I’ve recently started taking some new medication called Abilify to stabilise my moods. Because I can go from one extreme to the other quite rapidly, I need something that holds me in the centre. I’m now finding out what my baseline actually feels like.
Baseline.
Devoid of the funk of a Bootsy Collins fretboard exploration.
Less prominent that a Flea hook that explodes across the universe.
But thankfully not the drudge the stoic blues rundown.
More than a one note root note three-chord
This baseline is there all the time.
Hidden in the mix.
Simple, subtle, but not entirely dulled.
More Wire than Sting. More Lemmy than Entwistle.
My baseline is a constant.
