The Electric Bass in the Guitar and Bass pack is particularly good for creating bass 'ghost notes'. This is what makes bass players like Jaco Pastorius sound so funky. Once you've written your bass line, go back and start adding extremely short notes in syncopated 16th positions in the high register. These notes are so short you can barely tell what pitch they are but they add a percussive magic that will bring your bass lines to life.
Thanks! Will try this out.
Jaco was a beast at bass solos
See MonoNeon from Ghost-Note
Great tip, and 100%
@ Arne Hanna: Pastorius, Erskine and Zawinul are GODS!
At least 70% of what I know about Funky Bass and keyboards improvisation comes from Weather Report. So I'm gonna put a HUUUGEE Thumb up here!
Bro the way you mix teaching with humor and the way you deliver both is so fun and engaging to watch... i mean i had fun learning music production from the start (despite it being pretty difficult) but your way of educating just pulls me in even more and almost makes me forget how hard it actually is... this shit makes me remember that i started out making music to have fun. I sometimes forget that until i come across another one of you vids. keep it up
yeah this guy is genius
Seriously funnier than most stand up comedians and tv sitcoms
Never thought I'd learn so much about bass in a 10 min video. Thanks underbelly 🕺
I spit out my coffee when he said "It sounds like Humpty Dumpty has colon cancer" and I wasn't even drinking any
I'd get tested just in case

The second part of the bassline reminds me Music sound better with you by stardust, excellent tutorial UB!!
Because those 4 notes are the same but played differently ;)
This is the new gold standard for tutorial videos for any topic
Bruh, I died at the bassist take upers and downerss thats why they always playing octaves. XD
Been making the best how to produce videos for years and still getting better. Thanks fella!
Using A minor after C major was hilarious
I honestly didn't expect to actually finish the video. But it's unexpectedly brilliant! Good on the democratized nature of UA-cam that can allow such unique voice to be published and heard!
do you even Earth the past few years?
My roomate says I should lay off the lines, but now I can hit all the lines I want, basslines that is. Thanks UB.
This is one of the best tutorials i've ever seen. So helpful and the humor is on point. I love this guys teaching.
I'm a bass player by feel and sound alone and never thought learning core and basic music theory would up my bass playing. Thanks for this video i never knew that i was doing Chromatic motion all the time i decided to use a Diminished chord/note both on my bass and electric guitar playing.
at 3 minutes in I finally understood what is meant by playing along with the drums just by showing an actual example of it! Haven't found any video that explained it that simply lol
Laughing while learning is the greatest feeling. You're the best, Underbelly!
Always enlightening, always entertaining . Thanks UB
Can’t wait to get a lesson from Prance again.
This was fucking amazing. Love the sense of humor, memes, music and talent! Great job mate, honestly.
What a perfect video. I just started with Ableton & this whole producer thing less than a month ago so everything is very new to me. I’m happy with my progress but your video has taken me from the middle of the disco with a frown to groovin in the spotlight! You rock man! Keep it coming 👏👏👏

Praise be to the UA-cam algorithm for delivering this channel.
as someone who's just been throwing droney one-note per bar basslines into my dance beats way too much, this is good reality check. thanks
I teach Ableton in a school, this is such an unbelievable tool , thank you so much !!!
It is noble to be expert in whatever you have the good fortune to teach
Bro the way you teach is so motivating for some reason, maybe it’s the humor idk but I love it
This was genuinely super helpful!
Extremely entertaining and informative. Thanks for reminding me that music making can be fun!
Your stuff is super fun and super informative. Good job.
This was hands down one of the best tutorials!! Loved the simplicity of this process
holy shit i love you man. This was awesome. I'm studying education in school and let me tell you brother there is a lot of professional educators who could stand to watch a couple of your videos. Not only are your basslines stylistic, but your teaching style is as well. Truly man, I'm blown away. I got five (5) good hearty laughs, and seven (7) chuckles out of this. Not only this, but I really do feel I've learned something today. It's true, I do suck at producing, but after this, I will be a little bit better, and one step closer to my goals. You have empowered, inspired, and humored me, and you have most definitely got my subscription. I look forward to watching more of your videos and learning more from you. From the bottom of my heart brother, thank you. be well.
Outrageously wonderful! Thank you
I love how you make me feel like an idiot, while also teaching me cool stuff.
You are a legend in pedagogy
beautiful explanation can you explain how to make disco 70 strings ?
love this guy and his delivery. thank you i no longer suck at producing
Your tutorials are the best! 🕺 ⭐️ 🎸
Only vid I’ve seen so far and I could not subscribe and like fast enough. Dude keep it up
Excellent lesson, thank you!
Learned a lot in this short video. Thanks!
Amazing. Missed your genre series 👏👏👏
Your videos have helped me so much my guy
That B part sent me into a groove. Good work! Daft punk vibes with it for sure.
The B part is basically the bassline from Stardust's only track, "Music Sounds Better With You." Stardust is compromised of Thomas Bangalter (silver half of daft punk, ran a label called roule), Alan Braxe (french house legend and released some tracks under roule), and Benjamin Diamond (just a french vocalist). So that probably explains why.
This is an incredible tutotial, thanks for doing this! I learned so much in a such as short time, it was also fun to listen throughout :)
1st class infotainment! Entertaining and educational. Thank you.
I feel like you are explaining like I'm an idiot, and I like that
pure gold! Thanks
youre the best pls never stop creating!
