Use the scales you practice! This trick will immediately open up a chord into a scale for you! Example scale: Eb mixolydian!
Transcription:
One minute scale practice with Ari, installment #1.
Take any scale you want to learn - let's say Eb mixolydian. What you do is you take a triad inside that scale [Ari plays triad] - just the triad: root-three-five and then eight. And then you play a little embellishment from every single one of those triad notes: up one, whole step down (because it's mixolydian, right). Then from the Three: 3-4-3-2-3. Five: 6-5-4-5. and 8-b7-8.
If you do that, you hit every single scale degree. [Ari plays it all] and is eminently practical because the chord's gonna say Eb7 for example, and all you need to know is the triad notes - one up, one down from there.

Better than simply learning a bass line of a song is learning FROM the song: What makes this bass line so cool and how can you create something in the same vein?
A producer may well say: play in the style of...! Take it a step further and check out one of my methods to learn from the song and play in the style of. My sample groove is a Stealers Wheel song.

Song learning tip with Ari: When you want to learn a song you want to go beyond just copying down what the song does. You want to be able to play it in all sorts of areas on the bass. You want to be able to play it in various keys, but more importantly, you want a really dissect it musically.
What makes this song so special? Why is it so famous? Why does it fit the song so well? And then you want to even go beyond that - you want to figure out what makes that bass line special and how can I be inspired by it to make it not only part of a set list but part of my real musical repertoire.
Theres so many ways you can do that. One technique, for example that I like to use is what I call the Reduction. We take a groove and we try to figure out what it is that makes that groove. We look at the context of it. We look at the key. We look at the theory and all that but then most importantly, what can we do so that we make it ours, beyond just learning it verbatim.
Stuck in the Middle, for example, has this groove [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ] If I take that groove and break it down into its most important components, I might get this [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
Out of that, I am distilling [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ] The slash notation, I would say could be up for interpretation. What would you come up with? For example, lets use this reduction and notes from the major triad in addition [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
I freely improvise over the rhythm giving myself that particular concept. How about chromaticism? [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
How about octaves? [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
Octaves and chromaticism [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
Roots and fifths [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
You can use something like this as a springboard for ideas, but also in a studio, a producer might ask you to play in the style of a particular song or a particular bass player and this is one good way to come up with ideas that fit [ 🎵 🎵 🎵 ]
