What's good GRA gang? Welcome back to our synodically recurring mix series, 'Styles'! For our eighth episode, we have an absolutely jam packed 32 minute Deep Dub mix from our very own Mr. Scissors featuring an astounding 29 tracks. Get ready to strap in for another heater of a mix as we explore the depth of variety and style within the 140 realm. 

"Deep dub, often simply referred to as dubstep initially, traces its roots to the vibrant music scene of Kingston, Jamaica in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It emerged from reggae as a distinctive style of remixing and manipulating existing recordings. It is typically characterized by its slower tempo, emphasis on sub bass and atmospheric soundscapes, and often darker, more brooding atmosphere. With it's emergence from the early dubstep scene, it is known for its minimalist approach, hypnotic beats, and spacious feel. At its inception, Burial emerged as a key figure, crafting atmospheric soundscapes that define deep dubstep. His ability to evoke emotions through ethereal melodies and haunting vocal samples set a high standard for the genre. Labels like Hyperdub became synonymous with this subgenre, curating a catalog of music that explores the depths of sonic possibility. In the modern landscape of deep dubstep, artists like Kaiju and labels like Deep Dark & Dangerous continue to expand the genre's horizons. Their productions delve into uncharted territories, exploring the darkest corners of bass music while maintaining a sense of elegance and restraint. Alongside them, artists like Sleeper and labels like Chestplate contribute to the ongoing evolution of deep dubstep, ensuring its enduring appeal among dedicated listeners."

A collection of forward thinking tracks that I've been sitting on for quite some time. Some a few years, some more recent. I've been feeling music in a different space and very excited to test some of these out in the future. Thank you to all my friends and family who believe in my project. Thank you to Seity for always keeping my art dripped up and to sh1elds for the new facelift on the ole logo :)

Refract - Summer's End ID Mix

Music has been my way of coping with social anxiety for as long as I can remember. I realized early on that I could drive a conversation by asking what someone listened to. No matter what their answer was, I could find enough common ground to break the ice and fuel a conversation. 

When I started making music, I think it was a continuation of the same thing. In high school, I would spend my weekends alone in a dark room learning what an oscillator is or what compression does - unless I was at my drummer's house writing rock music with my band. 

Music was there for me when I felt most alone, and it's also been there when I've felt most fulfilled. Through the highs and the lows I've felt an ever-present and unbreakable pull to music - something deeper than passion, closer to love... an Eternal Affinity

The colorful heart of William Young, QwillA delves into a psychedelic landscape of dream-hop, psydub, drum & bass and glitchy, squiggly music. QwillA's auditory vibrations are emotional expressions of his experiences in a beautiful, synchronistic world.
It's music for magic.  
It's quantum dancefloor mechanics 
 through radical self-expression.  
And like life, it's amazingly weird.
BIG LOVE
