Today, we take a look at one of many examples of these revolutionary bass sounds: the Reese bass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The origin of the Reese bass<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Reese bass got its name from influential DJ \/ producer Kevin Saunderson\u2019s early side-project moniker, Reese. In 1988, Saunderson dropped a dark and groovy single titled \u201cJust Want Another Chance,\u201d which featured a massive, warbly, chorused bass synth (heard below at 0:16).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/2fLoViPlr6qskNBS19sO7j?si=zmP25spaToCOxd14QQvR_A\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allow=\"encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Does that sound familiar?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, Saunderson, an early Detroit techno producer, didn\u2019t receive recognition for the sound right away. It took time for the sound to disseminate to those who were most craving it, and even more time for the larger music community to track down where it originated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The rise of the Reese bass<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The breakout moment for the Reese bass sound was when Ray Keith sampled Reese&#8217;s record in the early \u201990s for the jungle classic, \u201cTerrorist,\u201d under his moniker Renegade. Early rave producers who were spearheading the drum &amp; bass movement in the UK couldn\u2019t get enough of this massive, pulsing, living bass sound, and it ended up defining a good deal of what we know that genre to sound like, even to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/05LBKoyVoXTQRtSO0t5CZs?si=yM8Sh8RHQbOqCaOhLygGDg\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allow=\"encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Side note: Ray Keith is a genius of drum &amp; bass and jungle, and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"hearing him talk about his process (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zz9BOYuYtrY\" target=\"_blank\">hearing him talk about his creative process<\/a> is an absolute joy that we highly recommend<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although drum &amp; bass is where the Reese bass is most frequently heard, it also came to be a defining staple of other UK rave and dance music subgenres, like UK garage. Check out this classic example from the enigmatic producer legend, Burial (heard at 0:55).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/1aaIYTqoRDzRUilU2Q6vTe?si=Ht4um5ioTYyqztijHMXDCw\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allow=\"encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The essence of this sound is its constant movement \u2013 it\u2019s a quality we just wouldn\u2019t expect from something like a bass guitar (or even many other synthesized alternatives). Perhaps the closest possible &#8216;analog&#8217; emulation of this sound would be a chorus of upright basses, continuously adjusting their tuning ever so slightly from one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dubstep, neuro, and beyond<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Subsequent genres such as dubstep and neuro owe everything to early jungle producers (like the almighty Reese), and heavily utilize intense Reese basses and some more aggressive variants that came about with time. As you\u2019d imagine, these genres are constantly pushing the synth &#8216;envelope,&#8217; and it becomes difficult to categorize the sounds after a certain point. For an example of one of these more hard-hitting evolutions, take a listen to Mefjus and Break\u2019s \u201cOut of Time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/3qlnJxqARqYZdbjdqTC5KL?si=qf-UzxieRJqI9bIIXE1w0g\" width=\"100%\" height=\"80\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allow=\"encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How the sound lives on today<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"In an interview with Attack Magazine, (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.attackmagazine.com\/features\/interview\/kevin-saunderson-2\/4\/\" target=\"_blank\">In an interview with Attack Magazine,<\/a> Saunderson stated that he originally used a Casio CZ-5000 (a phase distortion synth) when he first created the sound. He simply experimented with the patch and the oscillators until he arrived on something that he thought was interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nowadays, FM and wavetable synthesizers like <a href=\"https:\/\/splice.com\/plugins\/39137242-serum-2-au-by-xfer-records\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Serum<\/a> have become the go-to tools for making Reese basses.
