Bassline

‘Bassline’ is a widely used term. Referring to the genre, bassline is a type of music related to UK garage that originated from speed garage, and shares characteristics with fellow subgenres dubstep and grime for their emphasis on bass. The style originated in Sheffield around 2002. Also known as “4x4” for short, as it uses a four-to-the-floor beat, similar to house music, showing its difference to its predecessor, 2-step.

    People are even doubting if Bassline is a real Genre? If ur from the UK I guess you didn't leave your house for 3-5 years coz that shit was a complete takeover, no just in the underground scene. Shame it's 100& dead now.... oh well back to the real music.
