You can't understand funk bass if you don't understand the rhythm that built it. We're tracing the lineage of funk straight back to Congo Square in New Orleans to look at the three things that make funk basslines actually work: polyrhythm, call and response, and syncopation. The bass in funk isn't just following the drums β it's a tuned drum itself.
