RSD Exclusive Radio Mix (Calgary)

So this past Friday we had the pleasure of hosting one of our heroes, RSD aka Rob Smith (Smith & Mighty), alongside NYC's, Sub Swara, at our weekly Modern Math.

I credit RSD's productions/djing with solidifying my personal tastes regarding dubstep the genre, and have to say that I have played more of his tracks in the last 2 years than just about any producer going.

So you can understand the excitement that we were feeling regarding this show.. A big shout out is in order to all that attended this past Friday. Big night! Thank you!

Here's the juice tho.. a little bonus for those who may have missed...and some desert for those that were there.

Our good friends and collaborators Paul & Shannon run a local radio program on CJSW 90.9 FM by the name, What Would the Neighbors Think?
They approached us about wanting to have RSD & Sub Swara come on the show prior to Modern Math to plug the event and chat music etc...

Little did we know that the man like RSD would agree to play a live set on air, and then allow us to post the mix online for download!!!

So ladies and gentelman...its with great pleasure that we give you a brand new/exclusive dj mix by the one and only RSD.
This, like his set at Modern Math is absolutely flawless..chalked full of some unreleased heat, underground gems, and a couple classic favorites.
Don't sleep on this mix dub lovers!

Rob Smith is a Jedi Master. Period.

Coachella 2010

So I made my second pilgrimage down to Coachella Music Festival this past weekend...The last time I was there was 2002...so it has changed a tonne to say the least.
In 2002 I was rolling Solo (no pun intended)...but this year I was with a crucial crew of some of my best mates, which made all the difference in the world.

I'm not gonna go into detail reviewing my favorite/least favorite shows of the weekend...I'll just keep it simple...

Top 3.
1. Thom Yorke w/Atoms for Peace (Flea & Mr Yorke's new band make magic-gonna be huge!)
2. Fever Ray (Consciousness expanding live show...mind blown.)
3. Die Antwoord (Highest energy performance of the whole weekend, short but oh so sweet!)

Egyptrixx XLR8R Podcast

Roska - Quicktime

As a loyal Blackberry user, There is only one thing that has ever made me consider changing over to Iphone and that would be the RinseFM App.

Rinse FM for countless reasons stands on top of that mountain of accomplishment with a little halo around it's head.

They have again fortified that standing by providing us with a few free tracks one of them a little mix up of a DJ Naughty tune by Roska:

dl - DJ Naughty - Quicktime (Roska Remix)

Roska has been really on top of his game. With a full EP out and track after track of goodness, I can't say that I am sad that he has been stranded in Canada for the past week due to some volcanic activity.

Roska I know you're bummed but on another note, "Queen Mum, can we keep him?!?!!?"

Sub Swara & RSD @ Modern Math this Friday!!!

Easily one of the most exciting shows we've had come to Modern Math since its inception.
This one is for the real dub heads!

Sub Swara (NYC) destroyed the beach stage at Shambhala Music Festival last August, and this is their first appearance since.

RSD(Bristol,UK) is a personal favorite of mine and the whole RinseOut Crew for that matter...I credit Rob Smith with being the producer to solidify my love for dubstep in the first place.

Tickets are available in advance at Giant 45 & Grass Roots.
Check the Facebook Event for more details...

PL Funky

When I first heard the 'PL Funky' releases I was mildly confused(perpetual state my dear friends). Did the 'PL' stand for. "Oh Gosh, DJ PUH-LEASEEE hold me back?" Or maybe something a little more rudie like "PULLL up dat riddim." Well imagine my surprise when I realized that the PL stood for POLAND. Not like their aren't plenty of rudegyals/rudebwoys requesting bodily restraint from that part of Europe, however it seemed like it was a poetic kind of justice since it was one of my my favorite Eastern European countries and the compilation has one of my favorite ATM tracks. Hands down.

I am also happy to know that this compilation is being released digitally on Top Billin' April 30 and that it will get the proper accolades it deserves.

The Top Billin' boys were nice enough to give us a full 320 track and another one at 128 to wet your pallet's


dl- Tezzy & Zeppy - MTP Riddim (320)

dl- The Phantom - Cambodia (128)


So...PUH-LEASE DJ PUH-LLL UP DAT!!!

To Juke or not to Juke?

After being more than consumed with the concept that one small drum loop could be the foundation for a whole genre (can I get an 'Amen, brother'?) I was slightly annoyed with how taken aback I was by the idea that an 808 kick and one memorable sample could create a tune that will reinvent the way we see music once more.

Whatever it may be, it's a slice of genius coming from Addison Groove AKA Headhunter





Buy it HERE at Boomkat Records.

Feel The Heat

Only from the UK can the words 'Caribbean Rave' sound right.

That is what Gabriel, with his infamous 'Heatwave' show on RINSE FM has been doing since 1998. Promoting Caribbean music in all it's finest moments, reinventing it and refixing it.

We, at TheRinseOut, do love a good rave party and with the introduction of Funky Bashment into our lives, we are donning our booty shorts and getting ready to get dirty on the subs.

So here is a little mix from the Heatwave Blog for the good folks at XLR8R. Grab a partner, grab some peanut punch (hopefully with a splash of rum in it) and rave Caribbean styles!

Trentemoller - Sycamore Feeling (Video)

Here is the new video of the first single "Sycamore Feeling" from the upcoming Trentemøller album Into The Great Wide Yonder set for release this June 7... it sounds like a definite departure from the tech house sounds we know and love from the man...but I'm still super excited for this album to drop!

Headhunter /// BootyTek

Here's a mix I just stumbled upon while surfin the soundclouds. It's one of Headhunter's from late last year. I'm usually looking for his dub bombers but this time he killllls it with Booty Tech! I love it... sick mixture of wonderful house samples over crazy bassdrum riddims! Soundcloud listen for now, looks like the cap was at 100 for downloads but this is probably floating around somewhere! Serious hype!

I'm Sorry (Woodhead Bootleg)

One of our top shelf mates just dropped this nice lil' bootleg on us recently...its a lovely retake on Brenda Lee's classic, I'm Sorry.


Woodhead's remake is a lot more chilled out than George Lenton's recent version of this tune...but its just as hype. I played it at Modern Math on Friday...and it mashed up the dance!

dl - Brenda Lee - I'm Sorry (Woodhead & Blenda Remix) (Direct Link)

Preview-

Brenda Lee - I'm Sorry (Woodhead & Blenda Remix) by WOODHEAD

Little known fact...Woodhead was one of the first cats out in Vancouver to give me a shot pon the decks when I was just a young upstart dj out there early in the last decade...he brought me under his wing, shared a tonne of gigs with me, and opened a lot of doors for me.
We held a residency together there in 2005 at Granville Island's Backstage Lounge on Tuesday nights...mad memories to be had!
He is badman dj/producer with a heart of gold...big ups Darren!
Keep these gems coming...follow his blog, Sauna Sessions, to keep up on all that the man is up to...

Von D - Free Tune!

Von D is giving away this well proper DUBstep tune on his soundcloud...get this while you can.
