I. Performance Notes
On this track from the O(+>Interactive CD-ROM, O(+> or Sonny T is
playing a five string bass. However, I have no such instrument, and therefore
have simulated a five string bass by tuning the low E string of my four string
bass to D.
A live version of this track from the KTS bootleg "Welcome 2 The
Beautiful Experience," features very similar playing. The only difference is
a slightly more aggressive tone, achieved by using the slap and pop technique,
on the chorus section of the song.
At the start of the song, Rhythm Figure 1 is played by the guitar two
times before the bass enters. The bass enters at 00:23, playing Rhythm Figure
1. The guitar solo section is carried by the bass. This progression looks
like this:
1. INTRO section
2. VERSE section (w/o the
last measure)
3. VERSE section (w/o the
last measure)
The Outro, instead of being another rhythm figure, is simply two notes that
signal the end of the song.
