moog-only bass pattern walking root-5-b7-root in Bb minor — bernie worrell's expressive monosynth phrasing. add drive to taste.

02
dub · lee scratch territory76 bpm
jamaican dub / roots reggae · Lee Scratch Perry · 1976
76bpm. sparse 909 (kick 1, snare 3) + sustained moog sub on 1 of each bar. delay carries the song — that's the whole lesson. delay + plate on by default. drive optional for that ratty bbd character.

03
trap · 808 sub + half-time140 bpm
atlanta trap · Lex Luger / Metro Boomin era · 2011
half-time pocket at 140 (feels like 70). kick on 1+3, snare on 3 only, hi-hat 16ths with a triplet roll. moog 808-sub slides root → 5. tape on for cohesion. this is the atlanta template.

04
grandmother · dub jam78 bpm
kingston dub · King Tubby / Lee Scratch Perry territory · 1975
78bpm dub pocket with the moog grandmother on sub-bass duty. 909 kick on 1 + snare on 3, hat lift on the and-of-4. delay + plate on so the snare blooms into the next bar. swap moog→hookesub via the override panel to hear nick's actual analog grandmother on the bass.
