Music lesson:

• Talking about petrichor slices
  • I tried to add a bass line
• Suggested using less notes for the bass.
  • Bassline sound more like punk rock because it’s on the downbeat, we want it to sound more like funk.
  • We can add some off-beat notes to make is sound less like it’s on the downbeat. We want to add syncopation.
  • This changes the bassline from a supportive role to an active participant role.
  • Try to remove as many notes as possible while still keeping a good experience for the listener
• Listening to an example of a good syncopated bass line:
  • Snarky Puppy - Flood
• Try changing up the bass line the second time it happens by going up an octave sometimes.
