Mary Anne Hobbs this week marked the 15th anniversary of her seminal BBC Radio 1 Dubstep Warz broadcast with a special show on BBC 6 Music.
Hobbs' influential Dubstep Warz show aired on BBC Radio 1 15 years ago this month as part of her now defunct Breezeblock radio show, with the show introducing a number of the then burgeoning dubstep scene's key figures to a whole host of listeners around the world.
EVA808 will release her debut album, ‘Sultry Venom’, this Friday 18th December.
Released on USA heavyweight bass label Innamind Recordings, the 19-track LP follows the success of the Icelandic producer’s singles ‘Prrr’ and ‘Exchange’ - already accumulating a steady stream of endorsement from the likes of Commodo and Hudson Mohawke.
Skrillex has shared a new track.
After teasing fans about the potential follow-up to his 2014-released debut album, ‘Recess’, since January this year, DJ and producer Skrillex has now shared a brand new track ahead of a bigger project.
Early this morning, Skrillex shared a photo to Twitter showing him using Ableton's "share on Soundcloud" feature. Shortly after, the new production, 'Kliptown Empyrean', appeared on the producer's Soundcloud page.
This brings us to ‘Dead End’ by Unknown Artist: a dread-filled roller that mashes up grime, dubstep and dark garage; wrong-footing you with tempo changes, fills, builds and breaks. Could this be their own first production, we ask?
“Excuse me?” jokes Imbratura, with a smile. It’s been hard to find time to work on their own music, says Ndeko, similarly refusing to reveal who it is, but adding: “We’re in a good place, we can’t really say more than that.”
Tracklist:
London-via-Birmingham's Barely Legal is a mainstay of the UK scene. An artist who has been at the forefront of the underground bass world for almost a decade, the DJ and label owner has spent 2019 playing gigs everywhere from Munich to Ibiza, and performed at Croatia’s Hideout, Creamfields, and Snowbombing. As the year winds down, Barely Legal is finishing up her Pretty Weird tour, a label affiliated party series, which has been touring the country since August.
Munich labels Ruffhouse and Schlachthofbronx's Rave & Romance have teamed up to release a new 10” from Berlin-based producer Tymotica.
‘Galaxies of Dust’ will be released on 15th November, and is comprised of a bold original mix, as well as a remix from Schlachthofbronx.
It has been a month of difficult decisions for many. Not least the DJ Mag team, who had to try and figure out how to rank events in order of importance for what’s looking like the strongest month for UK clubs we’ve seen in some time.
