Distinctive techno and electronica fused with dubstep beats meshed together in this EP, which once again encompasses the unique and instantly identifiable sound of Luthor. Ultra is a minimal techno piece laced with dubby stabs and riffs giving it that late night feel. Anoxic steps up the pace with an upbeat, techno-driven with tempo twists and unique breakdown. Greek God is truly one of Luthor’s best dance floor anthems to date; old school rave stabs ebb and flow through this track, backed up with detailed, driving percussion. Violet rounds out the EP with a laid back tune centered around a big bassline and quirky techno stabs.

Release date: 8/16/10, available on Beatport, Itunes and many more. Visit HauntedAudio.com for details.

About 5 years ago I heard a mix called “Paul Rose’s Dubstep Breaks”. At that time I was listening strictly to DNB and IDM and the word “dubstep” hadn’t made it’s way to people’s lips yet. This was the first I’d hear of dubstep, and my interest was sparked, launching an all out investigation into this new world.

Shortly after Paul Rose became known as Scuba and rose in popularity, parallel to the dubstep phenomenon. His label, Hot Flush Recordings, is one of the cornerstones of the house of dubstep, focusing on the deeper, more lush sides of the spectrum.

Along with DJ’s: Ashworth, Somejerk, Gray Ghost, Munkz , Claro, Gooddroid.

Scuba will be going on at a decent time for all our Monday morning workers!

No cover till 11, $5 after.  DOLLAR RED STRIPES TILL 11! Food and giveaways. And of course, DEEP bass.

Here’s a little info about Scuba:

Scuba is the production and DJ alias of Paul Rose, the curator of one of the original dubstep labels, Hotflush Recordings, which released some of the most important tracks of the genre’s formative period and has grown into a leading player in the wider world of electronic music.

Originally from London, Scuba relocated to Berlin in 2007, a move which (according to some) influenced his critically acclaimed debut album, A Mutual Antipathy (2008). The stylistic synergy of the album cemented his position as one of the most forward-thinking dubstep producers. The project was subsequently completed with a series of remixes by Surgeon, Substance, Jamie Vex’d, Martyn, Marcel Dettmann and the artist himself under his SCB guise.

His second album, Triangulation, was released on Hotflush in March 2010 to universal plaudits, with many reviewers immediately tipping it as a potential album of the year. An amalgamation of disparate styles, from house to experimental drum n bass, the album has been noted as a landmark in the genre-blurring trend of contemporary dance music.

Between album sessions he has been busy remixing artists including Booka Shade, Fever Ray and Will Saul, and developing the SCB project which focuses squarely on house and techno. In addition to A&R and production duties, he also runs the massively successful SUB:STANCE night at the legendary Berlin club Berghain, the sound of which he
committed to plastic in a DJ mix released on Ostgut Ton in January 2010.

I’ve been playing random bits from Terror Danjah for the last few months. His style is on some grimey swagger shit, with his dancefloor tunes funneling references to jungle and rave through his own unique sound. This is an actual album – not just a mixtape or a bunch of random tunes thrown together for the sake of a free release. He touches on grime, dubstep, house and a few things in between, all while maintaining cohesiveness and quality.

According to his MySpace: “Terror Danjah isn’t a household name, he’s not as well known as Wiley or Dizzee Rascal, but he’s considered by the grime cognoscenti to be the best grime producer ever.” If Mr. Danjah keeps putting out music on this level he’s definitely become a household name; with releases on Planet Mu and Hyperdub, two of my favorite labels, he’s already made his way into multiple markets and I have no doubt his sonic infiltration with stop any time soon.

Download the album and support the man by buying some tunes from Beatport or your favorite source for soundwaves.

George Lenton is on FIRE! Not that I’d expect anything less from one of the UK’s brightest and most talented electronic music producers. His unique take on pop songs integrates them into a new sonic realm, squeezing drops of sweet, poppy vocals in between grimey beats and filthy basslines.

Released by London’s Soul Motive label, this fine CD by Eleven Tigers, aka Lithuanian producer Jokubas Dargis, features huge sounds in the vein of Clubroot, Burial, Kontext and Mindset. Expansive and moving, the CD is sequenced like a mixtape, incorporating shoe-gaze elements with deep dubtech and idm-informed sounds. This may be my favorite release this year so far.

I met Kevin/Mainframe a few years ago when he was residing in/near Tampa, Florida. He’s moved back to California and since then has been making a name for himself as Bodie, his dubstep moniker that has such a heavy, undeniable West Coast sound to it that will make your mom want to Crip Walk upon the drop. Peep this mix from him and check him out if you can. Dude is blowing up and making the Digital Felon crew proud.

The Reazin has been doing it for a minute in South Florida, initially playing drumnbass and promoting events in West Palm Beach, he caught the dubstep bug and hasn’t looked back since. He’s been the driving force in the West Palm Beach dubstep scene, organizing events such as Proper Dosage and Dubstep Wednesdays, and Friction in Miami.
