DRUM N BASS / DUBSTEP 2010s. Late 2000s - 2010s.
The DubStep and Drum n Bass (DnB) styles changed a lot after about 2007; the tempos and drops/jungalist rhythms respectively are kept, but the production style is amped up with "sawtooth" bass. It's an open air friendly sound aimed at mosher rave nights popular in USA & Europe.
BREAKBEAT & JUNGALIST. 1980s - 90s.
Dance style using 'breaks' samples from funk, soul, disco etc but putting it over bass and chopping and changing and looping every which way to make a driving rave track. It's that classic sound of The Prodigy. Jungalist just means virtually pure percussion patterns & goes directly into early Drum n Bass (no real clear line)
ELECTRO/ELECTRO-FUNK. 1980s.
Breaks in general borrows from funk
- so goes all the way to the likes of Little Richard
back in the 50s. In electro-funk, start 2 here the kinds of buzzy techno FX which would become rave. Distorted vocals sound quite emotionless similar to the delivery in 'New Wave' acts of the time.
