Synth bass is such an underrated skill. Most bass players shy away from it, and try to "fake" it using effects pedals, while the ones who can play both bass guitar and synth bass are busy doing high-profile gigs with major artists.
@@NicolasMelis I started playing piano/keyboards when I was 12. Then I picked up bass guitar when I was 23 (I'm 51 now). It only took me like 6 weeks to learn how to play well enough to play out with others in public. If you play synth bass with your left hand primarily, that translates so easily into fretting movements. You already know how basslines work in the musical/rhythmic/harmonic sense, so that's half the battle already! All you need to learn is the fretboard (way easier than on a guitar) and developing plucking/picking/slapping technique.
I'm an (amateur) keyboard player, I love black and white keys but I think the soul of any song are drums and bass. When I see the white and black keys generate a sequence and rhythm as you know how to use them, I get shivers! Voyager and Dark'n Lovely are great, THANK YOU!
Actually i just wanted to make a video about playing these synth bass lines:) It wasn't my intention to imply that they were played on the exact same synths I used, which is unlikely anyway :)
Chaka Khan is definitely on my top 10-list aswell as Madonna. I would love to hear your take on ABC - Look Of Love and Imagination - Music & Lights aswell as Tom Browne - Funkin' For Jamaica N.Y. Cheers from Sweden! 🎹🎶🔉
@@NicolasMelis I would love to hear a part 2. Btw, this version of ABC's Look Of Love is my favorite when it comes to the bass line. ruclips.net/video/qq3AfK-klKc/видео.html
After i posted my first reply to your clip i have come up with a few more great tunes with amazing synth bass lines. First is another Chaka Khan song Best In The West which has much of the same flavour as We Can Work It Out. ruclips.net/video/RMiAl8qwJM4/видео.html Another song with an amazing bass line is probably less known among most people but for me it is one of the great 80's amazing tunes with an amazing break where the synth bass goes bananas. Candela is the name of the group and the song is Love You Madly and it is produced by Amir Bayyan who formerly went by the name Kevin Bell and was known for being a member of Kool & The Gang along with his two brothers Robert "Kool" Bell and Ronald Bell. ruclips.net/video/1HtyHI0Z9mo/видео.html Finally i also came to think about a song from the early 90's which is Don't Wanna Fall In Love with Jane Child. It may not have the same distinct kind of bass line like the others but it is still what makes the song tick in my opinion. ruclips.net/video/zWd__w5UWVc/видео.html
I ❤ synth bass! Btw: Anthony Marinelli just released a video about the “Into The Groove“ bass, but he used a Minimoog. Is there any reliable information what was really employed in the original?
Great skills, and lovely to watch. How did you learn these? I have a book Learn Funk Keyboards (or something like that) and I recognise the Parliament one from the chapter on synth bass. But the rest I don't recognise.
Very nice on the keys! I love the feel! Could you please find that bass sound from the Moog that Gap Band uses on Burn Rubber on Me. I know you could not only program it but kill it on the keys! Thanks in advance!
Thanks for contact!!!pitchwheel needs a "lovely feel"....have a nice weekend!and love music..PS. if you are close to germany,Hamburg,take contact..!!!!
I didn’t say that they were played on the instruments i ve played here. Just wanted to make a video with some synth bass lines i like playing! Thanks for the info though
Thumbs down for getting the bass line to Into the Groove wrong. In fairness, it's a hard one to get right, but this IS a video dedicated to showing how famous bass lines are played.

Your ability to stay in pocket with a great groove is amazing. Keyboards are truly percussion instruments.
Glad you like it! Thank you 🙏🎹

Keep 'em coming!
thank you! i will try 🎹🙏
Daft Punk has some of my favorite basses of all time, you recreated Voyager perfectly :)
Thank you!! Appreciated 🎹
I like how you showed what synth was (likely) used. If you could show a picture of the patch settings too would be awesome

@@oliverschweers8725 i did study in Leipzig classical piano performance ! Long time to come there though :)
I like to make a correction. Into the Groove was neither a moog or a juno. It was an MKS-80
I didn’t say that they were played on the instruments i ve played here. Just wanted to make a video with some synth bass lines i like playing! Thanks for the info though
NEW VID!
А где Imagination "Just an illusion"?🥺
Into the groove was a Moog Source
I would love to have a moog source but i dont :)
Pitch..i ment..sorry ..😮😮
Got you! No worries :)
This is a use of the word "famous" that I am not familiar with. Nice playing though.
Thanks! Yeah, those are some of my fav :)
Funky. Famous?
😁😁

Into the groove is a slight rip off of Shannon let the music play.
Then you do right it and upload it. Show us your expertise.
We can work it out from CK WAY over the rest!
Love it !! Love CK
I totaly agree!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS AMAZEBALLZ!!!!!
