Bass Impact

About This Movie

Bass Impact dives deep into the roots of British sound culture, tracing its evolution from the chaotic pirate radio days of the 90s to the explosive rise of dubstep, all set against the gritty backdrop of Croydon. It’s fascinating how the film weaves together these seemingly disparate threads, showing how the underground raves and the burgeoning internet changed the landscape of music. The pacing has this almost hypnotic quality, mirroring the beats it discusses. I appreciate the way it captures the raw energy of those early scenes with practical effects that feel authentic, not overly polished. The narrative takes unexpected turns, particularly when it explores the digital age’s influence on music. It’s like a love letter to a scene that feels very alive and very personal.
