Description
Learn everything from the birth to evolution of funk!
Funk, a must-have for bassists, features 227 fun phrases to listen to and play. Born in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s, it is one of the original dance music genres, and its elements continue to live on in music today. This book is a comprehensive textbook that provides a comprehensive explanation of the bass in funk.
Funk has undergone many changes as it was born, developed, and evolved as it was absorbed into other genres.
Its characteristics also vary depending on the region of the United States where it originated, so the base of funk takes many different forms.
Influenced by the bass styles of early funk, today's active bassists are reinterpreting and playing funk bass.
This book explains the multifaceted appeal of funk bass.
All 227 phrases that appear in the book are audio-enabled, so you can experience funk rhythms not only by looking at the sheet music but also by listening to them. The reference audio can be downloaded from a special page accessed by a QR code in the book, and can also be played via streaming, so you can easily play them on your smartphone.
This book also explains basic funk techniques such as how to use your hands and how to feel the rhythm, so even bassists who are learning funk from scratch can rest assured.
