Illuminate… DeLuminate… NicoLuminate

SUMMER IS HERE!

This post doesn’t actually have much to do with Wesley Snipes aside from the title. On the contrary, NicoLuminous from Portland, an accomplished vocalist, beat boxer and multi-talented improvisational musician is looking pretty bright under this summer’s sun. Putting some serious Ableton skills, beatbox, and flow into a tight package, Nico’s been churning out some heat this year with some slinky shoulder poppers to put a bug in your dome. So peep here, a little west coast hip hop dub decorated with that glitch and bass:

Flyer Than A Star Trek Ship

One thing I’ve always said that makes Freddy Todd dope is his consistency, and Freddy’s been consistently pushing the utter sickness through our airspace this year and last with his driving rhythms, unpredictable synths, and overall obese-as-hell crunkness. The result is a giant BLIP on the glitch hop radar that shows Freddy Todd making waves in 2010 and hopefully dropping bombs on more cities soon. (We’re still waiting, Freddy) Anyone who’s followed us for awhile should already be familiar with this man and the label he’s signed with: Run Riot Records, who’s still got a cavalcade of crazy talented artists just lurking in the wings.

Freddy Todd – Space 5 Penthouse Suite

Freddy Todd – Grind Baby

Freddy Todd – Detroit Gets It

Look out for Freddy Todd’s upcoming release for Space 5 Penthouse Suite on Car Crash Set. It’ll be a heavy compilation of remixes of the above tracks by Mochipet, NiT GriT, ill-esha, Samples, Inaudible, and Elfkowitz. Click them for previews or peep these two below:

Mochi-SPLAT!

SPLATINUM from Seattle, WA just sent to a select number of blogs a treasure trove of remixes from their forthcoming album WE ARE SPLATINUM on Daly City Records coming on 4/20/10.

We got an exclusive remix of their track ‘Pumping Quarterz’ by our friendly neighborhood dinosaur, Mochipet. This track is the LARGENESS and it comes to no surprise that the buildups are as epic as the nasty drops, and the synths twist their way into the side of your face in true Mochipet fashion. Well done, SPLATINUM. Well done.

SPLATINUM – Pumping Quarterz (Mochipet Remix)

SPLATINUM has 2 releases dropping on 04/20:

1. WE ARE SPLATINUM – 9 track digital release on Daly City Records

2. Der Schplatzl 2010 – 16 track compact disc on Daly City Records (7 tracks are unavailable digitally)

SPLATINUM is also having a FREE outdoor release party for these in the middle of downtown Seattle called the Intergalactic Masquerade Dance Party on April 20th, from 6-9PM.

Attack of the Bass

November 10, 2009 By Ev-1 6 Comments

This Saturday is Attack of the Bass! I would write a post for it, but the homette Shilo from wrote SUCH a delicious post about it (as she usually does) that I’m going to shamelessly rip hers. Thanks Shilo! ;) Check out her blog Dancefever5000. THE place to peep for reviews and events for the West Coast bass culture, among various other random musings. Wreckognize.

“BWOMP (Bass With Out Musical Preference) present: Attack of the Bass with a lineup that is diverse in styles yet united in the search for the cell-shuddering bass: glitch hop, dubstep, crunk and all of their miscreant children. The venue is tight as hell, covered in killer graffiti art with plenty of space both to chill and to dance, and the sound support is by none other than PURE FILTH. Besides the whomp you will find live artists doing 8-bit art as well as live graffiti and airbrushing, and don’t forget the video games.” -DS5K

The lineup for the night:

ANTISERUM
MASK
SAINT VII
PUPPY KICKER

And the BWOMP crew:

JViz

Ev-1

Frenetic

DJ 007

Demon0ne

Sati

TenBucc2

DJ Eye Q

Myndz~iii

Attack of the Bass is 18+, $10 before 11PM and $15 after. Doors at 8PM, venue TBA. Click here for the Facebook event page.

Last week’s party went off without a hitch and I think you can safely say we are 2 for 2! Thank you to all the beat freaks who came out to the party and/or the Ill Gates Workshop. Big ups to METAVERSE who flew out from BOSTON to join us. You are MVP for sure my man.

In less than a week, BWOMP! will be launching its first weekly in LA, aptly titled BWOMP! Thursdays. If you’re in the area, come out and party with us and see how we gets down with sound! Talent for October includes Propa Tingz, 6Blocc, Bartek, and breakbeat mastas Patricio + Oscure on our opening night. Peep the events page for more info!

On a related note, Low End Theory, the maestros of bass music weeklies, have released a podcast mix by resident cutmaster D-Styles and The Glitch Mob. Plenty of unreleased tracks to be heard from these badbwais. Both mixes are off the fetters.
