an instrument in the drumline that almost EVERYBODY wants to play. The drummers of these items usually are the cockiest and/or craziest guys in the line and their school, but their drum is always the only one on the field you can hear, so they have a right to be.
that one drum that's not vertical but is at times tilted to the drummer's right is a snare drum.

Not mindless noise at all, as Burkey tries to claim. The basic premise is pattern based loops put over drum loops, but instead of your regular 4/4 um-tiss-um-tiss drums, it's set over the more flowing breakbeat format. The term drum and bass defines the predominent sounds you get: drums and bass are the sounds that are more predominent. It sticks wit a simple-but-effective motive towards melodies (or basslines is the case of dnb) but the complexity comes in the production of these sounds. The general rule for the sounds are bigger and badder is better, but depending on the style (there are also liquid and more ambient styles) this is also not the case. For those chart-dwellers who aren't quite sure of what this music is like, if you can refer back a few years when a few artists broke through (shy fx & t power, roni size, goldie and pendulum more recently) thats the kind of premise it follows, but that's only the surface of what is such a varied genre of music.to understand this music and to listen to the best, look for the artists in my examples.

rave/club music featuring a prominent bassline, breakbeats (non four to the floor drum beats), samples and a tempo of around 160-180 bpm. drum and bass came from jungle music, which itself was a merger of the sounds of early rave music, reggae/dub and hip hop. this music is the bollocks, if u don't like it, u should!! take some gurners and u might feel differently...
drum and bass is heard live via a dj who spins original tracks and remixes by producers, sometimes an MC is also present to hype the crowd up.
"i love drum and bass!!!"

The one band kid that isn't actually a band kid. AKA the coolest person in the band along with the drum major. Usually likes to hit things with sticks, including drumheads, practice pads, and bass drummers. The hottest guy or girl in the band that every girl or guy wants to get with.
Band Geek? No, I'm the drum captain.

Or an "808" refer to the Roland TR-808 Rythem Machine that was popular in the 80s and 90s.
The 808 became popular because they could be opened up and "de-tuned" with a few knobs to produce diffrent sounds and outputs that would other wise not be possible from the 808. Commonly used to produce very low leaky sounding bass.
artists who use or refrence the 808 include: The Bestie Boys, Sir Mix Alot, Cypress Hill, Tom Jones, Afriak Bambaataa

nothing sounds quite like an 808.
