Ring the alarm!! The Urban Nerds are stepping up to provide the dub shed. Taking a break from the normal bass heavy beats this crew is now famous for they will be providing the perfect accompaniment to the après ski vibe.
Expect reggae classics, dubplates, remixes and upfront ragga to get you in the dancing mood. All of the Nerds’ residents are coming equipped with a little extra something that will set the Dub Shed as a congregation point for the whole team. Grab a rum or a jagerbomber and pop by to show some love and sing along to the range of reggae on offer. Sign up for the host of competitions on offer and win yourself some exclusive merchandise and make yourself part of the Urban Nerds Snowbombing Dub Shed history! Also, expect an exclusive set by the Farm Yardies who will be providing exclusive tunes from their anticipated debut album! Make sure you hunt this little gem down for your guaranteed dose of roots rockin’ reggae riddims!
Bullet Train Records frontman Marco Del Horno gets ready for spring with a fresh mix showcasing some rude forthcoming releases from the Bullet camp as well as some of 2009’s biggest electro undercovers re-fixed by the MDH himself, including personal favourites The Only Way Out Is Down, Roska’s Holograph and Nerds wheel-up – Pull It. He smashed it at Urban Nerds’ first House Party last month. If you missed it, you missed out but download this banger for some top house and electro party vibes…
It’s warehouse time again…next week is shaping up to be another ridiculously dutty Urban Nerds as we launch Snowbombing 2010 at our Valentine’s party with JME, Virus Syndicate, Cotti, Doctor, Rattus, Klose, Illaman, Tomb Crew, Tayo, Ordio Kid, L-Wiz and Crazy D…MASSIVE!
SECRET LOCATION NOW REVEALED:

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!
Yeah we know it’s New Year and all that but we’ve still got a bit of NYE on the brain…definitely one to remember! This fresh footage has just hit YouTube featuring breakbeat super DJs and ATG Do-One residents, The Equalizers doing what they do best. And hold tight for the tune in the background – ‘Don’t Rely On The Radio’, the next single from The Equalizers out in Febuary 2010!
The Rest is Noise is a fairly new edition to Brixton’s booming nightlife circuit. Opening last year, the bass friendly club has quickly made its mark on the scene with some solid line-ups covering an amalgamation of sounds from the realms of dubstep, electro, reggae, house and The Rest! On Friday 5th February Nerds players Rattus and Klose One return for another mash-up set following a rammed debut at the end of 09. If you’re in dirty South…you know where to go!
We’re a little late on this (dropped a couple of weeks back) but still…if you haven’t heard it yet, grime wonder-kid Chipmunk’s latest free offering is worth a listen! After a short term on London’s underground circuit (including a sick set at Nerds back in 2007), Chippy’s gone from strength to strength, following the likes of Dizzee and Tinchy to chart success. For The Fun of It shows just why his rise is so deserved. With features from the likes of Wiley, Tinchy, Scorcher, Sway, Bashy and N-Dubz, it’s Chipmunk doing what he does best!

Life in the Low-rent world of the BBL ain’t a Bed of roses. this isn’t the high-rolling universe of the NBA. it’s a proving ground, a test of mind and body that can make or break dreams of moving onto a bigger and better payday elsewhere. dealing with bus trips, prehistoric gyms and three-figure crowds throws up constant challenges. some sink, others flourish. a few opt to stick around. if first impressions count, what’s going through the minds of this year’s BBL rookies? four of the best speak exclusively to FadeAway’s Mark Woods.
A passion for streetball has taken Kevin Couliau to some of the world’s most famous blacktops – first as a ball player, now as a
photographer trying to share his vision of basketball. he spent this past summer in NYC…
With the Winter Weather too cold to play ball outside, video games can be a great way to take care of your Basketball cravings. but at around £50 a pop, which game do you spend your left-over Christmas money on, NBA Live 2010 or NBA 2k10?
As Always, FadeAway brings you the latest sneaker releases….But which should be hung from the rafters, and which should be strung up? Judge for yourself….
