SANGERS & RA + CHEMICAL BROTHERS + DRAKE

Are you enjoying the resurgence of breaks as much as I am? Here’s the first original from SANGERS & RA, who drop bass more than your older sister drops her pants.

Sangers & Ra feat. MC SirReal – Nasty (Original Mix) [AVAILABLE NOW @ BEATPORT] by Sangers and Ra

Grab the single from beatport.

I thought I heard enough Drake to buy some champagne and spinny rims, but this tasty bootleg from Brisbane’s SANGERS & RA will let me embrace my inner wigga a little longer. Kidding of course, mostly because I’ve never been a wigga and this tune doesn’t focus on the vocals.

AC SLATER + CROOKERS + YELLE

Written by manalogue. Posted on August 19, 2010. Filed under bass, remix, wobble. Tagged , , , . No comments.

Trouble & Bass‘s AC SLATER has quickly become one of the most sought after remixers and producers with no sign of slowing down. Raised on 90′s Hip-Hop and nourished by old school rave, AC has cultivated these influences to give birth to his own style of music production. His latest is no different. He adds more bass than seemingly possible to the CROOKERS and YELLE colab.

DILLON FRANCIS + DROP THE LIME + DR HOLLYWOOD

Dillon Francis

DILLON FRANCIS‘ ode to the Pubahs has a step on the original track’s sexual euphemisms. Well actually, it strips the metaphors entirely but keeps enough of the original to make me feel a little nostalgic. It reminds me of the time I stole a 12″ white label of “Sandwiches” when I was doing contract work at a radio station in Edmonton, Alberta. I probably could have asked for it…the station would never play this record (I don’t even think they had turntables in the studios) so I figured I’d save everyone the trouble.

When I was in university I ran into a friend from high school in a parking lot in my home town. He was in his Dodge Daytona listening to Celine Dion. I asked him why he was playing such garbage and he told me the album had a lot of bass. Now 15 years later I wonder if he likes dubstep. I doubt he knows what it is but you do so click below.

ELITE FORCE: NEW SINGLE & MIXTAPE

Written by manalogue. Posted on July 7, 2010. Filed under bass, breaks, electro, epic, maximal, mixtapes, rave, remix, wobble. Tagged , , , , , , . 1 Comment.

Several months back now, Elite Force ran a little competition on his facebook page asking for suggestions on new tracks to Revamp, with the winner grabbing one of the top-end  ‘Revamped’ packages from the Elite Force site and the winning entry came from Ivano Knight who suggested Midnight Juggernauts’ ‘Tombstone’. Well, grab the result below.

The latest single from ELITE FORCE, a collection of three remixes for “Law of Life” is a must-have for anyone looking for something to stomp to. Elite Force himself sums it up best as “battleweapon electro techno filth gnarly bass monster.” I think he forgot breaks, but maybe that’s being redundant.

Grab it from beatport.

KNIIFEPRRTY – NEW SINGLE

Written by Bonnaventure. Posted on June 22, 2010. Filed under 8-bit, bass, cancon, mashup, minimal. Tagged , , , , . No comments.


KNIIFEPRRTY was one of the first bands I blogged about for manalogue, so I was excited when they sent along their new single “STAY WILD” which they are selling via their Bandcamp page and can be previewed on soundcloud here:


Maybe drop a little coin for this if you dig it. Speaking of digging and being dug, my buddy and fellow Albertan KUMON PLAZA was recently featured on FORKCAST! Yeah boy! It feels like I know Drake or something… Go download the tune Final Boss, and check out this edit I did for an art opening mix CD of his tune Hans Kruger… Nothing too fancy, just shaving off 3 minutes to make it a little more of a pop-tune…

Kumon Plaza – Hans Kruger (Bonnaventure James Art Opening Edit)


For all y’all wanting something with more kick to it, mr. BASSNECTAR sent over a MASSIVE ATTACK bootleg to enjoy the solstice by. I believe Bassnectar played this tune (or a version of it) when I saw him at Shambhala a few years back, but can’t say for sure due to my state of mind at the time…

NAPT

Written by manalogue. Posted on May 30, 2010. Filed under bass, breaks, rave. Tagged , . No comments.

The funny thing about this tune is it came a day before I was supposed to play this outdoor party and I’m sure many of the people attending once wore (or would have worn if they were old enough) fat phat pants. Does that make things clear? Basically, it was supposed to be a rave. I’m not sure those things exist anymore so it would have been nice to find out. The party was rained out and blown down with the storm of the year.

It was difficult finding music to play for this party because my memories of raves are from over ten years ago. Mostly. There have been a handful of parties since then, including one in the dugout, dirt, basement of an abandoned church in Brighton which was, well, everything one could imagine in such a location.

Anyway, in my mind music at these types of events is supposed to be underground. I had a difficult time picking tunes that fit the bill, mostly because I can’t decipher what’s underground anymore and since everything is saturated and borrows elements from every style I don’t think it exists these days. (BTW, I hope I’m wrong, but I also hope it’s not because I’m getting on in years and completely out of touch, which is completely possible.)

So then this NAPT tune arrives in the inbox and gives me some inspiration. The vocal sample is perfect and reminds me of tunes from the mid-90s that contained similar messages. Plus the tune is thunderous and balanced and will get the kids jumping to and fro.

Fever Ray x Piranha Piranha + Giant45 Mixes

Written by Bonnaventure. Posted on May 11, 2010. Filed under bass, breaks, cancon, club, drum n bass, dubstep, house, remix, wobble. Tagged , , , , , , , , , , . 1 Comment.


MR. GEOGRAPHY and DAN SOLO make PIRANHA PIRANHA. They make dubstep, dnb, and hail from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. You dig? Of course you do! I always blah blah blah about how great they are, and how shocked I am that dubstep and bass music has taken off in this town. On CJSW or in the clubs, a wobble or a n amen break is not such a shocking appearance. This remix mashes the moody slow-down of Fever Ray with the JUMP UP sound of Drum and Bass.

Fever Ray – If I Had A Heart (Piranha Piranha’s Grownup Jumpup Mix) (new link)

Enjoy and all that! Recently Dan Solo recorded a mix at GIANT 45 on 17th ave here in Calgary and shared it with the world…. and now it looks like it’s going to be a regular thing. A-mac hits up Vol. 2 with some tech-ier sounds. ENJOY!

SIDNEY SAMSON

Sidney Samson - shut up

I can’t really say I’m a fan of Dutch House which would probably offend the original producer of this track. The thing is, so many people love the stuff I might as well show you something new(ish) from SIDNEY SAMSON.

“Shut Up & Let It Go” is everything that you’d expect – it’s a monster of a tune with some incredible remixes. The standout track from the single is from BAR9 who delivers bass like no other. That’s for you to check out elsewhere.

Here’s a remix from JACOB PLANT who keeps the Dutch influence but adds a tweak or two of electro power chords. The single is out on CR2 RECORDS and you can grab the package from iTunes
