Figure – Have You Fucked Up (Punks Get Jumped) by Figure
STUN GUN
I have no idea what relationship Lennon plays to this track cause he’s not in it. Maybe he’s the psychadelic reference point for it!
Anyway good track man, grab it!

RANKDANK RECORDS
Awesome track here by Mr Lorenz, check it out and here’s what his label say:
Rankadank Presents to you a new single by Steven Lorenz and to celebrate the release, the founder of Rankadank ‘ConRank’ is giving away his
banging bootleg remix of the dancefloor anthem Reset!
Released on 19th December this dark blend of searing percussion and
booming bass is sure to keep everyone moving!
Inspired by his brother, Lorenz started working on tunes from the age of 14. This was a range that spanned from minimal techno, all the way to electro and dubstep. By the age of 18 he had found himself playing in the biggest clubs across Asia and things escalated from there.
His latest release ‘Bottle Bong’ will take dubsteppers to a whole new
world, his blend of dark soundscapes meets perfectly with an incredible
percussion element, reminiscent of early squarepusher or aphex twin but
only now in a modern and heavy dubstep element.
It is a song that can inspire both old electronic heads as well as modern
day dubsteppers and has been turning heads on dance floors all over the
far east.
With this release Steven Lorenz is now breaking out of Asia and showing
the world what he has got.
Rankadank Records aims to bring you the freshest sounds combing all the
best elements of urban culture from Shanghai to London.
Be prepared for more releases very soon!!

ATOMIC DUBSTEP
Sounds like Liquid Stranger, Rottun Crew!
Atomic – Missile [WIP] by Atomic Dubstep
StatiQ Production
Watch out for this guy this year!
My name is Rick Mitchell, stage name: StatiQ Dj and I represent the dub step/ drum and bass and break beat world. My childhood was revolved around music, in almost every aspect. My father was a radio Dj with music knowledge that gave scholars a challenge.(Jordan Mitchell). My oldest brother has a band by the name ” Katagory V” and has been studying music/theory for over 2 decades, making him one of my personal favorite music writers.
Production has become an overwhelming hobby that has consumed my music soul. I produce dub-step/mid-tempo/drum and bass and anything with a broken beat. I have made multiple remixes not for club but to show respect to those artists that inspired me to put music at my for-front.
My new productions are unsigned and always breaking boundaries on what can be/should be or shouldn’t be used in electronic music.

DrumST3P COMPETITION
There’s also still that DrumST3P Competition being organized by the Drumstep Forum .
The winner gets to appear on our forthcoming Generation Bass DrumST3P EP!
Here’s what they say:
So here it is guys the first production contest run by the site!!!
Rules are pretty simple…
1) The work has to be original. No samples that need to be cleared or remixes of anything. You may use samples but they must be duty free.
2) The song must be completed by dec. 1. this will give you about a month, that should be plenty of time ![]()
This contest will be judged partly by us and partly by you.
1/3 of the vote is based on you guys!
1/3 is going to be judged by the drumstepforum.com mods
1/3 is going to be judged by the Generation Bass crew.
Now to the good stuff… the prize ![]()
To the winner you will have your track released on Generation Bass Digi Label.
Plus you will get spotlight write ups on both blogs (trust me that there are a ton of views between both sites).
Also if you are a dj you will also have the opportunity to make a mix for the extremely popular dsf.com mix series.
If you dont dj dont worry ill get your track in the right hands and get it spun.
As far as second and third are concerned congratulations…. youre the first losers!
If second and third are proper and there is a good enough response ill work out something for you but no promises.
As far as where to submit the finished tracks just put them up and pm me the link. For those of you that arent very net savvy you can host a song privately on sites such as megaupload or divshare or even yousendit, there are a million sites out there you just have to look.
I’m looking forward to listening to the entries.
GENERATIONBASS.COM DRUMSTEP FRIDAY
So what do EXCISION, BASSNECTAR & DATSIK have in common with this post?
Well, they’re making SIKKKK DrumST3P beats together.
This must be the MUTHA of all menage a trois’…lol…
UNSUB
Talkin’ bout Bassnectar, he’s a big fan of our girl Unsub and so it’s only right that she opens up this post with a forthcoming DrumST3P tune.
This is from her second release on Generation Bass Digital, “Exhibit B” EP, which will be hitting the digi stores next year and trust me it’s gonna floor the lot of you when you hear it.
This is what we call, TRANSNATIONAL DRUMST3P!
Unsub – Rio de la Fuego [dub] by Unsub
INVADER FROM MARS
These dudes include our boy, Mike, aka DJ EKIM, founder of the Drumstep forum.
This is his new project and man I gotta say, this is very, very encouraging stuff. They’re taking a new-ish angle on the Drumstep front and I’m always happy to hear that. So methinks, they’re a name to watch out for.
Here’s what they say about themselves:
The invaders from mars are here and ready to kill any dancefloor!!!
When cleveland underground house legend digital bill and south florida ragga up and comer dj ekim met years ago in cleveland they instantly got along and started to make music right away.
Over the years they collaborated on different mixes and tunes. now that their musical careers have finally lined up so that they can concentrate on one single project they jumped on the chance and invaders from mars was born.
Both of these djs/producers are killers on their own and the music that they have been making so far is some of the most intense peak hour stuff out there with many more tracks and dj sets on the way.
Whoa!-Invaders From Mars by INVADERS FROM MARS!!!

BONG DUBSTEP

Bong – Pluck DRUMSTEP by BongDubstep
SECRET ARCHIVES OF THE VATICAN
Some more Transnational DrumST3P but this time of the ambient variety!
We were holding this tune back for the next Secret Archives of the Vatican release but we had a major computer problem and have probably lost the original master file. So – we’ll probably remix it anyway, even if the computer files are recoverable. So, here’s the mp3 as a free download. Let us know what you think.

This time, he is who he is suppose to be!
DRUMSTEPFORUM.COM MIX VOLUME 2 IS ANOTHER KILLER!!!
I recently asked Dj Premium in a pm if he would like to do a mix for the series expecting a good mix but I didnt expect to get anything this amazing. I knew that he killed it with the production because of the tracks that he has posted in the forum in the past but i didnt know that he got behind the decks like he did. Not only did Premium bring some of the freshest tracks in the game but he did it with style. This mix will stay in your ipod and have you google searching all day trying to find some of these absolutely amazing tracks!
Dj Premium is carrying along the series with the same high standard as Dirty Deeds. THIS MIX IS NOT TO BE MISSED!!!
http://soundcloud.com/drumstepforum/djpremium-drumstep-mix-vol-2
Dirty Deeds kills it on Drumstepforum.com vol. 1!
http://soundcloud.com/drumstepforum/drumstepforumvol1dirtydeeds
I’m not generally one for reviewing mixes but Drumstep pioneer duo Dirty Deeds had no problem turning me on to writing about new types of Media immediately after listening to their first ‘Drumstep Forum MiX’ front to back… and then back to the front again.
I was shocked to see how many original Drumstep tunes were sitting before me, particularly our Toronto-based producers that bring instant pride to being a Canadian electronic music enthusiast, Brockout and Stickbubbly.
The mix starts off with a tune by the lovely Miss Lea Luna remixed by Dirty Deeds themselves and rolls into a Rusko Remix by Sub Focus, which indeed sounded very familiar to me already. After rolling through a few unfamiliars Deeds then throw in a ridiculous remix of Kosheen’s ‘Hide U’ and then jolted me at Danny Thunders’ sudden and instantaneous vibe-switch to an oldschool bassline house feel, and alas, back into those grimey, wobbly, epic bassface sounds that make Drumstep so very appetizing.
After many amazing bang-on mixes including tracks by grime duo Dub Foundation (another personal favourite) and of course, Crissy Criss and his infamous ‘Kick Snare’ track (another drumstep remix), I couldn’t help but smile at the #25 Tune, ‘Too Hot for Drumstep’ by Wondawulf. This is a track that ended up on my Facebook wall not too long ago by another Drumstep admirer and continues to be a choice tune in my library as nothing makes a Drumstep tune more gangster than jazz hands. J’Adore.
Big up SDF1 and Blitz on thier first Drumstepforum.com MiX! This one has already gone viral and I certainly look forward to treating my ears to many more as well.
