Our pals over at Ego Thieves are back on their mix game with a fresh edition from the bass crazy Tomba…bringing you his new mix called Disturbed. Warped bass, sub low wobbles and brain shaking sounds (and thats the polite way to describe it). Let the bass weight do the talking…
This Friday the weekly clubbing, events and all-round London to-do people in the know that are Time Out present an all new club night (their first of the year) that promises to bring a slice of bloc party Harlem to Shoreditch’s East Village! Nite Sessions will play host to hip-hop’s premier AV party don, DJ Yoda, spinning his finest alongside YoYo exports Greenmoney, bass champions CNTRST & SDUK alongside some mash-up bizz-niss (just the way we like it) from Heavenly Jukebox upstairs in the bar. There’s only one place to be this Friday to get your skank on, so head down to the bass-bin basement at East Village for this weekend’s number one party fix…Nerds will be reppin’!
To get things warming we’ve got hold of an exclusive Greenmoney mix! Load up your headphones and check it HERE

This month’s issue of Esquire magazine is proof of just how far the reach of dubstep is now. The sound that only a couple of years ago was still considered to be largely underground has infiltrated adverts, TV shows, commercial radio and mainstream chart bangers and now…dubstep has made it into the conservative mens style guide with a 40-something readership that is Esquire Magazine. This month’s Esquire Manual features ‘How To Talk Dubstep’, a five-step guide to bass-weight from Soul Jazz’s Nicole McKenzie. Don’t know what to make of this…it’s the age old debate of whether the sounds we love should stay under the radar or embrace growth and inevitably cross-over into the mainstream. In this case there’s definitely a transition. Either way, it’s still sick, we still love it, we’ll still push it. Dubstep’s here to stay!
