Summary of This Method
Designed for all bassists who want to develop a true funk vocabulary, this method brings together 50 bass grooves tailored for group playing, metronome practice, and locking in with a rhythm section. Before diving into the core material, a preliminary chapter lays solid foundations: right-hand and left-hand techniques, articulations, typical funk effects and attacks, as well as essential rhythmic elements to achieve a clean and effective groove.
Each groove is then presented in a way that makes it immediately playable and usable. The video section allows you to see and hear the execution "in context," first at normal speed, then in slow motion, to better analyze fingerings, dynamics, and consistency. Additionally, the MP3 audio playbacks provide an ideal practice environment with long accompaniments (3 to 4 minutes), featuring two tempos per groove (normal and slow). Altogether, this represents over 6 hours of music to work on precision, tempo maintenance, and sound consistency over time.
A particularly effective resource for learning to build complete and credible lines in the spirit of major funk references: James Brown, The Meters, Bootsy Collins, Parliament, The Commodores, Earth, Wind and Fire, Tower of Power, Maceo Parker, The Temptations. Perfect for enriching your playing, strengthening your sense of timing, and gaining ease, whether in rehearsal, studio, or on stage.
