I want to transcribe Beyonce's Deja-Vu and Timberlake's Rock Your Body, and I don't know who are the bass players that recorded / played their bass lines.
Do you know? I think it should be written on the CD Booklet, I don't have them.
Does somebody know?
Thanks!

So? Does nobody have the booklet?

(the neptunes + another dude)? the first album was recorded with a band (Spymob) and the second one pharrell, chad, and shay played most of the instruments. |

Thanks a lot.

i was referring to DA BEATS that they produce for other artists, such as
Britney Spears - I'm a Slave 4 U
Mystikal - Shake Your Ass
Noreaga - Nothin
Busta Rhymes - Light Your Ass on Fire
Nelly - Hot in Here
etc etc etc etc..... sooo many hit songs, not a single one with live bass (that I know of, can't say I've heard EVERY Neptunes track), and hardly any with real instruments |

The Madonna gig would be excellent for something like that....and would pay well too....
