Groove Lab Study 1: An Original Lo-Fi Bass Study
Most bass education teaches you what to play.
This Groove Lab Study explores why musical decisions work.
Using an original Lo-Fi composition inspired by Hip Hop, Neo Soul, and Jazz, you'll analyze how motif, voice leading, rhythm, space, and harmonic color work together to create a memorable bass line. Then you'll apply those ideas by writing your own variation.
This isn't about memorizing another bass line.
It's about learning how to create your own.
You'll explore:
Listening before playing
Harmonic analysis beyond a single key center
Motif and musical identity
Voice leading for smooth bass line construction
Creative variation and reflection
Downloadable bass tabs and practice assignment
