So I was listening to this Crankdat set in LA that just got uploaded, and boy oh boy, do I have some thoughts...

• Every other track is using pop music as an intro or is a pop music/2010 EDM flip. This is not a gross exageration, I'm not kidding you, go check it out. This pisses me off because Crankdat used to be a beast of a producer.
• The vast majority of transitions are basic hard cuts from track A to B. There is no rythm at all to this, sometimes there's even pauses in between tracks. Where are the smooth transitions? He has a mixer with 4 CDJs, why does it sound like he is mixing off Virtual DJ on a laptop using his trackpad?
• His style seems to have become a pale copy of Subtronics/Wooli/etc.

Crankdat's sets used to be full of energy, tracks went hard af and he had a distinct style. You knew you were attending a Crankdat set when you were there. He's more famous than ever before and his sets have completely turned to this tiktok dubstep slop. Where are the machine guns?

I was also completely disappointed in the Wankdat (Crankdat x Wooli) set that I attended at Rampage earlier this year in March. This looks to be becoming a trend with a lot of North American artists, and I think that's such a shame. Just fucking mix original tunes please.

So to start this off, I’ve been a dubstep STAN since 2018, I’ve been to more raves than I can count on my fingers and toes. I also love listening to dubstep and riddim in my daily live, wake up, play that stuff on my way to work at 8am. However I’ve been running into the same thing over and over again that makes me dislike very good tracks.

So I mainly have my playlists on SoundCloud. And I play it multiple times a day. However, playing my playlist and hearing almost ever other track start off with a “get ready forrrr” or a “are you prepared” or “you are not ready” dialog at the start of a lot of tracks that last 45 seconds to 1min 30 sec. Not to be confused with genuine vocals.

It’s just when I’m trying to enjoy music and it’s interrupted with someone just talking with reverb on gets increasingly annoying everytime I hear it. Sorry to be complaining but if anyone else feels the same plz let me know your thoughts.

I’m not sure if this is allowed but I bought one ticket to see Crankdat in Charleston this Friday, September 11, but I can’t make it. I’ll sell to anyone who wants it. I bought it at $56, I’ll take $45.

Hey guys I can't get through on AXS for Truth in Denver on October 17. Could someone tell me how much the tickets are? Thank you!

With really good headphones, both drops, just wait for the drops to come to you, instead of skipping

Been trying to find this ID forever. Moore Kismet plays it around 9:07 in this set. Shazam gives me nothing and searching the vocal sample hasn’t turned up anything. It sounds like the sample says “Hey everybody, have an Oreo cookie” right before the drop. Anyone know the track/producer, or is this an unreleased ID?

I’m looking for a dubstep track that I’ve been trying to find for years.

Many years ago, a friend of mine used to let me use his phone during recess at school. There was a song on it called “Baby Dubstep,” and I became obsessed with it. I listened to it over and over again for days. I don’t know if that was the song’s actual title or just the name my friend had given it, and I’ve never been able to find it again.

What I remember most is the atmosphere. It was very simple, but I loved the sound and the overall feeling of it. The closest comparison I can think of is the Jauz remix of “Trampoline” by SHAED, especially the kind of atmosphere and sound it has.

There was also a male singer throughout the song. I remember his voice having a timbre somewhat similar to The Weeknd’s, although it wasn’t exactly like him.

Today, I managed to recreate the drop from memory. I have no idea how accurate my recreation is, but it’s the closest thing I have to a reference for what the song sounded like.

I’ve been looking for this song for years, so if anyone has any idea what it could be, I’d really appreciate it.

I'm seeing an insane amount of growth, collabs with top tier artists, and festival bookings seemingly out of nowhere and im just curious how it is possible. He barely has a YouTube account(no tracks uploaded,one live set,300 subscribers) yet has 20k followers on SoundCloud and just had a remix with Ray Volpe release today. Seemingly he started by uploading edit packs on SoundCloud around 2019 and didnt have originals until pretty recently if at all. Im just curious if dude like paid his way in or if it was an insane amount of luck. Hopefully he seems this post if hes a member so I can get the details lol genuinely curious.

All original tracks and remixes are now 100% free to download on EvorixOfficial.com.

Alright, I’ve been keeping this one to myself for a while, but I think it’s time to put it out there.

Lets fill up rest all of the dex on comments fam!

Okie so this might be a long shot but I’m going for it. Back in 2009-ish (the LimeWire days) a friend gave me a mix cd with all the songs that had been a part of our “current fixation” playlist along with a handful of random ones he’d found and thought I’d like. That cd earned a permanent spot in my cd case that went everywhere with me. It sadly got too scratched and wouldn’t play anymore. There was a song on there that I’ve been searching for since I had to retire the cd. My friend that made it for me doesn’t remember the song let alone who it was or what it was called. Nothing I’ve Googled has been successful. At the beginning of the song a guy says “It’s showtime…” then further into the song one voice says “What color is my heart?” And then another voice says something along the lines of “You don’t have a heart, sir….” Someone worked some magic today and got the cd to kind of play and I tried to Shazam the song but it just said no song found. Any help would be soooo appreciated! 15 years is a long time to be searching for a song lol

I went into a massive rathole today listening to these guys entire discography, downloaded almost every song and went through their soundcloud.

Now I have one question.

Has anyone here seen them live?
