Dubstep | R Rated #39
Posted by Sev on July 25, 2012
Helicopter Showdown is the underdog of the Dubstep scene. They have always been producing heavy, monstrous tracks that have been played by many big-time artist, but never got the recognition for their work. I have to say though their latest preview maybe a track that might be one of their best depending on how they finish it off. Those reggae plucking guitars with the melody build-up so well into the drop.
Mach and I haven’t been able to stop listening to this next preview by Enigma Dubz. This preview of his latest Deep-Dubstep track that is releasing soon has been driving us crazy. Seeing some heavier stuff coming from him, and we can’t wait to get our hands on this EP.
TomBudin coming through and absolutely smashing this remix of Pendulum’s Tarantula. Wasn’t expecting this at all, but yet again the reggae vibes mixed with the heavy dubstep come through to save the day. I have a feeling we are going to be seeing more of this artist around here.
Haven’t seen Oscillator Z drop any of his usual heavy stuff lately, but this Trance-Dubstep original caught my attention yesterday. After attempting to create a trance track he was able to produce a nice melodic, yet heavy, Drumstep tune that I thought turned out pretty sick. The uplifting trance sections give a euphoric feeling through the track before he brings in some heavy drums to lead you through a fast paced Drumstep drop.

Dubstep | Major Lazer – Original Don ft. The Partysquad (Helicopter Showdown Remix)
Posted by Sev on June 20, 2012
Helicopter Showdown has become a staple in my dubstep playlist with there heavy screeching drops and bass thumping beats. They previewed their latest remix of Major Lazer’s Original Don about a month ago, and decided it was time for the world to have this aggressive remix. If you are thinking this track is going to be similar to Flosstradamus’s you are completely incorrect, so don’t even bother thinking what it is going to sound like and just hit play.

Posted by Sev on March 26, 2012
Slowly but surely more and more artist are taking their stab at some form of Moombahton. You can add Helicopter Showdown to the growing list of artists who are putting out some form of Moombahton. One of their most well known tracks, Dramatron which was a big hit during last years UMF played out by Rusko, is now in Moombah VIP form. This is definitely some of the more heavier form of Moombah and FYI at 20k likes on their Facebook page they will release this track on their upcoming EP for FREE!

: DFace slowly climbing his way to the top of Moombahton, just released his second EP on Rot10 Music. Lots of new sounds from him as well as veering away from the heavy Moombahcore sounds we are so used to hearing from him. Nevertheless : Dface knows what he is doing when it comes to Moombahton so be sure to show him some support.
No Stopping EP
Bro Safari pulling a Skrillex on this tune and remixing his own track. With that said, this track is banger. He needed to add a little more spice into his SXSW and WMC sets, so he took one of his most highly known tracks, Da Worm, and buffed it up. Adding some nice transitions and BPM changes as well as a heavy bass synth sound that adds a nice flex to this track. You would be dumb not to grab this free download.

Next up is a duo that is new to me that I didn’t even know existed until I received an email about them. As individual artists you might know them as Killagraham and NYMZ. Killagraham is no stranger to heavy dubstep tunes, while NYMZ brings some House and Moombah flavor to the duo. As a group they go by Milo & Otis dropping some funky Moombah tunes. Show these guys some love and like there new Facebook page, you won’t regret it.
