The best Basslines

[luka]

i miss music. it's sad it stopped existing.

 

[Corpsey]

i never think of basslines.

Sung to the tune of when I'm cleaning winders

I expected more dub reggae type basslines. Don't know that kind of music myself.

I was trying to avoid being "too obvious"

but, since you ask


Upsetters - Tight Spot

Lee Perry style JA funk

which gets slowed down and reconfigured with added weight in NY by Leroy Sibbles ( the guy who invented at least 70% of reggae bass lines ) and the Wackies crew into a revolutionary monster


Stranger Cole - The Time is Now / Leroy Heptones - Revolution

Revolution!
Going to bring TOTAL DESTRUCTION!

[william_kent]

good call!

yeah, that's one of the finest ^

the rhythm and sound reworking shames the original source material

akin to alchemy the transformation they perform

 

[Mr. Tea]

listening on a laptop there is no bassline lol

Wait till you hear about these things called earphones, you're gonna lose your shit.

Real talk: starts around 0:13...

Wasn't entirely happy with the timing of the bass on this, so I've adjusted it slightly and introduced a couple of breaks for interest. Really happy with how this sounds now.
