Well isn’t today just an awesome day for new music. This time, Stööki Sound is back with their own take on Keys N Krates’ Love Again for what is an explosion of bass lines and quirky rhythmic feels. From left to right the 808’s sway moving with powerful undertones of sonic overtake. The Trap based elements including the swift use of low end madness without being overbearing truly showcase the authentic bass infused Grime sound that Stööki is notorious for. Do yourself a favor and make sure that you have good speakers with kickass subwoofers to truly enjoy the raw sounds of this remix. more »

Seriously, Excision threw so much fire the fire alarm actually went off during his set. Memorial Day Weekend went off with a bang at Audio on the Bay. This year, the stage production was bigger, the bass was louder and the vibes were better than ever before. This years lineup hosted every type of bass music you could have wanted and much, much more. While still remaining one of Insomniac’s smaller festivals, it lives up to the hype of any other massive. I have to say, the stand out stars of the show for me were Keys N Krates. There’s something about combining live more »

Audio on the Bay, Insomniac’s annual Bay Area bass festival will be making its way back to Craneway Pavillion this Memorial Day weekend. As a veteran attendee of this festival I’ve come to expect a few things from this event: Top notch bass music, stage production, and some of the bay’s most lit food trucks. Previous years have seen artists like Martin Garrix, Audien and Laidback Luke, but this time around Insomniac is going for and entirely bass and dubstep filled lineup, with acts like Excision, Flux Pavilion, Keys N Krates, Slander, and up-and-coming Ephwurd (Datsik and Bais Haus).

Audio on the Bay is bringing out another fire lineup for this year’s run at the Craneway Pavilion. Despite only 2 days of music compared to previous years’ 3 day Memorial Day weekend runs, Insomniac absolutely did not skimp on the quality of artists. This year’s lineup is busting out bass like no other. I haven’t caught a Flux Pavilion set in a long while so I’m praying they throw down a mix of dubstep classics and new material. I’m also stoked to see Ephwurd continue to rise. They took me by surprise at Escape last year, but it didn’t more »
