LISTEN UP :: Reppin' Chi-Town on that Repeat Business.

Repeat Business, was pieced together by Mindelixir, one of the major players in the Dubstep world and the name behind Bass Church, which is currently considered to be one of the largest monthly bass parties in the U.S. The album is quite an amalgamation of bass-heavy electronic bangers, featuring some of the most soon-to-be highly regarded names in the dubstep world. Ghetto Sexuual, Elfkowitz, Psymbionic and Stereotonin are just a few of the producers who Mindelixir puts on blast with the release of this compilation album.

What got me so geeked on Repeat Business, is that two homies of mine, LOBOUNCE (Giancarlo Pasquesi) and STRATUS (Patrick Stratton) (aka GHETTO SEXUUAL), are featured on the album. Believe me, the music these two create together, which they describe as, "low end, down tempo, sexuual debauchery" and I regard as some of the best glitchy, crunk-nasty, bass-heavy, bubble-poppin, wobble out right now, is definitely worth its price; if not more.

Big ups to LoBounce and Stratus for reppin' The Chi right with their nasssty dope Dubstep sounds and always fresh steez!

Below, are three free track downloads and a bonus free mini-mix download. The first, "Keep Forgettin", is the work of Chicago local boy, LoBounce. The second, called "Monday Morning" is from up-and-coming name Spooky Jones. The third, is a Stereotonin remix of a hip hop track by People Under the Stairs (aka PUTS), which has been on my "Top 10 Hip Hop Tracks of All Time" list for years. PUTS is a group that transcends time because of their simple, yet addictive, beats and the undeniable lyrical genius. Last, but not least, is a bonus free download of the "Repeat Business Mini-Mix" by Psymbionic. The Repeat Business tracklist and links to purchase the album, either in its entirety or each track individually, are also provided below. 

Sometimes, like many of you I'm sure, I find myself hesitating to download music when I actually have to pay for it. But, since we're on the Dubstep, Chicago, and Ghetto Sexuual tip right now, I must highly reccomend that each and every one of you (especially if you don't feel propelled to throw down the $15+ for the whole album) drop at least the measly $2+ for the two dope tracks by my homies: "Sonic (LoBounce Remix)" and "Deep Breath" by Ghetto Sexuual.

Support the music you love!

Psymbionic :: REPEAT BUSINESS MINI-MIX

LISTEN UP: PLANETARY / STRATUS / IT'S A STRAIGHT-UP MOVEMENT Y'ALL.

STRATUS, JASPER, and their music, are pure STEEZ...in all senses of the word. Hailing from my hood, Chicago, they are producing the kind of womp that makes me get dowwwn; no matter the day, the time, or my mood. Their music is what I refer to as the "nasty nasty"; the kind of shit that makes you bwomp, and throw the bass on blast in your ride.

I have to give special mention to my boy, JASPER, who is featured on the track DOUBLE HEADER. It's mind-blowing, at times, to think about, but I've known this kid for almost 15 years. He used to kick it with my little brother on the reg and was always hanging chillin' at my parents house. Mannn...time has flown by before my eyes. Jasper is all grown up now and as fate would have it, he and I somehow managed to find ourselves part of, living and breathing, a world centered around the WOMP and the WOBBLE.

I can say with confidence, that those creating tracks in the Dubstep world, as well as those who are active members of this new-age counterculture (whether they be fans, strictly at-home listeners, live show addicts, or full-on community members), know the feelings that this music has the power to conjure up; the kind synonymous with those produced by hallucinogenic, psychedelic, and euphoric drugs. It is addictive, highly addictive. Which explains why the Dubstep community is growing exponentially by the minute; both in terms of popularity, and size. 

So, get yo mind right. WOMP & WOBBLE is where it's at. AND IF YOU DON'T KNOW, NOW YOU KNOW NICCA. 

IT'S A STRAIGHT-UP MOVEMENT Y'ALL!
