Put the rhythm section first
A useful funk music maker prompt names the pocket before the melody: kick and snare placement, ghost notes, slap bass, syncopation, percussion, and how much space the band leaves between hits. That is what keeps the draft funky rather than only retro.
- slap bass lines, fingerstyle bass, pocket drums, ghost notes, congas, claps, and tambourine
- wah guitar chops, clavinet stabs, Rhodes chords, brass hits, talkbox-style hooks, and group chants
- P-funk, 70s funk, disco-funk, modern funk-pop, funk rock, and instrumental groove prompts
