Fools Gold / Nightshifters / Acephale artist Kingdom aka Kkingdomm will be bringing the heavy bass to the Barbary tonight. Kingdom has been on a tear ever since I first heard OMG Michelle’s You Don’t Know Michelle produced by Kingdom in late 2007 or early 2008 and his first mixtape, posted here in May of 2008. February saw his debut single Mind Reader released by Fools Gold. In January he had a feature remix on L-Vis 1990’s United Groove. Needless to say his career is only going to take off with those 2 releases coming in the first quarter of 2010.
In February, Kingdom joined fellow Fools Gold artists, Spank Rock, Ninjasonik, Theophilus London and more at the famed Fabric Nightclub (the best club I’ve ever been to) and released a promo mix. If you haven’t, download it below. It’s a dubstep / bassline / bass heavy mix featuring plently of Kingdom’s own production and more.
Just got this brand new mix from street bass and Seclusiasis don, Dev 79. All heavy bass anthems to make your speakers go boom!
this is sumthin i sat on from a few weeks ago and then i mastered it and typed out the tracklist the other day…it runs the gamut of a lot of bass heavy music with a lil dominance towards bassline house. theres some loose parts but ya know its fun n all that…
not a best of the year or anything like that but most of these tracks are def tunes that i was feelin in my sets a lot throughout 08…
so yeah check that shit out. tell people about it. dance around the house to it. fuck ya significant other (or trash bag ho) to it. smoke a blunt n sit back on it. ya know whatever u need to do to get down.
Heavy bass music sound clash this Friday. Check Lazersword and Bogl from San Francisco in store at Stussy (upstairs at Ubiq) from 7 - 10 then blowing holes in speakers from 10 - 2 with the Streetbass team of Starkey and Dev 79 and a free party at Silk City.
The sneaker freakin, EQ peaking duo from the bay area better known as LazerSword will be blessing Philadelphia for the first time ever. A special in store event from 7-10 at the new Stussy chapter store on 1509 walnut st will take place Friday Nov 21. Then the event switches venues to SilkCity (435 Spring Garden St.). From 10 to 2am.

Dj Bogl will be bringing some heavy artillary with his well rounded dubstep background as well as your favorite Dj Frosty will make sure it’s snowing.

In my epic quest to post every bassline producer that starts their name with a T, we are coming right now to a dude who has been killing it for a while with some tunes. This track was on that Touchdown 4 mixtape that I have had for a minute and always loved it. For ever I thought it was a diss track until I realized that they are down with each other.
Check out this video of these dudes in a rave. Fucking rewinded this sound like 3 times. Kids going crazy on the dance floor.
TRC - Burga Boy Style Dub (low Quality, although I can’t even point you to a place to buy it, maybe they will google their own shit and read this and know that people want to support we just need to know where to get this shit.)
Just went over to Cameo’s show on BBC 1xtra (time sensitive so go now and listen back) and dude is interviewing the who’s who of the new school of UKG Bassline massive. Interviews with all of my favorite producers at the moment, Dj Murkz, Burga Boi, Witty Boy… Listen into the interviews to hear them chatter about inane things, discuss on how they got new tracks that are gonna be bangin this summer but are still getting rinsed on all the UKG radio shows. Shit is just insane and they are confirming what we already know over here. Bassline is not a fad, its a movement.
Another massive 4×4 banger from the one and only Mr. V. He is also know as Virgo for all you grime instrumental fans but that shit is tired. Its all about the big basslines of the UKG 4×4 ut ohhhhhhhhh… The main reason I am posting this track is for the half time break downs that are becoming really common in 4×4 tracks. I think they are absolutely essential in the mix and really add that break in a hardcore 140(+) bpm set… I guess thats kinda why I like the tracks with girls singing lines about dudes also cause it really breaks up the grittyness of this shit. Anyways for the real shit check Mr. V 4×4 myspace page to listen to Weekend Lover that is my shit…. http://www.myspace.com/mrvirgobeats
