What's your favorite(s) repeating rhythm?

[Wannabebass]

At work, no access to a program to write the notes ( big brother is ever mindful! ) but I really enjoy Massive Attacks Safe From Harm. The repeating line is of course "borrowed" from Billy Cobhams Stratus.

Best I can cobble together

in 4/4

G|---------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------|
A|-----2-0-2-----0-2-2-0---2-0-2-----0-2-2-0---|
E|------------2----------------------2--------------|

That is hypnotic! If there’s such a thing as a paradiddle on bass that’s it. I’ve never listened to MA before- this track is very reminiscent of thievery corporation to my ears.
