What I do if it's difficult is turn treble and mid down to 0 and bass to full on an equalizer and it works like a charm!

I like the understated but rumbling of the bass on 'Starpower'.

'Sleeping Around' has a well groovey bassline. And great drumming to accompany it.

Death Valley 69 and Macbeth come to mind.....

CHOUT 04.03.2006 01:08 PM

The Burning Spear is simplicity at its finest.
Kool Thing's middle section always gets me.
Protect Me You is creepy and minimal (good job on bass, Lee)
Waist comes to mind. A nice descending line.
Catholic Block for its sheer harmonic fucked-upness. Riding C# when the key is F# in the main section adds much tension.
The Good And The Bad with that fucked up Gang Of 4/pseudo disco feel.

burning spear is really cool, but my fave is theresa's sounds world, in the heavy section it goes completely insane...

Spiritual Amnesia 04.03.2006 02:32 PM

Do you mean C? If F# is the key then C# is just the fifth, wouldn't create much tension at all...

Yes It's C#, a 5th above F#. Figure out the parts on guitar/bass and tell me what has more tension, the bass playing the root or the fifth.

SonikJesus 04.03.2006 05:37 PM

I like the bass line in brave men run and The Burning Spear.

HaydenAsche 04.03.2006 06:27 PM

The entire CIS/KYI.

CHOUT is totally right. Also what's cool is when the bass moves up to D for the first jam. It's like a deceptive cadence....
