The New UK Sound





Yet another music genre has emerged from the UK. After Dubstep, D&B, Grime, 2-Step and Garage, here's the newest sound to take over Britain: Bassline or Niche. It is hugely popular over there already. The song Heartbroken made it to #2 on the charts. But it is still fairly unknown to the rest of the world. It was first heard in Sheffield which is a town in the north part of England, just north of Nothingham. It sounds like fast garage with chopped up R&B vocals. 140 BPM seems to be the standard speed. Anyways, it is pretty refreshing to hear something else than the ubiquitous electro that's all over the blogs (including this one). So here are 2 tracks from Bassline's #1 ambassador T2.

for å opplyse visse noobs på bloggen her, så er the new sound of UK, with all due respect, ikke så brand new likevel. Litt gammel Artful Dodger bekrefter dette. Men dette blir priking, fett er det uansett! peace
yooooooooooo
