Analyzing My LIVE Licks – Gospel Bass
🎯Ever wonder what goes through a bassist’s head while they’re playing live? In this video, we break down a real-time performance and walk through exactly what’s happening musically—from the pulse and feel of the groove to the theory behind the fills.
🎯We’re playing in Eâ™, but the approach works in any key and on any bass—4, 5, or 6 string. You’ll see how starting from the sixth scale degree (C) opens up modal options like Aeolian, and how to think in terms of arpeggios and scale degrees on the fly.
🎯Whether you’re new to theory or just want to sharpen your musical instincts, this is a powerful example of how to hear the music before you play it.
