re: music theory and other geek speak (Song writing) altered bass

DP (noetical1) - 29 Jun 2005 16:46:30

Gavin:
another interesting compositional technique is to use
"altered" bass lines...playing "related" bass notes instead
of "root" bass notes...
for example:
on guitar play these chords: G C D
on bass play: C F A or G F D or G C A
from the bassline, you can develop new guitar chord
sequences...
man, the theory suggestions are flying fast and furious
today....excellent stuff!
