Get up and dance (Bass)

By Bass Levite

This song from Hillsong Kids' "Superhero" album has a great bass riff in it! Techno songs like this uses a special bass articulation. See the video below:



1. Long notes (let the notes ring out)
2. Short notes (mute the string after you play a note)
3. Alternating short and long notes (techno style)

It may take some practise to coordinate your left and right hand motion. The prechorus and end of chorus uses this style.
