Here's a sneaky lil download from our buddy Desto, it's called Bonus Cave and it's a doom-juke bonanza that he's (thankfully) given away for a download. Spice up your sets, deejáys:
Slated for a late February/Early March release, No Sleep EP is the latest offering from Finland's mercurial dubstep export Desto . I listen to so much future garage, post-dubstep and [insert other strangely coined genre here] these days, that I rarely seem to indulge in some good old chest-boxing dubstep, and this is exactly what Desto delivers. Accented with a cold melodious twist that transports me to the Arctic tundra, a blast of 'Monsters About' evokes vivid images of the outpost in The Thing (which is actually set in Antarctica, but whatever). You should probably [...]

С нового сезона The Wicked Bass расширяет свои границы на север и теперь вечеринки с нашим именем будут проводится не только в Киеве, но и в любимом Санкт-Петербург ! В связи с этим, с радостью анонсируем наш дебют в лучшем питерском клубе Jesus , который, собственно, состоится на этой неделе - 17 сентября. Итак, встречайте главного года - Desto [502 / Ramp / Noppa / Rwina, FN]. Desto по праву считается одним из главных бейс-продюсеров Финляндии. В качестве приоритетов для него всегда были хип-хоп, дабстеп, 2-степ, гараж, джангл, компьютерные игры и то, [...]
Heavily underrated Finish producer Desto has been on our radar ever since his release on Ramp Recordings last year. Back then he was pushing boundaries with colourful Dubstep, this time though, his forthcoming 'Makowrap EP' on Amsterdam's Rwina Records, has a heavy Grime instrumental feel. Check it for yourself...Makowrap EP Preview [forthcoming Rwina Records] React - Desto (Digital Bonus) [

Desto - это яркий представитель финской электронной сцены и клубной культуры Хельсинки. Писать начал давно, но настоящий успех пришел в 2009-м с релизом 'Disappearing Reappearing Ink' на Ramp Recordings. С тех пор были релизы на Rwina, Noppa и других лейблах, включая просто ремиксы, но все не то. И вот, спустя два года, он возвращается к своим истокам. 'Glass Clouds / Stay Strong' на все той же рампе - это эксперименты с дабстепом, которые с одной стороны - ничего новаторского и не показывают, ибо являются заигрыванием с хип-хопом и корнями стиля, а с другой - идут в ногу [...]
Compiled to drum up interest for the latest Red Bull Music Academy, this hour long mix by Finnish producer Desto is a thoroughly compelling exploration of dubstep's murky yet unmistakably lush depths. Featuring tracks from Desto himself, Tes La Rok, Girl Unit, L-Wiz, Loefah and Breach as well as a few new heads, I stuck this on right after watching Toy Story 3 and its darkly engrossing texture lifted my sagging spirits (first the beginning of Up and now this? Pixar is trying to kill me). Listen below and watch out for Koala's 'The Woods', it's [...]

Greetings once again from the hive that is RBMA Radio and all the music that lives inside us. I hope the first instalment of this series left your ears satisfied with tasty musical treats, all feedback is welcome. This time round I’ve tried to retain the nature of eclecticness and hopefully cater something for everyone, with beats ranging from mob deep classic to modern british grime at its best to the “post dubstep era” and finishing with a friendly and informative chat with Franz Ferdinand. So lets begin with a gent who goes by the name [...]
Bacon. Related enough. Dubstep has the reputation—especially in the United States—of being a genre all about devastating bass that sometimes sounds like whales mating, other times sounds like grinding chainsaws, and still other times just sounds like a migraine waiting to happen. However, to reduce the genre to this would be entirely unfair. Although represented more prevalently in Europe, dubstep usually incorporates stuttering, off-kilter rhythms, groovy synthesized lines that reflect UK garage and funky influences, and more explicit dub vibes. You might say that it's the difference between dubstep and [...]
Video unrelated. For all of our loyal listeners, the wait is almost over.

Grab your jackets and snow shoes, Finland's knocking out some heavy shit and it's going to freeze your nipples and shake your eyeballs like Jack Frost on crack. The country's foremost dubstep producers, Tes La Rok and Desto, have both contributed a track for a forthcoming release on Noppa and the pair are certainly formidable tunes. I've been an outspoken fan of Desto ever since I heard 'Broken Memory' last year and on the a-side 'Ice Cold' sounds just as refreshing and rich, if a little filthier. The mashed vocals, wide bass and rising synth merge with eerie [...]
Supra1 - The Fat! Club Mix 004 by Thefatclub on Mixcloud via www.thefatclub.com tweet
It's still as cold as a Nazi's heart here at the moment, so there's really nothing else for me to do except sit inside, cover myself in wool and goose fat and pound out...uh...massive tunes. I'm sure HxDB will be excited at the prospect of me in this state hypnotically swaying to his recently unleashed Sicknote Vol. 7 mix, an hour-long blanket of swelling atmosphere and bass, and that's exactly what I've been doing. Packed to the rafters with unparalleled ambient dubstep, Vol. 7's roster includes Phaelah, Desto, Headhunter, Djunya, Mount Kimbie and a number of others who have the [...]
Another month has hurtled past, and in the circles we swim in, it was a bit of a leviathan. Although we're only in February, we've already been swamped by a tide of fantastic music. Over the next few months, the water level's only set to rise - not only a whole slew of great 123s, but albums lining up from Actress, Scuba, Ikonika, Starkey, Vex'd and maybe, if we're really lucky, Mount Kimbie. For now though, there's more than enough to be getting on with. Your guides, once again, to the labyrithine world of bass music are Andrew Ryce and [...]
Noppa 005 aka Desto EP is out today. Support the man, witness how "Finns do it better" and cop the vinyl or digital e.g. on Juno. Blackdown : “Absolute Noppa!” Joker : “2 words – Goon Music.” Headhunter : “This one been a mainstay in my sets for months now, Noppa providing the usual sickness!” Nick Argon : “Clean [...]
Compatriot of Tes La Rok, Desto is one of the few Finnish dubstep producers to hit the peripheries of the international scene. Making music that sounds like Burial and Ramadanman have been dropped in the middle of a deserted metropolis during a nuclear winter, it provokes all kinds of futuristic reverie. Mesmerising, melodic and seriously addictive, this stuff makes you feel like you're mainlining essence of perfection. 'Broken Memory' is the b-side to the forthcoming release of 'Disappearing Reappearing Ink', which is set to drop on Ramp Recordings as RAMP027 some time this month. An unknown [...]

Para los poco avezados en el lóbrego mundillo del dubstep, del grime, y sucedáneos, habéis de saber que Martin Clark, junto a Mary Anne Hobbs y otros tantos elegidos de la escena, son los preceptores a la hora de decidir si algo es digno de enchufarse en nuestros cerebros, o por el contrario,...
