If you are using FL Studio then you can use the same one I used under FL Studio>Data>Patches>Packs>Drum Kit 04>FLS_Kick 04.wav it should sound something like this. Don't worry about the pitch part yet just find yourself a classic 808 kick sound without any distortion. The core of the G6 sound is an 808 sample that has a perceivable pitch. Yes that is right, get yourself an 808 kick sample. Note: I will be using FL Studio but any DAW can be used if you have similar plugins.

If you wanted to know how to recreate that sound for a remix or to have it as a sound option in your own track then read on like a G6!

Aside from the icy vocals from the artist Dev, G6 has a very memorable bass line. If you listen to the radio, go into upscale bars, or dance at the clubs you probably have heard Far East Movement's 'Like a G6'.
