DJ C “PTS” DJ Mix
I was recently invited to spin-up a set over at Northwestern University’s radio station; WNUR 89.3 FM. My man Jeekoos runs the Part Time Suckers (PTS) radio show there and diligently records the guest DJ sets. He’s got what seems like hundreds of them archived on his website. Their show tends to be dubstep-centric — PTS member, Searchl1te rocked a…
Neo-Rave Marches On
I’m noticing (with a heads up from friends like LA disco/law superstar Henry Self) that the whole Neo-Rave pehnomenon is creeping more and more into the mainstream every day (specifically the world of what was once referred to as ELECTROCLASH before that name became terribly unfashionable). Peep the rave influence in these tunes (which are essentially just poppy electro cuts)–the…
New Beat Mixtape
Here’s another installment of me going on about some under-remembered electronic subgenre of the past–this time the focus is on Belgium, and New Beat. Long before house music made it out of the Midwest, Belgium had a thriving electronic music scene (they called it Electronic Body Music, or EBM, and it was basically a dancier variant of Industrial—think Front 242,…
Crakin’ in Caracas
There’s a new “bass oriented” night called Wobbler Soundclash about to start up in Caracas, Venezuela hosted by Cardopusher and Pacheko. Check out some of the dubstep-y tracks at their Myspace page. I’m especially feelin’ Cardopusher’s Melody… and Pacheko’s Bipolar Bear. I’ve been enjoying Cardopusher’s amped-up style of beat-fuckery for a while now. He’s had releases on French breakcore label…
Starkey’s Work Ethic is Making the Rest of Us Look Bad
My boy Starkey is keeping BUSY lately! This guy is one of my fave dubstep producers at the moment. (But then again, would I have put out one of his records if I didn’t like him?) VERY recently he came through with the Street Bass Anthems Vol. 2 comp on Seclusiasis, and now he’s got TWO new releases of his…

I. Adore. Lime.
Howdy folks! Murderbot speaking. I am new to this whole fancy “BLOG” thing, and also woefully behind on the whole “world of modern music” nonsense, so I guess I’ll start things out by enumerating some of my very favorite older things that I think should be a little higher-profile than they are in the current hipster dance music culture at…
