Track DescriptionAvailable in:
"Bass Down Low" is the debut single by American recording artist Dev. It was written by Dev alongside its producers, The Cataracs, who also appeared on the track. The song was released on November 16, 2010, through Universal Republic as the lead single for Dev's debut studio album, The Night the Sun Came Up (2011). Initially, the song was made for The Cataracs with Dev as the featured act, but she was made the main artist as they believed it would be a suitable follow-up to Far East Movement's "Like a G6", which she appeared on. British rapper Tinie Tempah was featured on an official remix of "Bass Down Low" that was made for the song's release in the United Kingdom. Musically, "Bass Down Low" is an electropop song with skittering synths and the lyrics speak of different forms of debauchery.
The song was met with positive reviews from critics. Commercially, "Bass Down Low" performed moderately in the United States, peaking at number 61 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number two on the Top Heatseekers chart. The song also reached the top forty in Canada and Ireland. It achieved its highest peak in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at number ten in June 2011, and became Dev's second British top ten hit, following "Like a G6" alongside Far East Movement. The accompanying music video for "Bass Down Low" takes place in an underground club. The clip was directed by Ethan Lader who took inspiration from fashion and the film Fight Club.
