bass face has two definitions;

1) a musical variation of the poker face in which the bass player of a given band wears an expression lacking any noticeable emotion, giving them an anonymous, emotionally distant appearance.

2) A bass face is the name given to the face a DJ or audiophile when a beat drops or a bassline is particularly compelling and gritty. This use of the term is used for electronic music, especially drum & bass, dubstep, and any other dance music where the main interest is the bassline.
