dang all my fave jams in this mix, how am I just discovering it now

As an ace selecta, conscious connoisseur and curator of Canadian bass music, Kilbourne is a man of many talents. Producing dubstep over there and mixing over here and owning a record label on top of it all is no small task, but his vision is one without rest. That vision, drive and integrity are what lit up Sub Chakra's radar, and they're what motivated us to invite him out for a mix and interview to highlight him and his contemporaries' work in the Canadian bass music scene as the first installment of our mix series in 2022.

“Playing the opening night of Bass Coast was a moment I’ll remember forever. During this set, it finally hit me that we were back and that our amazing community was stronger than ever. I played all my favourite electro, breaks, and jungle tunes and was immersed in the moment with everyone else” 

Return to The Librarian's twilight set on Thursday night of the first in-person festival since before the pandemic. If you were there, you know. If you weren't, get ready for the feels.

Players Can Feel Heartbreak Too

Putt Jattan De (Feat. Soni Pabla & Surinder Shinda)

Everyone who's punjabi knows about the classic track Putt Jattan De. It was originally sung by Surinder Shinda for the movie with the same name, back in 1982. The film & the song turned out to be a huge success and is considered iconic within the punjabi community.

It's been remade many many times by many singers. One of these singers is none other than Soni Pabla himself.

For those of you that follow me and aren't punjabi, you may not have heard of Soni Pabla. He was a singer from the early 2000's with an amazing voice. Every song he touched was gold. Unfortunately, he passed away tragically during a performance at the young age of 30.

The vocals I've used here are from an old UK track by @PanjabiHitSquad released way back in 2003. Soni sang this to a completely different beat from the original, and it was made to be a UK garage version of the original.

It took me literally forever, but I was able to chop/screw/warp the vocals to be similar to Shinda's 1980s version. I tried to do more, but I was just messing it up if I tried to process the vocals any more lol.

I also tried to keep it as folk as I could while incorpating modern elements into it. The first half is Soni Pabla only, the second half is a both Surinder Shinda and Soni Pabla singing together. 

Thank you for listening <3

Mat the Alien (Magugu Spotlight) w/ Heisty - 22/06/2025

I reallly love the freedom of these long form restaurant sets. 4 hours in a room of strangers having dinner and drinks. No dancefloor. Ideally not really any real attention. I just get to catch a vibe and roll with it. Sometimes a new group shows up and I make a change to try and meet their energy, then slide back towards where I was before.
Listening back, my favorite moments are the ones that didn't quite work. Not a trainwreck or anything bad bad, but a blend that didn't really mesh how I wanted, or an energy shift that's just not the vibe....and EVERY time I feel that, within the next 4 minutes I either get back on course or flip the mood and start a new chapter. It makes these all the more interesting to play back later.

As is typical for me, we've got some deep house, chill ukg, a touch of deep dubstep, some liquid dnb, boom bap, low fi hip hop, and whatever else came into the moment.

Enjoy

D.Mo Live at Bass Coast 2025

This is the live recording of our 6 hour set on Oct 2025 at Fortress in Vancouver, BC. We traded 3 for 3 the entire night and built the energy up from an empty room to a beautifully hot and sweaty rave and then down to a soft landing at 5am.  Thank you to all the dancers who came along for the ride. It's a rare occasion when all the elements come together perfectly and allow us all to be in the moment, spontaneous and deeply connected with the dance floor... and this was it. 

This night was very special and it gets right to the heart of why we both love djing.
