In-Depth Look At Crafting Rhythmic Funk Lines

Playing repetitive, single-note lines as a rhythm guitar part is commonly referred to as a “bubble part.” Widely used in funk, soul and classic R&B music, bubble parts are also often used in blues, rock, country, and pop tunes. Note selection, rhythmic approaches, melodic composition, and of course, groove are all critical considerations when composing your own bubble parts for a particular tune. In short, a bubble part that locks into the pocket.

As you play your way through Carl Burnett’s Funk House: Bubble Parts, you’ll dive deep into all of the essential ingredients for crafting the perfect bubble part that locks into the pocket, for any style of music. Carl will also show you how to layer multiple bubble parts for added harmonies and rhythmic effects.

”In the first section of the course we’ll explore bubble parts from 4 popular classic and contemporary songs. And then in the second section, we will craft original bubble parts together and play them over 6 more backing tracks in a variety of feels, tempos, and keys.”

Carl will explain and demonstrate all of the key concepts and approaches along the way. You’ll get standard notation and tabs for all of the performance studies. Plus, you’ll be able to use TrueFire’s learning tools to sync the tab and notation to the video lesson. You can also loop or slow down the videos so that you can work with the lessons at your own pace. All of the backing tracks are included to work with on your own as well.

Grab your guitar and let's get in the pocket with Carl Burnett!
