Artist - Bassobese

Up and coming Northwest producer Bassobese is capturing the ears and hearts of the West Coast with a fresh new blend of genre-bending bass music.
After six years of producing Hip-Hop and performing alongside acts such as KRS-One, The Wailers, Living Legends, J-Live, The Coup, Blackalicious and Heiroglyphics. Also touring with artists such as Rahzel and Andre Nickatina, Bassobese has shifted frequencies, focusing instead on making music to melt the listeners minds, while simultaneously providing bass to shake the club.
This is how Bassobese has come to craft a unique sound that may very well be a breathe of fresh air to those tired of the monotones of both the Dubstep and  Hip-Hop scenes. His latest album ‘49 NIghts Of Twilight’, is a psychedelic collage of electronic production and samples from old vinyl, seamlessly blended with cutting edge textures and booming bass. The result is a sonic concoction bound to burn up the dance floor, move your heart and full of melodies memorable enough to stay in your playlist for years to come.

Klone:”As a small child I was blown away by Herbie Hancock’s “Rockit” and have been in love with electronic music every since.”

Klone hails from a southern industrialist city, Birmingham Alabama, named after it’s UK counterpart and providing the ideal environment for urban expressionist music that is both melancholy, post apocalyptic and funky enough to move a dancefloor.

Klone has taken full advantage of this environment producing edgy music with synth leads that are both melancholy and pretty, sitting over tough beats and basslines that growl as much as they whomp and groove.
Following in a tradition of Muti artists who don’t stick to one tempo, Klone supplies four flavors that will fit right in with your 90 - 120 BPM collection.
Klone’s debut EP ‘The Push Effect’ is out on promo and exclusive rounds now and will be available everywhere in June 2009.

Grabbing his first turntables around 1999 being really into  breaks, electro then garage and progressive breaks and then developing a growing love of glitchy breaks and dubstep. Klone also draws on influences from early techno 91′-92′era (Altern 8, Prodigy, Moby, Acen, Eon, KLF, Apotheosis) and BASS driven music like Dynamix II & Magic Mike.

Keep your ears peeled for a lot more from Klone in the near future.
