instruments will load, but will time out after 15 minutes.

So why do we think the MIDI Bass is responsible? Because one of the original design team says so: take a look here for insights on the original 360 Systems machine, plus old-school design from back in the day!)
You’ll notice that he says the bass is sampled, but doesn’t actually say he sampled it himself. (If you want to know more about how the Seinfeld theme was written, you can read this interview with Jon Wolff, its composer. The MIDI Bass is a simple little device – MIDI notes go in, bass sounds come out – so we’ve kept things simple for our recreation, which just adds some useful compression and tube saturation controls and leaves the rest up to you and your funk. There is, of course, ‘that’ Seinfeld Slap bass but if you don’t fancy reliving the glory days of American comedy, there are seven other sounds to choose from – a great Fender Jazz bass, through a punchy 80s synth bass to a rather cool Stick bass (think Tony Levin playing Peter Gabriel’s live gigs and you’ve got it)… and more. We managed to score an original tabletop MIDI Bass plus a set of EPROMS covering a range of both classic and unusual sounds with a distinctly 80s vibe. It was a limited but (for its time) powerful-sounding machine that had swappable EPROMS to access additional sounds.

The 360 Systems MIDI Bass was an early sampled bass unit, later upgraded to a Pro version that rackmounted. Remember Seinfeld? Remember that poppin’ slap bass sound all over the show – in the titles, in the end credits, in every sting and transition? Well, this is the little box of tricks that made that sound.
