Artist History The production duo known as BASS 305 consist of brothers Mark and David Watson. BASS 305 was formed in 1992 after the Watson Brothers left Atlantic Records where they produced and wrote Pop and Dance projects for the label. The duo started recording modern instrumental music in the same vein as early Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk. “We started adding an extreme low moving Bass part to the compositions. What was created was a very highly sophisticated electronic music with “Miami Bass” low end. The music sounded like the Electronic Avant-Guard experimental music that I did at University of South Florida, where John Cage was briefly a professor, states Mark. The project, later entitled, Digital Bass was the first Album released by BASS 305. David and Mark recorded the Album at their studio in Ft. Lauderdale in mid-September of 1992. “I used every trick in the book to make that record sound great!”, states Mark, who credits Eddy Offord, long-time Yes Producer, as the person that taught him a lot about engineering and producing records. After the success of their first Album, David and Mark started creating new titles. To date, they have hit the Billboard Charts numerous times and have sold over 1,400,000 Albums according to SoundScan in the U.S.!
