Dubstep, Mixtapes | Bassnectar – Freestyle Mixtape & News On Upcoming EP

Posted by on October 3, 2012

Bassnectar is and always will be the King of Dubstep, no one can seem to follow his style, he is literally an unstoppable force. This new mixtape of his is full of and based off of his unreleased and upcoming EP, “Freestyle,” dropping October 16th. Only days away!!! F^@K, Bassnectar owns this mixtape, he even has some Trap on here, which I hate. Bassnectar shows how Trap is to be done, it’s not Moombahton! For Gods sake, all Trap is, is just bad Moombahton, Trap is part of Purple Bass music, look it up and take notes. He isn’t the King just because he is famous, Bassnectar is the King of Bass because he knows exactly what he is doing and he constantly proves that.

I can’t begin to talk about every single track on here so I will keep it simple until his new EPs release. I will just mentions my favorites because they are clearly the most amazing tracks in this mixtape…in my opinion of course. I will even do the favor of mentioning the time periods to which they reside on this mix. First track on the mix I liked is “Freestyle” (1:46-4:00), it is in fact Dubstep but contains a bit of the Trap I was talking about. Second, “Jigga Up (Bassnectar Remix),” (11:11-15:07), its long, isn’t that great? Who doesn’t love those rasta vibes, hell knows I love them. Third, “Manhattan Bound (Bassnectar Remix),” (15:08-16:43), let me just start by saying I love Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack, their style should be used and remixed more, it is something you just don’t see enough these days. Fourth, “Bassnectar & DC Breaks – Breathless feat. Mimi Page,” (23:45-26:18), this may be one to add to Bassnectar’s greatest, DC Breaks have had a hand in greats of his before and this just further proves their incredible chemistry. Last, “Ed Solo – Egyptian Horns (Bassnectar Remix),” (32:49-34:40, not including vocal samples), this remix may never release. Bassnectar is known for his countless unreleased remixes, this remix being one that is one of the most sick to never be obtained by any of us.

Long, though my write up is, this mixtape is well worth the listen. If you dont feel like reading at least consider the time periods I posted about to the mixtape, they should be listened to even if you don’t finish the mix.

Dubstep | Ian van Dahl – Castles In The Sky (The Frim Remix)

Posted by on March 4, 2012

Big ups to Gabe for sending me this track because I was completely caught off guard when I saw the title. We all listened to this track back in the day, but now we can come out of secrecy when we do. While the original vocals are still intact, the drop will blow you away so be warned. The Frim is a producer who has been flying under the radar, but has had his tracks noticed and played by some of the big names today. Bassnectar used to drop one of his well known remixes, Minnesota- Bass Power(The Frim remix), about a year back that you can see HERE near the end of the video. Thats saying something, and not too long ago Skream and Benga said one of their favorite tracks at the time was an original by The Frim entitled High Technology Dub 6.

Dubstep | Noir and ill.Gates

Posted by on September 22, 2011

This was originally going to be just an ill.Gates post, but sometimes remixes like this happen. It is fate that this track be remixed by Noir, because he did a superb job. Robyn is one of the hottest voices to remix, and she sounds great on what work Noir did.

DOWNLOAD: Christian Falk Ft. Robyn – Dream On (Noir Remix)

ill.Gates is another legend of dubstep, the guy sometimes produces in the middle of the forrest. That is no exaggeration, he takes trips to New Zealand and sets up shop in the middle of the forrest. Bassnectar and he are actually tight, which is why they both provided freebees for us. The first track being the original off of ill.Gates new album, “The ill.Methodology,” which you can preview here. Second track is the remix from Bassnectar which was teased on his Colorstorm Mixtape.

DO SOMETHING

Albums, Dubstep, Electro, Mainstream Remix | Bassnectar – Divergent Spectrum LP and “Above & Beyond” Promo!

Posted by on August 2, 2011

The Day has finally arrived, Divergent Spectrum is here. Bassnectar really out did himself with this. Every track gives you a different taste of the music spectrum, but with some bass mixed in of course. I made sure to have listened to the entire LP before this post and the one word I’d use to sum this up is ‘art.’ By that I mean this album really is a work of art, just by the fact that Bassnectar managed to incorporate many different styles of music flawlessly. My top choices would be Plugged In Remix, Lights Remix (naturally), The Matrix, Voodoo, and Paging Stereophonic. Despite my choices it is really hard to not include the rest of the album on that list. If you like electronic music, you will love this.

Pick up the new album now on iTunes or at www.bassnectar.net

The Bassnectar family also gave us the fans a gift, a free download of “Above & Beyond.” Previously known as Shakes and releasing under SPL’s Hollow Point Label, Seth Drake is the latest addition to the Amorphous Music Team. The track is epic and definitely one of the better tracks on the album.

Dubstep, Events, Videos | Camp Bisco Recap and Dubstep

Posted by on July 11, 2011


Previously Posted: Nero – Book Of Harmony

I went to Camp Bisco this past weekend, it was awesome to say the least. 15,000 people went last year, 30,000 this year. Video above was Nero’s epic opening. Excuse my amature camera skills, I was having fun.

Before I give my run down on some of the shows, here are a few tracks for your enjoyment. Let’s face it, you didn’t come here to read haha.

DOWNLOAD: The Temptations – Ain’t too Proud to Beg (Dieth a la Mode Remix) – CHILL

DOWNLOAD: Pete Miles – Be Gentle With Me – Heavy

For most of the shows I tried to get as close as possible. Skrillex on the first night was insane, the tent was packed in minutes. He ended up starting his set with 2 new tracks and later on played another new track. Cstan saw him the next night and had the same thing happen. Bassnectar was over the top, banger after banger. You knew he was going to kill it once his set hit its first drop. Out of the less famous artists, Savoy did great. Especially when they played “I’m In Need,” it even turned out to be a different sounding version. I am hoping that means it’s finalized now so we can have it.

Out of all the shows I went to, Udachi really stood out with his Electro/Dubstep style. I was at the front rail with maybe 40 people behind me, he walked on stage looking like thats what he expected for a turnout. After his third track the tent was packed with a few thousand people going nuts. He even took a minute to tell the crowd that it was the most amazing thing to see that many people loving his music. Overall Camp Bisco was rediculous, if you weren’t there this year you have to go next year.

Dubstep | Bare Noize, Bassnectar, Gemini, Chase & Status | DUBSTEP

Posted by on February 19, 2011

For those of you who crave Ellie Goulding remixes, this Bare Noize track will blow you away. The duo’s full blown assault on Tinie Tempah & Elli Goulding’s “Wonderman” has transformed this already-chart-topping track into an absolute banger.

DOWNLOAD: Tinie Tempah ft. Ellie Goulding – Wonderman (Bare Noize Remix) – MUST DOWNLOAD!

I’m a huge fan of Chase & Status. Their tracks’ interesting vocals consistently fuel my desire for more. Make sure to check out Trolley Snatcha’s remix of Chase & Status’s “Blind Faith,” below (this one hits hard).

DOWNLOAD: Chase & Status – Blind Faith (Trolley Snatcha Remix)

DOWNLOAD: Chase & Status – Fire In Your Eyes

Gemini never ceases to impress me. Warning: the vocals in “Rise and Fall” will seem to grow in your brain like a tumor.

DOWNLOAD: Gemini – Rise & Fall

In light of Egypt’s recent turmoil, Bassnectar released his “Walk like an Egyptian” track. Although Bassnectar produced the track in 2003, he didn’t release it until now. This one’s a lot chiller than most of his other stuff. More of a drum and bass feel.
