Apr 29: Rusko @ Edmonton Event Centre

The bad boy of Dubstep is coming to Edmonton this Sunday. This is gonna be a great party if Rusko brings his A game. If I can make the comparison here, for all you old schoolers, Rusko is like the Carl Cox of Dubstep.

Apr 25: Nero @ Starlite Room

18+ in the Starlite Room on Apr 25, 2011 at 8:00pm

Ticket info $20 at Foosh, Blackbyrd, Brixx and Primeboxoffice.com

If you’re holding out for one party/event this month….this is the one. Nero is Dubstep, but you don’t have to be a hardcore fan of the genre to dig this sound. So if you’re new to the Dubstep sound, or you want to introduce people to it, this is where you should be. Nobody understands Dubstep until you hear it at a party (just like DnB and Electro).

Those who know the sound of the wobble….know Nero. I don’t have to explain it at all. One of the best Dubstep producer/Djs I’ve ever heard.

Sorry to bring this one to you late. I’ve been looking for a job…and with money being a problem, I’ve been distracted.

Anyway, I really dig High Rankin. If you can attend this party - it may be worth it. I really love the dark, yet melodic wobble coming from High Rankin. Although he’s a better remixer than producer, like many dubstep producers, High Ranking has a distinct style.  Give his tracks a listen….and if you like it…and have the time and money to go out…go.

We love Zeds Dead….a lot!!!! The Toronto act is everything we dig about New School/Progressive Dubstep sound. Zeds Dead is to Dubstep what DJ Icey was to Funky Breaks. Their sound can be hard, melodic, crunked, hyphy-like, soulful, and everythimg in between. A real Banger of an act. Zeds Dead is on our current top ten.

Plastician, also in our top ten, just drops the most soulfully heavy Dubstep. The UK native works amazing wobble and melody creations. Really, this might just be the deepest type of Dubstep being produced today….and no…not the cheesy type of deep.

****a big than you to Kristen for sending us the info for this party….EB loves you ;)

Ahh Skrillex! Now that’s some hardcore beat bashing. Very much Dubstep in execution, but you’ll find Skrillex using four-to-the-floor beats constantly. So basically you’ll find a real Dubstep feel to the music, even though it might be better characterized as some sort of Hard House.  

I’m still a fan, even though I prefer breakbeats. Straight beats make it hard to dance because they are way tooo intense….especially when at high BPM. Dancing to straight 4/4 beats, at 130-145 BPM, for long periods of time might give me an infarction….now that I’m 30 :).

Mixing that old school ragga sound (the roots of Dub) Subswara is back again @ Starlite Room. When I really miss the pure dub of Lee Scratch Perry, I’m happy to know Subswara is carrying that proverbial torch on. Sine!!

I really dig Subvert….I mean a lot! All of Subvert’s tracks are hard-ass dubstep. Some really heavy stuff. Check out the remix of Cranberries “Zombie”….off the MF hook! 

Excision is like a whole other level of dirty bass heavy dubstep. You’ll have your angry/intense faces on for this….ARgghg!

Not to be missed…and fully Edmonton Bangers approved!

The whole Opium for the Masses crew went out to the Future Sound of Breaks V3 party in Miami @ IO in 2004. We went with an open mind. This was a World Music Conference (WMC) after party showcasing where breakbeats (as a genre) might be headed. Florida is breakbeat central from Miami to Orlando….so of course this party was massive. 

On the lineup were: DJ Icey, Simply Jeff, Jackal and Hyde, DJ Craze, Madame Mercury, Jen Lasher, Reid Speed, Donald Glaude (doing a breaks only set) and Freq Nasty.

The whole party centered around Freq Nasty!! His set was slammin!! There were several stages set-up throughout the night, but somehow everyone managed to vacate all but the main one for Freq Nasty’s set. Madame Mercury had a set to start on another stage during Freq Nasty’s set, but we danced together to those thundering beats until FN was done. 

Freq Nasty is so impressive that other big name DJs come to watch him. In Madame Mercury’s case, it meant hearing his set first, then worrying about her own. I was floored. It was a great party.

I went to see Drop the Lime at the Pawn Shop almost a year ago today (here in Edmonton). It was a really sick show!! Unfortunately, there was a certain “trance party” the same day….
…..can you guess which one party ended up with a high attendance? 
This year you’ll get the chance to see Drop the Lime….one more time. He is a true banger DJ, playing harder edged stuff. Mostly bass-heavy beats from Major Lazer to Jakwob to AC Slater, etc.
