Can anyone tell me what "Bounce and Donk" is

[wainy]

Now I always thought I was still up on the music scene since I was younger. At uni I was exposed to all sorts and new genres which I never new existed (house, garage, trance, hard house etc etc) but I have just seen an advert and I think I have missed something. Maybe hitting 30 made me miss the last 2 years of music progression.

There is something called "Bounce and Donk" which sounds like most of the music you will hear blasting out of a car driven by a chav round McDonalds carpark.

Anyone know what this is?

Sounds like house music would if it was produced by Showaddywaddy to me...

the "Donk" is the distinctive sound that you hear running most of the way through the songs.

I used to love it a couple of years ago when it was in the early days and, believe it or not, actually pretty good! It is very much a North-West thing (also previously called Scouse House) and not just for chav's either. I'm not a "chav" at all but in a similar way to trance music if you're in a club you quickly find yourself getting carried away by the music and the bass from the "donk" isn't quite the same experienced through computer speakers.

I feel sorry for the youth of today if they have that to listen to

Is there an echo on here tonight?

Appalling.

How to take an entire genre of music, thats grown up over decades executed along the way by geniuses to give a generation their very own zeitgeist and reduce it to a fking ringtone.

When it first started there was some ok stuff, but then all the producers got lazy and promptly just started putting the same donk under every track and it became massively st
