Good to know
The rhythm section on its own is how bass players and drummers learn a groove: every ghost note, and every kick the bass locks to, is easy to hear. Turning the bass up a little helps on small speakers.
It works the other way too: mute the drums and the bass and you have the harmony and the melody alone, which helps when you work out the chords.
