Walking Bassline Challenge Episode 5 (of 8)
In order to accomplish that we will have to break it down into the tiniest bits, isolating each technique or skill, and gradually put it back together.
Today, we’re just gonna take what we did last time, and glue it together.
We’ll start by practicing it in pairs, just like we did in lesson number three. It’s the exact same thing except now we’re doing the roots and the “alts” (alternate bass notes).
We start off, going from A to D. Then, from A to E. We do it with both a simplified pattern and with our actual pattern. And that’s it!
