Sweet Inspiration


Hey troops!

So it seems absolutely everyone entered the U&A Recordings remix competition last month and the winners were announced, Jeff T's entry winning overall, but all the finalist's entries were fantastic.

As it goes both Dirty Basement & Digital Stitch also entered the competition, neither of which made the final six. However on the plus side it does mean to free downloads for you.

So Cruel


We (Dirty Basement) have finished our first collaboration with the lovely Baby Taylor. The song originally started off as a Electro House track but after recording the vocals we thought it would sound good as a Dubstep track too. We stripped it down and started building it as a Dubstep track, which we actually ended up finishing before the original mix.

Here are both the mixes on Soundcloud:

Dirty Basement & Baby Taylor - So Cruel (Original Mix) by dirtybasement

Dirty Basement & Baby Taylor - So Cruel (Dubstep Mix) by dirtybasement

Comments appreciated.

If you're enjoying what you're hearing, you may be happy to hear that we will be working on more tracks with her soon!

I know it's been a loooooooong time since we posted but we have been busy busy boys!
We have lots of new music and even our 1st music video to hit you with soon, so gonna get the blog action on the go properly now.

On the topic of new music we have to tell you about this awesome new compilation showcasing some of Glasgow's up coming dance producers & musicians.



Heartbeats - First Pulse (Download Here)


1. Peace - Sleeper
2. B.Tone - Damen
3. Mausr - Eden of Noise
4. Dirty Basement - Sugar Rush
5. Barrientos - Breathe (Original Mix)
6. Kabur - Actualise
7. Rob Etherson & Peeko - OVR Kill
8. ESQ - Little Shark
9. Megamegaman - Dead or Alive
10. Mia Dora - Pornstars With Absent Fathers
11. Kid Robotik - Back The Fuck Off


All track are full length and DJ friendly, you can download for free and it'll also be on sale at selected events around Glasgow.  I'm sure it will be available at the next Synth night

With the buzz about this album there is already plans for the follow up. The follow up is going to contain the same artists all remixing one of each other's tunes. Not sure on the full line up, however I can tell you we will be remixing Kid Robotik and will be getting remixed by B.Tone.

A lot of people have been describing Heartbeats as the 1st Glasgow up & coming producers album, however 2 years ago, when we 1st started making tunes, i was asked by a friend Bobby Casa to help him compile and album of Glasgow producers for a compilation CD called 'House It Going?' for his final project at Uni. He selected a range of artists he wanted on the album & i recommended a few too, then i mixed them together and Bobby had the CD pressed and sold around Glasgow record shops and online. Sadly I dont think it was a big seller however I know Bobby received an A for his project & presentation.

It's interesting to listen to the two compilation and hear how the Glasgow sound has changed in the past two and a bit years. Yes the albums were compiled by different people, so different artists and tracks were picked by both. However two years ago the only people i knew of playing dubstep in Glasgow were Mungo's HiFi & Fortified Sessions, but it was definitely on the up. Back then we were running *Diversion* and there was a lot of quality house & techno around instead, not that there isn't still, but there is definitely a wider range of music on offer these days.

ANYWHOOOO.... LESS CHAT, MORE NOISE:
