In 1980, The Police released “Don’t Stand So Close to Me,” a track with an opening bass drone that felt like it could shake the earth—except that, when I listened in headphones, my brain was being slightly tricked. In this video, I’ll show you how music hacks your brain into hearing bass that doesn’t actually exist.

We’ll explore:
The science of “imaginary bass” and how your brain fills in the gaps.
The story behind tiny headphones in the 80s and their surprising limitations.
How producers today create basslines that punch through on even the smallest speakers.

Plus, I’ll reveal how this bass wizardry connects to iconic songs, groundbreaking synth technology, and some audio secrets that will change the way you hear music forever. Finally, I’ll show you how to create your own drone bass designed to blow your audience’s mind.
