songs with surprisingly good bass lines

[Funky Ghost]

@aaronious The bass line is pretty bangin. I almost didn't hear it... I damn near turned it off before the bass kicked in. I lasted about 3 bars. Not even the bass could make me endure that garbage any longer.

 

[Badwater]

Here's a good one.

The bass is INCREDIBLE when the song gets cooking in the second half. And the tone just kicks ass.

And one of my top ten songs ever.

 

[ThudThudThud]

Here's one that I've heard a million times but only recently realized how cool the bassline and bass tone were.

That is possibly my favourite song of all time. Almost a perfect pop song. Happening bass line.

 

[LBS-bass]

Maybe not too surprising, but I've always loved the bass on this song:

Since Badwater posted a cool "Jam In The Van" track, I'm going to post another. This tune is from Amy Helm's 2015 debut solo release, "Didn't It Rain." The bass player is Byron Isaacs.

 

[Altitude]

Whenever I hear this Charlie Puth song coming out of my 14 year-old daughter's bedroom I have to stop and listen to it for a minute.



Actually there's pretty solid playing on his entire album. No idea who the guy is.

 

[Badwater]

Back in the day hip hop or Rap had real bass.
