Bubblegum Bass Thread
 

Edit: I've decided we may as well make this the official "Bubblegum Bass" thread, since it's not merely excluded to the PC Music label.

So PC Music are a relatively new label. The majority of their artists make music described as "bubblegum bass", which is essentially polished pop songs, that are kind of sped up and squeaky. An over-simplification I suppose, but some of the tracks just don't follow convention, so it's hard to describe.

A few linkys to help you delve:

Great. More electric pop obsessed with "bass".

(1990's version) Great, more post grunge light-rock.

(1980's version) Great, more hair metal and over dramatic synth-pop.

(1970's version) Great, more disco and funk rock.

(1960's version) Great, more cover bands in matching outfits.

(1950's version) Great, more white guys playing R & B/Boogie Woogie.

(1940's version) Great, more swing, swing, and swing.

(1700's version) Great, more classical compositions.

(500's version) Great, more bards singing about maidens.

(Pre-Historic version) Great, Ug is banging his rocks again.

Thanks for that great post.
