I was head banging harder than anyone at a Slipknot concert can you blame a guy when you´re exposed to something as crazy as his oldie Factory? -– I´d be lying if I said my neck didn´t hurt for the next three days after leaving this show. It seemed like the crowd kept growing as Downlink played other classics like the oh so heavy The Chopper. The Kelowna native shredded through the night on his four deck Pioneer system. Play this before your graduation to feel like the man. One song that I managed to catch is called Dukkha by Kai Wachi. I´m looking back at my videos to see all the cool different tracks that Downlink played, personal ones as well as tracks of other fellow dubstep, bass, trap producers. I´m happy to say that this show added a few to my collection. I´m still debating on whether or not I should upload my concert videos, I have HUNDREDS. Like most dubstep producers, Downlink decided to start his show with a few minutes of recorded ¨end of the world¨ type dialogue, ¨From the heavens comes hell¨ said the Hollywood movie voiceover guy that you see in every movie ad ever, and then it all nicely lead into Downlink´s new single with San Francisco electronic Duo, Twofold, called ¨Darkside.¨ You can say I went a little over the edge when I heard Downlink play his first track because I´ve been listening to dubstep since 2010 and among many big name producers like Funtcase, Excision, Datsik and Bassnectar was Downlink.

Sadly, I also missed Dieselboy, I know I know, I missed out on probably one of the coolest DnB sets in the Queen City. In respect to KJ Sawka, who supposedly ¨shut it down¨ when I asked a big sweaty guy about KJ´s set, here is an awesome picture of Destroid, shot by Faded Studios. If you don´t know yet, KJ Sawka is the drummer for the incredible live ¨bass music band¨ Destroid, which also features Donwlink and Excision behind the funky midi guitars with beat pads. I have a tendency to show up really late to a show, and unfortunately I missed the bad assitude that was KJ Sawka. It featured Seattle drummer KJ Sawka and everyone´s favorite Florida boy Drum n Bass DJ, Dieselboy. ![]() ![]() The lineup for the Blood Sweat and Bass tour was one of a kind. The British Columbia native returned to Charlotte to show the southern Dubstep and Drum n Bass fans alike a really good time I can vouch for this. Bass himself, yeah I’m giving Downlink a new nickname. Yet another beautiful Friday night in the Queen City the Chop Shop in NoDa always comes through with the sickest raves and on this particular special evening they brought out Mr.
