LESSON DETAILS

Building a Funk Groove

Many funk grooves are based on simply 2-4 measures and contain only a few chords. These short passages can make up entire sections of grooving and soloing. In this lesson, we will show you how to build an entire funk groove using only 2 measures and 2 chords. What’s best is that you will learn to build the groove one instrument at a time, examining the drum part, bass part, and clarinet part. You’ll get a bunch of jam tracks so that you can listen, analyze, and learn each individual part in isolation, and get a comprehensive understanding of how the parts fit and work together.
