Maybe the chillest MonoNeon bassline you'll hear... | Real Nice Moment - KNOWER [bass transcription]
Музыка
Just listened to KNOWER's latest banger of an album, and the bass wizard MonoNeon threw down (chill-ly) on this track. So I transcribed it.

He has such a smooth groove, combined with Louis' drums this has to be one of the strongest modern rhythm sections ever

Cole and Artadi absolutely kill it with their bands. Sam Wilkes is up there too.
This man is left handed playing a right handed bass, that blows my mind. Mad respect

You should check out Eric Gales. He does the same thing with guitar and I still don't understand how he plays the way he does with upside down strings.

i do the same thing as mono! a lot of left handed people get right handed instruments because they are cheaper since there is more demand or the instrument is a hand-me-down

i still need to check out his solo stuff but before i do that i need to highly suggest you check out the rest of his work with KNOWER. He was incredible in their latest album "KNOWER FOREVER" which is where this song comes from. Enjoy!
Two months of listening to this song every day. Thank you so much for inspiring me and my close people with this album specially with this song. Greetings from Centralamerica, CR
Thank you! Love seeing Mononeon's notes and those sweet chord progressions that KNOWER is known for!
Can we take a moment to appreciate the drum fill at 2:06? Louis' feel is unbelievably juicy.
holy shit, im gonna listen to KNOWER and mononeon from now on
You're a genius for transcribing this. Thank you
I came across this randomly through my feed....boy am I glad I did! This is amazing!

Thank you Ben! I had this song on repeat the whole night trying to internalize the bass line to learn it. You have no idea how happy I am to find your transcription! Thank you so much!
That bass really ties the song together dude
Outstanding! Absolutely lovely!! 🤩
hats off to you Ben! This is my new favorite song
I read along as I watched and looks like you did a real nice job with the 16th note subdivision. Looking forward to tackling this. Great lo-fi behind the beat bass style i need to learn. Thanks
Thanks for the transcription. This groove is the most beautiful and badass thing I've heard all year.
The whole album goes so hard. Big fan
This, this right here. Best stuff out there
This sounds so blissful wow. This is the kind of music I need in my games🤙
A+++ drums.
This is some of the best music ever made. The melody, the groove, the vibe, the charm and the beauty.
I love this smooth beat 💓
I came for the sound and stayed for the story.
YES Knower and NEON!!!

If everything is pitched 60 cents down, does that mean Louis wrote it in that detuned piano? 🤯 Or he tuned that piano like this for the song which is also top tier.

I was under the assumption that they pitched everything down in post… but if Louis detuned the piano he’s a legend!

What sort of weird tuning does Rai use, is it just sort of wobbling, or ist constantly slightly above the standard?

Hi, where can I find the transcription to Real Nice Moment?
Your all is like a good dream ( :
Yeah
Do you have a mix with more bass?
Who sampled this? I’ve heard those vocals in a hip-hop track I’m sure
I think it s to keep tuned in any weather condition...
2:55 God mode pocket appears
Is everything on this song a micro tone down? It sounds like its right in the middle of notes.

I think it fits perfectly with the song. Not too busy but has some really tasteful licks. Also he's playing super locked in on the backside of the drum groove and that is cool!

@YTSparty@@BenLewisTranscribes If you listen real closely, Louis and Rai are deliberately playing just a "smidge" (is that a musical term??) behind the beat. Mononeon, seems to be playing right on the beat for the most part - bringing the ultimate stank funk by emphasizing the "1"!

Ya you won't see the magic in the notation. It's in the way nothing is in time but it's all in perfect time.
I don't think it's 16th note swing, it's a quintuplet swing, so each beat is subdivided into 5, and accented on the 3rd and 5th of those subdivisions.
@NZsaltz

16th note swing is just referring to the 16th notes being swung, not the amount of swing, and frankly I don't think the swing is calculated. It's way too fast to accurately do that, especially listening to the ghost notes in the drum groove. They're probably just feeling it.
this plays like a domi and jd beck ballad for some reason and I absolutely dig it
Not my favorite tune of theirs lately (I like crash the car more) but great transcription
WHY HE HAS A SOCK ON HIS BASS 😭😭😭😭
I don’t dig the vocals or the sax. Not saying they aren’t talented. I just would have preferred a different flavor with the music. The sax felt forced, even though they held it back in the mix (good choice). And the vocals made me uncomfortable. It was generic, if that makes sense. Just my opinion.
