One of the keys to putting together a
good bass line is making sure they're linear
meaning that they don't jump
around and skip around a lot
You don't want to put together a walking bass line
where you kind of like....
I've actually heard some bass players do that.
I really have. It's not good.
Keep you lines so they go just like this - up and
down hill, up and down hill.
If you want to break it up a little bit make sure
there's a pattern
inside of what you're doing so it makes some sense.
I'll break it up a little bit.
Even when I'm making the jump, I keep it linear from there.
