Dubstep, Electronic | Deadmau5, Teknian, and Oscillator Z
Posted by Sev on April 23, 2012
I whipped up a few mellow dubstepish, melodic, electronic tracks that were released in the past few days. Been chilling to these killer tunes, and there was a last minute surprise addition from Mr.Dead-mau-five. Deadmau5 dropping some “Cthulhustep” as he calls it. The mau5 has been expanding out of his progressive spotlight and dabbling with some new idea’s, which are always great to hear from such a respected artist.
The 17-year old producer has done it again. It seems as though Teknian has no boundaries whatsoever. Dropping two amazing tunes in the past three days. First, is a downtempo, serene original track meant to ease the mind and sooth the soul. Kick back, relax, press play and let the track do all the work. There was no preview posted to his other track, but trust me you want it. It is his Firedance VIP remix given away free through Screwloose records. You can preview the track and download by clicking the link provided below.
I would expect this to be the last place this next artisted would be posted in, but Oscillator Z decides to tone down the filth on this next blissful track entitled Beep Boops. I’m in love with the middle melody; great vibes.
Dubstep, Electro-House, House | Kaskade & Skrillex — Lick It [Remixes] and Music Video
Posted by Sev on April 17, 2012
I was pretty excited yesterday when Kaskade announced the release of the Lick It remixes. I was always a fan of the original despite the way others felt about it, and after hearing Datsik’s remix a few months ago I couldn’t wait for it. Although I was disappointed about his album, this remix is a must have for me with his signature synths and wobbles smashing stages for the past 3 months. Also featured are Norman Doray and Alex Kenji both giving nice progressive adaptations. Alex Kenji’s remix provides a nice upbeat House tempo with some sick progressions and basslines. His remix might even take it for me over the original. You can grab these remixes on Beatport provided in the link below.

Albums | Cello Kid – Soulstice + Waves
Posted by J_Salzer on April 6, 2012
One of the first artist I ever posted during my original blogging days(I won’t give you the link, it’s too embarrassing), Cello Kid, recently got back in to touch with me and I couldn’t be more amazed of the work he’s been doing since our loss of touch. He sent over his “Mini-mixtape” filled with hard hitting songs of about 1:30-2:30 minutes long. I’ve included my favorite two, but check out the whole thing here.
Dubstep, Hip-Hop | Gramatik ft. Jay Fresh- Solidified
Posted by A on April 3, 2012
Dallas’s lone hip-hop prodigy, Jay Fresh, is back at it again. This time, he’s teamed up with Pretty Lights artist Grammatik to bring the undeniable heat. Inspired by a recent green room jam session, “Solidified” is a product of the incontrovertible chemistry between both of the artists.
Not to be outdone, Gramatik recently dropped a brand new six song EP entitled “#digitalfreedom” through Pretty Lights Music. Predicated on the idea that thoughts, freedom of speech, and online creativity can’t be suppressed, the project is undoubtedly a testament to that creed. As a bonus, I’ve included a download link to the entire project. All hail #digitalfreedom!

Dubstep | Plan B — ill Manors (Funtcase Remix)
Posted by Sev on March 25, 2012
I posted about this track about a month ago and finally it has been released. There really isn’t much to say about this track that can’t be taken from listening to it, besides that this has to be one of the nastiest tracks from Funtcase we have seen in a while. This remix by Funtcase and all of the filth that comes with it can be purchased off itunes at the link provided below.

Hip-Hop | Nas – The Don
Posted by J_Salzer on March 18, 2012
Nasty “Escobar Nastradamus” Nas is back, offering up his highly anticipated single showing us why he’s still one of hip-hop’s biggest heavyweights. Sampling elements from his famed “Illmatic” album, Nas paints a picture with words, delivering a deeply cerebral masterpiece worthy of even Michael Corleone’s approval. Stream the track below. It’s truly an offer you can’t refuse.
