In music, a ground bass is a bass part that repeats continually, while the melody and harmony over it change.
A well known example is the ground bass employed in Pachelbel's Canon.
In popular music, the bass guitar riff can be regarded as a modern version of the ground bass. An example is Pink Floyd's "Money" (The Dark Side of The Moon - 1973).
