I like that.

a wise man once said, “only punters wear glowsticks”

The District Sleeps Alone by The Postal Service is a long time favourite of mine. It takes me back a few years, is a great calm track and always had the potential for great remix. I came across this Dubstep mix of it today, and while not a huge Dub fan, was impressed with its [...]

crankworxxx = mess

I’ve been failing at the whole posting thing as usual… SORRY! Here are a few tracks at the top of my iTunes recently added that I’ve been feeling lately… Messy night at CRANKWORX, this is a piece of our soundtrack!

Nero in Vancouver: Tomorrow at Venue!

So Nero is playing a show tomorrow, sunday night, at Venue. Together with LA Riots I’m positive this is going to be an amazing show. Everyone should know who Nero is, but I’ve posted some of my favorite tracks up to get in the mood for the show! Tickets are still available HERE and they’re [...]

Gary the dog does Calgary

I’ve failed miserably at posting lately because I went to the Calgary Stampede this past weekend. Gary was a good friend while we were in Calgary, but got left on the side of the road somewhere in the rocky mountains after taking up WAY too much room in the car. Up side to this is [...]

Meow Meow

My Interwebs are seriously slow so I can’t upload shit. At least I can still link! Just posting a video link, because the song is awesome and the video is hilarious. It’s Meow Meow by High Rankin.

Impaired Boating is Impaired Driving #FTW

I figured that it’s been about a week since I did a post, so my iTunes is nice and full of new tracks for y’all.

Ajapai

Dubstep is pretty big globally right now, but I hadn’t heard much coming out of Asia until I found Ajapai from Tokyo, Japan! His Mobilized EP just dropped a couple days ago on Beatport and it’s pretty dope, I’d recommend any Dubstep fans to check it out. Interesting tracks for sure, this guys got some [...]

Slum Dogz

So I listen to a lot of new artists daily, but group that’s really piqued my curiosity lately has been Slum Dogz, a rather new collaboration between DJ Swan-E, Krafty MC and the increasingly popular Doctor P. While they started out making DnB there’s quite a few tracks right now just waiting to be released. [...]

The Upbeats, sick DnB from NZ

So this isn’t all that new but it’s new to me! A friend of mine just introduced me to The Upbeats, which are a duo from New Zealand making some awesome DnB and now progressing into Dubstep. Posted below are a few tracks from their recent album Big Skeleton, released in November on Non-Vogue records. [...]

Happy Birthday Canada!!!

Canada greatest country in the world all other countries are run by little girls Canada number one exporter of potassium other countries have inferior potassium … ENJOY THIS VERY RANDOM MIX OF TRACKS

Emalkay in Vancouver July 11th @ Celebrities

UK Dubstep producer EMALKAY is coming to play a show here in Vancouver on Sunday July 11th. Gonna be a sick show, Celebrities has a terrific sound system for dubstep. I’m sure everyone has heard his track When I Look at You by now, but I’ve put it up with a few more tracks below [...]

Chillin Sunday…

It’s been a slow Sunday… Listening to some random tracks that don’t make me want to start partying again. A couple of these have been around for a while, I know, and do not care. KayThx <3

Horse Force

Now usually I don’t like to make a post directly in response to something I saw blogged, but I was checking Squitty Bubbler this morning and found Horse Force. After laughing my ass off at his MySpace description and being slightly disturbed by his awesome images, I listened to his newest Dubstep track and was [...]

Borgore in Vancouver! Thursday June 24th, at Shine

Israeli producer Borgore is playing a show in downtown Vancouver tomorrow at Shine nightclub! Not a usual venue for me, but for this show it’s gonna be dope. Borgore has essentially made up his own style, referred to as Gorestep. It’s like Dubstep, but so incredibly filthy due to his heavy metal influence (he’s also [...]

DJ Rob Paul – Tyler Durden

North Vancouver’s own DJ Rob Paul is back with a new track to shake up the dance floor… Ladies and Gentlemen, turn up your speakers, cause this one is a BANGER!

Afrojack in Vancouver @thecaprice @blueprintevents

Afrojack is coming to Vancouver tomorrow… Event details here Here’s a couple tracks by him, and and one by Normal Doray & David Tort that I thought was pretty good.

BDonkaDONK

Woke up this morning with a bunch of new music somehow on my iTunes…. Thanks B.G. Thought we’d share…

Back to the grind…

Well after a weekend (It was midweek, but damn it I’ll call it a weekend!) of drinking and goodtimes I’m back, back to bring you the latest and best music I can find in my daily travels of the internet. I like a lot of dubstep, but as a general rule, dubstep remixes of non [...]

I’m backkk

So we needed a little break to get a sunburn, do some waterskiing, tubing, swimming, jetski riding, etc… Not to mention drinking the WHOLE time… BUT we’re back. Here’s a few tracks to get you goin, I’ll try to do a good weekend post Saturday while nursing my hangover.

Slow it downnn

So I’m leaving for a few days (no new posts until Thursday!), and thought I’d make one last update, something different for a Saturday afternoon While they are both sorta Dubstep, they’re both veryy different. The first track, Breathe Me by Sia is an excellent chill track to listen to, even if you don’t like [...]

Dubstep around the world: Ninja Kodou

Obviously I love Dubstep (as should be fairly apparent from anyone who reads my posts) and I’ve heard so much coming out of the UK, but lately I’ve been trying to expand my horizons and find good Dubstep artists worldwide. There’s a lot of talent out there, you just gotta find it. So to start [...]

Like OMG, Baby… SKI HARD!

We’ve got a few new tracks, remixes and a summer mashup from DJ Earworm.

Boards of Canada #deadmau5 #chillin #remix

OK so I just stumbled across Boards of Canada, Deadmau5 released a remix of their “Kiteracer 2″ track less than 45 minutes ago. SICK super chill music. Boards of Canada MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/abeautifulplace

Boys Noize – Kontact Me (The Sexinvaders Remix)

The Sexinvaders are a duo from Berlin who just sent over this awesome bootleg of Boys Noize’s recent release Kontact Me. The original is pretty dope but their mix and the added synth really adds something to the track. I’d love to hear this dropped in the clubs, would sound amazing!

Inspector Dubplate – The Moustache Mixtape

So yeah, I know I said I don’t like throwing up mixtapes usually, but one so good and full of fresh tunes can’t be ignored. Inspector Dubplate brings us The Moustache Mixtape There’s some damn good exclusive and newer tracks on here, not all the same regurgitated tracks like many dubstep mixtapes out there (excellent [...]

Barbraaaaa Streisand

If you’re brave enough to click on this post after seeing that picture… props. This track came on the other night and was pretty epic at the club, thought I’d share…

Bass Injected: Sub Antix + more, June 8th

This Tuesday, June the 8th, there’s going to be a Dubstep show at The Cellar nightclub on Granville St. The show features Sub Antix, a very talented Dubstep producer from right here in Vancouver! Tickets are $10 at the door so why not go dance the night away… it is a Tuesday afterall!

The Reward is Some Satisfying Chords, etc.

These days where everyone is a DJ, you can’t just throw two songs together.. no, you need AT LEAST three. Well, take three big bangers by two huge DJs and you get the titular masterpiece by Steep. Take a listen, you’ll like it. Another insane song I found on soundcloud is Stand Up (Meth Smoke [...]

Cheshire, Mt Eden, Ninjastep, NZ Bro’s know their dubstep!

There’s a decent amount of dubstep comin out of New Zealand these days, and while it’s fairly different from the bangers coming from the UK, this shit’s pretty bomb. I’m sure everyone by now has heard of Mt. Eden with their huuuge track Sierra Leon, and if you like the chilled-out style give the rest [...]

Tech House / Techno naw mean?

Thought with my first post here I would share a few of my favourite tech house tracks at this moment. Hopefully you’ll enjoy! The picture above was taken at Club Amnesia which is on the island of Ibiza.

t-t-t-take me high, t-t-take me hiiigher.. SWEET SHOP!

I love Sweet Shop by Doctor P and many of it’s mixes, but never actually gave the original much of a listen until it was put out on the new MoS dubstep album. That said, it’s sick! Doctor P is pretty dope in general, so I’ve included a couple of his other tracks as well [...]

How To Destroy Angels – EP Released Free

This is a little different from what I usually listen to, but I’ve been following Trent Reznor’s new group for some time, and today they released a 6 song EP free to download, with the option of paying $2 for lossless format and HD video extras. The EP is certainly interesting, I’m not exactly sure [...]

Crunching.

Im not going to explain the title, just listen to the tracks and let me know what you think. Word.

DubFreaks – Freaks of Nature out now FREE

DubFreaks has released a second FREE ep titled Freaks of Nature as a follow up to the recently released ep Never Trust a DJ Who Can’t Dance It’s a little bit harder dubstep, a little dirtier than you would find on the Ministry of Sound dubstep or other big releases, so it may not be [...]

Ministry of Sound – The Sound of Dubstep

So I’m about a month late posting this, but the new Ministry of Sound dubstep album is great. Having a chance to listen to it repeatedly I’ve got to say this is going to be a big album this summer, with some huge club bangers. Lots of variety, some of it quite out there (as [...]

Boys Noizeeee recovery music findings

This past weekend was pretty fun filled, went to see Boys Noize at The Commodore on Friday, sandwiched in between visits to VENUE and followed with a trip up the stairs to Gorgamish… Hours of dancing for all. A laid back Sunday ended up turning into a search for new music, a fruitful search it [...]

Gastown, the new hood.

I’ve got myself setup in a new office in Gastown, loving the atmosphere around here and the space is sweet. You can expect more frequent updates as I’ve got a crazy internet connection that takes about 2 seconds to upload a song. Also switched hosting for the uploads over to the Amazon S3 so everything [...]

Jobatone

A local producer that goes by Jobatone sent me his EP today and I thought it has a good sound and beat so I’m putting it up here for everyone to check out. Good variety in the tracks, Circles kind of reminds me of a mau5track. MySpace – http://www.myspace.com/jobatone Let me know what you think, [...]

Classixx in Vancouver ^^ I’ll Get You!

I first heard a Classix mix of Shiny Toy Guns’ Starts With One on their Remix album… Great mix. Then I’ll Get you came on the Ministry of Sound’s The Annual 2010. Classixx is coming to Venue on May 23, 2010!!! Get your tickets online here! Here’s a couple tracks, check it out, SUNDAY FUNDAY [...]

Deadmau5 – Some Chords

A new track from Deadmau5, this is sooooo good.
