Good things to learn on bass.

[Megahurtz400]

Ive borrowed my mates bass for a while, as im thinking of learning it properly and now im after things to learn.

Im after quite simple but cool sounding bass lines from any song

So far, since wednesday, with the help of tabs ive learnt:

N.E.R.D - She wants to move
Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc
Feeder - Buck Rogers
White Stripes - Seven Nation Army

Any ideas what i should learn?

 

[Andelusion]

Get some Jamiroquai and Tower of Power

 

[Cosmic182]

a bit of rancid is always fun on the bass

Dry Cleaner From Des Moines by Pastorius and The Awakening (bent harmonics, y0!) by Les Claypool.

Offspring - Da Hui, just for the intro alone.

 

[SpicyDuck]

Daft Punk - Around the World

That song has about 3-4 very simple but funky basslines with very subtle differences each time they're played.

Daft Punk - Around the World

That song has about 3-4 very simple but funky basslines with very subtle differences each time they're played.

That is actually very awesome

Got to try it

 

[Skeptic]

Du Du Du Du, Du Du Du DE du.

Pink Floyd - Money
MJ - Beat It

 

[Zefan]

RATM - any song really.

Hysteria by Muse would be good to play, but I think it's a constant rhythm and not much too it so if you can get the song with the bass cut out and play your bass guitar with the mp3/cd then that'll work well

 

[JoDaMa]

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Walkabout

 

[SexyGreyFox]

Start with the basics and learn ACDC.
You will only be playing the note of A but to keep perfect time is a skill in itself.

 

[Robosapien]

some notes

 

[georges]

Jamiroquai - Too young to die
""- Travelling without moving.
""- Whatever it is, I just can't stop it

Rage against the machine - bombtrack

At the Drive-In - Quarantined

 

[Tauren_Banu]

Fingersmoran, though maybe not
