DJ Madd - Blank Space EP [Black Box]



Black Box is set to release a new EP by Hungarian producer, DJ Madd. Black Box has consistently been one of my favourite labels since it's first release with two other labels in the Black Box family, Box Clever and Black Boxxx. They are bringing bass heavy dubstep to the masses.

Release will be soon, so keep your eyes pealed to online record stores!

Good times.

Hey, I ain't posted in over a week so sorry about that. But shit is going good, finally. Haha.

Got myself some Technics 1210 which are great. I have a pair of Shure Whitelabel styli and carts on which sound great too! Will have to take a picture of my set up sometime and post it up. :)

I've finished my last exam which feels like a relief as I've had a really tough couple of months! Been quite ill and with exams and assignments coming left, right and centre. It's been pretty shit!

I have an MRI scan today too which will hopefully find out what is wrong with me! Interesting!

Anyways, I'm in a fairly good mood so think I'll enjoy it while it lasts. :)

Peace and love. xox

Weekend Nachos - Worthless [Relapse/Deep Six]


First non-dubstep music related post. Weekend Nachos are releasing their third LP soon, set to drop on Relapse (cd/digital) and Deep Six (vinyl). I know I'll definitely be copping the vinyl release, Deep Six is a great label!

I've had a listen and this is the usual heavy hitting affair that I've come to expect from Weekend Nachos. Fast hardcore punk with unbelievably heavy sludge moments. Big up! Also shout to The Afternoon Gentlemen who are from Leeds and will be doing a US tour with them. Nice going.

You can stream the record HERE!

Silkie - City Limits Vol. 2 [Deep Medi]

Vivek - Eyes Down [Deep Medi]




It's almost here! Vivek's next EP which is being released on my favourite label, Deep Medi. Mala's imprint serves as the shining light leading all other labels through dark times of 'brostep' and Dubstep commercialisation and with releases being popped out monthly (were expecting Eyes Down and Pinch - Swish this May!), it only furthers Mala's standing as the godfather of Dubstep.

Tracklist:

V.I.V.E.K - The Big Bang
V.I.V.E.K - Spread Love
V.I.V.E.K - Sirens
V.I.V.E.K - Eyes Down

New mix by myself



My recent mix which is more on a darker dubstep tip. Vinyl only. Features tracks from DJ Madd, Kryptic Minds, Loefah, Addison Groove and Boddika.

I know it's sketchy in some places but cheap decks, plus only been doing it half a year but had a lot of fun doing this! Let me know what you think!

Blawan - Getting Me Down [White Label]




















Really looking forward to this release.

Skream - Skream EP [Test Press, Disfigured Dubz]



Managed to bag a test press copy of the new Skream EP. Last time I saw Skream his set definitely wasn't what I enjoyed and while I don't like the hardcore influced 'Hats Off'. 'Heavy Hitter', 'Seasick' and 'Rigging' are some serious tunes in the dance. Always reminds me of Outlook 2010, Hatcha b2b Skream in Mungo's.

Good double pack, worthwhile purchase.

Welcome to my blog

Hey. Welcome to my blog, A Bleak Future. I am guessing most people know what this blog will be about an' that but if you have no idea. Pretty much going to be posting stuff like mixes, music, art and life. Usual stuff us people in our early 20's like to talk about.

Peace.
