Butterfly Kiss Bass cover (with tabs) - Persona 5 (Clinic Theme)

The Persona 5 soundtrack is great !
Now, playing this track doesn't feel too difficult, but when I first tried to learn it a while ago, it did feel much more difficult. By making this video, I hope I can help newer playing like the one I used to be to learn a pretty cool bassline too.
Sheet / tab available here :
drive.google.c...
(Also I just noticed I left "Polyrhythmic Bridge" in the tab, when as far as I know, it's not polyrhythmic but polymeter...ic ? )

For the 6/8 and 4/4 section, the 8th notes align for all the instruments, so you can try to use the 8th notes for time, even if the downward don't match up. It takes 3 bars for the downbeats to line up, and one after is when it switches back. It's one of those things you have to feel, but learning how to feel the count structure by seeing what matches in the parts helps

That transition where the drums catch back up to the rest of the band after being in 6/8 is so tough to get the timing right on. I always come in too early

[@adriensquickcovers]

Sorry for the late reply ! As I said in the video, I don't really have a particular tip to help, unfortunately. Maybe you can more or less "ignore" the drums, as the time signature for the bass doesn't change ?

[@joshcat7042]

damn your visualisation of the polymeter was really cool

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you ! It's been a while now, but I remember I counted the frames of the video to find the best approximation to fit with the beat of the music. I'm glad others can appreciate it !

[@rickadias]

Really good video dude!! Not only you had clean tabs but also added some cool tips! Thanks a ton for this. Keep up the good work. =)

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you ! I always feel like when it comes to teaching, it is more efficient to give at least a few pointers rather than just raw information 🙂 I'm glad you found this useful !

[@omegacanon]

This is some of the most effective pedagocial editing ive ever seen for a game music track on youtube. And i saw that later you began adding the score. Well done!

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you ! I feel like it is worth giving some advice / make some comments on what to play rather than just showing the score like "there, just play this". You take it or leave it, but at least it's there, and it might be useful for some people. 🙂 Anyway, thank you again !

“Idk how to help you I’m faking it Adam Neely wouldn’t be happy” lmaooooo😂😂😂

[@adriensquickcovers]

Please don't send him this video, or he will scold me 😭

[@valoriiz]

really cool bass

[@emiink]

This is really helpful, thank you!

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you, I'm glad I can be of any help !

[@anabsurdkitten623]

the bit about Adam Neely had me laughing way too hard

[@r34dood]

I don’t even play bass but that was a good video

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you so much ! I'm glad not only bass players can enjoy a video I made 🙂

[@girxchin]

back to good ol' 4/4

[@krank5793]

great tutorial my man, I really appreciate it

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you, hope you have a great time learning this tune !

[@rafael502]

Thanks! Pretty easy than expected.

[@adriensquickcovers]

It's not especially complex, but it can bea little bit tricky to play... Still, it's a cool bass line. Glad I could be of help ! 🙂

[@okenki]

very cool! the kyary pamyu pamyu t-shirt! very cool too!!!

[@adriensquickcovers]

Oooh, you noticed !! It's a precious memory for me, because I bought it when I first saw her about 10 years ago, maybe ? 😊

[@okenki]

@@adriensquickcovers me too! i think during her EU 2012 tour haha! i'm a huge fan!!

[@brunoyudi5023]

Amazing work

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you ! I'm glad you liked it 🙂

[@Gwyn1stborn]

Playing the guitar part is so fun, you just 4/4 your way thru the catch-up

[@adriensquickcovers]

The thing that trips me up is to know when to play those syncopated three notes in 4/4 when the only reference you have are drums in 6/8 😅

[@mariabrandao5559]

Thank you so much, I loved your humor hahah

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you ! I hope people can have a good time while learning a thing or two 👍

[@truong8199]

very cool 😄

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you very much ! I hope it can be useful to people who want to learn the bass line 🙂

[@Direwoof]

Am I a heretic for playing jazzy/funky stuff with a pick? I think it sounds good. I suck at plying with fingee.

[@adriensquickcovers]

I don't think it is wrong to play with a pick, no. I do think it is an advantage to know different techniques to play, because it opens up different sounds and nuances, but I'm sure you can have plenty of nuance playing with a pick too 👍 So don't worry, you do you !

[@noobguymanj6851]

ts so fire

[@adriensquickcovers]

Thank you so much 😭🙏

[@arbdistress5592]
