"Transmission" by Joy Division--bassline

from Permanent: 1995 & a couple of other JD albums
This is 1 of my favories from Permanent. Pretty simple & straight forward, just listen for different note lengths. This sounds good loud (especially in a club) & oh ya, use a pick

figure 1--drums/guitar in, keep going with this, with some slight rhythm changes

continue with figure 1, still listening for rhythm changes
vocals stop at some point & play figure 2 again
continue with figure 1 til end
figure 2 is played a couple of other times, but that's about it cuz it's a pretty short song
