Dubstep | Torqux & Twist, Flyte One, and RHYNO

The dynamic duo of dubstep dropped this heater no more than a week ago. The drop is ridiculous, but this track doesn’t top the Sunlight remix of theirs that I’m dying for them to release August 15th.

I honestly have never heard of Flyte One before, but I really like the productions he has. The first one is a Paper Planes remix that was just released. It doesn’t seem like dubstep to be honest, but once you listen to the track that wont really matter. The second track is an insane remix of Louder, if anyone can hook me up with an untagged version hit me up in the comments!

This last track is another one of those artists that I know nothing about except that they have good music. RHYNO from what I have heard has this awesome Pretty Lights styled vibe going, how could one go wrong there.

Dubstep | Zomboy, Gramatik, and Fytch & Captain Crunch
Posted by Mach on August 9, 2011
People keep comparing Zomboy to Skrillex, which I can not argue against. Zomboy uses the ‘Skrillex Style Synths’ in his own creative way. Most of his tracks make me think of zombies not Skrillex (not because of his name, listen and you will understand). With that said, Zomboy might be one of the biggest small producers out in dubstep. Watch out, he is going to wreak the competition in the future.

Gramatik might be one of the best things to happen to the Pretty Light Music Label, besides Pretty Lights. Having only been signed a few months ago and already dropping a huge mixtape, the up and coming genius doesn’t disappoint Pretty Lights’ fans with tracks like this one.

This last track took me a little more effort then necessary to find. I heard a preview a while back and fell in love instantly. The vocals are beautiful, and the drop is what you would come to expect in the last track of my dubstep posts.
Dubstep | Vera Lynn – “We’ll Meet Again” (Elliot Mars Remix)
Posted by Mach on July 20, 2011
Usually when I see a new track from Elliot Mars I expect an intensely heavy track. This remix caught me by complete surprise. Not only is it a lighter dubstep track, but I swear he is trying to be like Pretty Lights with this. I’m not saying Elliot Mars is a Pretty Lights wanna-be, but damn this track is sweet.

These two tracks aren’t fresh, but definitely deserve posting. The first track is a find courtesy of No, wait for the insane drop. The second track I was shocked to see was never posted, it is a must have.

Dubstep | John Denver – Country Roads (Pretty Lights Remix) | Dubstep
Posted by Mach on July 18, 2011
This track is not officially dropped, but it is confirmed seeing as Pretty Lights created it specifically for the All Good Music Festival that took place in West Virginia. Leave it to Pretty Lights to be the only electronic musician who can’t kill John Denver. This track is a little softer than most dubstep, but it’s Pretty Lights at his best so who cares.
Dubstep | Pretty Lights and NTK | Dubstep
Posted by Mach on June 17, 2011
Pretty Lights is just getting deeper in the dubstep. This is one of his heaviest tracks I’ve heard. Which to some might seem bad, but this is awesome. I wish I went to Bonnaroo this year.

Don’t worry I see you in the chatbox, and yes this dubstep/mashup was worth posting. Keep up the good work. This is the second time I have heard Eminem mashed with dubstep and he turns out to be one of the best rappers you can put on a bassline. Check out NTK on his SOUNDCLOUD for some more sick dubstep/mashups.

Dubstep | Pretty Lights, Jacob Plant, & Document One | Dubstep
Posted by Mach on June 8, 2011
I found it interesting that Pretty Lights has (finally) claimed one of his songs to be dubstep. This is technically a mashup, but he added in his twist on beats that we have all come to expect and love. Nice, chill change of pace from other dubstep. Pretty Lights should be in everyones music library.

Jacob Plant is the 19 year old prodigy who releases banger after banger. He seems to have found his signature dubstep bassline. This is a lower quality track considering it’s not out yet, but you can hardly tell and still enjoy how awesome his producing is.

This is one of those famous, but not really artists. I heard the duo for the first time a few months ago and was impressed, except the tracks were very short. Glad to see they stepped it up… a lot. The intro to the track is a little long, but the insane drop is worth the wait.
