Expansion, Correction"
This is a fairly new phenomenon and I see this page expanding quickly, with so many artists producing a wide variety of genres with great overlap. However what I've observed is that what people call Bass refers to any flavour of house techno and breaks so long as the music is "bass driven".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.12.238.87 (talk) 13:08, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: its not wise to define a genre/subgenre by something so universal and cross-genre like "bass". you are not helping identify anything other than the track has bass notes and that it might be "bumpin'", which means it could be just about any genre or artist out there
this phenomenon is similar to "dance music" and "future" whatever

:I do not agree. There aren't that many genres in which bass is the focus. Also that's not necessarily the scope of "bass music". Also "dance music" (I guess you're referring to EDM?) is a relatively useful/making sense imo. Either way it doesn't really matter what you or others think about its usefulness because if it's a used term with WP:RS an article is warranted. --Fixuture (talk) 19:17, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I have to agree with the initial post (in its main point at least): "Bass music" is a way too general term. I suppose this article was written by British authors, and it might make sense in Great Britain, where the term has (taken on) this certain meaning. But neither in the U.S. nor in continental Europe are people thinking of this particular music when reading the words "bass music". Instead, they rather think of Maggotron, Dynamix II and Miami bass. Just to give you an idea of how the term is used somewhere else, see this Discogs entry on a Maggotron alias, or this Allmusic biography on Dynamix II using the term in the very first sentence. So, I'd strongly suggest to rename this article into the more precise (and, according to the article, synonymous) term UK bass. Can we agree to that?

thread_title:  nonsense genre naming 

message: As both Future bass and Bass music these genres are considered to have the same view and emphasis on similar subjects, both of these genres musical elements can be both related and distinct between one another, overall they still go under the same category; Bass music. In exchange rather than having both of these articles separate, the merge could too lead to a better performance with new controbutions and changes being taken place. 120.147.37.23 (talk) 06:41, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Bass music is too general for one to claim it originated from a certain country. Any genre with bass can be considered bass music. Future bass, however, is different. Not all bass music (genres) can be considered it. Future bass is more to EDM and dance music, especially trap music. - TheMagnificentist 10:19, 30 April 2017 (UTC)

text: 120.147.37.23, you didn't request consensus the proper way, which is why no one is commenting anything here. That template doesn't look good on the article and it has been there for months. I'd recommend doing something about it like maybe invite more people to discuss this and have an admin decide whether the merger is appropriate or not. - TheMagnificentist 17:12, 9 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: This is inane, "UK bass" isn't explicitly associated with dubstep, that it's sometimes used synonymously with "post-dubstep" developments doesn't make it so.gentlecollapse6 (talk) 02:50, 29 July 2017 (UTC)

text: The word future in these genre names is likely an allusion to futurism. I think Apoptygma Berzerk started it all. – filelakeshoe (t / c)  03:25, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge of Bass music and Future bass 

message: I removed one ref about bass music also being called post-dubstep because the source cited said the opposite, i.e. that "bass music and post-dubstep had splintered". I am also not sure whether that Guardian source with one paragraph under a pic of Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990 suffices to cite that bass music is also known as post-dubstep (and future garage). Are they not talking about the Night Slugs sound in particular rather than a genre? – filelakeshoe (t / c)  01:40, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
