| | Hip-Hop Bass
Hip-hop music was born in the mid 1970s on the streets of New York City. Artists like Public Enemy, Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five, The Sugar Hill Gang and others assembled various rhythms, beats, and song samples into a form which they rapped lyrics to or performed a melody over. Tapes of these performances spread to the west coast and the south where other artists added their unique twists to the music to create the various styles of Hip-hop that is popular.
In this book/CD package from Hal Leonard's "Bass Builders" series, renown bassist Josquin des Pres provides 101 authentic hip-hop bass lines spanning 25 years of urban music and covering East Coast, West Coast and Down South styles. Each of these slammin' patterns is written in standard notation and also in tablature. This somewhat organic approach to bass includes an accompanying CD with 98 full-demo tracks of all the patterns in the book. You'll find no techniques or concepts here, just 101 bass grooves you can easily learn to play in the hip-hop bass style!
