The guy said bass line not leads/mid range.
Wikipedia says wrote:Sub-bass is a term used to describe audible sounds below 90 Hz and extending downward to include the lowest frequency humans can hear, typically 20 Hz. Sound systems often feature one or more subwoofer loudspeakers that are dedicated solely to amplifying sounds in the sub-bass range.
and also says
100-300 hertz is referred to as 'bass'.
300–5000 hertz is known as a mid-range or 'lead frequency'.
Bass doesnt just mean sub, from a like, strict dictionary standpoint. to write off the existence of anything but the lowest of low basses... Its skipping an entire range of instruments and lumping them in the treble clef where they dont belong. The way you say it, bass guitars, second brass, bass organ, ect might as well not exist, or rather have been misunderstood since the days of classical music understanding, and are in fact leads.
u have to know that even after seeing the youtube stuff, some people come here and ask...
often, not always but often, it has to do with an attitude they have towards learning, way more then with the actual sound they want to learn... and posting a youtube vid often doesnt cut it.
besides, most of these vids have been posted... and we do have a STICKYED permanent post about skrillex basslines, where these vids are way more suitable...
what people really value around here is ur artistic considerations on these basslines, and ur views etc... + ur UNDERSTANDING of certain concepts... that'll help someone improve.
they all have access to youtube and u will get e-bullied if u post videos unless they're dead on the subject...
i do think its a cool vid to some extend... but i just thought it didnt answer the question... especially after the other posts above.
/my very subjective opinion
