Deep DEEP bass in real music. - Page 2

I always heard that AC/DCs Highway to Hell has a lot of sub-30 cycle slam. One of the better rock songs for it apparently. Of course, one has to like AC/DC first. Might be worth checking into.

Wow, this is a great list. I'm trying to consolidate it for the future. Thanks guys.

If you are a Nine Inch Nails fan, chck out The Fragile and the remix disc of the Fragile, Things Falling Apart. The Fragile has many songs on it with great bass. My favorite music demo though is the remix of "Where is Everybody?" off of the remix disc. That has some smokin bass. I have to wave a towel over my SVS after I play that song.

I agree with the Madonna sugesstion. My wife was listening to the Ray of Light cd recently on my system and I couldn't believe how much bass it put out, at least as much as Crystal Method.

If you can handle metal mixed with techno, then I've got a cd for you. Fear Factory did a disc called Remanufacture that mixes their usual unique metal sound with techno. The result is the loudest bass I have ever heard by far.

^I second Fear Factory's Remanufacture just for the sheer AWESOMENESS of the album. Excellent car disc

The entire "Earthling" album is great IMHO, although it doesn't seem to be popular amongst long time Bowie devotees.

Guess I'm the exception then

, an I've listened to Bowie since 1974 or so... You have to admire an artist who releases this kind of album when he turns 50 instead of basking in the fading light of his former glory...if you can get your hands on the single version with a number of strange remixes you are in for some serious bass.

Also Front 242 has some very low synth bass, check out Front By Front or Tyranny For You.

Basically any drum'n'bass album is bound to have some very low bass.

Another vote for The Fragile. That album goes lower and louder than any other non-hiphop/rap album in my collection. Tracks 8 and 10 off the first disc alone will get you kicked out of most apartment complexes.

The other NIN albums aren't bad either. If you don't mind rap, I'm partial to Paul's Boutique by the Beastie Boys, myself. I'd love to hear Shake your rump through an SVS!

Btw, maybe it's just my setup, but The Brazilian by Genesis doesn't have much low-end impact to me. Not to mention 'Front By Front' by Front 242, I don't really hear much low bass in that album either. Although the album 'Off' is no slouch.

Mr. Oizo - Flat Beat (Awesome music video to go with it)

Hmm, good idea. I think I will give it a listen.

Damn, this is a great candidiate thread for archival, or at least forward to the boys at SVS who maintain a small list of music and movie demo material at there website.

Darren Davis · 01-12-2002, 06:23 PM

^I was thinking the exact same thing. Can Ron and Tom handle it?
