UKBassMusic is back online

Image
Some years ago, Lara and I spent months (+ the rest) setting up UKBassMusic.com - it was an all-singing, all-dancing interactive magazine with interviews, reviews, event listings, videos, mixes and so much more relating to the scene(s) we love within Electronic Music.  We ran it, successfully for over a year, providing amazing content for our readers from a dedicated team of writers and it naturally grew in popularity and respect by the day. Unfortunately we had to bed the site due to some technical issues and it laid dormant for around 3 years until we could work out how we could manage such a workload in a productive way ensuring to not skimp on quality of content.  Well, it's back. It's in it's infancy at the moment, so come and join us for the ride.  We've uploaded all the UKBMixes here  - which I'm currently listening through and reminding myself of. Some bangers in there.

#MusicMondays: Menik & Sublok feat. Ni Foster - Our Own

Image
So utterly proud to list this track as today's Music Monday, especially as I'm lucky enough to be Menik's Manager! He is an incredibly talented musician/producer, this was one of the first tracks I heard from him which made my ears prick up and jump at the chance of working with him. His Soundcloud reveals more beautiful music from him here More info on Tom here Enjoy and keep your eyes peeled for more from Menik very soon x

#MusicMondays: Mala - In Luv

Image
Love this track so much. Such warm bass accompanied by beautiful vocals from Erykah Badu & Stephen Marley. A real zoner. Big up Mala every time - the consistent simplicity yet effectiveness of his production is absolutely sublime. Enjoy x Note: as with most of the tracks I pick for MusicMondays - make sure you have some bass friendly earphones/speakers when listening otherwise you'll miss out on the magic.

#MusicMondays: The Bug ft. Flowdan & Killa P - Skeng

Image
You may call me biased but I loved this track before knowing Flowdan and Killa P let alone working with them - this was one of my favourite tracks of that year, 2007, in fact, I'm pretty sure it was doing the rounds before that - and this was definitely one of those crowning moments for me, it drew me into the subbass realms of Dubstep even further, I was a newbie around 2006/07 and this along with a couple of Kiss 100 sets I still have ripped to CD from Hatcha and Crazy D well and truly solidified my new found addiction. By the way, if you're listening to this through laptop speakers, don't. That's silly. You need bass.  Life is nuts. I loved this track, years later I'm working with Killa P, and now I'm Flowdan's manager. Plus I was at the location of this video shoot a couple of weeks ago. If someone had have told me this would have been happening back then when I still had a sub in my Navy Peugeot 206 I would definitely have not believed them....

#MusicMondays: L-Wiz - Girl From Codeine City

Image
Swedish duo L-Wiz are behind this absolute beauty of a Music Monday. Released on Caspa's label Dub Police in 2008 - this track was rightfully played at pretty much every Dubstep event I attended, nice Reggae influenced bounce to it, beautiful melody from the saxophone which easily helps your mind drift away on top of more than enough bassweight to make you screw up your face (a welcome side effect when stood in front of a seriously bassy sound system) enjoy x
