2Step - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 2Step (also known as 2 step, two step or 2 step garage) is a typically British style of modern dance music, and one of the two major sub-genres of UK Garage (although UK Garage is sometimes imprecisely used as a synonym for 2Step), together with its brother 4x4 Garage. The most radical change from Speed Garage to 2Step was the removal of the 2nd and 4th bass kick from each bar (see "Characteristics" for more details). In the UK, where jungle and techno were strong at the time, Garage was played in the second room at Jungle parties (as counterpart to chill-out rooms at techno parties). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/UK_garage   (1551 words)

Slanguistics: Paradise garage (Seattle Weekly) 2-step garage has quickly become the soundtrack to that new lifestyle, as evidenced by the sheer volume of genre compilations stacked on store shelves in England (search for "garage" on amazon.co.uk for a selection). 2-step garage marries the rolling funk of jungle to the luxurious rhythms of house music, slapping on a healthy dose of RandB vocals to complete the pie. Instead of jungle's off-beat syncopation, garage's operative motif is the stutter-step, a trip of drums that encourages unconscious body movement. www.seattleweekly.com /music/0039/slanguistics-caramanica.php   (826 words)

Brüt Force Entertainment - "No Compromise." Since the boom of Underground Garage (aka UK Garage, 2-Step) in the US, circa 1999, it has made headlines in numerous urban and DJ culture publications (URB, BPM, and Mixer, to name a few). Through the history of Underground Garage, through urban and electronic dance music influences, it has covered all bases within its sub-genres — from soulful 2-Step, to dark Sublow/Grime, to bouncy Speed Garage and 4x4 Garage, to mechanical Breakstep/Breakbeat Garage, to intricate Dubstep.

4x4 Garage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The terms "4x4", "Speed Garage" and "Bassline House" have become interchangable in todays 4/4 garage scene, although speed garage is often used to falsely identify 2 step or UK garage. Since the "death" of garage in the mainstream and the increased popularity of grime, 4x4 has once again become the favoured drum pattern for producers of UK garage. 4x4 Garage is a variety of UK garage with a 4/4 time signature and drums consisting of a bass drum on each beat in the bar, similar in style to house music. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Speed_garage   (242 words)

What Does Speed Garage sound like? Prior to 2-step, the only speed garage that I think was really really serious about the jungle connection was the Armand Van Helden stuff with its techstep basslines. The jungle element in speed garage is allusive (and elusive) - the turbocharged basslines, the rewinds, the ragga elements, the gunshots (all of which can just be summed up as ragga/dancehall elements), so thinking of it as a class of jungle is like thinking of Timbaland r&b/hip hop as a class of techno. well, the "garage" comes from NJ Garage (house with the shuffly snares) and the "speed" comes from the fact that they used to play garage imports in drum & bass club chillout rooms pitched up to +4 or + 8 or whatever in order to keep up with the general tempo. ilx.wh3rd.net /thread.php?msgid=3125488   (885 words)

2-Step Garage In a very real sense, UK garage is organised around the pressure of feminine desire; a key factor in the scene's emergence was when women defected en masse from the junglist dancefloor, fed up with the melody-and-vocal-devoid bombast of techstep. In 2-step particularly, songs become tracky and tracks become songful; melody is percussive and percussion is melodic; the vocals constantly make you wonder if this is a human being or a machine, soul or technics. Either way, cocaine is the perfect signifier for garage's ambivalent politics--not only because of its associations with prestige, but because it's a drug that stimulates the appetite for all pleasures, and because the dynamics of its use (insatiability, basically) offer a kind of parody of consumerism. members.aol.com /blissout/2step.htm   (8181 words)

Caesars - Free Music Downloads - MP3 Downloads - Download.com Music Sweden’s Caesars take a confident step out of the garage on their new album, Paper Tigers a lively, layered rock album informed as much by Lennon/McCartney as the 13th Floor Elevators and Stooges.

It's a shame to relegate a song this fantastically upbeat and infectious to a 30-second ad spot, so turn off the TV and indulge in the whole thing. music.download.com /caesars/3600-8588_32-100715883.html   (1467 words)
