    Great video. I remember when the D'Angelo album came out and playing behind the beat really came into the forefront. I agree, once you get it its hard to turn it off. I usually don't take it the extreme since I am not playing Neo Soul but it works in moderation in many other styles.

    Be careful where/when you use this concept. A lot of people strictly want to hear bass on or on-top of the beat, and won't understand what you're doing or why, which can be misconstrued as having "bad time".

    It sounds more locked when it’s slightly behind almost like a whip between drum and bass. When it’s right on the beat the bass over shadows the drum and they sound separate rather than together

      This is true. I think there is a space where we can respect why certain musicians choose their axes. 4 is the OG, 5 added more range for low end, 6 added ease to play chords and leads in a higher register etc. I respect each person's individual preference. Thanks for sharing.

      Honestly, it takes trial and error like most things. I would say play behind to the extreme, and then begin to dial it back closer to the beat. If you look up artists in the Neo Soul, Gospel or even Jazz genres, you will come across records where this will become more evident.
