Tonight: Bass Mountain Winter Massive

The place to be tonight will be the Bass Mountain Winter Massive presented by Loki Dnb and which features headliners TERRAVITA and SHIFTEE. The trio of Terravita is comprised of Matt Simmers, Chris Barlow and Jon Spero. They are patriots of American Dubstep and Drum & Bass, and have been flying the flag saliently for the crossover styles that combine the two. This group has helped to popularize Drumstep and Jump-up. Also featured onstage will be another exquisite artist and award winning turntablist, Shiftee. The mathematical musician mixes and makes a Grimey style of bass music and will be a surprise crowd-pleaser for the bewildered. This party is at the perfect spot for the occasional massive dance party. The Ukrainian Center is a beautiful aging edifice with surprising twists and turns and open spaces dotted with traditional iconography. This setting makes for a trippy atmosphere. Previous parties there in the past two years have been very enjoyable. 

When when you get some popular names in and learn from peoples past experiences with how to light and resonate the various spaces in the building, you’re completing the recipe for a barn-burner party. Many regional DJs, producers, and bands, yes there is a live band, will spit-up and sound out in each one of the featured rooms. Check out the Facebook event page for the full line-up and schedule details. There will be food and libations available of purchase and also some crazy features including a bounce house and a ball pit! The lights and lasers are going to pre pretty dope as well, and as always most exciting will be the deep pure sound from Tristan’s bassbins and SevenOneSixSound’s setups.

The Drum Machine Report

It's a trap goin' ham weekend here in the 716 as we prepare for Infringement to wrap up the festivities on Sunday night. Lots of cool stuff going down if you want to dance, in and out of the city limits. I am of course referring to the Bass Mountain music festival, which technically isn't in Buffalo, but is put together by the true crew. For a wrap-up of what to check out read below.

DUKE'S BOHEMIAN GROVE BAR
253 allen st. Buffalo, NY
The hottest type of EDM on the block right now is the Trap stylings. The marriage of Hip-Hop beats with EDM to form the reinvention of Trap music has swept up everyone and everything that is cool. Some have even blamed me for this union, but that's simply not true. You can thank T.I.,Three6Mafia, Nas, and every Indie loving hipster who decided to morph those beats into their own. Well what does this have to do with Toronto artists KEYS N KRATES playing tonight at Duke's? Well not much other than that their doing a great job of picking up the trend with some of the releases on their Soundcloud page. But Keys and Krates are way more than that. Please don't allow me to pigeon hole these versatile artists who explore all over the map of Dance music styles and pride themselves on performing live. They often remix songs in real-time live. Definitely worth the $7 to check out these phenomenal talents. What's more? A LOW PRIME CUT SENSATION will be opening. That's CUTLER, LOPRO, OPTIMUS PRIME, and CAMACIAN SENSATION as a quartet DJ group mixing on 6 decks and 4 mixers. This party is primed to pop off. Check it out.

The days have finally arrived for those psyched to go to this intimate Bass centric music festival in West Valley at the C9C.

Also there you can find the full schedule for what is a great regional lineup! Some highlights include a 10 minute 4:20 set by BIG BASHA on Friday evening, Rochester's PAPI CHULO that same night, and HOOGS ushering in DIESELBOY on Saturday. The emphasis for the weekend is vibes. Thanks to LokiDNB, Frosty Tone, Petsheads, and Cloud 9 Campground for facilitating these festivities. Stay safe, everyone going.

BUFFALO TAP HOUSE
85 w. chippewa st. Buffalo, NY
If going the country thing ain't your bag, but hair gel is...head over to the Buffalo Tap House on Friday for an all-day House and Club music event called Shades of Summer. Twelve different acts will perform on the patio from noon on. And the best part is that there's no cover for all this great music! Check out the Facebook event page HERE for a schedule of the performances. But with this crew you pretty much know what your gonna get: tight mixing, professional acting and sounding DJs from your fair city. Get sloppy, but NO REQUESTS, thank you.


Until next week. Much Love.
