 Bass Player - Bernard Edwards of Chic, Part 2
Remember, Bernard didn’t employ the normal fingerstyle technique of alternating the first two fingers; instead, he held his thumb and index finger together as if he were holding a pick, alternately striking the string with the top and bottom of his index finger.
During the song’s breakdown and outro, Edwards took this riff and went off—Examples 1b and 1c show two of his breakdown variations on the first half of the four-bar phrase.

 BNR Metal Pages -- Bernard Edward's Project Homicide   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
The self-titled album from Bernard Edwards' Project Homicide is a perplexing release for a number of reasons.
The guitars are low-tuned and deathy sounding, Bernard's vocals are a semi-spoken, industrial-ish snarl, and the actual tunes are neither death nor industrial, but perhaps a bit of both, a bit of doom, and a bit of straightforward metal.
Apparently Edwards and/or the band has been around in one form or another for awhile now, but concrete information on them is hard to come by.

 Blistering.com :: Music :: Reviews :: Bernard Edwards - "Project Homocide"
Yet sometimes it is difficult to decipher whether to laugh with a band or laugh at it, which was my dilemma when I first laid eyes on Bernard Edwards' Project Homicide.
Adorning the back cover was Edwards himself in fl metal mode, crouched in a haze of fog while gripping a candelabra and "throwing the horns," equal parts King Diamond, Gene Simmons and Rob Halford.
But I still could not be absolutely sure whether or not this guy was for real until, while flipping through the CD booklet, I came across the icon of a skeleton bedecked in a tuxedo holding a sign which read "Comedic Cadaver Limited." So this is a joke, albeit one without a punchline.
