Back 2 Basics
Wildstylez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Back to the basics

Yeah, you know
We gotta remember why we fell in love with house music
We gotta go back to the basics

Yeah, you know
I see people stressing out and spazzing out all the time
Talking about what kinda style they like
They like it hard
They like it minimal
They like it techy
They like it tracky
And the funny thing is what everybody forgets
When they're going on about what kinda music they like
And what kinda style they like in this day and age
The digital age, the computer age
Is at the end of the day
It's all house music
That we live for

That we live for

Yeah, you know




We gotta remember why we fell in love with house music
We gotta get back to the basics

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Wildstylez's song Back 2 Basics speak to the importance of returning to the foundational elements of house music. The singer is urging listeners to remember why they fell in love with house music in the first place, and to remember that despite different sub-genres and styles, it all comes down to house music. The singer notes that in the modern digital age, people seem to get caught up in categorizing and defining their preferred styles, whether it be hard, minimal, techy, or tracky. But the singer reminds us that in the end, all of these sub-genres fall under the umbrella of house music, and that we should never forget that.


The lyrics to Back 2 Basics are a powerful reminder of why house music is such an important and enduring genre. House music emerged in the 1980s in Chicago, and quickly spread across the United States and around the world. Its roots are in disco and soul music, but house music is characterized by its fast beats, synthesized sounds, and repetitive rhythms. Over the years, house music has spawned countless sub-genres, from deep house to acid house to tech house. Despite the many variations, however, the basic elements of house music remain the same: a focus on rhythm, a pulsing beat, and a sense of shared communal experience on the dance floor.


Overall, the lyrics to Back 2 Basics offer a powerful message of unity and reconciliation within the house music community. The singer encourages listeners to set aside their differences and to remember why they fell in love with this powerful genre of music in the first place.
