About this riff
The bass part drives the song's reggae-funk feel with a bouncy, syncopated line that locks tightly with the drums and marimba, leaving space on the offbeats in true reggae fashion. It's worth learning for the timing and pocket discipline it demands: notes are muted and clipped, so playing it well is more about rhythmic feel and rests than fast fingering. Getting the groove right at 131 BPM teaches solid control of dynamics and staccato phrasing.
Did you know?
"Master Blaster (Jammin')" is a direct tribute to Bob Marley, written after Stevie Wonder had been performing live alongside him, which is why the whole track is built around a heavy reggae feel unusual for Wonder's catalog.
