Wu-Tang Meets The Indie Culture Vol. 2: Enter The Dubstep

Frank Radio and iHipHop Distribution are proud to announce the highly anticipated follow-up to 2005's "Wu-Tang Meets The Indie Culture Vol. 1." On November 10th, the newest and freshest sounds in underground electronic music encounter the grimiest and most hardcore hip-hop click in this one-of-a-kind album: "Wu-Tang Meets The Indie Culture Vol. 2: Enter The Dubstep."

As Vol. 1 sought to introduce hip-hop fans in general, and specifically, the famously large, loyal and diverse fan-base of the Wu-Tang to the burgeoning world of underground hip-hop, so Vol. 2 seeks to expose another untapped resource of underground talent, skill and artistry to this very same avid and intrepid fan-base.

The project serves a double purpose as well: many of the pioneers and practitioners (DJ's and producers) in the Dubstep world came up in a time when Wu-Tang ruled the international airwaves. Unlike much commercial hip-hop, the immediacy of Wu-Tang's sound spoke to many outside of the scope of the typical hip-hop fan, across oceans and at home. Their music and style helped to shape an emerging artform that hadn't yet defined itself. Now, in 2009, as dubstep continues to grow, expand and encompass more styles and subgenres, the Wu-Tang sound is reintroduced into the mix, to spawn a new and unique musical crossbreeding, that is greater than the sum of its constituent parts.

This groundbreaking album is trail-blazing the collaboration between Dubstep and Hip-Hop, with stomach-pounding, bass-thumping guttural beats, and gully, gritty and grimy lyrics that break into the next decade in the chapters of each respective genre's history. With Scuba, Parson, Trillbass, Dakimh, DZ, Rogue Star, Stenchman, Datsik & many more producing not remixes, but complex re-interpollations that include a veritable goldmine of Wu-Tang verses from the vaults that feature Raekwon, Ghostface Killa, RZA, GZA, Method Man, U-God & Masta Killa, Wu affiliates Killah Priest, Bronze Nazareth, Prodigal Sunn, Solomon Childs, Son One & more, and guest spots from Busta Rhymes, MF Doom, Pimp C, Three 6 Mafia, Ras Kass, Vast Aire, Canibus, Lord Jamar & many more, this one of a kind compilation is at the forefront of an emerging cultural and musical blend that is taking place on the margins of the mainstream, but will be talked about for years to come....

DATSIK COMES TO NYC FOR THE FIRST TIME!

I remember when two or three bass culture parties a month in New York was considered busy, 2 years later and the landscape is laden with bass, a revolution is taking place and I am proud to be part of it.

Man of the moment Datsik is flying in from canada to play his first east coast gig, dominating the beatport top 20 for most of the year with his releases on Rottun and EX7, recent remix duties for Wu Tang, Lifted, Freestylers, Stickybuds and blowing up dancefloors everywhere he goes, this is too special for any bass lover to miss.

NYC legend Dj Odi will be dropping an old skool jungle set on 3 turntables, a rare treat for the heads that know and an awesome introduction for any party goers that havn't been blessed by an Odi set over the last 15 years.

Originally from London and now living in New York, Hellfire Machina are fast becoming among the most in demand bass culture dj's on the east coast. An arsenal of releases under their belts this year with remixes for Wu Tang, Bobo Saw, Bukha and Gamma Audio about to drop as well as e.p's coming up for UK Trends, Filthy Digital, Rocstar and Twenty Twelve.

With a host of new releases and vinyl pressings lined up for the fall, this sound-murdering outfit is sure to bring the pressure to the dance floor.
