What’s up everyone? Well I’m back from my self-imposed hiatus, I needed some time to recuperate and be generally lazy while I had the chance, but I hope you all had a happy and healthy holiday season. Over the break my friends over at the New Philadelphia threw an absolute banger of a new years party, head over to their facebook page to check out some of the great pics. For today I’m back with a new crop of great…
Happy Friday everyone. The holiday season has arrived, which means its once again time to stand in long lines at the mall while listening to horrible Christmas songs that no one actually likes. In other words, it’s the most wonderful time of the year. That being said, I do hope you all have a good holiday weekend coming up where you have a chance to rest and relax with family and good friends. I have a few holiday goodies for…
Well finals are finally over with, which means I’ve officially made it to my last semester as an undergraduate. I prefer not to think about the consequences of that just yet, but either way it also means that I’m on my way back to Philly tomorrow for a few weeks of R and R with the New Philadelphia crew. I’m already starting to get excited for their new years party with Trouble & Bass residents Samo Sound Boy and The…
Happy Friday everyone. Unfortunately it’s not feeling much like the weekend around here due to the fact that I’m buried in a pile of work and need to somehow crawl out by Monday. So for all of you who are stressing about your finals, I hope these tunes can talk you off the edge and provide a good soundtrack for your late nights at the library, cafe, or wherever you choose to waste (i mean wisely spend) your time studying….
So I was browsing through Mad Decent’s most recent Soundcloud Roundup, a feature they run every week to promote up and coming unsigned artists, when guess who’s name should appear but Montreal’s own Jaekwon Waxmoney (aka Jacob Waxman). I’ve featured his tracks before on the blog, and this most recent track “Off Balance” is a slice of bass-heavy goodness layered in between very chill melodic vibes. Big ups to the man for getting some recognition from one of the biggest…
So as promised, here are the photos for Bassnectar’s incredible show at Metropolis last Friday. The venue was in top form that night, filled to the rafters with loyal bassheads eager to get their fix. Montreal natives Dooze Jackers set the tone for the evening, playing a great selection of tropical, moombathon, and dutch bass music that got the crowd more than ready for the opening act. These guys have been on a tear as of late, so check out…
Happy Friday everyone. For those of you were at the Bassnectar show last Friday I promise pictures are coming very soon! It was a sick show and the pictures turned out great, so stay tuned. As for the music today, I have to say that I think this was the best week for new releases in quite some time. For you all today, I have new tracks from Pleasurekraft, Congorock, NT89 and Avicii….plus a new remix from the Bloody Beetroots,…
It’s shameful that it’s taken me so long to write up a review of a release by one of my favorite artists, but better late than never I suppose. Renaissance Man Project, released at the beginning of November on Turbo records, is the latest creation of Finnish duo Renaissance Man, who I’ve praised profusely on many occasions in the past. Their new LP spans the spectrum all the way from bizzare, yet extremely creative art-house type music, to insanely catchy…
Happy Friday everyone. I hope you’re all preparing yourselves for the madness of Bassnectar @ Metropolis tonight, because this one is definitely gonna get wild. Bassnectar is making Montreal the second-to-last stop on his long North American tour, and the crowds are sure to be out in full force to show some support for the original Bass Head. I would also like to take this time to wish my fellow Americans a happy thanksgiving. In the spirit of the…
OWSLA is back in a big way with the recent release of “Kill Kill Kill,” the newest EP from LA’s Kill The Noise. Heavy bass is what we’ve come to expect from Skrillex’s OWSLA label, and this one certainly delivers on that front. This 10 track EP features six originals from KTN as well as remixes from KOAN Sound, Alvin Risk, Dillon Francis and Brown & Gammon, all serious emerging artists in EDM and dubstep in particular. Check out a…
