Maestro of bass, original dubstep provocateur, friend of LIAS, political rabblerouser and all around supernatural EDM talent Bassnectar blesses the world with a brand new mixtape today, simply titled the Freestyle mixtape. Mr. Lorin Ashton’s chest-rattling 40-minute set offers remixes, collaborations and guest appearances by the likes of Hudson Mohawke, Ming & FS, Zion I, Mimi Page, rapper Angel Haze, DC Breaks and more, and is yet another example of why the San Francisco artist is one of the best selling touring producer/DJs on the planet. But unlike the glut of Dutch build-n-crash trance hacks headlining festivals, Ashton is one of the few Big Name producers who pushes himself to innovate while others take baby naps and collect Vegas paychecks. National Public Radio’s Jim Derogatis said of Bassnectar on his Sound Opinions show last week, “I don’t think there has been anybody this inventive making electronic music since Richard James.” For any fans of the great Aphex Twin, you know what a profound compliment that is.
