The Groovy History of Bass House
Ah, Bass House! That sweet blend of house rhythms and bass-heavy vibes that just gets your body moving. Let’s dive into the origins, evolution, and some funky facts about this genre that has us all bouncing.
What is Bass House?
Before we drop into history, let’s clarify what we’re talking about. Bass House is essentially where house music meets a heavier bassline. Think of it as a fun party in the club where deep synths and groovy beats keep the dance floor alive! It often incorporates elements from genres like dubstep, garage, and even a bit of trap – you know, all those styles that make you feel like you’re riding a sonic wave.
A Brief History
The Foundations: Early 2000s
The seeds for Bass House were planted in the early 2000s when producers started experimenting with deeper sounds within house tracks. Some might say it comes straight from the UK garage scene mixed with American house influences. It’s like taking two classic recipes and stirring them together – super tasty!
Artists like Claude VonStroke began to sprinkle in bassy beats that made everyone want to bounce. He’s known for fusing quirky samples with catchy hooks—definitely one of the pioneers paving this groovy road!
Rise to Fame: Mid-2010s
