Boulder-based producer Ehren River Wright, better known as SoDown, returns with a thunderous resonance per his latest single, “Stand Up,” featuring Homemade Spaceship. Self-taught on the sax, SoDown is respected for including the pioneering brass instrument into both his live performances and singles. Dominating 2018, SoDown has performed on stages like Red Rocks, Coachella, Electric Forest, and more. Not to be defined by any one genre, SoDown has created what he calls a GetDown key- a genre atlas that coincides with a specific geometric shape- SoChill, SoGroovy, and SoHeavy. “Stand Up” is SoDown’s lead single to his forthcoming, debut SoHeavy EP titled Jet Black. Riddled with roaring bass and fierce drops, “Stand Up” is the definition of dubstep, giving listeners a first look at what’s to come with Jet Black. An absolute banger, this masterpiece echoes with a stentorian energy, proving that SoDown is worlds more than “future-funk.” This track’s nasty drops are stirring, feeding the beast within. Stay tuned for more from this unique Colorado musician.

BASECAMP - IN STONE (VALENTINE REMIX)
Music, RemixCommentVALENTINE is one of those producers that I feel firmly confident labeling as “forward-thinking” and this remix is evidence enough. A little while back we shared his raw melodic bass take on Kid Froopy’s “bb (four missed texts)” for Moving Castle and his interpretation of OWSLA signee BASECAMP’s “In Stone” is just as refreshing. He’s taken the haunting original in a new direction with a hefty dose of bass, percussion, and assortment of edgy and shiny synths. If you’ve missed this one, you’re really missing out.
ODD MOB - DOWN FOR LOVE FEAT. HELEN
Music, Original MixCommentBrisbane's Odd Mob has gifted us a very cool record that's ready to get you hype for the weekend. "Down For Love" starts even keel and vibey with chill bells and grooving rhythm behind Helen's searing vocals. As the vocal chorus fades with "Down For Love" the dance chorus snaps into place with jabbing synths, a spearing snare and an electric vocoder that flows our way into the next verse. Odd Mob has put together quite a catalogue of remixes and has also released some excellent originals in "Gassed Up" and "Origin". If you're not on this bandwagon yet then what are you waiting for?? You can stream/download "Down For Love" on your favorite retailer here.
