N3GUS stole my bike!! Sorry, couldn’t resist. I’m digging the video game / Pacman vibes in this funky jump up / drum n bass tune Kites.
Now Bristol based, N3GUS may be a new name on the scene but Kerry Negus aka Scheme aka N3GUS has been a long term supporter of Spearhead. Most of the early test pressings had their first play in Kerry’s ‘Bounce Records’ in Norwich.

I know you guys are all scheming and planning your New Year’s Eve parties (if you’re not seeing live music, that is) so in that case I got ya covered. It’s been a huge year for Figure, the undisputed father of drumstep. He’s already given away a bunch of free tracks this year so I think this is a good way to wrap up the year.
The Ball Drop is essentially a remix of Auld Land Syne, the song traditionally sang to bring in the new year. He puts a whole …

Bare recently hit 20,000 fans on his Facebook page so he felt it necessary to give away two free tracks. Awesome, right? Makes you wonder would happen if he hit 40,000 likes? Just sayin’. I’m a huge fan of this track Clips as it showcases Bare’s unique thugstep sound with lots of rap samples and attitude.

I have a serious love for hard hitting filthy dubstep that has a theme of intergalactic space funk, and for some reason not too many artists do that sound. Someone who does, however, is MVM. Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, MVM produces some of the thickest and chunkiest space bass I’ve heard to date.

New from Culprate is this edgy and in your face glitch hop track Finger featuring Linguistic. I was all thrown off as I thought this was posted to the UKF Dubstep YouTube channel but it was actually the UKF Music channel. Looks like they got a shiny new logo as well.
Available now on Inspected Records via Beatport.

When a YouTube video has 877 dislikes an 35 likes, you know you’re in for a treat. In this video, YouTube user lettersTOkristen sits down to give us a hear-to-heart on what dubstep is, for those are not aware. Gotta love her PSA in the beginning where she says dubstep should stay underground “for the cool people.” Because you’re so cool… Right?
I should have stopped there but I kept watching. I really lost it when she says newcomers to the genre should start with Skrillex and then move on cooler …

I’ve mentioned quite a few times on here that my inbox is flooded every day with emails from young and aspring producers and DJs trying to get a feature on here, and I certainly can respect that. Don’t get me wrong, I feel guilty every time I hit the “delete” button but so often I check out their Soundcloud and think “meh” when I see a few electro remixes of some current pop songs. But tonight my friends, I stumbled upon an absolute goldmine.
The highly controversial Bangarang EP was only …

Turns out Joel Zimmerman aka Deadmau5 was feeling the holiday spirit this season and decided to give his fans a free Christmas gift. Xmas Stuff is an extremely downtempo and ambient version of I Remember, or what Joel calls “noodling and doodling of a classic.”
