[Fingerprint Audio]

actually,if you really want to get odd with your basslines,try a combining scales everymeasure,on a 4/4 standard beat on every other 16th note.....   john btw,does anyone know of any resources on the net for scales?i am trying to find some very exotic scaling and i don't want to shell out 30-40 bucks a book.... ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 12:57 PM Subject: [dnb-prod] Re: Funk Scales Nice one, I'll try that - is this a pentatonic scale?  Most funk is based on the "blues" scale (that's MOST, not all).  C blues is thus: C Eb F Gb G Bb C You can transpose that to any key, using this pattern of half steps to build: 3, 2, 1, 1, 3, 2.  So another example would be: F Ab Bb Cb C Eb F The fourth note of the scale can be notated one of two ways.  F# in the first, or just B in the second. Depends on how anal you want to be about notation, which I assume you wouldn't want to be anal about at all. --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Drum&Bass Arena Producers Discussion List http://www.breakbeat.co.uk You are currently subscribed to dnb-prod as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
