Electro-House, House | Birthdayy Partyy Take On Bassnectar Classic With Latest Remix

Posted by on June 5, 2018

When Birthdayy Partyy come out with a remix, usually it’s one of their throw back ones. However, they do dabble in the dance world when they get a chance – after all, they already have official remixes for both Autograf and LUZCID out. Other than that, they’ve put out an edit of another EDM tune and now they have taken on Bassnectar’s most classic record, “Bass Head.” Birthdayy Partyy flip the tune into their own house edit that I can only imagine goes off well live. If you happen to be going to Spring Awakening, you just might here them drop it. It’s a set you won’t want to miss.

Bass, Chill, Dubstep | Big_Once Brings The Bass With “Buck Shots”

Tuesday is always a great day for new music and today is no exception. Big_Once who is slated to play this year’s Lollapalooza dropped a fire original in the middle of the night he calls “Buck Shots”. The track has a sound that’s hard to pigeon-hole into just one genre. 90’s hip hop lyrics and a groove that sounds like it would be at home at an old Pretty Lights show make this bass track something special. This guy is also a technical badass behind the decks. He judges many Red Bull Thre3style competitions and took home the U.S. Championship title for himself in 2011.

Bass, Mashups | DOSVEC – Where is my Bitch

Posted by on April 1, 2015

Just the other day I was thinking,”That song, in the Acura ILX commercial, is really catchy. Someone should really do something with that”. Fast forward I give you DOSVEC “Where is my Bitch”.

Taking Luda’s classic and infusing it with Bassnectar’s remix of Pixies “Where is my Mind”. The end product is a song that will surely make anyone rage.

Events | Five Things We Can’t Wait For At Electric Zoo 2013

Posted by on August 8, 2013

Summer is flying by, which is bittersweet on one hand but totally amazing on the other. Why? Because it means that we’re getting closer and closer to Electric Zoo’s blowout fifth year. If you’re not up on your EZoo life, check out our official recap video from last year and see what you missed. Yeah — it was pretty killer. Fortunately, this year is already shaping up to be bigger and better than ever for many reasons, not least of which are:

1) Two mainstages (count ’em, TWO) and an expanded festival site on Randall’s Island. More on that later.

2) A new 18 and up policy. Sorry, youths (#YOUTHS) of the world — I’m too old for your shenanigans and look forward to mingling with an older and wiser crowd. *Wheezes; testily gestures for you to GET OFF MY LAWN.*

3) A totally killer lineup — which is par for the course by EZoo’s standards. There’s lots to be excited about here, but we’ve come up with five things that we’re especially stoked for. Check ’em out after the jump.

Events | Ultra Music Festival 2013 — Weekend 2 Recap (Or, If I Never Hear “Clarity” Again, It Will Be Too Soon)

Posted by on April 9, 2013

“You know, the mainstage doesn’t look that awesome this year. In fact, it kind of looks smaller than it did last year.”

I was sitting on a friend’s couch drinking a lukewarm Bud Light and watching Nicky Romero’s Weekend 1 set on a Macbook. We didn’t have the good speakers plugged in because someone was napping upstairs, so the sound was tinny and easy to talk over. The TV mounted to the wall was tuned to NCAA basketball with the volume off. It was early on Friday evening and I was in the process of getting over bronchitis. A bag of Doritos was making the rounds.

“Shit guys. This stage is bullshit.” I grabbed a fistful of Doritos and gestured at the computer. “Look at it. It’s just sitting there, being purple. God, the mainstage is going to effing suck this year.” My friends nodded sagely. I leaned back, satisfied that my point had hit home, and turned my attention to the basketball game.

Of all the things I’ve been wrong about in my life, this has got to be top three.

Dubstep | Underworld – Rez (Bassnectar Remix)

Posted by on February 12, 2013

bassnectar rez

Did I tell you that this was an awesome week for releases, or did I tell you that this was an awesome week for releases? Add Lorin Ashton to the varsity roster of artists dropping bombs between February 11th and 15th. If you haven’t already taken his spacey, heady reboot of the tech-trance mindmelt that is “Rez” for a spin or two or twenty, now is the time to redeem yourself. Listening to this song is probably as close as we’re currently able to get to knowing what it’s like to be sucked through a wormhole. If that doesn’t sway you, this should: you know a track is something serious when Bassnectar uses it to usher in 2013 from the helm of a 360-degree LED pod (see above). “Rez” is out now on US iTunes and vinyl, if you’re into that, via Child’s Play Records.
