I'm 38. Its a bit out of character, but I LOVE to (as the young'ns say) "make it hum."

I have a couple 10" subs with a modest 1800W rms driving them. I'm mostly just an audiophile who likes well-rounded sound reproduction. I usually listen to folk, jazz, and classic rock.

I'm looking to update my playlist. The most recent song I have on there that hums is "I wanna f* you" by Akon/Snoop. I'm going to add "Look at me now" by Chris Brown. I'm looking for good songs, not just bass if you know what I mean.

Start list now

Not recent, and probably not what you're looking for but... I typically listen to folk, bluegrass, and blues, but Red Hot Chili Peppers came on the radio yesterday and I turned the bass up all the way because Flea is awesome.

I'm not sure if anyone's ever complained about Rush and Geddy Lee's playing.

I have a good selection of non-current classic stuff with good bass. I'm thinking more rap/dance/hip-hop/house kinda stuff.

The first three you posted are getting close. The last stuff you posted is wicked hot house stuff. I could dance until I evaporated to that stuff.

...but not what I'm looking for

Tomorrow I'll post more examples of the style I'm looking for.

Anthrax- the '91 version of "I'm the Man" has a pretty awesome bass line..

"Punishment" by Biohazard..

how about some Type O Negative?

of course my tastes are more metal than anything..

Here's one out of left field...

Pretty Lights - Hot Like Sauce.

If you like this and stuff like it, this artist is VERY prolific, and all of his music if available for free download on his website.

Trust me on this one... it's got some ass to it on a good stereo.

Did you ever get into Pendulum?

being a white boy that grew up in the city and was exposed to every kind of music there is growing up, it was strange when my parents moved us to the farmland 25 miles from downtown, then suburban hell sprawled up all around us.

so at the point which i procured a cadillac, Gimp & i put a couple 12's in the trunk and a few of my favorite "scare the soccer mom" tunes were:

Damn it feels good to be a gangsta by the Ghetto Boyz

I'm a Thug by Trick Daddy

It Was a good day by Ice Cube

Shoot, you're a kid compared to me. Don't know if any of it is your cuppa Joe, but some good ones with good bass-

Beck - Sea Change. It's kinda mellow, but really, really good and has some great bass.

Emiliana Torrini - Love in the Time of Science. Also pretty mellow, I guess. Hum, I am old.

X-Press 2 - Muzikizum. Okay, not a great album, but one awesome song. They got David Byrne to do the vocals on a song called "Lazy" and it's 52 flavors of awesome.

I'm sure I have some other good ones. I'll think on it.

That's good stuff. Me like.

To sum up what I'm looking for is good rap/hip hop/dance tunes that make my speakers hum and make people say "wow, that van has some boom to it." Nothing screams poser more than a 38 year old man in a molester van with a 'fro listening to Ke$ha or LMFAO.

Keep em coming, we're getting good stuff.

Just a tiny bit too pop-y and young for my taste.

Intergalactic rocks. I have to say when I started that Lets Go video and saw gold teeth and heard Ozzy samples I was very afraid... but it jams.
