try thinking in terms of layering like a cake. take a nice reese, or your favorite sub bass that's long enough and cut off the really low end and beef up the mid, but not too much or it will get muddy, then find a couple bass samples that you like and think will complement that, and you can filter the low end off, layer onto that like icing on the cake, pitch them up or down, put through some overdrive, add a synced lfo to one layer or the other, or both. you could even chain one or two top layers of your bass cake together so they modulate in different time signatures but keep in sync. then you always have the automation to phuck around with on the track. record some in with a wheel, or draw some shit in. experiment, experiment! no ones going to bake a cake for you now will they.(except maybe yer mom =) there's enough tools in a program like even reason 2 to do some really wild shit. try the maelstrom, wickid potential there for resampling/layering. hope this helps a bit.
