#TrapTues 21

Thank god. It seems trap producers are making a real effort to keep the style fresh and not recycle the same old formula. While 808′s, fast hi-hats, and snare rolls will always be part of the genre, there are a so many artists now getting more comfortable using new sounds and rhythms. This week is just a sample of some of those artists. While it’s no surprise why ƱZ is here, the real highlights of this batch are the up-and-comers: Brazillian Tropkillas, LA’s Kayzo, and our friends Chasing Dragonz. The vibes of some of these tracks are just boss. Peep game:


BWOMP! Mix Series 013: DRUMSMUGGLA

We’re proud to present Drumsmuggla, alias of one George Ybarra aka DJ CRS? in this newest installation of the BWOMP! Mix Series.

Most LA bass heads already know that several times a year, you can catch George at “I Love LA” which he organizes with fellow jungle veteran and partner, APX-1. He also hosts “The Revolution Show,” a Monday night weekly internet radio show that, like his parties, showcases many known as well as not-so-known talent in the LA area, in addition to the Drumsmuggla himself.

A propensity for evolution has seen George in the past transition effortlessly from jungle like a boss as a testament to his adaptability and experience. On top of that he’s a nice and humble dude. Whichever name you may know him by, George remains one of the champions of the LA bass scene of the last 2 decades and this mix shows why. Contrabandit is dark, tough, and mixed with the flair of a man who knows his craft. The opening minutes quickly set the tone for the mix with a fat street bassy Starkey cut, warming up your neck muscles for the griminess that follows. After that, it’s down the dubstep rabbit hole you go.
