Electronica music in general is all about samples whether if its 303's,909's The 303 was a synthesizer and the 808 was a drum machine that synthesized percussion sounds. Neither was a sampler. alright that was probably a bad example.. I admit. However the main point here really was that anything an...

To try and argue about sampling another dubstep artists material yet singling out other artists that are sampling hip-hop,dnb,breaks and straight up motion picture movies from Paramount Pictures,20th Centur...

FLAT GREY! I still remember his performance when michael had open/inputs running at the soma cafe (well before the dubforms series). I think it was april of 06. Probably the one best drone/dark ambient/noise performance I have ever heard. Who knew you could attach a violin to a distortion pedal and ...

come on it can't be that confusing.... Record you material... put it on the net... burn it on a cd... go a dubstep night... hell maybe a dnb or jungle night and pass your demo to them. Of course put your contact info somewhere on it...

You'll start getting feedback.

every track is different... Every DJ's mixing style is different as well. When I mix I only adjust either mids or lows. High's are always set to half. I'll give you an example of 2 tracks and how I normally mix it in. Lets take - Bloc Party - Where is home? (burial remix) on deck 1 and Distance - Fe...

Combined it create's a bigger force to b...

Warrior Queen Appreciation Thread

What can I say... She has an amazing voice. Her latest work with 'The Bug' on Poison Dart is phenomenal. Can't wait for any of the other future collaboration material she is working on.

Discuss..
