The Groovy Evolution of Bass House

Bass house! Just the name alone makes you want to dance. This electrifying genre has taken over dance floors worldwide, blending elements of house music with heavy basslines, catchy hooks, and a sense of fun that’s hard to resist. Let’s take a funky journey through the history of bass house, its roots, key artists, and some amusing anecdotes that make this genre as lively as a Saturday night rave!

A Brief History

To understand bass house, we need to rewind a bit. The seeds of this genre were sown in the early 2010s when producers began experimenting with deep house and UK garage sounds — think groovy beats married to bouncy rhythms and those delightful wobbly basslines.

Early Influences

The influence of UK garage is undeniable here. In the late ’90s and early 2000s, UK garage was all about cutting-edge beats infused with R&B vibes. As electronic music started blossoming globally, artists from various backgrounds contributed their flavors into what would eventually morph into bass house.

Around 2014-2015 is when things really kicked off for our beloved bass house. Artists like Tchami, Mercer, and AC Slater started crafting tracks that made everyone stop in their tracks… or at least boogie down! These fellas took inspiration from other genres too; throw in some funk elements along with EDM pizazz—BOOM! You’ve got yourself a party starter.

Signature Sounds

What sets base house apart? It’s all about that hefty low-end thump combined with punchy snares – add soul-laden samples or cheeky vocal chops on top for good measure. When you hear that signature wobble drop at the club? You know it’s time to get your groove on!

While traditional house may be cool (we love ya too), there’s something special about how bass houses pump up energy levels like an espresso shot on steroids—especially when those drops hit just right!

Key Players

Let’s give props to some essential players who helped shape the scene:

  • Tchami: Often called the godfather of future house (and rightly so), Tchami’s tracks are often filled with gospel-infused melodies hypercharged by neck-snapping beats.

  • AC Slater: This guy knows how to keep it funky! He blends elements from various genres creating infectious grooves guaranteed to get feet moving!

  • Wax Motif: Known for his dirty beats wrapped in cheeky samples (how many times can we sample “insomnia”?), Wax Motif delivers banger after banger while doing a little moonwalk behind his DJ booth.

Each artist adds their unique pinch of seasoning while keeping true enough not only impressing hard-core fans but also roping newbies onto this merry-go-round.

Funny Facts About Bass House Musicians

Now let’s sprinkle in some laughs because what’s life without humor?

  1. AC Slater’s Love for Pizza: Did you know AC Slater once celebrated finishing an EP by ordering eleven pizzas? Rumor has it he didn’t share because… well… he really loves pizza!

  2. Tchami’s Spiritual Side: Tchami describes his sound as “future gospel.” One might wonder if he’s out there preaching between sets because every drop feels like divine intervention!

  3. The Mercer Dance: Mercer has a very peculiar pre-show ritual involving goofy dances backstage—often featuring pirouettes & jazz hands—that gets everyone hyped before hitting them hard with massive beat drops.

  4. Mau P’s Misconception: Mau P thought he named one track “Drugs” without knowing people would start trying substances exactly five minutes into playing it live! Guess what; they call him “Party Starter” now…

  5. DJ Masks & Identities: Many DJs wear masks or obscure identities partially due to mystery-but also partly ’cause they don’t wanna do laundry every weekend after wild nights partying post-gigs—not naming anyone specific here (cough Marshmello!).
