About this sound

✦ AI

The dubstep remix of Awolnation's Sail, with its heavy bass drop and slow build, used in edits, sports highlights and dramatic meme videos online.

This is a fifteen second clip from the Unlimited Gravity dubstep remix of Sail by Awolnation, built around the song's slow, brooding pulse. The original vocal and synth line are chopped and stretched over deep sub bass, wobbling synths and a heavy drop that hits with physical weight. It does not rush, it looms, letting tension build bar by bar before the bass takes over. That dark, confident energy makes ordinary footage feel larger and more intense, like a trailer moment where something powerful is about to happen.

Sail was released by American electronic rock project Awolnation in 2010 and appeared on the 2011 album Megalithic Symphony. Its minimal beat, distorted bass and repeated plea to be sailed away made it a favourite for trailers, television spots and online edits. The Unlimited Gravity dubstep remix pushed that mood further into bass music, and short clips circulated widely in the early dubstep era of YouTube and Vine style edits, where its slow build and drop became shorthand for intensity, confidence and impending action.
