Yep is the best part for sure. I have always wonder what kind of effect they used. The bass sounds like it is a synthesizer not a real bass combined maybe with an octaver effect
@@Kikin111976 The main bass sound is coming from an ARP 2600 synthesizer played live by keyboardist Greg Phillinganes. The "frog croak" sound is coming from a Casio MT-60 portable keyboard doubled over the ARP 2600: ua-cam.com/video/cMr31qCnx5c/v-deo.html
@@bigboychungas4033He can in fact, at 4:53 you can hear only drums, if he loops it and inverts it, he only gets bass and then agian he can invert it and then only get drums
This is a drum machine, Jeff played live drum kit on HN, Beat It, TGIM, and TLIML. I can't remember if this is for certain, but I think I heard that MJ programmed these drums himself.
4:06 is the best of this track!
ufff yeahh I loved that part sin I was a child, now I'm 39 and this is the first time a listen to the isolated parts, amazing!!!

@@Kikin111976 Arp on 1 track and Casio frog sound on second track
2:37 Best Part
glad someone else agrees that the do do DOOO part is amazing. Gotta love it
Now if only they had the synth melody part, we could remix the song to have the bassline pumped up more.
Sounds like something out of a Sonic game!
Mystic Cave Zone (2P)
You can hear the imperfections, it makes it elite
03:11 best ad-lib!
4:55: have always loved this lick
These drums and synth bass were not used on the final version (which has an arp 2600 tonus model and an electric bass guitar.
I love this!!!😍😍😍
The drums only? Not bass

Drums only please 🤗❤
The drums and bass were recorded on the same track I don’t think they can separate it

There are tracks with bass and the drums separated, but they're only in the hands of a few people
@@bigboychungas4033 These aren’t the drums and bass used on the final version.
0:09 What is the name of the musical instrument? That tuk tuk tuk
Cowbell?
@@user-cg6wo2fw7k maybe
Cowbell of the Lynn Drum Machine
@@diegus012 Linn*
The Linn LM-1 Drum Computer
Can you isolate Village People tracks?
..and the froggie bass too...
i'm sitting on a couch at a party with my beer and waiting for the dj to at least start screaming the lyrics out of tune; nerp
So I guess it's Jeff Porcaro we're hearing there

@@Ailsworth Cheers! Also, I'm pretty sure it was WBSS which MJ programmed the drums on.
@@nef.springyou forgot Billy Jean.😅
Jeff Porcaro was a master
This is a drum machine
@@brodjefferson3513 yeah, you’re right. My bad.
@@brodjefferson3513 Yes, a Linn Drum to be exact
@@crazyralph6386 Porcaro played on The Girl is Mine, Beat It, Human Nature & The Lady in My Life. The rest is Ndugu Chancler or a drum machine
