i spent a long time trying to learn this one and along the way i realized it worked on a reggae groove without a lot of alteration! who am i to turn down a call from the Muse? :) recording sequence: 1) bongo "live click track", 2) synth piano with phaser effect, 3) bassline (using a 5-string Sadowsky bass guitar tuned BEADG, strung with flatwounds), 4) melody (using a 5-string G&L bass guitar tuned EADGC)... mixed using Audacity... tracks recorded in one take, with no looping, quantization, metronome, click, warping, time stretching, etc.
