[edit] Bad

No way, it was created not in 2002, but at least in 2001 with the release of DJ Narrows' 'Saved Soul' on his Resurrection Label. -- 86.57.254.215 (talk) 17:10, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

And it arose from 4x4 grime recordings like 'Saved Soul' (from above), Dynamite MC vs TNT 'Rush the DJ' etc.. -- 195.50.1.122 (talk) 08:05, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I am sorry, every time I visit this page I disagree with a good chunk of it. Speed Garage is a genre that originated in sheffield, 2001-2002. Bassline House is a new sound, mainly engineered by people from birmingham until recently. T2, and other songs mentioned are 4x4, which is again a completely different genre. This needs sorting out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.194.29.89 (talk) 23:36, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] marketingspeak

yuck!

"Bassline music is described as a "new pop mutation". It makes a refreshing debut on the music scene, evoking the abstract, sugar-coated elements that were lacking in the previous UK pop scene. It is characterized as an "intricate sculpting of the b-lines" with its "interweaving of multiple basslines", allowing it to move further than rave music. Bassline takes components from R&B, but evokes a new sentiment. For example, the song "Freak Me"[12] by TRC Ft Screama and Zoe, "transforms the tiresome cliché of love as an 'emotional rollercoaster' into a thrilling amusement park ride." [13]"

this is horribly unencyclopaedic. unless i have any objections i'm removing it soon. --Kaini (talk) 23:41, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

I totally agree. Also, all you anons moaning about how this page is wrong, find more references, okay? We have about 10 references that say bassline house is from Sheffield, and that Heartbroken is bassline. Your amateur musicological opinions about what makes bassline, speed garage and 4x4 garage so immensely different are useless here, sorry. 212.49.210.38 (talk) 19:25, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Removed text

I went through the article and attempted to remove all the unverifiable content, or at least request references where needed. The following sounds like it could be useful, if a decent reference is found. At the moment it sounds a lot like original research so it stays out.

Bassline house as a name for the genre has caused confusion and misunderstanding over what exactly a 'bassline house' track and what is a 'bassline (4x4)' track. 4x4 bassline is  more similar in tone to UK garage,  grime and dubstep, and is more popular in the north of the UK (Leeds, Sheffield etc). Bassline house is a name that originated in Birmingham, and the overall sound of this music is different. Some describe this as being a brighter, less moody sound. The overall sound of bassline house borrows a lot more heavily from the classic speed garage era.

This isn't Bassline House it's all about Niche Nightclub in Sheffield and 4x4x Bassline and NOT BASSLINE HOUSE!! Even in the Artist Section they're all 4x4 Bassline DJ's Producers and vocalists. I have several times removed them from the Artists section and added the real Bassline House DJ'S Producers and Vocalists and Record Labels for some IDIOT to remove it all!! So why have this website as a editor when they have made a basically misunderstanding article about Bassline House so I change it o the correct information and they delete it all whats the point???? Please tell me and I WILL!! be waiting for a reply!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.47.180.251 (talk) 18:42, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
