Heavyweight business.

The root, the source, the space, the frequency.

MALA is rarely seen in Toronto, even though he is a dubstep originator and arguably his sound is the original sound of the genre. Backed by the 40 Hz soundsystem.

An exposition of riddims created by KW’s basement producers, presented by KW’s central Rap figures. Hip Hop is alive and beatmaking is at its heart. Listen to Street Hop (Thursday night, midnight-4:20 on 100.3 SoundFM, http://soundfm.ca/listen) for more info.

HATCHA, N-TYPE, CRAZY-D. No, this is not London UK, this is LONDON ON! These men are some of the founding fathers of what we know as Dubstep today. Hatcha, mentor to Benga, Skream and everyone else, is one of the first DJs to bring garage/dub to North America. It’s Joe Nice (Baltimore) that first heard this new UK sound from Hatcha in the early 2000s. His dubplate connections know no bounds. This is a rare opportunity to be in the presence of a master.

Reach early to hear one of Canada’s fastest rising dubmasters, DJ ANTHOLOGIC.

Man like DISTANCE, original dubstep foundation coming to London Ontario.

It’s time to celebrate everything we’ve done over the past 12 years. Expect Pressure Drop vibes x10. We have DBRIDGE coming to Waterloo for this!

Here we go again! The sound systems and visual productions at this festival are legendary. Centering on Techno and related sounds and associated technology, MUTEK is an electronic music fan’s delight with Live PA, Audiovisual and DJ performances from the worlds most fwd artists. There are also usually workshops, like Ableton Live, and the latest product demos, like Serato and Roland. Montreal does it like no other.
