London Nebel - Full Contact EP



After searching tirelessly this morning for some new music to write about, I finally stumbled upon this heavy, 5 track EP released by London Nebel on Bassclash Records. The German dubstep duo just released a free EP hardly a month ago and has another EP set to release on May 26th with Sin City Recordings succeeded by Follow the Groves EP on I.Am.Audio (no release date yet). Currently ranked at number 8 on the Beatport's Dubstep releases, the Full Contact EP is filled with deep, wonky tunes that will surely make you bounce and skank out. This is going to be an exciting year for London Nebel so I would give them a like on FB and a follow on SC- great treats in store for our hungry ears!

Dark Elixer's last release ever (as Dark Elixer) - Machines



A few weeks ago our friend Dark Elixer made quite an emotional post on his fan page stating that after his next two EP's- Simple Chaos on Firepower and now Machines on Underslung Audio- he will be respectfully retiring his dubstep career. Of course saddened by this news but excited to hear his final release, I now present to you his two track Machines EP- including 'Machines' and 'Fractured'. This deep release accompanied with heavy basslines and clean synths leaves you feeling quite satisfied with his exit but by no means does this conclude that he will not be missed! The dubstep community has lost another good one...best of luck to him and his future endeavors.

Unfortunately, Dark Elixer has deleted his Facebook fan page, but here is his soundcloud.

The Widdler - OGO



The Widdler, a Tel Aviv native who now resides in Austin, Texas, has recently released his newest album "OGO", featuring 6 tracks ranging from deep minimal dubstep, to "spooky" and "almost bubbly" beats. His melodic and tribal sounds are challenging the paradigm in the dubstep community by avoiding stereotypical "dubstep drops". His smooth crescendos leave you in almost a trance like state "feeling cleansed". A few tunes from this album have also been featured on DAD (Do Androids Dance) as well as The Dankles. As of today, his album sits at #5 on Beatport's Dubstep releases. Congrats to him! Check out his bandcamp and get the entire album here. On a side note, I'm really stoked to see him at Infrasound Music Festival in a few weeks! :D

Stinkahbell's Free Album Has Inspired Me To Return To Blogging



No matter how you may know him, Stinkahbell, Nutty P, or just Anton Flanders, there's no denying that this man lays down the freshest synths and melodies in this FREE 15 track album. Aside from the beautiful production, the soulful vocals and [mostly] down tempo vibes make this album an easy listen to all music fans of any genre; however, is a huge success for the dubstep community.

My personal favorites are Neon City and Seduction Game [feat. Jordan King], although I honestly can't help but get so into the album as a whole- its been on repeat since he uploaded it to Soundcloud yesterday. And apparently I'm not the only one who thinks as much- he reached his max downloads yesterday and had to reup a new link this morning. Big ups to him for inspiring me to return to Back to the BASSics and for producing and giving out a beautiful collection of art! Download the album and give the man some support- share the love!

I have returned from Holy Ship!!! And have a vid of Dillon Francis's laptop freak out.

Wow. So, what a party, eh? I have tons of pictures, so check out my instagram. As far as stories go, I happened to get a pretty badass video of Dillon Francis freaking out because Diplo's twerker spilled her vodka all over his macbook and ruined it in the middle of his set. Check it!



Flosstradamus ended up mixing until Skream and Zed's Dead took over and finished up. Dillon DID play his set on the beach the next day on Floss's laptop and also apologized to LaFayette (Diplo's dancer) for calling her out on stage like that. He was just salty because he didn't get to debut his new tracks...which, I would be too. Also, for anyone saying he should've had back up or calling him a bitchass, just keep in mind that if you have never been on Holy Ship, then you have no idea what a party is. Holy Ship is unlike anything you've ever been to in your life...its anything BUT 'normal circumstances'.

Also, Skrillex went b2b with EVERYONE and played a two hour set on the beach because Pharrell was 3 hours late to his set. Fuck yeah, Skrillex is the man. <3

Oh, and the *special guest* was Tiesto. Not impressed.
