The story behind that is basically I have a bass guitar but in recording I noticed a background hiss that was kind of constant, my bass guitar is old and fairly cheap so I put it down to that.
There's definitely 60-cycle hum at the beginning, quiet part. I don't lay words against that when critiquing because it's a constant enemy and we all take it on the jaw sometimes.What I would do in my old home-cooking is run the bass through EQ killing that, and then boost the same bass track at around 125Hz to keep the thump in there. It had the added benefit of tamping down bass flop -- not that your track suffers that. It might be the bass, especially if your bass has single-coil passive pickups. But it doesn't sound intrinsic to the bass to my ears; it sounds more like an issue in the recording setup or engineering.
