* BASS SCIENCE * - Tokyo/London/Tahoe
1320 Rec / Made In Glitch / Seclusiasis

http://www.facebook.com/BassScience
https://soundcloud.com/bass-science
http://madeinglitch.com/artist/bass-science/
The eve of the apocalypse brings a new era for Bass Science. An electronic production unit whose beats bounce on the cusp of the future, Bass Science creates diverse productions that are lit with innovation and laden with the low end for a fresh and far-reaching musical experience.

Bass Science is Mattb, a prolific producer whose eclectic sound has been cultivated from a wide range of influences, from his homes in London and Japan to Los Angeles, and many places between. Also the brains behind the record label Made In Glitch, Mattb is a beat pioneer who has made powerful contributions to Japan’s glitch hop scene as well as the global bass music movement. The newest sounds from Bass Science encompass this divergent world, fusing glitch hop, IDM and dub into a heady electronic blend that iilluminates brainwaves and fires the dance floor into action.

From filthy, floor-slapping bangers to fast-hitting funk and deep, dubby mind-benders, Bass Science has won fans worldwide as well as the support of such
tastemakers as Mary Anne Hobbs and Annie Nightingale. Touring through Asia, Europe and the U.S. at both large festivals and influential club nights.

In 2007 Mattb.founded MadeInGlitch, the label collective started producing successful parties throughout Tokyo,bringing international artists to Japan such as edIT (Glitch Mob), Megasoid, and Mochipet.

Made In Glitch can be without a question regarded as one of the first and most influential record label dealing with bass music: over the years the label released music produced by artists such as Salva, Bass Science, Nasty Nasty, Ill Gates, Unlimited Gravity, Gladkill, Samples, DEV79.

Mattb has been working in the advertising for the Music Industry since 2003 providing project management and production music for Oakley Sportwear, Mizuho Corporate Bank, The american Motorcycle Association, Yamaha, Pegeout Japan, amongst others, collaborating also with Bruce Dunlop Associates in Sydney on the award/winning Legends Are Born FIFA WORLD CUP 2006 promotional campaign for Starhub Television Asia. This very last project included music production and sound designing for a series of seven commericals and won several collaborative awards including the PROMAX ASIA BEST IDENT and BEST ANIMATION awards in 2005 . During 2008/2009 Mattb worked with Square Enix on an official Final Fantasy Remix project

Over the past years he has dazzled crowds at distinguished festivals and clubs from the United Kingdom’s Glade Festival to Los Angeles’s Low End Theory, with gigs spanning China, Japan, Europe and US and Canada along with sharing stages with STS9, Flying Lotus, Nosaj Thing, Elliot Lipp, edIT, Zeds Dead, Eoto, Mochipet, Robot Koch, SI-BEGG, Richrad Devine and Hatcha.

*MC JAMALSKI* - New York City
[Sony] [Roughneck Reality]

JAMALSKI w/ S-DOOBIE
www.facebook.com/pages/MC-JAMALSKI/17802105996
www.soundcloud.com/jamalski-1

Jamalski, agitator since 1991. This is not a marketing slogan. Who else but this MC born in New York City can boast about driving BPM counters crazy, making clubbers and party people going hysterical and breaking the barriers between Hip Hop, Ragga, Jungle, Funk, House, Dub, Techno and Drum’N’Bass? From his debut featuring KRS One in 1990 to this inflammatory Ruffnecks Revenge release, Jamalski has always put himself above cliché, easiness and well-established genres.

When he talks about his vision of Drum’N’Bass through this album, Jamalskidoes not speak about what we think we already know: “For me, Drum is futuristic Punk-Rock, a very underground sound which takes its roots in Hip Hop, Dub, Rave scene or Techno from Detroit but also in Bad Brains music and from all the artists who broke musical barriers…I’m part of the people who don’t make music to please radio programmers.”

very time he holds the mic on stage, Jamalski brings an enormous charge of adrenaline to the audience. The strength of this new album is how well this adrenaline has been transposed onto a CD. This sound, the Sound Systems vibrations, the amplifiers almost bursting and the furious beats are all there.

The MC has surrounded himself by international producers known for doing neither polite nor proper: coming from France (Brusco, Kafra, Chakal 900…), from Belgium (System D), from Canada (Capital J) or from Norway (Future Prophecies).
Their sounds are as aggressive, electrifying, and without any concessions as Jamalski’s lyrics and flow.

This album is just fat. It’s like a paving stone thrown into the window of the music industry wanting to sell records like yoghourts to silly and disciplined consumers.

“I don’t have anything against cars and clothes, I just think that we need to call upon people’s intelligence and originality instead of pushing them to consume more and more. I feel like I’m making a battle. I handle a form of violence with words as a metaphor. The essence of the message is positive though: move to question yourself, to break the frontiers, to build connections between people and music, to push limits away…”

Some important dates:

1990: KRS One give the mic to Jamalski on Seven Dee-jay with Boogie Down Production (Edutainment album). On the same year, he performs for the first time in France with notably Cut Killer and Kheops spinning.
1993: First album Roughnecks Reality (Sony) is released
1994: Jamalski launches Concrete Jungle, the first jungle residence in New York City at The Village. He invites there Shy FX, UK Apache…
1995: Jamalski joins the club and rave scene of San Francisco which is at that time the principal home for Jungle in the US.
2000: Jamalski moves to Europe
2005: Release of Ruffnecks Revenge, first 100% Jamalski’s album since 1993

* REAL LIFE ROCKAZ * Spokane, Wa
Reggae/Hip-Hop/Afro-funk/Soul/Experimental

http://www.reverbnation.com/realliferockaz
https://www.facebook.com/pages/REAL-LIFE-ROCKAZ/341133972930

Comprised of past and current members of, James Pants & the Royal Zodiac, Mishka, Delta Nove, Groove Patrol, Son Dulce, Cadenza Collective, and many more, reggae/hip-hop/soul collective, Real Life Rockaz, have created quite the buzz, blending reggae, hip hop, soul, dub, jazz, afrobeat, reggaeton, cumbia, and many other sub-styles into a kaleidoscopic, truth-seeking movement through music to realize and reclaim our liberties, and to spread knowledge, wisdom, and love. Having only just popped onto the scene in January 2010, word-of-mouth success alone has ensured Real Life Rockaz over 150 career shows in a very short period of time, garnering overnight successes opening for, KyMani Marley, Collie Buddz, Gramps Morgan, Tribal Seeds, Rising Lion, The Green, Equaleyes, and playing festivals alongside, Clinton Fearon, Joseph Israel, Jah Sun, Adrian Xavier and others, and playing numerous fundraisers, tours, and throwing packed-out after-parties for, The Wailers, Steel Pulse, Midnight, and others. Due to instant local and regional success, Real Life Rockaz worked hard to accommodate fan requests for an album in 2010, but with a critical change in personnel midway through recording their first album, the Rockaz, had to abandon the project and rethink their release. After an incredibly busy summer in 2011, the Rockaz tweaked and reformatted "Bar One EP" into, "Mixtape Vol. 1" (Limited edition release, December, 2011), featuring 20 tracks with guests, Joseph Israel, Chezidek, Oren B Scripture, The Groove Patrol, as well as live cuts from numerous venues, and a few select cuts from RLR member's Z-FUNK, and Ziryab; sewn together on the turntables with tasty interludes, pull-ups, and cross-fades from Yochanan, resident DJ/djembe soldier. With their business improving and an unusually large amount of unrecorded originals, Real Life Rockaz are now currently working on their full length debut album, scheduled for release next spring. With the noose ever-tightening around the necks of musicians and artists within a failing music industry, Real Life Rockaz, record, produce, and distribute all their own music from, Good-EZ Studio, their own home studio in Spokane. As a result, the band maintains 100% ownership their work and maintains their shared belief in local commerce and community; ultimately, benefiting the band, their children, and an entire community.

https://www.facebook.com/UnderPressha?fref=ts

Pressha is one of the most versatile DJ/Artists on the West Coast and throws down a wild variety of sick beats with impeccable mixing skills, from tech house to hip-hop to dubstep to breaks to drum and bass to glitch/mid-tempo. Immersed in the party and responsive to the desires of his audience, Pressha loves to create a scorching dance floor riot, and you will find him in clubs and venues having as much fun as the dancers getting down to his blazing beats.

From an early background mixing hip hop. Pressha discovered breaks and was hooked on the chunky, dance-friendly beats, which he was soon playing out all over the Puget Sound region. Now skilled in many genres, Pressha is a resident at Noc Noc, Trinity, LSC, and is an established player in a dozen more Seattle hot spots and consistently is booked to play out of state spanning across the left coast and soon beyond.

An active member of the Burning Man community, Pressha’to the slower tempos and world music sounds of the festival has created in him a driving passion for sharing the beat-centric, glitch-hop sound that is sweeping the West Coast. This DJ’s talents are welcome at camp sound systems all over the playa and in 2009 was asked to play at numerous large sound camps and again in 2010 playing at Bass Camp, Tetris and Camp ?. All the while keeping his own home camp sated with brilliant beats from sunrise to sunset to sunrise, and then some.
Pressha has played along side Donald Glaude, Propa Tingz, Mochipet, Ana Sia, 12th Planet, Ill-Gates, Nit Grit, NastyNasty, Stanton Warriors, Glitch Mob, Simply Jeff, Keith McKenzie, Adam F, Bachelors of Science, Borgore, Reid Speed, Skrillex, Dieselboy, Bare and more. As a regular feature at Seattle’s Decibel Festival, this local favorite has been on the bill with Caspa, N-Type, Mimosa, Heyoka, an-ten-nae, Mike Slott, Megasoid, Mala and Mary Anne Hobbs. With several bookings a week, a full-time school schedule, and bookings with all of dubstep and glitch's heavy hitters, Pressha is a busy man. His mixes are a world-renowned and each one takes you on a unique journey through soundscapes of new and exciting territory. I suggest downloading a few today.

As one of the pioneers of the un-named, bass-heavy genre in the Seattle community, Pressha will most definitely continue to lay new twists to whatever sound he is playing at the moment, and we will no doubt continue to dance.

The connection was instantaneous, and after being an influential member of the “scene” for years, Morgan began to broaden his artistic horizons by learning to spin Vinyl. Starting out with a pair of Technic m3d's and a Pioneer 600 Mixer, Morgan began on the long road to perfecting his skills. He spent the next year or so practicing, when and wherever he could, before deciding it was time to play for the masses. Like they say, "The rest is history".
The next few years Morgan slowly grew and built up his repertoire.
Currently Morgan Westr is affiliated with CAPP Records, and the possibilities are seemingly limitless.
He primarily performs on the west coast, returning from gigs to continue practicing and producing diligently in the studio. Morgan is always ready and excited to bring those hard beats and bass-lines that you love to dance to.

I only hope I can give back as much as I've gotten from them".
