Featuring:

SPL (Portland)

Within just a few years, Sam Pool, aka SPL has become an influential force in the world of dance music. With a background built upon years of work in the studio and live performance, SPL has materialized his vision of futuristic sounds and delivered it to the world in the form of groundbreaking records and captivating DJ sets. In 2007, SPL went full throttle with his hugely successful record label “Lost Soul Recordings” delivering a slew of releases from today’s most talented producers in drum and bass. Since then, SPL has launched the already massive “Hollow Point Recordings” with DJ Roommate for a heavy new take on dubstep music. He has also released on the seminal “Genosha Recordings,” which has taken the hardcore techno scene by storm. While running two record labels, touring the globe, and producing various styles of electronic music, SPL continues to deliver cutting-edge sounds to countless ears around planet earth.

J. Rogers (San Francisco)

J.Rogers brings together a wealth of musical experience and styles with his unique sound. As a graduate of music studies in composition, conducting, and piano with a life-long obsession for the production and performance of electronic/dance music, he injects a strong grasp of advanced musical technique into his diverse sets of dubstep, minimal/techno, tech house, and everything in between. His recent Ableton sets feature rapid-fire transitioning, layering, and sample-dropping across a wide-ranging assortment of sounds. J.Rogers’ productions are no different as he releases track after track of genre-bending originals and remixes, supported by the likes of Mary Anne Hobbs, Dubfire, Headhunter, Laurent Garnier, DZ, Stacey Pullen, XI, Paco Osuna, and many more. He stays busy as a member of the Surya Dub crew, co-founder of San Francisco’s Blipswitch.net online community, and labelhead of the Blipswitch Digital record label. One to watch out for in the years to come.

SDDUBSTEP.COM Exclusive Mix #7 by Searchl1te | (47:45) | 320 Kbps Mp3

I have been showcasing a lot of local talent in the last 6 podcasts, but I felt it was time to branch out. We get to see a lot of local talent at our shows… But rarely any stateside talent from outside California. I got a chance to chat with Searchl1te, who’s a very busy man in the Chicago area. Searchl1te has been making moves in the scene for over a decade, has been playing shows all around the US, hosts an FM radio show in Chicago, and keeps a full time gig helping the community. A pretty inspiring dude… Not to mention, he has some really sick tunes, and knows how to put them together properly. A proper start to showcasing some other US talent!

A Q&A with Searchl1te

by EshOne

What did you grow up listening to?

In chronological order, C is for Cookie by the Cookie Monster, Animal massacring the drums on the Muppet Show. Disco, the Oak Ridge Boys, Bob Segar, and ZZ Top courtesy of my parents. My first 45 was Eddy Grant’s “Electric Avenue”. Then tapes… Lionel Richie, Grandmaster Flash, Fat Boys, Run DMC. Classic rock radio, German techno, early electronic music like Edgar Varese. True school hip hop, Whiny indie shit. Industrial and noise. Jungle and breakcore. Kuduro and cumbia. Lately, all music in the dub and breakbeat diaspora as it travels and gets reinvented. This list is really endless.

What is your day job?

Director of the Free Write Jail Arts and Literacy Program. I teach reading, creative writing, music production, and I program arts experiences for youth incarcerated in the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center. Check out the site and some of my students’ work – www.freewritejailarts.org

Best party you ever played?

One gig I remember fondly was the first big party I threw. January 1999 @ a VFW in Morgantown, West Virginia. We packed 1200 people into that place…thirsty ravers, metal heads, indie freaks, my parents. I played at 2am in the basement, where all the jungle was, and ran ragga and amen bizness until the drop-ceiling panels started to crumble, the vets sipping Iron City in the bar caught the ghost, and the kids on the floor sweat through their pants. My dad was running around with a camera getting groups of candy kids to pose by telling them he was a photographer from “Rave.com”.

Describe your local scene:

I’m not much of a scene whore, but I can tell you that Chicago is SOLID. There are so many opportunities to get involved with music on every level. At this moment, I help run two radio shows (Part Time Sucker Radio on WNUR 89.3 Fm and www.Dubstep.Fm), dj out somewhere in the city a few times a month at various venues (Smartbar, Lava Lounge, Empty Bottle, Darkroom, Double Door, Rodan, etc), do big sound for parties, run recording sessions for musicians, am helping to build two studios, help run a label (Dubfront Records), do live collaborations (Chicago Sewer), throw events (Dubfront Sessions @ Darkroom). The fact that so many viable opportunities are available to me makes me feel like this scene is pretty damn healthy.

Where do you think dubstep and bass music is headed for the rest of 2010?

Bass music is gonna continue to stay LOW as it makes it’s way around the world. I want to hear obscure traditional music combined with the bass music production aesthetic.

Who are your favorite producers right now?

Maga Bo is helping to bring seemingly disparate elements into intense cohesion. Douster’s wobbly stuff is off the chain. Sub Swara is completely killing it with their musicianship and dancefloor sensibility. Wachs Lyrical tactfully merges the beautiful with the devastating. I’m always getting something fresh and inspiring from Claw / Trillbass. Kush Arora is a maaaad thinker. The Abominable Twitch, who is my partner in the live PA project we call Chicago Sewer, is a fuckin’ savant. Also, MC Zulu does collabs with many on this list…most any track he touches turns into a partysmasher.

DJs?

Chrissy Murderbot, Jeekoos, Dj C, Chris Widman of Abstract Science, Ryan Organ and Craig Monkeytek, Joe Nice, Dj Rekha dropped some hot bhangra/dancehall biz in Chi last weekend, The Heatwave, El G as he’s dropping all the ZZK family badness, m50 aka Area with the minimal techno fuckery, MC Zulu is getting into dj’ing and I can’t wait for his palette of tunes to see the light of day…all these folks teach me things each time I hear them play. Of course there are many more…

A few of the top dubs in the bag atm:

I included a gang of my favorite dubs in this mix….the rest are TOP SECRET bwah. Nah, there is one more that has been in nearly every set of mine for the past few months: Mochipet – Complex Players (Sub Swara RMX) forthcoming on 6 Degrees. Holy shit this tune.
