Drum & Bass, Dubstep | XYZ: Bassnectar Album Preview, Dirtyloud Preview, and New Tracks From Schoolboy, Skope, & More!

Posted by on March 23, 2012

Created for the sole purpose of having so much great music released in a day, XYZ is a post you will almost never see. When you do see it, it means that you are going to want to listen to everything on it. Starting out is the preview for Bassnectar’s upcoming album, ‘VAVA VOOM.’ The track list in order is, Vava Voom (ft. Lupe Fiasco), Empathy, Ugly (ft. Amp Live), Ping Pong, What (ft. Jansten), Pennywise Tribute, Do It Like This (ft. ill.Gates), Laughter Crescendo [2012 Version], Butterfly (ft. Mimi Page), Nothing Has Been Broken (ft. Tina Malia), and Chronological Outtakes. From what I can see, this album will be just as epic as all of Bassnectar’s past albums. ‘VAVA VOOM’ drops April 10th.

This next preview is from those crazy Brazilians, Dirtyloud. This remix is some hot psy-trance/dubstep filth. Sharam himself is pushing this remix hard, and there is no doubt to why. The intro of this remix is ridiculous, the drop will catch you off guard. This remix will be on Sharam’s remixes compilation of ‘Our Love,’ releasing March 27th.

Previews are great and all, but what about the free stuff, those insane tracks you can have right now. Well lucky for us Schoolboy is kicking off the free tracks of XYZ with this incredible remix of Jay-Z & Kanye West’s ‘Why I Love You So.’ Schoolboy has been getting a lot of hype recently, Knife Party has even played his remix of ‘Antidote’ in one of their live sets.

Next freebie takes it down a notch with some lovestep. Antics Records is calling this Skope’s feel good track for the summer. It is always interesting when an artist gives away an original. Most of the time the track will be terrible, but on rare occasions such as this, we have just been given a gem. Show Skope some love on Facebook, this talented guy hasn’t even broken 50 likes yet.

This one is a beast collaboration from Jacob Plant & Majestic. Another awesome original we don’t have to pay for? Couldn’t get better than that. The vocals on this track are sick, but then again they would be nothing without the epic beat they cover.

Oh. My. God…First featured on Kap Slap’s Spring Break Mix (posted below), Breakin’ The Doors is probably Kap Slap’s heaviest mashup yet, delivering harder than ever.

Riots, Manufactured Superstars, Steve Aoki, Passion Pit, and too many more…the kid is on fire right now. Check out Kap Slap on Facebook and SoundCloud.

Dubstep | Fixers – Iron Deer Dream (Delta Heavy Remix)

Posted by on March 15, 2012

Delta Heavy just dropped a chill, happy remix that’s perfect for this awesome weather and easy on the ears. While this might seem like a bit of a departure from some of their heavier/more DnB-inflected tracks, the bassline’s definitely got some heft beneath those high, synthy leads. These guys are some of the most versatile and creative producers in the game right now and I’m loving everything they’re putting out lately, so give this one a listen and hit up the free DL.

Mixtapes | Action Bronson & Party Supplies- Blue Chips

Posted by on March 12, 2012


I don’t care who your favorite rapper is. I really don’t. Action Bronson will son him every single time. I’m blown away right now, no homo. I haven’t been this impressed with a mixtape since Drake’s “So Far Gone”. There’s not a bad song on this entire project. Not one. Unbelievable. Get your forks out, this is gourmet rap. Cue the Nick Nolte “Blue Chips” opening scene rant! You should be blogging in your jock straps.

Hip-Hop | OnCue-New Religion

Posted by on March 12, 2012

Party anthem raps are like, kind of catchy and hot right now. OnCue burst onto the scene in 2011 and he’s continuing right into 2012 with this high energy spit. The beat is, listenable nothing to write home about, but if you listen to the lyrics the kid is pretty f-ing witty. YOLO themed raps aren’t going anywhere apparently.

FYI | Help Fight Pediatric Cancer!

Posted by on February 16, 2012

I spoke with Nammo myself earlier today and he told me about this idea he had to help donate money to fight Pediatric Cancer. It does not cost you anything. For every like Nammo gets, he will donate 25 cents to the cause. I highly suggest everyone like his page. After his own fight against cancer a little over a year ago, Nammo felt he had to do something to help the cause that saved his life. Help Nammo help others and go like his page right now.

Videos | Joseph SoMo & Cody Tarpley- Drake Medley (Cover)

Posted by on February 14, 2012


Denton, Texas based talent, Joseph Somo, is back at it again with another exceptional video that covers stand out tracks from Drake’s sophomore effort “Take Care”. With the release of this new video, I’m convinced that Joseph SoMo and Cody Tarpley are the Drake and 40 of the cover game right now. Absolutely unstoppable. If SoMo keeps making covers like this, he won’t be able to go out of his own house without a flashmob of tween girls giving chase. Must be tough to be him.
