Dubstep | R Rated #56
Posted by Sev on November 21, 2012
Kicking off this weeks Thanksgiving edition of R Rated, it is only right to have an excess of tunes to add some filth to your holidays. First up we have this free tune from Pegboard Nerds, who have been tearing the scene apart lately. This track was given away as a gift for their 20k followers. These guys have yet to release a tune less than amazing so grab this free download HERE.
Next up are two previews from an artist who has been making a name for himself and is a part of the Firepower Crew. It is none other than AFK, who previewed two new heavy originals by himself, but no release dates yet. Both of these tracks are monstrous and have me excited to see what he is going to release next.
DeadExit is a new group with three members, and one of them being none other heavy hitter Crissy Criss. They released a mix about a week ago showcasing some of their new material, but yesterday they released their first free track. When Crissy Criss is involved in creating a track you know that it is going to pack a punch and have some crazy sounds. Grab the free download and keep an eye out for a EP release soon.
It has been a while since we heard any new material from Zanetic. It seems as though he has been locked in the studio creating and mixing down his latest EP which is set to release on Dec. 3rd. He was kind enough to give us this free DL from the EP that is a crazy glich hop tune. You can download the track HERE.
Vital Techniques & Mikey B just unleashed this outstanding Drumstep VIP of one of their tracks. It is everything you want and more in a VIP. This is a must have for everyone.
Dubstep, Electronic | Kastle – Stay Forever (Tour VIP Remix)
Posted by W8 on November 21, 2012
I can’t recall a time that I ever legitimately considered co-signing an artist 100% until now. Kastle is literally a gem onto himself. Forget about an individual track that stands alone, this man’s entire catalogue is just rinsed with gems. A plentiful quantity that happens to be all quality. I would highly recommend you head over to his Soundcloud and bathe in this absuuurd treasure trove. Can’t believe I slept on Kastle, forgive me.
Dubstep | Konec – Cascade EP
Posted by Sev on November 19, 2012
Rising star Konec has just released his first EP entitled Cacade EP, out not on ‘Dub-All or Nothing’. Most well known for his laser filled remix to N*ggas in Paris that has been rinsed out by xKore during his FP tour sets; that remix barely scratches the surface of what he has in store. This EP has a nice 16-bit/old school video game theme to it that won me over after my first play of Cascade. The intro to Cascade lures me into the track every time, and not to mention the amazing melody and transition into the intense drop. With Jaguar there is more epic feel throughout, with pauses in the intro between chords. After we have the suspenseful build-up complete, we get a taste of the drop a few seconds before, after which we are hit with the heavy growl along with some jaguar sounds between. The amount of detail in both tracks is outstanding, and each listen through you notice more and more. Along with the two originals we also have two fantastic remixes provided by Poisound and Centra. Poisound takes Jaguar and gives it his usually deathly drumstep touch to transform the track into a fast paced banger. Centra’s remix to Cascade is more along the lines of his uplifting style of DnB with a nice nero-funk styled drop. Be sure to grab this EP off of Beatport HERE, or iTunes UK HERE, or iTunes US HERE. As a little added bonus we got to talk with this outstanding artist in an interview that can be read after the jump below. It’s one of my favorite interviews to date, so don’t miss it. Show him some support on his social media’s that can be found in the links below.

Drum & Bass, Dubstep | MitiS – Endeavors / Alive Remix
Posted by Spice on November 19, 2012
A couple of solid freebies from MitiS, in which we see the young producer return to his glitchier, DnB-inflected roots. “Endeavors” combines the energy of drumstep with the catchy melodies we’ve come to expect from this classically trained pianist, while his remix of Krewella’s “Alive” transforms the electro house banger into something seriously heavy. Can’t get enough of MitiS? Check him out on Soundcloud for more goodies.
Dubstep | Feature Cuts – Rage Values (Original Mix)
Posted by Jess on November 19, 2012
In what is his debut single on Beatport, Feature Cuts teams up with Excision’s Rottun Records to release “Rage Values”. The track is a serious brain-melter with heavy bass and wobbles that will make you want to rage even on a Monday morning. The single is definitely worthy of the name “Rage Values”. Stream the track below and if you dig what you hear, purchase the track on Beatport.
Dubstep, Glitch, Moombahton | Daft Punk – Robot Rock [The Frim Remix]
Posted by Sev on November 17, 2012
What a way to kick off Saturday night. The Frim comes through with this funky remix to an all time classic of Daft Punk’s Robot Rock. He turns this Electronic remix upside down, and gives it a nice grimy feel at a mid-tempo speed. This is a just a taste of what is to come on his EP this week, more specifically Nov. 20th. Grab this free download HERE.
Dubstep | Ansol & Dyro – Top Of The World (Dyro Dubstep Rework)
Posted by Sev on November 16, 2012
This caught me a little off guard today. This memorable house anthem from UMF this year by Ansol & Dyro that won everyone over during Afrojacks set, has been reworked by Dyro. It seems as though he has been rinsing this Dubstep rework he created in his sets. Wasn’t expecting this from a house producer, but he delivered a destructive remix to this great track. Brace your self because he is going to rock your speakers with his distorted growls accompanied by his appealing melodies. He almosts puts some of the dubstep producers today to shame with this one. Grab it off Beatport HERE
