Question
Hey !  
I'm glad I found someone for this catagory and I hope you can do your best to help me out. I am looking for more songs with the sound off of My Elastic Eye by the Chemical Brothers. That crazy bassy sound.   Well I don't know if there are more of those sounds by the Chemical Brothers, but if not, maybe you know other songs with that sound...  well thanks a lot.    Have a great day. × Heather ×  

Answer
hey heather

i know what you mean, its a cool sound.  it's basically a bassline generator stretched out a little, no specific instrument.  they dont use the exact same pitch that they used in elastic eye, but other songs that have really drawn out bass distortion are:  "elektrobank", "morning lemon", piku", and the live version of "setting sun".  this is def the weirdest question i've ever gotten, but it's making me think hard.  an artist who loves stretching out bass for almost painful amounts of time is fatboy slim, you could check out "everybody needs a 303" (which comes REALLY CLOSE, its just a song dedicated to the 303 bassline generator, which makes that sound),  and "kalifornia".  hope these help.  i'm also harsh@harshpatel.com

Chemical Brothers fan since...well, forever. Own all work except Tom`s Ariel releases and the original Dust vinyls. But not like that`s stopped me. Drop me a line if you`re interested in knowing about any Chems info in general, especially their phenomenal remix work.
