For many electronic music enthusiasts, space bass is a genre that evolves with your musical palate. Most fans initially gravitate towards big room house or dubstep, but as their tastes progress, an increasing number find themselves drawn to the enchanting allure of space bass. While this genre may not be immediately accessible to the wider population, its incredible sonic landscapes require skilled artists to manipulate sounds, crafting tunes that are not only catchy but also tell a compelling story, whisking you away to the cosmos. In this exploration, let’s focus on two stalwarts in the space bass scene: Liquid Stranger and Tipper, both longstanding dominators of the industry. Here, I’ll highlight some of my favorite tracks from each, offering you a glimpse of who might be the ultimate pilot to take you on a celestial journey.
“Mason” by Tipper
Kicking off with Tipper, a true master of space bass and sound design, “Mason” stands out as one of my personal favorites, showcasing his prowess. The initial drop is a mesmerizing cascade of elongated hollow notes that seamlessly flow into each other, creating an experience reminiscent of floating in the ocean with waves guiding you in every direction. Prepare for a journey to the moon with this ethereal track.
“Holla” by Liquid Stranger, Wreckno
Liquid Stranger, the maestro behind the premier Wakaan Label, displays his sound production mastery in this collaboration with Wreckno. The first drop of “Holla” features high-pitched notes as the melody, providing a brain-tickling experience. Transitioning into the second half, a dubstep-esque drop adds a powerful dimension, showcasing Liquid Stranger’s versatile range and fearless approach to taking you to Mars. Don’t miss out on the sonic adventure this song promises.
“Groundscore” by Tipper
With “Groundscore,” Tipper takes you on a mesmerizing journey. This track, filled with elongated hollow sounds during the drop, is notably busier than the previous Tipper piece. Cascading notes move up and down, creating a sensory blend that feels like your brain is being expertly mixed in a blender. Enhanced with space bass accents, this track guarantees to send you soaring through the atmosphere.
“Jungle Juice” by Liquid Stranger, Ganja White Night
A legendary collaboration, “Jungle Juice” seamlessly fuses the distinctive styles of Liquid Stranger and Ganja White Night. The track boasts a solid first verse and buildup, leading to elongated bass notes in the drop that pierce the sky with force. Despite its weightiness, the song maintains a non-aggressive quality—a characteristic not often found in space bass tracks. Picture this as a spaceship forcefully taking off for a cosmic flight; it’s a definite playlist essential.
“Spunion” by Tipper
One of Tipper’s more “fun” compositions, “Spunion” boasts a faster tempo. True to Tipper’s signature style, space bass elements permeate the track, with glitched-out scratching sounds dominating the drop as if he were scratching live. The melody features sounds of unparalleled precision and design, creating an experience that feels like dancing in a blender. This track is undeniably entertaining and a joy to dance to.
“Ceremony” by Liquid Stranger, Clozee
“Ceremony” serves as a testament to Liquid Stranger and Clozee’s ability to infuse dark elements into their music. With the elongated wave feel characteristic of Clozee’s sound, the drop is filled with deep, gnarly sounds that transport you to the realm of an alien on another planet. The track’s heaviness and beauty seamlessly capture the essence of space, promising an immersive listening experience. Enjoy the cosmic ride!
