RE: Slight of Band
Chem bro's do this at the start of 'Got Glint', the bass starts,
then the BD comes in on what appears to be the off beat,
in the middle of the intro they open up the gate on the bass
so that it begins to fall on the proper 8th.
Confusing the listener is under-rated, think of Doom's night (Azzidodabass),
The LFO on the Bass is on a 3/4 beat, not a beat I'd use often.
Then drums come in as below, this is sort of across b/w a 2-step and a house
beat. 2step beats emphasis is on the snare (beats 2 and 4).
SD: ---- x--- ---- x---
BD: x--- ---- x-x-- ----
But the whole thing doesn't fit untill the another Bass comes (more like a walking bass) which emphasises the 1 and 3: Notice that this bass doesn't overlap with the beat, 'xcept on these beats.
Simple but brilliant.
