DJ Vela (Dangerous Drums Berlin): “Great Sound!”
Ale Fillman (www.dirtycircuitrecords.com)” wickid bass biz! big up from KIEVBASS!.”
Jackie Onassid (92.9 (2NCR) River FM, www.2ncr.org.au, Australia): A bombastic, epic feel reminiscent of squatters’ thrash punk rock crossed over with - again -a bit of early trance…although not too much of a fan of dark dubstep and finding the ‘conspiracist’ lyrics a bit dated, I like the raw feel and will definitely give it airplay.”
Great Scott (Glitch FM, KTRU Houston): “Fat crunchy midtempo - highly reminiscent of the Glitch Mob - but really the style is an entire genre of itself that really needs to be explored more, so it’s great and fresh that Insaudible is exploring this. The title track “Corporate Progaganda” is pretty hard and solidly rocks it - a lot of the Muti influence shines through here. “Storm Therapy” is nifty - the breakdown there does it for me. Hands down, my favorite track, however, is “Dog Logic”, with it’s great groove and metal influences and hard leads that let’s loose a bit of Prodigy influence - something I’m OCD about and love to nom on. All in all - I’m very pleased with this release. MOAR PLZ.”

Artist - Adam John

Adam John

Adam John is a pioneer of deep evolving bass sounds, a skillful producer as well as an advocate of filth in the southwest music scene and a figure of movement in the local electronic arts community. He not only creates slashing beats and wild rhythms for destroying dance floors, but is also committed to supporting fellow artists of similar musical minds through his label Theoretic Records, one of the first drum and bass labels in Arizona.

Perhaps better known by his DnB alias Kid Kryptic, Adam first released his disturbing brand of stuttering stomps on the notorious darkstep/breakcore label Fear Records in 2002. Its success was soon followed by material for Killing Sheep, Hardline, Evol Intent Recordings and the “Get Up” bootleg through Camouflage UK. By founding his own label, Theoretic Records, Adam was then able to promote local talent as well as his own versatile style, keeping the electronic music artists of the area motivated, inspired, and producing dark and disturbing drum and bass.

Soon Adam dove into other bass-heavy genres such as dubstep and glitch hop, finding a world of fresh sounds on the more experimental end of the EDM spectrum. 2008 and 2009 saw his first releases with a variety of hard-hitting indie labels around the nation, including Tuff Love Dubs, Filthy Digital, Shift Recordings, Darkstep.org, Adversion and Zardonic Recordings.

With a new passion for the realm of the glitch and the stomp, Adam now dips his fingers in a myriad of bass-driven genres to create an eclectic, signature sound of bruising forcefulness, haunting chords and lush sonic backdrops. His expert finesse of harmony and discord has not gone unnoticed; Adam’s upcoming EP Moments is set to be released later this year on Muti Music out of San Francisco, an innovative label that is pushing forth a West Coast aesthetic of the crunk and crunchy. His music fits in well in this world of stuttering beats and explosions of bass, with sawtooth basslines and 8-bit sounds that are hashed together in a slight neurofunk sauce and delivered with an edge that is more hard than hippie.

Whether you are in Phoenix or Fiji, the growing, mutating waves of bass music love will soon be lapping at your toes, if they aren’t already. Join Adam John as he explores the depths and heights of the delicious bass-ridden beats, using his versatile talents and love of the craft to deliver a warm and warped experience wherever speakers can be found.

InaudibleInaudible Bio:
From an early age inaudible had a passion for music and badly tailored suits, the former being a blessing in disguise as, born with a speaker for a head, he was never going to get a job as a Librarian or Taylor. And so, for no other reason than to pad out his Biography and fulfil his love for writing about himself in third person tense, inaudible set out on the long road to becoming a superstar musician.
Starting as he meant to go on inaudible landed his first major gig at the Birth of Christ, after getting much respect from Joseph and Mary (Mary in particular, giggedy giggedy) inaudible decided to get his head down in the studio and work on his production for a casual 20 Centuries or so.
After spending such a long time away from the limelight inaudible found himself hungry to get out there and threw himself back at the scene with a whole host of high profile gigs including warming up for Martin Luthor’s infamous ‘I have a dream’ speech and playing in-between rounds 2 and 3 of the Tyson- Holyfield ’ear incident’ fight. Incidentally during that same period inaudible became the first person to DJ on the moon, Armstrong pulling some mean moonwalks to Inaudible’s bassline bombs.

The Realist are here to tell it like it is. They are the political party that doesn’t want your vote. They are the religion that doesn’t want you kneeling at their altar. They are the uncomfortable truth that you don’t want to hear.Taking no prisoners in their war of attrition against the superficiality and moral hypocrisy of polite society and popular culture, The Realist stay true to their name.
Part hip hop crew, part rock group, The Realist is producer, The Triplet of Bellville (T.O.B.), and rappers Kid Clever and Sinister Dexter.
Wearing their anger and disgust like a badge of honour, The Realist defy genres with their bone-crushing fusion of glitch-hop and electronica. With the power of an apocalyptic opera, their sound is characterised by heavy electronic basslines underpinning orchestral soundscapes layered with powerful lyrics and tortured death metal vocals.
