Atonal music is
music
that is written with the
avoidance
of a
sense
of
key
. This is usually accomplished by the repeated use of
dissonance
.
Classical music
began to dissolve conventional
tonality
in the beginning of the
20th century
, and this idea was imported into
jazz
music.

A more
literal
definition of atonal from a c
omposition
al standpoint would be "without relying on the tonal center that diatonic harmony provides."
In
diatonic harmony
, a C major scale revolves around the C. With atonality there is no starting tone or
baseline
to work from. And I meant baseline, not
bass line
.
