"Welcome to Future Garage, where emotions run deep and basslines run deeper. A home for introverts, it serves to enhance an atmosphere that other genres would only shatter: working a night shift; driving home from a party, or waiting for a train on an empty platform. The genre is, in a way, the liminal space of UK underground music." (Stereofox, 2021)

“It’s raw, gritty and unpolished hip hop that normally features a DJ scratching.” - DJ Premier

“[Boom Bap is] the style of production which came to define an era of hip hop during the ’90s. These days, however, the notion of tagging something as boom bap has become more of a backhanded compliment. The phrase is frequently applied to East Coast hip hop to suggest that its architects are dated and trading on former glories.” - Phillip Mlynar, 2013.

“The term "boom bap" is an onomatopoeia that represents the sounds used for the bass (kick) drum and snare drum, respectively. The style is usually recognized by a main drum loop that uses a hard-hitting, acoustic bass drum sample on the downbeats, a snappy acoustic snare drum sample on the upbeats, and an "in your face" audio mix emphasizing the drum loop, and the kick-snare combination in particular.” - Simon Reynolds, 2009.
