No Pets remix of “Marijuana” puts more mary to the jane with some high-pitched synths and a thunder-rumbling bass. It may not be that over complicated, insanely sloppy dubstep, but sometimes simple is best [especially in dubstep].

Dubstep always does well with high-pitched vocals such as these, but Hooky brings a rustic-step that reverbs off the eardrums nicely.
If you’re still not use to “music” like this, get to – it’s the future of dance.

However, instead of just throwing out my handful of favorites, I went through every one of his albums and plucked the top ones. It took an assload of time, so I hope you enjoy.

This’ll be released on Simplify Records in god knows when, so take it in “hear” until then.

Not only is the bass placed & tuned perfect, but Jay & Yeezy’s lyrics are brought out harder than any other remix has – or the original did. I’ll be bumbin this for daysssss.

As many female musicians as we’ve featured on here, I rarely come by a producer, let alone a top-notch one! Now we get one that not only produces some heeaaavy electronic, but switches up her style every damn time. From dubstep to downtempo, ill-esha’s production is mighty fine.
One issue I had with her SoundCloud page is her abundance of clips, although a lot of them seemed complete. I’ve included some of my favorite clips at the bottom, now I gotta go hunt some of their full versions down.

And what a quality dubmix to put it all together. Figure has done just what I like in a dubstep remix, sticked to the original tune and made it all the more devilish. A perfect treat just in time for Halloween season!
[audio:Beetlejuice-Dubstep.mp3|titles=Beetlejuice (Dubstep Mix)]The 19 year old wonder does it again. “The Seconds” is nothing short of spectacular. As crazy as it is to say this already, this is vintage Porter. Heavy bass and house beats. Ever since his first song, “Say My Name,” climbed the charts on Beatport, people have been taking notice of Porter Robinson. The young producer proves that he can keep pace with the crafty veterans in sound production and on stage. If you haven’t yet, download his new Spirtfire Ep and catch him this month with Tiesto on their college invasion tour. BIG ups to BIG sounds.

I’ve been posting about these two quite a bit lately, so I decided to go over their SC collection and see what I could dig up. Wish they put up a little more, but still found a few quality dubstep remixes I haven’t heard before – though, I’m guessing if you’re into this whole scene, you’re probably familiar with most their work. To all else, enjoy! (as much as you can)
[soundcloud url="http://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/22305342" params="player_type=tiny&font=Arial&color=292929" height="18" width="55%"]Wow.. I think I’m a Sabi fan now just based of this pic ;) NEways, Zeds Dead just hit us up with a remix of her “Wild Heart” track. Can’t say I’ve ever heard her before, (is she big) but liking her voice with this dirty dubstep grymes. Also, wondering if this is just a preview – the intro/outro are faded in/out. Whatevs, good shyt!
