Bassline died because too many people (mostly teenagers) was getting fresh tunes that wernt even released and was playing them out on nights, on there phones on buses trains and street corners lol. This made it hard to generate money to the producers, most of the top named bassline producers have started making Funky House tunes now - Dj Paleface, Mr Figz, Wittyboy for example.

Also too many youths jumping on the scene these days. Example, the kid who posted the 'Cokey' thread the other day if some of you remember, he must of been 13 or so lol.

The internets a good thing, but also bad for things like this to happen which is sad indeed

People like this are seriously damaging the scene (in my point of view anyways, dont know about your opinions on this). But share ya thoughts anyways!! Cheers.
