Artist of the Day: RAMADANMAN



Ramadanman will be in Boston in 2 days! Bassic booked him at Good Life down in da Chinatownz, and it couldn't be better timing. Not only is it FINALLY a weekend night show for some excellent dubstep, but Good Life has just recently renovated their space. I can't wait to see the new layout - I'm sure it will be magical.

Ramadanman comes from North London, and has just finished up university in Leeds. After seeing Mala (of Digital Mystikz fame) at London's #1 Dubstep night FWD>> (at Plastic People) in April 2006, he whipped up a few tracks, got them mastered at Transition and released them himself online.

Since then a slew of labels have smartly released his always proper tunes, including legendary SoulJazz, Tempa, Fabric, 2ndDrop, BareDubs, ApplePips and his own label started in 2007 with college buddies Pangaea & BenUFO, Hessle Audio.


Here's a vid from his April 2009 release of Humber (Apple Pips #5):




Here's some promo mixes that you should snag as well. Chock full of amazing tunes - most of them unreleased - these mixes will definitely stand the test of time.

Kode9 alert

Wow, I haven't been this excited for a show in a stretch. His name is Kode9, owner of Hyperdub, and he's one of the brainchilds of all we know as dubstep.

He will be swingin through Boston on Wed April 15th, headlining Basic's night at Good Life, downtown at 28 Kingston Street.

Though I will certainly be at that show (also featuring Alex Incyde and SCOTCH 1), I am even more thrilled about Kode9's show the next night (Thurs 16th) in NYC at Love. Not only is he playing a special Burial set...but he will be merely one guest among a beastly crew of formidable DJs: Flying Lotus, Martyn, Mike Slott, Persuit Grooves, Ras G and my personal favorite Zomby. It's like a mini-festival where no artists suck at ALL.

This mega ultra gathering is all part of Brainfeeder NYC - Part 1, "a showcase for Flying Lotus's all-digital label" Brainfeeder.

If all of that doesn't make you wana cream your skivs, buy 10 tickets, and find any way possible to get to the Dirty Fat Apple, consider this: it's only $8
