A$AP Rocky 's anticipated debut album LONG.LIVE.A$AP drops tonight at midnight. For those who can't wait until then, Rocky took to Twitter to release a link to "Wild for the Night." The Skrillex and Birdy Nam Nam-produced track is expectedly full of excited production, but serves as a departure from Skrillex's trademark bass drops and wobbles. Rocky is accompanied by erratic synth, which complements rather than overwhelms his verses. Hit the link to the stream via the embedded tweet below. WILD FOR THE NIGHT FEAT.

Ready for some wobble? Here is the anticipated (for better or for worse) collaboration between A$AP Rocky , Skrillex and Birdy Nam Nam. This is exactly what you'd expect from a collaboration of this nature, lots of volume and buzzing dub-step. And besides "Fuckin' Problems", this is probably the most radio-ready single on Rocky's upcoming album. "Wild For The Night" isn't exactly our favorite song off the full-length, though, but it will most certainly help this Harlem MC reach new markets when this major label debut hits stores on Jan. 15. Head over to Soundcloud [...]

The EP will be the group's second project on Skrillex 's OWSLA , due out January 22. [...]

Never satisfied with the status quo, Skrillex 's OWSLA label continues to surface new and exciting talent in the world of dubstep and electro. Next up on their list is the currently unknown production outlet Phuture Doom, whose name graces our pages for the first time today. Not much is known about who or what Phuture Doom is, its Facebook, Twitter and Soundcloud only just popped up in the last few days - could it be another Dog Blood -esque collaboration? Only time will tell. What we do know is that this remix of Birdy [...]
[top_post_splash num="16"] The rise of trap music from the underground to mass appeal is quite fascinating. With its roots in Dirty South rap, trap was already a familiar sound with the youth of America and as it grew more popular we saw it mingle with other EDM genres like moombahton, big room house, and even hardstyle. This chart showcases the genre's leading pioneers that carved out its evolution in 2012.

Welcome ladies and gentlemen… to part 8 of the bass music awards! Stay tuned for the finale, where I will crown the top bass droppin' artist of 2012! Drum & Bass was an interesting category this year. We saw a number of producers from outside realize the appeal, and blend the style with their own. This was a big year for genre mashing, and drum and bass was no exception, seeing it's fair share of experimentation. WINNER: Calyx & [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , RPM , EDM Samuel Kirszenbaum French band Birdy Nam Nam have figured out why EDM has taken off. "In America, EDM is finally talking to young white Republican voters," Lil' Mike, the tongue-in-cheek parrot of France's four-person former turntablist-turned-beat-maker crew jokes with Spinner. The crew already bring out hordes of fans in France and the rest of Europe, but have recently flapped [...]

OWSLA road warrior Kill The Noise finally released his highly anticipated EP Black Magic last week, and certainly lived up to expectations with his refreshing take on bass music. While dupstep has arguably become a genre over-saturated with mediocre productions that simply rely on the craziest sounds and biggest drops, Black Magic focuses instead on intricate melodies, infusing the tracks with a certain musicality that one often does not find in other aggressive dub creations. In an recent interview with Billboard , Kill The Noise, or Jake Stanczak, noted that he ‘spent a lot [...]

Tipping a hat of admiration towards Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ over on ‘Thriller On Acid’ by Fyor and the monstrous display via ‘The House By The Cemetery’ by Cold Blank, this 8-track Halloween cursed package immediately covers all future October 30th base [...]
My first experience of a Birdy Nam Nam show was an unexpected surprise as the French collective took the stage and blew my mind with their tag team delivery and bombastic live show as headliners at 20092s Parisian Rock En Seine festival. Though I hadn't done much homework about them before this appearance and did [...]
