Been listening to a lot of them & Aparat.

Just going over the songs again for tomorrow evening's recording. The bridge in Awake My Soul by Hillsong really goes a Steve Harris galloping bassline. Don't know why they didn't do that instead of the crochets (Maybe that's as fast as the bassist can play? He's their good bassist... He know's 5 notes 😂).

I get that CCW is church pop music, but it’s still no excuse. Pop music can have good music & even break away from a derivative of 1, 4, 5, 6. Theres a lot of great CCW (Elevation have a lot of great stuff), but at the same time, there’s a lot of cookie cutter guff that I dare say much of the congregation don’t particularly like either. Sing his praise again by hillsong is a prime example of this nonsense.

Oddly enough, I was listening to that song last week, along with a few other Ron Kenoly tracks. I don’t get how gospel has amazing musicians, but CCW has some of the lamest To me, praising God should be bringing your best, not your least.

Well seeing I’m not a singer (I can’t sing at all). Though the odd thing is, I’ve never had to change song key in any of the secular bands I’ve played in. 🤔 & I still don’t get why even the female led songs get a key change too when it’s females singing. 😂 Anyway. Here’s someone making a very good point about worship bass in a rather humorous way...

When this came out, Drum n Bass was a fairly new genre. This took it to another level & led the way for countless great mainstream DnB & Breakbeat tracks. LTJ Bukem is also worth a listen, though he’s more towards the jazz side of DnB.

Love Roni Size’s New Forms album. Some great bass lines on there.
-
I still don’t get why the Singists can’t just learn to sing in the original key to save all this bother? Don’t the originals get written in a key that suits the congregation?
-
A couple of the musicians in our church use onsongs. It looks like it could be useful. I usually just Chuck the tracks in Logic & use a pitch changer I still don’t get why every song has to be in a different key from the original, even the ones that are sung by females (it’s all female worship leaders in our church)?
-
That’s happened before. I got the chord charts, which are always in a different key from the originals & likely to change on the day. The saving grace is every worship song we do uses a version of 1, 4, 5, 6. So I’ll probably play some U2 bass lines.

I’m recording 9 songs with a stripped down church band on 1st March. Just got the set list today. 3 of the songs I don’t know. It’d be nice to get the songs a bit earlier so I can actually learn them & not wing it along with a chord chart, but this seems to be the norm with church worship leaders. 😶

Just stumbled upon this chap's youtube stuff last week. Never saw this one though. Cheers.

I’ve played a couple of times to record songs for a month or so’s worth of services. A bunch of us have been doing online meets to write some worship songs too. That’s been fun.
