What you are describing at around 7:20, re being a tad behind to let the drum transients through first is something that is often simulated in production vis a vis sidechaining a compressor on the bass track that is triggered by the kick. The effect is to lower the volume of the bass at the instant of the kick transient and then let the bass volume bloom back up as the compressor releases. I really enjoyed this video and have shared it with a few friends who have asked me to explain 'the pocket' and playing behind or on top. Thanks!

One of my favorite funk bands, Vulfpeck, actually has its own compressor program that it runs over Joe Dart's bass which (in addition to elevating his already amazing tone to a whole other level) also has the same effect you talk about in this video of making his notes "grow" out of the drum notes. You can hear this very well in Dean Town (obviously most of the work and tone is in Joe's fingers but I just thought it was an interesting thing to share)
@therealkpat11 ай бұрын
As far as I know, in terms sound design with compressors, the amount you can shape the transients by playing with the attack parameter is in the milliseconds. I’m pretty sure what you refer to as Joe’s notes growing out of the drums is 99% to his credit as a great player. I might be wrong of course and the compressor IS the secret sauce
@evieatarax11 ай бұрын
@@therealkpatVulf Compressor is one of the integral parts to Joe's iconic sound. Just like Cory uses a compressor - it's not to compensate for any lack of playing ability, it just makes the transients hit harder and more consistent. The "growing out" is also because of the compressor's relatively long, squishy release time.

I called it the Matt Chamberlain Elasto-Groove. It was definitely a thing. I remember him pecking out a groove on that first Alesis drum machine, and he could make a one-sample drum machine groove the same way with that particular timing of his.

I have a VERY heavy hand. I play through the string to say the least. Have, personally, found my heavy handed style makes it sound like shit when im even slightly behind the beat. A gentle touch makes the bass note swell, a heavy hand is near percussive. I have found I need to push the beat, if anything, to make sure my strikes do not create a jarring double percussive effect. So, with all due respect, I would disagree. A gentle touch lends itself much better to playing behind the beat imo and ime. And yea, The comment in the above vid IS spot on. I do NOT follow my drummers, I drive them. Have not, until this vid, really considered that might be obnoxious as hell to them. None have yet complained, but it is very subtle so they may not even be aware I'm doing it.

Me and the drummer (who was a major in composing at musical college) analyzed that the deal was him trying to play as "early" as possible, without "speeding up" and my job, as the bassist, was to try to beat him constantly. That´s basically the opposite of what You´re demonstrating in this video, but it worked very well (as it did for the Police). Greeting from Sweden!

It makes the beat feel so janky in a cool funky way.

When I was a teenager, I read a guitar magazine interview where the interviewee was talking about how they like the bass Behind The Beat. I spent years wondering if he meant behind as in after, or supporting, but my first interpretation was a timing difference. I'm not sure if I ever play behind the beat, but I do sometimes play in a sort of back-time where I'll call attention to a melody or line by not falling on the beat. I guess that would be behind. This makes me think of BBE Sonic Maximizers and how they offset the mids by a bit to make them more audible among the bass frequencies.

I'm reality interested in this as a drummer. This is what creates feel, although not just behind, but ahead and dead on too. I put one of what I think is the best rock grooves I ever played through Reason's loop slicing thing, Dr Rex, and found that two of my BD beats were hugely beginner the beat. It gave those beats a lot of weight and gave the song its groove. Learning to play reggae taught me more than anything else about placement, because it does a mix of all of them. In my earlier days, in a jazz rock band, I played ahead a lot. The only trouble was that everyone was trying to catch up and the songs invariably sped up. The advice you give here, to aim for on the beat and you'll find your groove, is spot on. It's the hardest thing to analyse and teach and it's where music notation falls down, I think it comes naturally once you've got enough precision. On another subject altogether and besides I couldn't find anywhere appropriate to put it, I never hear Alphonso Johnson mentioned. I've always admired him, particularly on Black Market by Weather Report. Am I alone in that our have I just missed the posts where he did get mentioned? Anyway, thanks, as always, for an entertaining and informative video.

I'm a guitarist, and my drummer locks in with my guitar the way most drums lock in with bass. It's great, I'll do a little accent and he'll do the counterpart on the drums as if he's playing guitar through the drum sticks. All my recordings are with midi drums though so there's less drum dynamics, but I found that I can imply dynamics by changing up the guitar (eg, I have one song that drops down and gets quiet, then builds up loud again. The drums never change but they sound like they're getting more aggressive over time due to the guitars).
