Wrong Notes for Better Bass Lines
►FREE Book: https://HackMusicTheory.com/Books
Learn how to spice up your bass lines with notes that are not in the key (AKA non-diatonic / chromatic).
HACK
With this hack you’ll be taking your bass into dangerous territory: the notes outside your scale. We’re in D minor here, so by moving this C up to C♯, we’re going out of our key. We’re also gonna move this G up a semitone, and this G down a semitone. These three out-of-key notes should sound wrong, but they don’t. Why? Because they’re quick, and they’re not on the main beats.
