Eighth notes are the foundation of every groove, and this lesson breaks them down inside the Groove Architecture framework until the rhythm actually clicks. We go from counting out loud to feeling the beat, add the metronome, and build melodic fills using the flat seven, minor third, and fourth over a rhythmic framework. If you've been playing by feel and want rhythm to actually make sense, this one's for you.

Groove School is about SYSTEMS so that *you* can take agency over your bass playing journey.
