As bass players, we already knew that, right? And of course, audiences FEEL it.
Science proves that the bass is the most important instrument in any music, not just Rock-n-Roll, according to research.
In a recent piece by Rachel Khona over at Simplemeost.com cites several studies by prestigious scientific institutions, including The National Academy of Sciences, McMaster University and Northwestern University, all of which found that the bass is by far the key factor in musical structure.
Even more interesting is how the bass influences just how confident and alive people feel when listening to a song with heavy bass lines.
Wanna feel more powerful, like a superhero or even a rock star? Listen to the bass. Better yet, play the bass!
