distorted bass
Overdriven low frequencies
Distorted bass is a low-frequency sound deliberately processed to add grit, fuzz, or harmonic crunch.
In electronic and rock music, clean bass can sound too polished, so producers overdrive it through amplifiers, pedals, or software to give it edge and presence: The track's distorted bass rattled the speakers.
The technique anchors genres from dubstep to grunge.
