[Kev]

actually i was gonna recommend "carress me down" by sublime. i also like "badifsh"

the song "mona lisa" by juno reactor from matrix:reloaded has awesome bass

 

[Rudee]

Ruffneck - Everybody be Somebody

None of those songs have any real bass; they have what is considered mid-bass.
Since CD's are a digital medium, we can scan them and find out exactly what frequency is being played and how loud it is recorded relative to the maximum possible value for a CD, "Redbook" forrmat. Doing that we find these CDs:

Battle Music of Beethoven and Liszt Beethoven (Telarc CD-80079) has 5hz only 13.7 db down for the maxium possible recordable lvl for a CD.

Big Notes Flim & The BB's (DMP CD-454) has 5hz only 16.1 db down for the maxium possible recordable lvl for a CD.

1812 Overture Tchaikovsky (Telarc CD-80041) has 7hz only 14.5 db down for the maxium possible recordable lvl for a CD.

Yea, I bet you didn't think I would know some Sublime stuff I listen to all sorts of music man, not just rap. I'm very open-minded if something sounds good, I'll listen...

Nas - Shoot 'em Up

 

[hopeless879]

Alot of classical music will give you incredible bass, assuming you have some quality speakers.

First octave output is 16~32 Hz. There is a pipe organ with 64 foot pipes that produce a strong 8 Hz fundamental which is audible. I have very good recordings of various space shuttles that contain infrasonics to 200 mHz. (That's 0.200 Hz for those not following along)

In a very special room (in which I am not allowed to talk about) one can listen to such infrasonic levels at frightening volumes! 3 Hz at 145 dB reminds me of driving down a road in Arkansas at 115 mph, cutting the engine and swerving right next to telephone poles. The whoosh whoosh of the compression and rarefaction of the air is very prevalent. At higher levels, your vital bodily functions get distorted like those Jensen 6x9's in the back of your El Camino playing Voodoo Child with 25% THD.

Most "bass" below 20 Hz will make 95% of the so called "subwoofers" out there fart like a Jack Russell that ate a pound of beef jerky! Computer speaker subwoofers are the worst!

Oo...never heard that but that combination sounds bumpin

If you get a hold of the song, lemme know what you think. I don't recall ever hearing it on the radio nor at clubs, but I like the song a lot.

 

[anxi80]

some of the one's ive thought have been mentioned (paul revere, shoot em' up)..

dr. dre feat. eminem and xzibit - whats the difference
dead prez - hip hop (hope you have 2 aspirins readily available for this one)
112 - its over now
shyne feat. barrington levy - bad boys
gorillaz - clint eastwood (when the bassline hits in this track, pretty heavy)
outkast - atliens (throw your hands in the air) (kinda bass heavy, the first couple seconds are best though, the surround ambience)

huh? there is no such thing as a "first" octave
You might have a lowest octave, but it only makes sense to say lowest octave OF something. Otherwise it is like saying lowest number

Punjabi MC - Mundian to Bach Ke

:frown:

If you are not looking for 2 note bass scores that go bump-whump bump-whump, I could suggest some other songs from India. The recording quality won't be too good, but if you are interested, give them a listen anyway

I'll post some links shortly...

Bhangra? Is that what it's called..

Yes, 'Mundian to Bach Ke' is Bhangra. But Bhangra serves a different purpose than the songs I have in mind. I am a bass guitarist (though I play only in an ethnic Indian band). To me, good bass guitar scores would be very, very unlike what someone listening to Bhangra might enjoy. You may not enjoy these songs very much, but as someone who plays them live on stage, this is the only kind of bass I can enjoy That's not to say I don't enjoy Bhangra - personally, I just wouldn't go looking for bass there, is all!

I'm not able to upload my songs from here at work....I'll put a few up this evening when I get home.

Meanwhile, here's a few samples

http://raajangahm.com/guitarprasanna/favo_songs.html

Particularly,

6 - Vaan Meethile

16 - Devanin Koil

22 - Vaanengum

Unfortunately, the audio quality in that site is very poor - but that's the best I can do right now

 

[txxxx]

Muse - hyper music
Muse - new born

Those 2 have some crazy bass lines I even find difficult playing.

Juvenile- Back That Azz Up <-----ridiculous bass...I love it...

There most definitely is a first octave. It always starts from the bottom. This publication refers as 40-80Hz as being the first octave. For acoustic music, this is essentially true. Only a pipe organ is capable of low bass. The lowest note on a piano is ~27 Hz but the wire doesn't move enough air for you to hear the fundamental. It would sound funny if it did. That's what synthesisers are for.

The article says first "usable" octave.
This means something and still, has to refer to something, like a particular instrument.
For example, refering to the "first usable octave" OF a piano, means something.
And, the expression, "first octave" means nothing.

"First usable octave" is also a subjective thing.
Usable to you might not be usable to me.
To get around subjective meanings, I listed the exact frequency at the exact recorded level, as saying the lowest frequency on a cd, with no refrence to how loud it is, is meaningless.

Additionally, in the CDs I list, it is quiet possible the frequency is NOT a harmonic at all, but possbly the primary frequency of a cannon.

Lil Kim ft 50 Cent - Magic Stick - has some really deep bass in it
