A while back I posted an amazing Soundsystem from India that used cassettes. But now I accidentally stumbled upon a whole Instagram Surjo00787

This is call Dek Bass and has been described as:

Dek bass is a South Asian sound‑system style built for extreme volume and visceral low end. Tracks center on long, sustained sub‑bass tones, triplet or rolling percussion drawn from regional drumming traditions, and shrill, high‑pitched effects (sirens, whistles, sped‑up vocal bits) that cut through the air at outdoor events.

The name is commonly linked to the use of cassette decks ("dek/deck") and locally engineered speaker stacks in village "box competitions"—sound‑clash‑like battles where crews try to outdo each other in power, clarity, and crowd reaction. Music is functional first: arrangements are simple, with extended builds and punishing drops designed to stress‑test cones, shake bodies, and hype the gathering.

Yeaaaaa
