Take a listen to Hip Hop, Trap, Pop, EDM, or just about any other genre these days and you’ll hear the distinct tones of the “808 Bass” – a term used to describe tuned and pitched sub-bass lines whose origins come from a classic drum machine, not a bass synth.

What’s 808 mean in hip hop?

Is an 808 a bass or a kick?

The difference between an 808 and a kick drum is that an 808 refers to just the low-end bass sounds that emanate from the kick, but not the attack of the kick drum. In other words, an 808 is the bass – the sound and frequency – whereas the kick refers to the actual kick drum or VST.
