Speed Garage samples feature shuffled drum patterns with pitched-down basslines, chopped vocal hooks, and deep sub-heavy synth riffs. The style emerged in the UK in the mid-1990s as a subgenre of UK garage, pushing tempos faster and drawing the bass influence of jungle and dub into the shuffled rhythmic framework of house. It became one of the defining underground sounds of late-'90s British club culture and laid direct groundwork for 2-step, grime, and bassline house.
