Speed garage (occasionally known as plus-8[1]) is a genre of electronic dance music, associated with the UK garage scene, of which it is regarded as one of its subgenres.[2]
Characteristics
Speed garage features sped-up NY garage 4-to-the-floor rhythms that are combined with breakbeats.[3] Snares are placed as over the 2nd and the 4th kickdrums, so in other places of the drum pattern.[4] Speed garage tunes have warped, heavy basslines, influenced by jungle[5] and reggae.[6] Sweeping bass is typical for speed garage.[7] It is also typical for speed garage tunes to have a breakdown.[8] Speed garage tunes sometimes featured time-stretched vocals.[9] As it is heavily influenced by jungle, speed garage makes heavy use of jungle and dub sound effects, such as gunshots and sirens.[10][11]
Resurgence in the 2020s
In the early 2020s, speed garage experienced a notable resurgence within the UK music scene. This renewed interest in speed garage has been accompanied by a broader UK garage revival.[12]
In November 2024, Interplanetary Criminal teamed up with Sammy Virji to release "Damager".[13]
