Staff picks
Bassline came out of UK clubs in the mid-2000s, especially around Sheffield and the north of England. It takes the four-to-the-floor shuffle of UK garage and puts a wobbling, bouncing bassline at the very front.
Where bassline tracks work
- club and party promos;
- street dance and urban content;
- gaming and sports highlights;
- UK-themed nightlife videos.
Bass first
The bass is loud, melodic and full of movement, often more catchy than the vocal. Tempos usually sit around 135 to 140 BPM, a little faster than house. Organ stabs, chopped vocals and skippy hats complete the sound. For club promos and party videos, the bass line gives the edit a strong hook. For street dance content, the fast, bouncy groove matches quick footwork.
Make a bassline track
