DUBSTEP II

stuff

Dubstep

Another one that's supposed to be quick'n'dirty! Although it wasn't really, this time... spent a lot of time getting the delay fx just right. But the basic edit was in place pretty fast, so it's a pass. Hell, who's gonna check anyways. You know what: I whipped this up in about 20 minutes, right :)

Everybody knows this from pop radio for ages, and it's gotten familiar the way only these played-to-death classics can. To the point where you barely register the song anymore, just the fact you recognize it. So much to my surprise, only recently I heard it on the radio and discovered this weird break towards the end where it briefly turns dubreggae as hell, headspin delays on the vocals & all. 
The moment's over all too soon, of course, giving way to more reggaelite pap. So I've built  a moody housetrack around that dub break, and applied lotsa delayed vocal snips. Since the loop is killer, there wasn't too much to add, really... I programmed the drumsynth, all the rest you hear is tweaked loops & samples from the original.

Hope you'll enjoy it.... tell me if you do and don't hesitate to spread whatever way you can.

GotSome - Bassline (Atom Pushers , 5ynk Remix)

With a musical career spanning two and a half decades, and a jaw­dropping repertoire of releases under his own moniker and Kryptic Minds under his belt, Brett Bigden aka Leon Switch can safely be said to be one of the most influential producers in the international community of underground bass music. Cue up Leon Switch's vicious mix as we catch up with this bass veteran to speak about the past, present, and future of music, time travel, and his approach to making his signature style of deep and dark, feel good music.

Leon Switch - (Lostinsound.org  DEEP DUB DOWNLOAD SERIES 015)

http://exitco.uk/m8digipreorder

The Exit Records camp have been in alias mode of late, from the self-titled ‘The Binary Collective’ album to Kid Drama’s Mikarma album; new avenues for creativity have been secured via new aliases which brings us to Module Eight.
Five like-minded beat makers; dBridge, Kid Drama, Skeptical, Loxy and Resound- all revered in their own right, who decided to form a project that unified their individual tastes, a long player that makes statement about their tastes about Drum & Bass and how it can be viewed. 
As always with Exit Records the material is future forward in its aesthetic whilst the production is detail driven but always club ready.


Module Eight- Severed [Legacy LP] *Clip*

Submissions RE-OPEN until Jan 27 2016.

A recurring collaborative project for producers. Come collab with us! 
(TL:DR D/L the pack here http://bit.ly/1l6CgJi).

Each project will feature a sample pack from a different prouder. This session we have the don Leon Switch on board with a very Deep, Dark and Dangerous flavored pack. We look up to Leon as one of the most influential producers on the underground dubstep sound.

We want producers out there to download the samples and get to work creating beats. At the end of the session, we'll compile the most interesting results into a mix. And release the dopest beats for free via Deep, Dark & Dangerous.

Here's a demo Leon Switch put together to show you this month's samples.

This is NOT a competition, it's a chance to interact and collaborate with other producers of the Deep, Dark & Dangerous persuasion. It's all about stimulating creativity, getting people involved and inspired. Because the end product is a mix, tracks don't necessarily need to be fully laid out, an intro leading to a sick drop concept could be just as powerful as a 5 minute long masterpiece. Just get in there and get your hands dirty, the more interesting and original the better!

Here's the Leon Switch sample pack, http://bit.ly/1l6CgJi it's free... you'll just need to check out via the DDD Ecwid storefront and will be emailed a private download link.

This is the starting point, to get the creativity flowing. Get to work on some beats, see where the inspiration takes you. Don't limit yourself to these samples, but submissions must contain a few of these, especially the musical elements. We want to see how you interpret the source material and add your own twist.

Submissions due by 05/12/2015. Feel free to upload your track on Soundcloud and wherever else you want. However, please send your final submission to deepdarkdanger@gmail.com for consideration in the mix.

RTA006 - Various artists - Generation Next: Vol 1 (Rebel Traxx Promo, Mixed by Crystal Catcha)

http://subsource-magazine.com/2016/03/18/mud033-ohmtrix-image-ep/

Out on Juno for one week on April 15th until the following Monday for a general release. 
Ohmtrix is known for his Dubstep and Drum and Bass, the EP caters for both of these. Self titled track Image welcomes us into a warm ambience until the skippy snares roll into play alongside battle ready mid-range synths its then that we are reminded why Ohmtrix is a sonic force to be reckoned with. Next up in the promo audio is Tearing Me Down which enters with a sinister undertone and hi-hat, the title vocal fights through the mix before the onslaught of percussion hits us. Precise rhythms focus the energy whilst metallic synths punish from all angles and the rolling beat moves the track forward to the next vocal hook.
After the first two halftime tracks we step things up in tempo to something more Drum and Bass influenced with the next two. All Alone creeps in with a lush vocal and guitar riffs, after the beat enters we continue the smooth but tough feel to this one with more guitar melodies, perfect for those late nights. Lastly on the EP we move to Myriad, a beast-infused Drum and Bass nightmare. It features resilient, saturated mid-range and sub-bass to shake just about any dance, all together the EP has a broad range of styles, Ohmtrix really provides a unique offering with his music and what a perfect fit it is for the label also.

MUD033 - Ohmtrix - Image EP (Out April 15th) (Subsource Promo)

Full review on the site - http://subsource-magazine.com/2016/03/18/sepia-ifs002-review/

The release opens with the reversed samples and mystical atmospheres which form the intro of Laid to Rest; a minimal, weighty number which encompasses Sepia’s signature sound of melodic, gloomy bass music. But it’s the second drop of this track that really makes it stand out – using innovative arrangements Sepia catches you off guard with an onslaught of powerful sub bass and head-nodding percussive patterns; the kind of switch-up that makes you fiend for a track ID when you hear it in a mix.

The B-side is Remember – deviating from his usual style, Sepia shows us he’s not afraid to switch things up once in a while and delivers us an old school, Deep Medi-esque wobbler while retaining the keen ear for melody and percussive innovation he’s made a name for himself with. Definitely one for the dance floors and a perfect juxtaposition with the relaxing nature of the A-Side.

The release concludes with the digital bonus track Separation; here he returns to the atypical Sepia sound with another chilled out cut, featuring low-passed reese like bass lines, looped ambience, and of course top quality percussive workouts.

@banana-stand-sound

It’s not often that you get a two track release featuring four established solo artists, but that’s exactly what Banana Stand Sound are offering with their latest 180gr 12” outing. As their slogan suggests, there’s always bass in the Banana Stand, and this release from OldGold, The Widdler, Helktram and Karnage is no exception.

The A side comes from none other than social media rascal and co-owner of Silent Motion Records, Oldgold, and dubstep community pillar The Widdler. When he’s not up to no good doing things like spoiling the last Star Wars movie on Facebook, Rolando, – aka OldGold – produces a raw, no holds-barred iteration of dubstep which can be heard in his collaboration with American dubstep pioneer and legendary TwitchTV streamer The Widdler.

A heavily processed sample in typical Widdler style from an episode of Star Trek attempts to prepare you for a journey into ‘another dimension’ in the intro of Imperial, but it’s difficult to be prepared for the onslaught of tribal drums, lush chords, and of course, some of that Banana Stand bass that follows. The track makes exceptional use of tension and release, and empty spaces; something to be expected from a track involving veteran The Widdler; but if you’ve been following Oldgold’s music during his rise to prominence in the last few years, you’d know it’s something he makes good use of in his own productions as well.

On the flip side we see the two Encrypted Audio signees from Japan – Helktram and Karnage – team up on ‘Rat Catcher’; an almost psychedelic, spooked out skanker with a militant rhythm and a gorgeous lead melody; reminiscent of the creepy tones of everyone’s favourite Pokémon graveyard, Lavender Town. With springy reverberations and wobbly sub basses, it’s what you’d forsee from such a powerful combination of producers, and it’s living proof that the Japanese bass music scene is alive and well – newcomer Helktram is definitely one to watch in 2016, and the more established Karnage is still going strong.

Review on the website - http://subsource-magazine.com/2016/05/13/mud034-demon-light-ft-monika-ematnarkotiks-overdose-vip/

Light starts off with energetic, crisps hi-hats and Monika Emat gives the title track vocal an angelic yet haunting feel as an underlying guitar-like lick takes us through to the drop. Effective immediately is the almost broken-CRT-television white noise crunch of a snare pushing through the mix adding to the dark aesthetic of the track, whilst a mid-frequency synth groans back amongst the sub-bass pressure. Rave-esque stabs make themselves known in the breakdown whilst Monika's tones continue to keep us warm and feeling safe until the twisted mind of Demon ensues with a brutal twist in percussion and mid-frequency groans on the second drop.

The second track on the release brings Narkotiks (Overdose VIP), the original saw a 12" white label release on the label last year as the A-side with Sex Tape ft. Beezy on the flip. The Overdose VIP pays homage to the original with an all too familiar introduction, until siren-like screams drain all resemblance away and bring us to the drop which then gives a slaughterous +1 to original definitely earning the "Overdose" title. The percussion in the track opens a window back to the hardcore and jungle rave scene of the 90s although perhaps processed into an unrecognisable brutal 140bpm rhythm, the vocal also keeps the lo-fi feel to the track which is certainly a welcome addition. Although often labeled as Dubstep, Demon keeps reminding us that we can push the boundaries of music and both tracks on this release definitely prove that.

"Tik&Borrow return with their second EP of the year, but this time it's a solo outing for the In:flux founders. With one original and one VIP of their collaboration with Luciv from 'Pavv Presents...', the boys are continuing to develop their neuro inspired bass music with an impressive roster of remix talent on show as well.

Second to None badmen Vital Techniques have gone in hard with a huge bassline twist on the original track '4th Dimension', whilst Pelikann has delved into the dark grimey part of his sound for his remix. Fiyahman takes on 'Warperz' and makes it into a bouncing bassline tune as only he knows how, which backs up the VIP by Tik&Borrow which restructures the original collaboration from it's garage vibe into a dark 4x4 affair. This EP has all your bass music needs covered, so jump in and get those cones pumping!"
