Grab LoBounce’s new “A Brief Introduction” EP
[WHAT] Rising dubstep DJ and producer, Nit Grit, hails from San Jose, California and has strategically put himself on the map with his unique grimey drops and melodic song progressions. This is the kind of dubstep I would show to someone who’s never heard of the genre, given its not as glitchy and hardcore. The dubstep/electro filled night will also be showcasing some bounce dubstep from Spankalicious recently ranked “Top St.Louis DJ” by the River Front Times. A blend of Cali and Midwest dubstep should showcase a cool variety of bpm’s and bass sounds.

[WHAT] Excision, still in his early 20′s, came out of Canada with an ear and a unique music taste that would allow him to be one of the most revered dubstep artist of our generation. Mixing industrial sounds with intergalactic synths is only the beginning for Excision. Perfectly balancing metal, hip hop and electro to create an innovative dark version of the growing genre that is dubstep. Under his own label, Rottun Recordings, Excision has single handedly pushed the dubstep sound to the ears of many by putting out grimey yearly Shambala Dubstep Mixes that when played make any room feel like a machine war apocalypse. Gracing the stage before Excision will be bass heavy weights Downlink and Antiserum, both prolific in their individual crafts of mixing and insane drops. While you pre-game tonight throw on the 2010 Shambala Mix and tell me it doesn’t make you want to rage 10X harder.
For this special event the production tour team announced that they “will be adding a massive 50,000 watt PK Sound System designed specifically for Dubstep, along with a sick Intelligent Lighting, and Video rig” .

[WHAT] Turning up the bass to levels you never knew existed, SPL has had extensive practice at putting subwoofers to the test. Repping the increasingly popular dubstep genre, SPL is throwing in his own crunk and trap spices into the mix, creating a one-of-a kind whomping experience. With their new Bassnectar’s Bass Head Remix (after jump) getting great buzz I can assure that SPL will be coming at us hard this Friday. Stratus is a member of Ghetto Sexuual natives to Chicago, putting out a great trancy, low end sound that you have to groove to. Presenting and throwing down are Wolf Pack, newly signed to Further Sound dubstep management. Limelighting more into the scene, this hard stepping duo are growing into experimental dub pioneers.

[WHAT] Mimosa is a name that you will continue to see more and more of in the electro/dub scene. Having already climbed his way up the ladder really quickly, this energetic producer has shared the stage with heavyweights such as Benga, Skream, Rusko, Datsik, Glitch Mob, ill.gates, Bassnectar and Flying Lotus. This line-up is going to be a great representation of what we strive to see here at CrowdNoize, a symphonic mix of hip hop beat tracks, electronic and dub/glitch. Be ready to whomp, head bob and sweat it out!

[WHAT] Vaski is a native to Minneapolis, Minnesota and started dropping dubstep in 2008, so he is still a fairly new name to dubstep . Having a powerful activation into the scene Vaski’s name is heard more and more in the dubstep community and his sound is only getting grimier and grimier. Vaski integrates different levels of sounds into his music such as tech , sci-fi and heavy industrial. Needless to say, I’m really pumped for this show.
“I still remember the first night I heard the infamous “Get Down” track which would rightfully solidify Vaski’s standing among the current Dupstep heavyweights. Vaski’s sound teeters on the line of impressive synth-scape builds to filthy wrenching bass drops. His Electro House roots are evident in the consistency of his sound through out all of his Dubstep production. An impressive string of ridiculous dub releases on Excision’s Rottun Records accompanied by an eccentric stage presence speaks to the necessity of seeing this cat live. Did I mention dude is a Twin Cities homie? Midwest what up!” – Leigh Wasson, CrowdNoize Creative Director

[WHAT] Emalkay has been rising in the dubstep food chain for several years now. Catching the attention of several labels and producers across the nation Emalkay’s big break came when veteran producer/artist Caspa released Emalkay’s hit single “Explicit” on his Dub Police Label in February of 2009. Being one of those DJ’s that takes his music quality very seriously, I have yet to hear an Emalkay track or remix that is not just straight grimey goodness. Although the headliner is exciting I cant overlook the fact that some amazing local dub talent will be having a dub-battle that night! Check out Whoa-B’s viral hit.
