Bassdrive 🇺🇸

Bassdrive stands as a cornerstone of the drum and bass scene, a dedicated internet radio station broadcasting almost exclusively drum and bass. Unlike stations that dabble in various genres, Bassdrive remains a haven for D&B enthusiasts, showcasing the entire spectrum from liquid funk and atmospheric to neurofunk and techstep. Bassdrive distinguishes itself by championing underground talent, providing a platform for emerging producers and lesser-known DJs to reach a global audience. This commitment to the underground sound solidifies its unique appeal within the D&B community. The core of Bassdrive's programming revolves around live DJ sets, featuring DJs from around the world showcasing their mixes live, often highlighting their own productions or the latest tracks in the scene. Listeners experience a diverse range of D&B subgenres, including liquid funk, atmospheric D&B, neurofunk, techstep, jungle, and jump-up. Regular shows hosted by resident DJs with unique styles offer a consistent schedule for discovering new DJs and subgenres. Special events such as anniversary broadcasts, charity streams, and showcases of specific labels or artists further enrich the listener experience. Archived mixes provide on-demand access to past shows. Bassdrive transcends the definition of a radio station, cultivating a vibrant community where listeners and DJs interact through chat rooms, forums, and social media. The station provides crucial support for artists, offering a platform to showcase their music and connect with a global audience. Operating as a non-profit or with minimal commercial influence allows Bassdrive to prioritize the music and the community. The Bassdrive chat room is a central hub, allowing listeners to interact, request tunes, and chat with DJs during sets, creating a welcoming space for drum and bass enthusiasts worldwide.
