Dubstep | R Rated #56
Posted by Sev on November 21, 2012
Kicking off this weeks Thanksgiving edition of R Rated, it is only right to have an excess of tunes to add some filth to your holidays. First up we have this free tune from Pegboard Nerds, who have been tearing the scene apart lately. This track was given away as a gift for their 20k followers. These guys have yet to release a tune less than amazing so grab this free download HERE.
Next up are two previews from an artist who has been making a name for himself and is a part of the Firepower Crew. It is none other than AFK, who previewed two new heavy originals by himself, but no release dates yet. Both of these tracks are monstrous and have me excited to see what he is going to release next.
DeadExit is a new group with three members, and one of them being none other heavy hitter Crissy Criss. They released a mix about a week ago showcasing some of their new material, but yesterday they released their first free track. When Crissy Criss is involved in creating a track you know that it is going to pack a punch and have some crazy sounds. Grab the free download and keep an eye out for a EP release soon.
It has been a while since we heard any new material from Zanetic. It seems as though he has been locked in the studio creating and mixing down his latest EP which is set to release on Dec. 3rd. He was kind enough to give us this free DL from the EP that is a crazy glich hop tune. You can download the track HERE.
Vital Techniques & Mikey B just unleashed this outstanding Drumstep VIP of one of their tracks. It is everything you want and more in a VIP. This is a must have for everyone.
Drum & Bass | Drum & Bass Friday
Posted by Mach on June 15, 2012
For this weeks Drum & Bass Friday, I ended with a lot of Liquid tracks. Not that it’s a bad thing, Liquid Drum & Bass is art, very smooth, often beautiful to listen to. Starting off the post is preview of an unofficial remix of Madeon’s ‘Icarus’ by Crissy Criss. This remix sounds awesome. No word on a download release date yet, but it is well worth listening to. Crissy Criss really gave the remix his own sound.
Last track for the post you can’t download, is a clip from iM3’s upcoming album, ‘Silence Before The Storm.’ This Liquid track is incredibly smooth, with a very cool groove that fades in and out on the drop.
Continuing the Liquid of the post is a calm track from Wolftek. I absolutely love the flutes that come in and out throughout the track. If you had a rough day or just want to relax, this is the perfect track for you.
The composure of this track is gorgeous. It is very progressive, with the second drop breaking into more of a Drum & Bass beat.
Dubstep | R Rated #8
Posted by Sev on December 22, 2011
I’m happy to say I think this week consists of the filthiest tunes for a R Rated post so far. They will be great for Christmas day when you need to wake up the family bright and early. Just make sure the bass is up and the volume is turned up high.
This first track is one of Crissy Criss’s bass filled bangers off of his new EP. Definite must have for dubstep fans. I can’t get enough of that modern talking “Yo” sound.
DOWNLOAD: Crissy Criss – Need Me
As if Destroy Them With Lazers wasn’t already filthy enough. This edit takes this track to a whole other level of nasty.
DOWNLOAD: Knife Party – Destroy Them With Lazers (JAY WALKERS SHANKDUP EDIT)
The intro to this track is too good; not to mention the heavy drop. This track has a futuristic vibe to it and it is very appealing.
DOWNLOAD: Devin Martin – Spoon Party (Paradigm Remix)
The first time I ever heard this track was a youtube clip of Rusko dropping it during UMF Miami, and the crowd went bananas. With a VIP of this track out now I can only imagine what is going to happen to the crowd.
DOWNLOAD: Helicopter Showdown & Sluggo – The Wrestler (Helicopter Showdown VIP)
When Mach sent me this track I didn’t know what to expect when I hit play, but knowing Mach I had a feeling it wouldn’t disappoint and it didn’t.
DOWNLOAD: Notorious B.I.G. – Party and Bullshit (GETTER REMIX)
Be careful with this track, because the drop will get you. It comes out of no where and it is heavy with the bass.
DOWNLOAD: Mensah, Sukh Knight & Squarewave – Quad Bikes (Delta Heavy remix)
Since Skrillex’s EP is releasing Friday I only saw it fit that he was featured in R Rated. Most people don’t have this track because it wasn’t released, but it is the instrumental to Scatta. The sounds in the drops are a little different and it is a noticeable difference for me. This has to be one of my favorite classic Skrillex tracks.
