Sub City Sessions featuring Noah D

Dhruva — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 23:02:41 +0000

Sub Swara and Hellfire Machina are pleased to announce the next edition of Sub City Sessions! We had a great blowout night on New Year’s Eve and we’re excited to be bringing one of the top US bass music producers, Noah D, to the stage for our March 2012 edition.

Noah has been building his reputation in both the Dubstep and Drum n Bass circles since 2003 and is highly regarded on both sides of the Atlantic for his musical output. His tune, “Seeeriousss” has torn up every dancefloor on every corner of the world and became a full fledged Dubstep anthem in 2009 and is still being rinsed on most dancefloors. His music has received consistent radio play on many of the UK’s biggest radio stations including RinseFM, Kiss, BBC’s radio1 and 1xtra and has been supported worldwide by DJ’s from different areas of the electronic music such as Skream, N-Type, Plastician, DJ Hype, Dieselboy, Bassnectar, Glitch Mob, Gaslamp Killer and Freq Nasty just to name a few!

On the decks Noah D comes equipped with exclusives from many of world’s finest producers and his own originals, while always bringing a taste of diversity and intensity mixed in a carefully crafted style that is guaranteed to create a memorable experience.

Lana del Rey’s music and smoked out montage Lo-fi videos have been making serious waves on the interwebs for some time now and we ‘re definitely into the whole “sad core” Hollywood vintage thing she has going on. Here’s our take on her tune, Video Games:

Sub City Sessions – Advance Tickets

Dhruva — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 21:55:03 +0000

Sub Swara and Hellfire Machina are proud to join forces to present Sub City Sessions, a quarterly event kicking off on October 13th at Public Assembly. Having been long-standing NY bass music ambassadors, the two squads are coming together to perform and curate next level talent from across the globe.

In addition to their own touring and releases, the two crews have hosted events featuring a wide range of talent including The Glitch Mob, Bassnectar, Caspa, Excision, Flux Pavillion, Jakes, Zeds Dead The Bug, Drop The Lime, Chase & Status, Goldie, Hype, Vibesquad, Mochipet and many more . Sub City Sessions is all about bringing forward new sounds to New York and creating an inclusive, intimate and unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

For the launch on October 13th, we are very proud to announce the debut of California’s NastyNasty, with special guests, Joro Boro and Shakey.

California’s NastyNasty can best be described as a sonic fetishist. From his first single on San Francisco’s Frite Nite imprint to his most recent release on the prestigious Planet Mu label he’s established his own abstract take on contemporary bass music and defined himself as one of North Americas most unique producers. A heavy helping of heartfelt vocal trickery and melodic sensibility accompany heavy drums and brow-raising bass sounds to construct songs that both stand as listening pieces as well dance-floor wizardry. Producing for nearly a decade under different aliases, he’s shared the stage with a diverse selection of acts including; Joker, Ludacris, Richard Devine, Starkey, Megasoid, Slugabed and more. 2010 saw NastyNasty tirelessly touring North America, putting up a-grade remixes and releasing his first e.p. “Puke Paint” on Frite Nite. In 2011 He’s taking his live sets international, releasing music with UK’s Planet Mu and Berlin based label Robox Neo-Tech and getting down to work on a full length album.

Regina Spektor Remix

Dhruva — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 23:45:03 +0000

We’ve been dropping this in our sets for the past few months and now you can have it – our Moombahton-injected remix of Regina Spektor’s On the Radio.

CREEP Remix

Dhruva — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 00:00:23 +0000

New Tune! We just remixed “You” by fellow Brooklyn duo, CREEP, featuring the vocals of Nina Sky. This one is on the haunting slow-burn tip and we had a great time working on it.
There was a lot of homegrown sound sculpting on this one as much of the rhythm pallet comes from household items like soap bottles, cardboard boxes, coffee grinders and compressed air. Always fun to geek out in the lab.

Grab our remix below and check out the video for the original here.
Enjoy!
