"Planet of the Bass" is a 2023 novelty song by comedian Kyle Gordon, released as the lead single of his debut album ''Kyle Gordon is Great''.
Styled as a [[AffectionateParody parody]] of [[TheNineties Nineties]] [[{{Europop}} Eurodance]], it features Gordon as his DJ Crazy Times persona with featured vocalist Biljana Electronica, another character performed by vocalist Chrissi Poland and portrayed by Audrey Trullinger.
Prior to its official release in August 2023, a video clip of the song featuring Gordon and Trullinger as their characters went viral on platforms like Website/{{TikTok}} and Website/{{Twitter}}, building hype for its eventual premiere.
