The basslines did not directly oppose each other, but the effect was amazing. One side seemed to be double-time compared to the other, but the effect was the same. Dig out that old record if you can (the needle doesn't fly off either).
NONONO, sorry. The song is "I feel love" by Donna Summers.
Listen to that... not the other one. (Jeeze, I'm sure anyone who listened to that expecting the bassline I described would have WTF'd pretty hard.)
Anyway, "I feel love" by Donna Summers. <------Right song. I'm just hoping she didn't do many mixes (it was on a "single" LP.)

Ah, but then would it not be easier to just eschew creativity altogether and throw down an off-beat bassline, thus voiding this thread as a whole?
Hey I'm not disagreeing with you at all. I only answered to your question.

Good question!
I *heart* acid basslines, personally. Say what you will about the 303, I still have not found any other synth that comes even close to that level of versatility. Anybody heard the acid line from Poxymusic - Our Break?
