Euphonic Conceptions is at it again with yet another massive lineup !! Featuring some of the top dogs in underground bass music, this is sure to be one hell of a show! The night will be filled with tons of original and unique bassy goodness, each artist shares a similar style, but they are all very different from each other in there own ways.

One of my personal favorites for the last year or so, California based NastyNasty will be playing his signature 808 lazer bass style Glitch-hop. Jasper is a master of turning any dance floor into a west coast rager, i got a chance to catch him at this years Sonic Bloom. His new EP Poison Flavored is something totally different. Each song seems to portray a different vibe while still retaining an overall feel. You can tell each one of the tracks on the EP took countless hours of work and constant tweaking. Its sure to bring a smile to some faces this Saturday.

Hailing from Los Angeles, producer & performer R/D is sure to bring some heaters. Rocking his crunchy Glitch style, this set is sure to be one to get everyone moving. R/D just released a brand new EP this week titled “Bay/Crush” is a definite banger. With elements of epicness, ambience, and heavy bass this EP is sure to do great on the charts, sitting at the #1 spot on the Glitch-Hop charts on Beatport right now.

Legendary iLL Gates is known best for his collaborations with big names like Bassnectar, Mim0sa, Opiou, Samples, Datsik & Mat The Alien to name a few. Also a renouned music production guru, he does an Ableton workshop for kids interested in getting into music production and Ableton which has been said to be amazing. iLL Gates sets himself apart from his peers with his constant changing style and careful attention to detail. His latest album, “The iLL.Methodology” has been stirring up all kinds of talk. Its got everything a bass music lover could ask for on there, Dubstep, Glitch-Hop, Hip-Hop, and his take on the genre Moombahton he calls “Moombahglitch”. iLL Gates may be a master in the studio, but just wait till you see him take his mastery to the stage live.

Last but not least, “Ninja Tune Records” artist Starkey will be topping off the night with some of his original space vibe dubstep beats. Starkey is also the only non-UK DJ to host a radio show on BBC’s Radio 1. His beats are supported by some of the biggest names in the bass music community, yet still little is known about him. His music features lots of melodic arps, crunchy square wave basses, and ambient pads. His music seems to be all about taking the listener on an unexpected journey, constantly experimenting with sounds and rhythms along the way. There will also be local support from Denver local “Seied”.

If your looking to do something a little different this weekend, i would highly suggest attending this show. Its so great to see such a solid lineup of unique artists. This is sure to be a show that will hold concert-goers attention all night long. See you all there!!!

Tickets are on sale at Cervantes website/boxoffice for 18$, they will be 22$ at the door.

This friday the 29th of July Casslemans will be having an awesome event put on by Chicago based company Modern Mammoth. This party is sure to have something to satisfy everyones taste in music.

This is going to be a epic precursor for Modern Mammoths massive Mammoth Fest which will take place in Colorado in late October, so brace yourselves!

Jantsen has been tearing up the Colorado scene the last few months with some huge releases under his belt (including one with Bassnectar releasing next week) that has really had some heads turning. He is surly making the locals proud with his outstanding productions and energetic live performances. This is definitely going to be one of the favorite acts of the night for most.

Ghosthouse album beats preview by GHOSTHOUSE

Chicago based Electro Funk duo Jimmy Con and Chuck New are looking to be something completely fresh and unique. These two have been collaborating on numerous music projects for the past 7 years to create there musical birth child, “Ghosthouse”. There music instantly gives you great vibes with there 80′s style pop/funk electronic, it reminds me of the kind of music you’d hear in 80′s music when they’d be walking through a night club. Its really refreshing to see artists really stepping outside the norm with electronic music, a variety of sounds & styles is always a good change of pace for shows like this one.

Last but not least is Boulder based headliner Eminence Ensemble. Eminence Ensemble is a 5 piece electronic/acoustic infused jam band. Taking influences all over the map, these guys really know there stuff when it comes to playing music. With plenty of psychedelic electronic and groovy rock jams these guys are sure to get a room moving. This will be an awesome follow up to there fantastic set at this years Sonic Bloom.

This show will also feature support from many young and talented locals, including Got Bass Music’s own The Digital Connection. The lineup is as follows;

Eminence Ensemble

Ghosthouse

EDC, aka The Electric Daisy Carnival, is one of the largest electronic music festivals in North America and features showcases with full scale carnival rides in several different states across the U.S. including Colorado, Nevada, Texas, and Florida. Last year the massive was held at Exposition Park in LA and a 15 year old girl died from a suspected overdose. Insomniac Events has since partnered with IAG (Investigative Advisory Group) to expand their safety protocols. One of the many new policy changes include a mandatory 18+ only qualification for entrance into the madhouse. The 18+ requirement has definitely been a giant, positive, step forward for the festival’s overall look and community. Let’s be honest, music festivals and concerts in general are drug havens, not the best environment for a 16 year old. I’m sure a lot of people would agree that the crowd etiquette has improved greatly from previous years, and now that I look back on it I don’t recall seeing any gang fights outside the venue last night. Big ups to Insomniac for recognizing and effectively addressing a serious issue; I’m sure the new age requirements hurt them financially but it definitely encouraged an older crowd to come out and show their support for some of their favorite artists.

On another note, this year’s show definitely catered to the BASS lovers of Colorado. The “Bass Pod” was held in the main room and hosted Dubstep and Drum & Bass artists Numbernin6, Downlink, Sigma, 12th Planet, Noisia, and Datsik. 12th Planet seemed to be having a ton of fun while he slammed vodka and dropped tons of some of the biggest tunes of the year including Bass Cannon and the Skrillex remix of Sexy Lady. He went crowd surfing like 3 times and towards the end of his set he got on the mic and, in the nerdiest voice he could make, asked everybody: “In honor of Skrillex, would all the gentlemen, respectfully, place the ladies on their shoulders.”

Next up was Noisia who I’ve been wanting to see for the longest time in Colorado, although it was only two thirds of the group, they definitely delivered one of the most unique and grimiest sets of the night. The first part of their set consisted of mostly DnB and I was pleasantly surprised when they smoothly transitioned into some Electro. Towards the end of their set one member got on the microphone to hype up the crowd claiming they “heard rumors that Colorado is crazy for this thing called dubstep…” and the crowd went nuts as they dropped in the 70 bpm goodness. I have to mention how intricate Noisia’s productions can be, their basslines and synths are so full and definitely have a unique sound that is very recognizable especially on a sound system as loud as the one they setup in the main room last night.

After Noisia, I went over to the “Circuit Grounds” stage to watch the first half of Z-Trip. As always his scratching was on point and the stage production was phenomenal with two giant Z’s on both sides of the stage made out of LED panels. Over a ten minute time span I heard him mix Rusko’s Hold On mashed up with DJ Khaled’s All I Do Is Win, Bassnectar’s Bass Head mashed up with Ludacris’ Get Out The Way, and M.I.A.’s Paper Planes. Everybody seemed to be having a great time as Z went all over the spectrum from Dubstep to Rock n Roll.

Shortly after, I returned to the “Bass Pod” only to hear Datsik playing the exact same Rusko Hold On vs. DJ Khaled’s All I Do Is Win mashup. Towards the last 30 minutes of his set we were blessed to hear some brand new tunes that he claimed were saved exclusively for EDC Colorado. Two of the tracks were ELECTRO! And it was damn good electro at that. His last song was a new production from himself and Doctor P and it was cut short because of the new 2am curfew.

Finally, I have to give a big up to Feed Me who absolutely blew me away with his production and mixing skills, his electro and dubstep is hyphy as hell and brings plenty of energy to the table. He was a great addition to this years line up.

Overall this was my favorite Electric Daisy Carnival over the last 3 years and although alcohol wasn’t allowed outside of the 21+ area, it felt much more like a concert this year instead of just another “rave.”

Last week (4/20/11) I released my third free album to the public. “Collective Human Consciousness” is the piece of art that i have been working on for the past 6 months. The music from this album will take you on a psychedelic journey through your deepest human thoughts and emotions through creative expression. These tracks may not be your typical “Brostep” bangers, but it will certainly satisfy those with a hunger for bass heavy melodic music.
Thanks for everyones support thus far, i couldn’t have done any of this without the love and support from the family and friends of Got Bass Music (yes, that means ALL of you :])

You can download the full album here or download the tracks individually on my Soundcloud

Fresh out of Boulder, CO, these two badmen have been taking Colorado to the next level with their exclusive song selection including originals and remixes of their own. We had the opportunity to bring out Pillow Fight for our last “Got Bass Free Show,” which is a showcase of Colorado’s top BASS music producers and DJ’s. This last show was at the one and only The Fox Theatre, a perfect match for the hometown heros.

This remix pack is sure to get you moving and I’m proud to be one of the first websites to post it up. Colorado is the number one place in the U.S. for dubstep and this is a perfect example of how we do it here.

Summertime is creepin’ up on us super fast here in Denver and I am way more excited about this summer than any other. The mountains will only be open for another month or so and unfortunately I only made it up riding a few times this season. Luckily, all the people who made it up to Vail for the Snowchella (Snowball Music Festival) were blessed to experience the Zeds Dead phenomena in a unique and new environment. If you are like me and had other obligations that weekend you are already getting tingles up your spine just thinking about the debauchery that will be going down on April 15th at The Ogden Theatre.

The show is a monumental collaboration from AEG Live and, our good friends, Souls In Action as it will serve to further showcase their success and unstoppable ability to recognize new and upcoming talent. SIA was the first to bring these musical pioneers to Denver back in December and they wrote history at Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom, where they sold out the venue and helped build even more momentum to the rapidly growing BASS MUSIC movement here in Colorado.

Zeds Dead represents BASS MUSIC in a way that a lot of other artists fail to do. Their songs are influenced by classic rock, hip hop, EDM, and IDM. Their DJ sets take the listener on a melodic journey with their epic remixes and originals with blasts of energy that the crowd reacts to every time. If you are one of the few who missed the Cervantes show and Snowball then be prepared to be blown away when you see Zeds Dead for the first time at the one and only Ogden Theatre.

Support for Zeds Dead includes Omar Linx, 2Dubaii, Zeno (Sub.Mission Dubstep), and Nick G. with Sage B. of Sorry for Partying (ThisSongIsSick.com).

Holla at S.I.A. on Facebook!
