The Home of Wave on Reddit.

Wave is a genre which emerged initially out of the UK, mainly taking influence from trap, dubstep, grime, ambient, witch house and other bass genres. The genre itself has a range of sounds, but remains unique and identifiable due to its keen emphasis on emotion, melody and an ethereal feel.

    Wave + Rave?

    Hey everyone I’ve got a couple questions about wave music and raving.

    How much interest do you guys have in going to shows that play this type of music? I’m sure some of you probably prefer listening to this genre more casually, but I also saw that symmetry fest lineup from last year and it looked AWESOME for those who would want to go to a show.

    To those of you who have been to a show where they play wave music, what was it like? I’ve always thought that if I were to see a wave show that it would be sooo much fun. I really would like to see Skeler, Barnacle Boi, brothel., deadcrow, etc…. But I haven’t seen any wave artists playing close to me so I haven’t gone to see any of them yet

    Lastly, do any of you guys know some wave songs that are much more bass heavy? I do like how hardwave is usually a nice mix of chill+bass, but I’m curious if you guys have any song ID’s of one’s with much heavier bass and drums (maybe in the style of rl grime and sable valley?)

    My main reason for asking these questions is cause I plan on holding an underground show later this year hopefully. I’ve been gathering all the equipment I need, trying to get better at making wave, and I’m hoping in the next month or so I can drop a SoundCloud for you all.

    Let me know what you guys think
