This is a really cool, haunting song by Porcupine Tree from Lightbulb Sun(2000).
It uses a fretless bass, but don't worry if you don't have one. It just won't sound as bwah-y!
Regarding the second line harmonics: to do this, hit normal 7th and then 5th fret harmonic, then from 5
slide to the 3rd fret. The harmonic itself should slide! This still works on fretted basses, it's just
much quieter. Lastly I added timestamps to the latter section because it's easy to get lost!
(1.01) Bass interlude.
