I dont know how to express the kind of bass that plays in the ambient/downbeat music that really makes me smile... maybe I should post links to a few tracks !!!
note :example of chill/ambient - Vibrasphere - Selected Downbeats Vol.1 Entheogenic - Golden Cap
The trance mostly ranges from 144 - 146 BPM (+/- a little) |
Souljah, I've had this general observation. Anyone who likes electronic music with a 120+ bpm (includes me, I moonlight as a DJ, and I can pretty much hump House music all night long), so that includes upbeat Lounge, all kinds of House/ Trance, Techno, DnB, Garage, Hardcore (not XXX, Sam, you wicked mind

) enjoys it best with a really attacking midbass and HF. The subs have to be kept to the bare minmum. Not overpowering the rest of the band, and yet strongly there when that bassline comes along.
In fact (if you agree), this sounds damn good on pro audio stuff, like in Discos and all ya know? Bloody electrifyingly trippy! And the subs in clubs don't even mostly play under 40Hz! But you have massive mid-bass drivers pulverising everything between 100 to 500 Hz, and horn-loaded compression drivers to take care of the rest. I don't regard this as SQ, and I had tried to bring this up once, but everyone told me that club sound is crap (Boo hoo! I love JBL, Turbo-Sound and Meyer pro setups).
So what I'm trying to say (which I think I've partly forgotten thanks to some Grey Goose), is that you should focus on some really spanking component speakers, and make sure that you provide them the right environment. The subs are well, simply mandatory.
