History
The future bass roots can be traced back to Burial's self-titled album, released in 2006.[5] The genre was pioneered by Rustie, Hudson Mohawke and RL Grime, who began producing future bass tracks in 2010.[6] One of the first popularity-fueling releases in the genre was Rustie album Glass Swords, released in 2011.[7] Later, in 2013, the Flume remix for Disclosure's song "You & Me" brought the genre into the mainstream.[8]
Then future bass became popular in the United Kingdom, United States, Japan, China, Korea and Australia.[5]
Future bass tracks with mainstream pop influences often use supersaw chords. Underground tracks tend to experiment, blending real instruments into the songs and using many different sounds.
