Learn Urban Gospel Bass Guitar - Learn Tritones on the Bass

[TeddyMeyerPhoto]

A Tritone is a Augmented 4th Interval. If you're in E, and you go down a whole step before counting up 3 whole steps its not a tritone > its going up 2 whole steps. If your're in E, the tritone is A#, You can just Augment the 4th or count 3 Whole Steps ( hence the term Tri-Tone).

Thats the Gospel.

It's highly ironic that the focus of these gospel videos is the "tritone", which was the singularly banned musical phenomena by Christianity, and was known as "the devils interval". I am so happy that people aren't so stupid anymore. Not trolling or being silly - I am a very happy subsciber - but I just find that fact to be quite interesting as I get more into the history and theory of music.

@Craptron2000 yea but im pretty sure it was the old 16th century churches. i could be wrong.

[jeffspan5]

A tritone is two notes that are an augmented (sharp) fourth or a diminished (flat) fifth away from each other. It is between the third and the seventh of a dominant seventh chord. A double stop is just when you play two notes at once.

[mrjamerican1]

what isa double stop then?

[mrjamerican1]

Some please tell me what is the difference from tritones and double stops.

[egatx]

Bassman, use that pinky doc....

[cjtoota1]

makes me want to two step like grandad!

[herrheine]

Nope. A tri-tone is not three tones. A tri-tone is an interval of three whole steps. It's the classic dom7th sound. In C, the tritone would be E (3) and Bb (b7). The trick with using tritones in gospel and jazz settings is that you can use the same tritone for a chord substitution. So Gb7 could sub for C7 because they share the E and Bb tritone. The tritone sub in this example would be Bb7 instead of E7.

@herrheine I stand corrected... Thanks for clearing that up. Also called the Aug 4th or dim 5th intervals

[maxomilian]

thats what he said , he just didnt use the correct terminology.

[Wonderboi80]

Like Michealadamrogers said, that slide is more so a double stop than a tri-tone. Tri-tone means 3 tones. They are calling it a tri-tone on the bass because the root note is implied. In other words, you know the root note is E, it's just not being played. I'm really enjoying the videos.

[michaeladamrogers]

I thought what you are referring to as "Tri-tones" are in fact "double stops"

[luchu18]

Thats really tight!

[samierwilliams]
