    Default wheres the fat basslines gone

    have to search pretty hard these days to find techno with propper funky basslines.

    the main reason i keep going back to house.

    TECHNO NEEDS MORE FUNKY BASSLINES.

    so lets have some please.
    maybe i am just stuck in the past or something. and some of you may scoff, but i been listening to a umek mix from 2001 and it made me realise this.

    wheres the funk gone. some really nice funky tough minimal about you get the odd bando type tune but there not much about.

    or if there is please tell me whos doing it.

    i picked this up last week and is one of the funkiest trax i've heard for a long time. No big fat bassline that you're probably referring to but it doesn't need one to be funky :briggin:

    Nooo we don`t need more basslines, that involves music.
    What we need in more sub rumble under the kicks, so that they go boommmmmboommmmmboommmmmmmm
    Bass is no where near important enough to warrant actually doing something with it.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    fat bass lines are like womens arses, getting skinnier and not as apparent.

    Price you pay.
    You want big phat bass then you need plenty of room for them to breath, so slower tunes allow more space for phatter sounds.

    firstly dude.. i dont wanna upset you and im not sure whether you know this.. but cirez d is eric prydz of call on me rmx fame

    still bloody genius when he pulls on the cirez d hat..

    i dont think his stuff is too slow.. i think he hits the right tempo for that style.. some electro house i do find a little slow but his stuff sits just nicely.

    I did know that.

    You can pretty much tell, the production style is very similar.

    You can see why he uses the alias!

    Quite a few people do that sort of thing, of course...
