We were pretty floored when we caught James Blake over at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery last month, so we’re stoked with any mixtape that makes the post-dubstep artist a prime subject. Drake…? Not so much, but we ain’t haters either. Philly producers Bombé & Mr. Caribbean do a nice job of blending the otherwise disparate […]

Toronto dubstep producer/DJ Bombaman — aka Michael David — drops this mix for Monsta Sounds. The Canadian definitely likes swimming in dark waters, so press play only if you dig it with lots of sub and lots of jigsaw soundwaves, shit is sinister… Bombaman’s “Monsta Sounds” mixtape below, full tracklist after the Jump… Monsta Sounds […]

Caught James Blake‘s show at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery’s Masonic Lodge last night, and it was impressive. Blake’s post-dubstep sound could not have been married to a better location, a symbol-riddled wood-beamed lodge nestled in LA’s most famous graveyard with a shirt-ruffling soundsystem. When Blake’s piano-led tracks kick into their rolling beats, the bass, syncopated […]

IFC yesterday debuted the video for Rusko’s latest single “Everyday”. Directed by Jason Miller, the video juxtaposes the positivity of Rusko’s dancefloor anthem with scenes from the Salton Sea — one of the most economically depressed areas of California, a standing environmental disaster a couple hours outside of Palm Springs. Regardless of what a shithole […]

Mad Decent’s resident dubstep champion Rusko drops his first official single today since last summer’s debut album O.M.G. The track, “Everyday”, comes loaded with remixes by the likes of Netsky, Original Sin (who give it the drum n bass treatment) and a funky garage remix from DJ Q. The B-side “Lick The Lizard” is a […]

Well, I suppose this was inevitable. I know people are getting sick of the whole Charlie Sheen thing already, but really — have you ever known a public meltdown in human history better suited for a dubstep remix? Me thinks not. The whole Adonis DNA, tiger blood, being from another terrestrial plane rant — it’s […]

Los Angeles via Brooklyn via Trinidad and Tobago MC Juakali has been lacing flows over bass-influenced tracks since his debut on Pinch’s Underwater Dancehall record in 2007. In that time the globetrotting lyricist has remained innovative across dub, reggae, dubstep, dancehall, bhangra, grime, electronic and experimental genres, always keeping the anchor of bass as the […]

It’s been a minute since drum & bass ruled the electronic landscape with a mighty bass fist, and American DJ/producer Dieselboy was Lord Supreme of the American shores. But the once and future king of Pittsburgh dancefloor mayhem (do he and Girl Talk share Superbowl nacho recipes?) still lights it up, and he’s just delivered […]
