Joy Crookes - When You Were Mine

For some reason, I really like the song's arrangement and the "nonchalant" bass-line from that song.
The notes of the bass-line (at the surface) are simple, but it has a little bit more "rhythmic-melodic" nuances that open up in a mode of slow listening, but I'm still trying to catch up with the song's bass micro groove.
Joy Crookes is somewhere along Raye's or Maeta's style.

Currently transcribing another one from that album: "Feet don't fail me now"

Currently transcribing another one from that album: "Feet don't fail me now"

I'm trying to grasp the "vision/mentality" of that bass micro-groove from "When You were mine."
Here is a live rendition of that song without any drums/percussion.

P.S. I think the bass player is not the same one from the recording (due to some bass-line nuances.)
