I love the idea of playing on a different instrument than what you're used to in order to come up with something different. It reminds me of an old Hack Music Theory video on guitar riffs where Ray wrote the guitar riff in MIDI and then learned it on guitar afterward. Using MIDI probably helped come up with some things that just noodling around on guitar wouldn't have. Loving all your content. Keep it coming!
Starting a song with bass lines like that, for me, creates such an exciting foundation for crazy jazz chase scene music. Anything that needs fast-paced, frenetic excitement, even at just 100 BPM it can get wild.
Wonderful insights from Steve Wilson.
btw- Ray, you have great listening skills. There's a lesson in itself; a truly good musician knows how to listen. (Just sayin')
Steve’s ideas in this video are much better take than some of the other ones he’s spoken about lol
Loving these videos so much! Thank you guys for making this possible.
As someone who played guitar for years before switching to bass recently, this is great advice! I can 100% agree that even if I play something similar to something I would play on the guitar, it just comes across so differently because of string spacing/tension/tone that I often find myself becoming more inspired, leading to better tunes overall.
Great stuff, as usual. Thanks!
I'm primarily a bass player, so when I write chords I tend to harmonize a rudimentary bass line. The result is that my songs all have really complex chord structures. Then when I lay down a bass track I don't want to simply follow the chord structure, and that gets complicated too.
bass riffs are an end in themselves
Very interesting perspective. Thanks!
bit relatable i am currently making a remix and made bassline on just top of vocals and when i add drums it didnt fit it felt too much for simple verse and bit complex bass so there is no drums till pre chorus for like 45 seconds
Hi Ray and Kate Harmony can you please teach us the process of publishing music? I want to sell my music but don't want to sign contract to be part of a company.
Where Colin
in J-POP music style, the bass playing solo is quite normal ... it's a like a revelation for the US lol
So they fired/"let go" the aussie bass player
