No. 23 What’s The Use – Thundercat
Great bassline from the Mac Miller tune “What’s the use” off the album “Swimming” (2018). I transcribed the basic bassline thundercat plays on the NPR Tiny Desk Concert although he adds little variations to it through the song.
No. 22 Down South – Robert “Sput” Searight
A little transcription of something what you might call breakdown section. Found it on youtube. I thought transcribing it would help me with my time because i got a bit confused by the 16th syncopation when i heard it first. I am no drummer so the notation might be a bit strange. If you find any mistakes please let me know!

Transcription of a line played by Bud Powell on the Rhythm Changes tune “Bud’s Bubble” from the record: The Bud Powell Trio (Roost RLP 412).
