MIXTAPE MONDAY: Dubstep Edition

30 Aug

From the Dubstep Dossier to Future Grooves, TGRI Online is committed to bringing you the newest, cutting-edge sounds in bass-heavy music. Still, we sometimes take for granted the fact that the world at large isn’t as familiar with Rusko, Skream and the like as we are – even if they will be soon.


Seemingly with that in mind, DJ D Painter’s latest podcast – recorded live from Jamaica – is titled “Dubstep for Dummies.” Rather than a history of dubstep, the podcast is perfect for the uninitiated: dubstep of the moment, including remixes of “Forever” and “Womanizer” and a few recent essentials (“Innocence,” Sub Focus’ take on “Hold On”). Quick and to the point, “Dubstep for Dummies” is the perfect gift for that bass-less somone in your life.

THE DROP: DC’s DJ D Painter Goes Bananas!

THE DROP: DJ’s Cam Jus & D Painter bring the summer heat with new mixes!

8 Jun

Washington, DC is the new epicenter of the East Coast underground. DC has always had an exceptionally strong electronic dance music history, but for a new generation of four on the floor ready party denizens, there is a veritable plethora of selectors and producers to choose from reflecting the depth and scope of the new hottest locale in EDM.

If you know us at True Genius Requires Insanity, you know of our total respect for and belief in the talents of DJ Cam Jus. Cam remains an underrated but vital spinner and producer to the city. Ever thoughtful and dance floor cognizant, many ideas and concepts that Cam has explored with immediacy and precision without his knowledge have been explored by top industry veterans days, weeks or months after Cam’s handiwork has been completed. He also is a fine DJ for those who are fans of the initial generation of hipsters, those who enjoy deliberate blends of truly disparate musical styles as Cam understands how to bridge reggae, hip hop, cumbia and electro seamlessly, his intellect and trademark style showing most obvious in his craft. From his obsequious love of the Cosa Nostra Riddim to inclusions of Dave Nada’s Moombahton excellence and a number of other top remixes alongside yes, the Fresh Prince’s “Summertime,” Cam Jus once again sinks a sonic basket at the most opportune time. SWISH! (click here for tracklisting) (MIX AVAILABLE AFTER THE JUMP)

If you took a look at the lineup for our Michael Jackson themed happy hour on June 25th at U Street Music Hall, “Michael Jackson is Still Alive,” and were unfamiliar with the name D Painter, well, join the club. Formerly DJ Tru and down with the HipsterOverkill.com crew, D Painter is a bicoastal house powerhouse who has had quite the 2010. If he isn’t onstage dressed as a gorilla daggering lithe bodied dancers during Major Lazer’s set at Baltimore’s Bourbon Street, working with NYC’s Roxy Cottontail, or spinning at Baltimore’s Starscape Festival, he’s spinning hot, big room trending house sets not unlike the BLORadio.com podcast below in LA, making all the requisite moves to differentiate and advance himself as a DJ from our widely respected capital city. Dennis Ferrer, Afrojack, Moguai, Steve Aoki, Armand van Helden and Sidney Samson? All present, all accounted for. It’s hot!
