AC SLATER x JOKER x GTRONIC

As you've probably noticed, I've been on a pretty massive dubstep kick lately. Which is awesome because I love sub bass more than life. However as a DJ, the truth is that unless you've got a room full of bass-obsessed people who share the same love for dubstep, you're going to get mixed reactions and a lot of confused faces when dropping certain tracks.

I can't speak for those living overseas of course or probably for those of you out in LA or NY. However, I'm currently located in the dirty South where dubstep is still a very foreign thing - so this post will be focused more on "dancefloor friendly" tracks.

AC Slater remixes are pretty much always a go-to. I have no idea who "The Grand National" are, but this remix is catchy and contains a very low bassline that flows throughout the song. Pretty chill, nothing too crazy but definitely a track I wouldn't think twice about dropping.

More dubstep producers such as Joker have been remixing more popular groups such as Simian Mobile Disco who've just released their 2nd full length Temporary Pleasures. You know you're getting into some funky melodies with a Joker track - I like this one a little more than the rest.

GTRONIC is one of few producers I've been following closely. He definitely has a signature sound and has gotten play and support from acts like The Bloody Beetroots. He's got that raw, straight-to-the-point bass synth that sticks out amongst the sea of weak, half-assed basslines. This song is hard as nails and perfect to drop at the peak of a party to take the intensity to the next level.
