Hip-Hop | Tayyib Ali – Dreaming (Prod. by The Astronauts)

Posted by on June 13, 2012

With his head high, Tayyib has been very eager to give his fans what they want.  New music.  Linking up with one of his top production duo’s, The Astronauts,  Tay releases the latest single off his third coming mixtape.   In the past they have collaborated on “High Definition”, “Tomorrow”, and “Never Change” and I think it’s safe to say we can expect more work in the near future.  Tay spit me some of these bars acapella back when I interviewed him in Boston and I’ve been waiting for the final product ever since.  Although the prince of Philly still has a way to go to be where he ultimately see’s himself, he’s got the demeanor and potential to make it there.

In other news, Tayyib and label-mate, Logic, are preparing to kick off their first even nationwide tour on July 7th, presented by Visionary Music Group.  There’s no reason why you shouldn’t grab your tickets now! Full details after the break.

Dubstep | R Rated #32

Posted by on June 6, 2012

Alright so for the past few days we have been slacking a little on the dubstep, but fear not because we will make it all up today in R Rated. This isn’t the way Sev and I would have wanted to catch up, but we saw fit for the situation. So we will start off with previews and releases and move towards some of the best free tunes we have seen in weeks. Brainpain getting a preview up on Bass Union of his upcoming release on Ultragore. The best way and only way to describe this track is, monstrous! Holy hell my speakers are experiencing the biggest bass overload right now. Next we have a few previews of upcoming tracks, that can’t be left unexposed. Killsonik just coming off of a successful release of their EP and are already providing an amazing remix for Calvin Harris feat. Examples new tune “We’ll Be Coming Back”. Killed it.

This next producer is one of the most under-looked and under-rated producers in dubstep currently. Flinch is doing big things that nobody knows about and this remix surely falls under that category. Remixing an older release from Buygore by Captain Crunch and Fytch entitled “Raindrops” proving his talent and ingenuity. Can’t wait for this release, which is forthcoming on Buygore if I didn’t mention it already.

This last preview just went up only about an hour ago. AFK and The Frim have collaborated on a VIP mix of a heavy tune that has been smashing the stages for Rusko and many other artist for a while now. Definitely did not see this coming, but The Frim is another underrated producer who is slowly making his way to the top. The tune will be free at 5k likes on AFK’s Facebook page, so get on it. Here is the link to their FACEBOOK.

These next two release I’m sad that I wasn’t able to post, but as long as they get their recognition I will be satisfied. This tune by Caspa has been on my most wanted list ever since it was first previewed at Creamfields last year. It is one of the most disgusting, hard-hitting tunes I have ever heard. Not to undersell this release by Subshock as well, because it is just about in the same league as far as destructiveness and bass goes.

Exclusive, House | Hardwell- Spaceman (Stars Above Sound of Summer Remix)

Posted by on May 15, 2012


When a star is formed, it materializes out of cloud of cool, dense molecular gas. In order for it to form, however, the cloud needs to collapse, increase in density, and heat up. At temperatures of millions of degrees, nuclear fusion begins at the center of the gas clump and a star is miraculously born.

Much like the process of the formation of a star, Stars Above (real name Joshua Bull) has been heating up the blog galaxy as of late with his previous “Vacation” EP as well as his “Ladi Dadi” and “Raise Your Head” remixes. Self-described as an “obsessive productive” Stars Above (real name Joshua Bull) has been an artist since his inception, playing the drums at six and making hip-hop beats on his parent’s computer at 15.

Indeed, the great Albert Einstein once posited, “You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.” More than just playing by the rules, Stars Above is making his own, as he continues to make a name for himself. Let his new exclusive remix of Hardwell’s “Spaceman” transport you to another galaxy.
