Coop a Loop is the solo project of Philadelphia bass virtuoso Eric Cooper. After years of bringing tight bass and deep pocket playing to ensembles across Philly, Coop a Loop has brandished a looper and become the ensemble himself, maintaining a focus on melody and electronic bass guitar music that defies any expectation from a “looping bass player”.
Sure, you hear the hallmarks of contemporary bass-forward excellence: ultra-clean slap and double-thumb techniques, smooth and tight fingerstyle work, and enough funk to give anyone a serious case of Stank Face. Focus on that too much, however, and you might miss the driving rhythms, synthy laser beams, and ambient textures generated through a series of cleverly-utilized effects. Coop a Loop’s music is a blend of electronic, funk, jam, indie, and ambient music.
New album coming in Spring 2025!
