Back to the Bass -ics
Whenever I made a sample beat, I used to make it my business to add a funky bassline. I recently noticed my need to get beats out quickly had me straying from this more. I began to filter the samples high frequencies out instead. This technique works fine, but the beats where I played the bassline sound better in my opinion.
The first beat I made a bassline to, became a local hit in 2005. People still mention this as being one of their favorite tracks:
“When I’m In The Room” by Ogun

The bassline can drive your beat as much as the rhythm and melody if you choose. You can even start your beat with the bassline and build around it.
Today we’ll explore a few methods of making basslines. When I made an effort to add them, they became part of a signature style for me. Some what like 9th Wonder, he adds really funky basslines over his samples.
I made the “When I’m In The Room” beat in 2004, but listening today reminds me to get back my bass. The videos are for piano or playing bass with a midi controller… Let the bass begin!
