Mmm mmm mmm 8 )
Someone must have overheard my pleas to the bass gods, because my prayers have been answered!
Comin' to you straight outta The Bay is GruntWorthy, a Future Bass music label and the brainchild of producers Dr.Knobz and Carly-D. The label focuses on all sub-genres of bass music, including, but not limited to: Dubstep, Drum and Bass, Glitch Hop, Breaks, and 4X4 Wobble.
GruntWorthy made a name for itself among local Cali Bassheads by putting on a hosted monthly, GruntWorthy 3rd Wednesdays, which began in June 2010 in Berkeley and now goes down at The Blue Macaw in San Francisco. The event has featured DJs and producers such as: Stephan Jacobs, Samples, NastyNasty, NiT GriT, ChrisB. and many many more.
Okayyy, now back to my bass prayers being answered! GruntWorthy recently dropped an amaaazing compilation LP featuring future bass tracks from names both well-know and on the come-up. The LP, as a whole, for me, represents the future of electronic music...because I believe collaboration between artists/producers has had, and will continue to have, a huge influence on the evolution of electronic and, more specifically, bass music. will and is so good that I've had that ish on repeat at my house and bumpin' so loud that a friend of mine told me he could hear the bass from the street when he pulled up in front of my house. I truly believe that the diverse array of talent represented on this LP will definitely be hard to match.
If you know me, then you know I'm all about helpin' out and showin' mad love for my homies. So, of course, I have to give some BIG UPs to the artists and tracks on this LP that are special to me....
Samples :: I don't know Samples personally, but I know he kicks it with/knows some of my homies here in Chicago. What else I know, is that the kid throws down nasssty and only seems to get better and better each time I hear a new track from him.
Billy Blacklight :: Billy gets special mention because while I was working on this post last night, I took a Facebook break annnd what did I see? A new friend request...from a guy I've never met and had never heard of before then...BILLY BLACKLIGHT! The coincidence was just toooooo uncanny and too awesome not to mention in this post.
Minnesota :: I am currently working on an enormous post featuring Minnesota. Why? Because I have yet to hear a track by this dude that I don't like (and I've heard EVERYTHING he has available online), and I always play his tracks from beginning to end. Ohhh and did I mention he hails from the Midwest (represent represent!) and is a full-time college student in Cali? What a unique combo!
Carly-D :: I can't lie...don't know much about Carly-D, but y'all know I LOVE LOVE LOVE me some Mochipet!
Below, are Soundcloud and YouTube players that you can use to preview the LP. There are also links to free downloads of each individual track, as well as a bonus track that isn't included in the Soundcloud player tracklist (a remix by Energy Alchemist) and, for your convenience, a link to download the entire LP as a zip file. I hope you enjoy all this nasssty DOPE bass as much as I have : )
