MUSICIAN & ZINE ARTIST

DARRYL JENIFER

Bass Guitar & Dub Foundation • Washington, D.C. • Since 1977

The rhythmic anchor and co-producer behind Bad Brains. Darryl's aggressive pick attack and deep subterranean dub basslines formed the bedrock of hardcore punk bass playing, inspiring generations of punk and hip-hop producers.

“The bass has to shake the concrete floor beneath the pit, whether you're blasting at two hundred beats per minute or slowing down into deep dub.”
