Big Fat Fridays -10-

One of the biggest dubstep hotspots in Canada has got to be beautiful British Columbia, having churned out heavyweights Excision, Datsik and Downlink. I'm sure you've stumbled across those names before in my bass-based Big Fat Fridays, and today I shall be featuring a few tracks from Excision's new album "X Rated"!

Now touring with a 100,000 watt sound system designed specifically to deliver an insane amount of bass to your face, there's no question Excision pushes the envelope when it comes to heavy sound. The fact that the mau5 himself released "X Rated" on his label shows the immense support his music has been receiving. The Album features close friends Datsik and Downlink on half the tracks, and boy could these guys separate the true bassheads from the infamous bandwagon bros who came to see the Skrillex band. These are the tracks that scare away those friends of yours who aren't intimately down and dirty with the EDM scene. But! If you're someone like me who lives for this stuff... prepare yo'self, we're goin in.

1. Excision and Messinian - X Rated

Big Fat Fridays -9-

Big Fat Friday's return, featuring my big fat grimey f*ck!n bass-heavy favorites!

Everyone's aware of Zed's Dead and The Killabits' rise to fame, putting Toronto on the dubstep map... I think this duo may be next in line. Gotta love this rendition of an old classic, it takes me way back! (just kidding, I'm 23... I don't say that yet.)



Basement Jaxx - Where's Your Head At? (Dr. Ozi Remix)

Like them on Facebook here!



Can't get this song out of my head! mainly that catchy vocal line... and the slick bass... it's all so great! I am appreciating Wilkinson's mixes more and more every release.

 
Jess Mills - Pixelated People (Wilkson Remix)


Here's an older track too, this is classy drum n bass.

Wilkinson - Every Time



Last but not least... I just took in a fresh EP from Vaski. I've been a big fan of his in-your-face heavy sound in the past, so this fresh batch of material excited me. Definitely check it out for yourself, but here's my first pick (also happens to be the title track) to give you a little teaser. I was especially digging those vocals from Audiodasity, also featured on the album in "Limitless".

Late Christmas Giveaways!

I was going to rant on about how my year was so busy and how I didn't have time to share all the great tunes I've been discovering, but who cares right? Bottom line... Fresh Tasty Beats is back! So if ya don't know... now ya know.

I'm going to kick things off with a bunch of free tracks I was VERY pleased to stumble upon over Christmas. Having heard most of these tracks live from their respective producers, I've been waiting for quality downloads to pounce on. I'll start with these two fine lads out of Toronto, who are no secret these days after pumping out so many quality releases. This name should be familiar by now, as The Killabits are only getting bigger this year.

Incase Christmas kept you too busy this, heres 8 Cray Nights, 8 days of free remixes and edits... Me like.

Wait! There's more! Another favorite producer of mine was feeling generous this holiday season and released a free download of 4 years worth of remix material in anticipation of a new album. So many good tracks in here, this collection is a must have! I'd give an introduction... but you know Rusko already.
