Delicious Dubstep

We have some truly delicious dubstep for you today. Big shout out to the Hush House blog for a few of these tunes, check out their sick blog on our blogroll.

First we’ve got a naughty DZ bootleg remix of Chase & Status’s classic ‘Eastern Jam’, I say naughty because C&S’s record label have been coming down hard on people remixing it, bastards! It stays true to the original but adds some DZiness to it with machine gun bassy goodness.

CHASE & STATUS – EASTERN JAM (DZ’S BOOTLEGGIN’ IT REMIX)

Now Skream’s new track aptly named ‘Trapped In A Dark Bubble’. Its not your usual bass orientated dubstep blaster, its more of a journey in a dark bubble to a dubstep beat, with a muddy/bleepy bass pattern repeating throughout the track and electronic string sounds progressing as the journey continues. Bootiful!

SKREAM – TRAPPED IN A DARK BUBBLE

Next a Starkey remix of ruuuude Wiley. Lots of lovely noises in the track ranging from dirty bass to hip-hoppy string tunes. ESKI BOI!

WILEY – MY MISTAKES (STARKEY REMIX)

Now new kid Cheebs who we should definately be keeping one eye on with sounds that’ll tear your cerebellum! A nice tune putting a deliciously warped synth to work!

the wizards.bestoftherestPLAYLIST.2008

this has been a really wild year. really incredible. i mean really, i have had so much fun. shit IT HAS BEEN UNBELIEVABLE! and i’ve done so much! i’ve seen europe, well some of it.. barcelona, antwerp.. benicassim! literally the best summer in time, and in terms of music what a year. electro – well we have our own playlist for that so i think it speaks for itself.. BUT the rest of it! brilliant. 

so many small acts coming big- i mean blogging – it has just been huge – the reality of internet hype – making somebody big in minutes.wowzer

so here it starts// i’ve tried to keep it down but i think you’ll agree a year is a very long time-  - – and sorry i have missed out SO much but i’ve had to be selective. and in terms of massive labels/massive artists of course – they dont need posting - kings of leon, HOT CHIP, vampire weekend, BENGA, fleet foxes, lykke li, JUSTICE, cut copy, MG-BLOODY-MT….holy mazoly.
