Bass

Bass is the instrument Luke keeps coming back to as connective tissue: on How I Write Bass Parts he explains recording it last so the line answers the lead vocal's phrasing, and Everybody Can Be Dancing Because Counterpoint uses James Jamerson as the model for bass as the glue between drums, melody, and vocal. Bubby Lewis, a Snoop Dogg touring bassist, makes the same case from the stage.

Every place bass turns up across Luke F. Walton's work: 99 songs, 68 episodes, 10 more.
