Sometimes when the standard just isn’t cutting it, you’ve got to take it to the next level. That’s exactly what Tom Lowe had imagined when he started working on his latest film, TimeScapes, a Portrait of the American Southwest. The cinematography in this upcoming film is in a category of its own, making for some unbelievable shots of natural scenery.
Skrillex ft. The Doors – Breakn’ a Sweat
Yes, you heard me correctly. Take a moment and let it sink in. The dark prince of Electro-Dance Music, Skrillex, has recently collaborated with rock legends. The Doors. We have the RE:Generation project to thank for bringing them together. Although separated by 40 years and generations of music, both have had led their own era of astonishing influence in the city of angels.
Once again, Sonny Moore, aka Skrillex absolutely destroys any barrier that gets in his way with his unrestricted style, and unrelenting drive to create music that incorporates pieces of various puzzles that were gathered from yard sales, thrift stores, and your grandmother’s basement, but have somehow come together to form a Picasso-esque piece of artwork. This reference is to his recent release of More Monsters And Sprites [BUY HERE]. Beginning September 22 he will be kicking off “The Mothership Tour” at PETCO Park in San Diego. Last week, Skrillex delivered this headbanging set on SoundCloud, and it would be a serious offense to deprive our fans of this one. Listen UP. RABBLE on.
They’re back. The Hamsters are back; and they brought it harder, better, faster, and stronger in the new Kia Soul ad featuring LMFAO‘s Party Rock Anthem. Even with such a mainstream song, its exciting to see EDM making strides towards more commercial notoriety. Other artists in major ad campaigns include Skrillex (Scary Mosters and Nice Sprites) and The Glitch Mob (Animus Vox) who were both featured in commercials for the HD GoPro.
Big ups to whoever stood up in a Kia marketing board-room and said, “We should make the hamsters shuffle.” Czech it out.

Kaskade VS. Avicii – Sorry Bom (Kaskade Mash Up) by Kaskade
Snoop Dogg feat Example – Sweat Wont go quietly (David Guetta & Afrojack Dub Mix) by ChristianInk
In light of Rusko’s performance yesterday at Extravaganza (who by the way needs to see a dentist…quickly), and the one year anniversary of theRABBLE last week, we give you…Grimtetime Vol. 1. Grimetime is hard to explain, it’s better felt. Or heard. But still better felt. Kind of like an electric orchestra made up of mixed-machines, transformers, gears, gizmos and gadgets. The real question is, is dubstep dying? Many would answer yes. Due to the influx of elitist remixers and producers who have recently dipped their electro-hands into the dubstep scene, we’ve seen over-hyped artists like Skrillex (signed to Deadmau5′s Mau5trap label) and others, emerge as well as receive criticism from the greater electronic music community for their lack of originality, musicianship, and “mainstream” appeal. The once underground music community that began in the UK has expanded exponentially, maybe too fast. The fact of the matter is that to the majority of Americans dubstep = wampwampwamp, over, and over, and over. And I have to admit, a lot of it is beginning to sound like garbage, but I believe the goods still exists. They’re are hidden gems, you just might have to look a little harder for them. Are we to blame? It will be interesting to see how the industry responds. To me, dubstep is embodied by its atmosphere – most will have to experience it to appreciate it. Enough talk. Here’s a collection to kickstart your grimy-ness off on the right foot. After all, it’s Monday. Disclaimer: faces may or may not melt. Weird Plate?
