One of the hardest questions to answer for any basshead is, What are the BEST bass drops of all time? I especially had a hard time trying to figure out the best way to answer this myself. Would you answer it by popularity? Or by your personal taste? So, I did my homework and asked as many people as I could what their opinions were. This is the list I have put together. In no particular order, here are some of the best bass drops of all time! I pointed out my personal favorites with an asterisk*

Everyday bass music is changing. Yet we still should appreciate the old songs as much as the new ones because without all these songs we wouldn’t have the music we do now. Constant change is a good thing and your taste in music might have shifted like mine did a little with every rave I go to. I say to always remember the songs that got you into EDM. Happy raving and appreciate all music.
Check out this super awesome playlist featuring the tracks listed above!
[Disclaimer Note: There is more than one genre of bass and some of your favorites might not be on here. That doesn’t mean they aren’t the best of all time to you! There are a few remixes and to some bassheads those are better than the original but everyone is allowed to have their own opinion. If I missed your favorite track, drop it in the comments below! Also, some would be considered more popular than better bass drops.]
