what do you mean by bass drop ever
Answers
Bass drops originate all the way back in Jamaican dance music and its cross-pollination with rave music in the UK in the late 80’s and early 90’s.
In the late 60’s, dancehall and dub reggae began to emerge and massive soundsystems prevailed (colloquially known as bass bins). Soundsystems produce earth-shaking bass tones at high volumes. It must be quite an experience to be in a street and see two competing deejays try to outplay each other’s music.
In the 70’s, Jamaican dancehall mutated in New York by giving rise to hip hop. It shed its reggae-tinged sound and referenced funk & disco instead. Hip hop’s signature broken beats became a genre in their own right—breakbeat. This music travelled to England starting in the early 80’s alongside other American electronic music and formed a whirlwind of sounds.
Around the late 80’s, Jamaican diaspora brought their sonic innovations to England. Reggae, dancehall and dub reggae were absorbed into the larger rock and rave scenes going on at the time. A prime example of this clash of sounds was the birth of jungle, which was a bassy, reggae-like form of breakbeat music that was sped up to have a similar tempo to reggae and dancehall but played twice as fast. The effect was slow, reggae-like basslines accompanied by very fast drums
