The ever swelling Dubstep scene continues to pulse from its UK heart sending beefed up bass fuelled waves across the deepest of oceans and producing new talent popping up all over the world.

Two of the most exciting new producers come in the form of Canadian duo Zeds Dead who have stamped their mark on the scene with an innovative selection of gripping tracks and remixes.

Dubbed “The hottest new deuce on the scene” by Radio 1’s wizard of electro Kissy Sellout, the boys are creating a hot fuzzy buzz of arousal amongst some of the finest DJs of the moment.

Their style is a vivid compound of many forms of electronica with subtle glimmers of funk and mashed up indie. Combining luscious and lingering vocals with evil sounding splintered synths and warm growling bass is the basic foundation of their style which is then beaten and battered with pulses of wobbles, blips and beeps. The result conjures up visions of malfunctioning electronic household appliances coming to life and wreaking messy havoc upon their terrorised owners.

So far the majority of their work is remix based similar to the way that UK DJ and producer Jakwob has made his name. Their rework of Blue Foundation’s Eyes On Fire is both beautiful and disgusting at the same time which works to splatter a frenzy of pleasure across the musical tastebuds. Lazy sounding female vocals over a tenaciously plodding beat with spikes of electro jitters and jabs has never sounded better.

Their remix of Massive Attacks Paradise Circus is a particular favourite. Here The duo demonstrate their ability to create a energetic rework of a chilled out track whilst maintaining it’s original moodiness and laid back flavour.

They have already been coaxed away from the snowy hills of their home town of Ontario to the UK where they played alongside Bare Noize at Sound Control in Manchester last month, lets hope this will be the beginning of many more visits to come.

Their Bi-monthly brainchild event Bassmentality alongside their Toronto peers The Killabits has recently took a surge of power as it moves to new venue Wrongbar pumping thick blankets of bass through it’s Funktion1 soundsystem all summer. They were joined recently by UK Dustep maestro NERO.

Underworld, made up of Rick Smoth and Karl Hyde, are probably best known for their 1996 classic club anthem, ‘Born Slippy’. The hotly tipped new album by the legendary production duo will feature some hugely special collaborations with a number of producers from across the dance music spectrum. These collaborations include appearances from the trance legend Paul Van Dyk, techno superstar Dubfire, atmospheric dubstep producer Appleblim and the glam-electro house DJ D.Ramirez.

Having written the original material in their Essex studio, Underworld then sent out the basic tracks to the guest producers, who in turn added their own parts to the song. In this way ideas were bounced back and forth until the songs were completed.

Another track from the new album, named “Always Loved a Film”, was recently debuted on radio 1.
