Dubstep, Mashups | Rusko & Rihanna?, 5 & A Dime – Rollin Joints
Posted by Middy on August 21, 2011
I saw this live and my first instinct on the singer was Rihanna, which Rusko later confirms in the video. I guess dubstep is going further into mainstream with Britney doing her thing and now Rihanna doing a song with Rusko. This song isn’t exceptional or at least from the clip that Rusko played, which was most likely changed quite a bit so that he didn’t get in a lot trouble with the label. There is no other information about this song then what he said at the show, or maybe he said something at the Mass show, but either way it is a song to look forward to. Here is the latest 5 & A Dime single he released today. It uses the instrumentals from the best remix of the year, Alesso’s Remix of Pressure, and Moguai’s Remix of Bangduck, with the acapellas from Rolling in the Deep, In My Head, and Walking On A Dream. The instrumentals work quite well flowing over each other and the vocals top it off for a back to school banger.

Electro | Nicki Minaj Ft. Rihanna – Fly (Liam Keegan Radio Edit)
Posted by BIGLIFE on August 16, 2011
Today, I set out to find a banger that reminded me of our beginning days which were filled with simple yet effective remixes to mainstream tracks. I know the word “banger” gets a bad wrap around here since it’s cheesy but you know what, BIGLIFE isn’t afraid to walk near that line because, at the end of the day, that one adjective says it all. This folks, is something you can dance to. Per his usual fashion, Liam Keegan hooked up this mainstream track with a powerful bass-line topped off by catchy synths and even an Avicii-like build up that carries on throughout the song (which is a new tactic for this budding producer). As a bonus I’ve also included his dope remix to Britney Spears’ “I Wanna Go” – it might not be as powerful, but its still worth a listen.

Go ahead and rip on me in the comments section for being a sally, this right here is a BIGLIFE MUST DOWNLOAD BANGER!

Dubstep, Hip-Hop | Mike Posner ft Rusko – Shut UP
Posted by Juicebox on July 20, 2011
I wanted to crash my car when I saw a Mike Posner & Rusko collaboration come up on Twitter, but after giving it a listen, there’s no denying it’s a sick track. Rusko brings his classic vibe with pretty much identical vocal effects featured in Da Cali Anthem. Posner’s voice is a perfect match for this beat and his lyrics give the song that mainstream appeal that will still entice those high school girls Posner loves and relies on so much. Bottom line…Rusko sold out with this one.

Dubstep | Kerli – Army Of Love (Centron Remix) | Dubstep
Posted by BIGLIFE on June 27, 2011
Here’s a “medium-core” dubstep gem that features an enjoyable balance between the dope original vocals and the whomps most of us have grown to love. I still can’t stand super heavy dubstep so as of right now, nothing I post will make your ears bleed.

The more I listen, the more I love…

And since I love the original version of this song so much I decided to hunt around for an unconventional remix. It might take a few listens to get acclimated to this sound but if you’ve got an affinity for both mainstream hip-hop and dubstep this could be a worthwhile download. Give it an ear at the very least. PS Lil Wayne haters go listen to his verse in “Motivation” (linked). I’m siding with some of our fans on this one, Wayne’s talents haven’t been exhausted quite yet… (PPS. FML Mach already posted this one like 22 days ago…)

Okay so maybe these are a little heavier than what you’re used to from BIGLIFE… I really hope I’m not turning over to the darkside.
