Love the name, much better than the few I came up with.

Thanx mate. That was the hardest part for us to come up with, let alone agree on. 

Pretty excited about the first 2 interstate guest's, but will have more information in a week or so. Just thought we give ya's a little teaser. 

Sounds like an rnb/hiphop night with a name like that! :lol:

Still, it's interesting...

PS. What the hell is glitch hop?

I only just discovered the sound myself. It's huge in Melbourne (Glitch This http://glitchthis.com/ (http://glitchthis.com/)) and Brisbane from what I've heard. Artist's making glitch hop include Bassnectar http://www.myspace.com/bassnectar (http://www.myspace.com/bassnectar), Mochipet http://www.myspace.com/mochipetmasterponatari (http://www.myspace.com/mochipetmasterponatari), Edit http://www.myspace.com/edit (http://www.myspace.com/edit), Boreta http://www.myspace.com/boreta (http://www.myspace.com/boreta)and of course, The Glitch Mob http://www.myspace.com/theglitchmob (http://www.myspace.com/theglitchmob). Just to name a few.

Or you can follow the link to here and hear a little mix I did that features a number of glitch hop tunes mixed with dubstep. http://soundcloud.com/evn/driving-bass-mixed-by-evn-september-8th-2009 (http://soundcloud.com/evn/driving-bass-mixed-by-evn-september-8th-2009). The first 4 tunes are glitch hop and then there is a couple spread through out.

damn, live is like only 30 metres from where I live...

will definately check this one out one night.

Sounds like dubstep with distorted hip hop verses over the top to me...

Really? People like edIT and Prefuse 73 are miles away from the dubstep sound with most of their catalogue.

Prefuse 73 is in the Glitch Hop category?

Yep. Many of the Glitch Hop guys are similarly folk influenced. Unfortunately less with the passing years though. Love Prefuse, he was responsible for the best live set I've witnessed.

Ok… very excited to announce our Interstate guest for our first Swagga @ L!VE on Friday November 6th!!!!  BAM!!  :slayer:

The Abyss are : Boot [Terminal Dusk//Betamorph//Digital Mixdown] & Sook [Rottun//Betamorph]

Info on the lads...
Boot & Sook write music because they have to, they seriously wouldn't know what to do with themselves if they didn't. No similes, allegories or waffling flowery statements are needed to describe the sound: Badass teched out take your pants off dancefloor punk filth plain and simple!

Their sets consists of their own funked out filthiness combined with some of the most ridiculous dubs on the circuit from some of the most mindbendingly disgusting producers on the planet.

The Abyss have several releases out and forthcoming on some of dubstep's most established and fastest upcoming labels such as Sook's huge powerfilth tracks End Of Time & The New Bleak on Rottun, Boot's haunting Satellite forthcoming on Terminal Dusk & a filthy remix of Secateur's Metalizer for Brisbane label Digital Mixdown. They've also got a split EP forthcoming on Betamorph containing solo and collab tracks from both the boys.

Boot & Sook have had DJ and Radio support from artists such as Excision, Droid Sector, Triage, Garage Pressure, Sub Bass Snarl, Twisted, Dubtek, Dank Dealz, Western Synthetics, Phaded, Datsik, Sick Cycle, Innasekt, Suspect, Vaski, Paranoise and Current Value.

The boys have supported the likes of Reso, Seven, Balkansky, Garage Pressure, Mark Pritchard, Calyx & Teebee, Phace, Misanthrop, Raiden, Spor, Ewun, Gridlok,  Storm, Klute, Mark Pritchard, Temper D, Impact, Dose, C4C and Telemetrik,

They've also been regulars at many events/riots/paddywagons around Sydney including the infamous DSS Warehouse parties, Void, No Frills, Konkrete Jungle, DNBBQ, Suck It Up, MITC, Greenbeats and Inhale.

Strap on your moonboots Adelaide, it's time to spacewalk. Please come and support Australian Dubstep and people who make the shit!  :lighter:

Man, we're so pumped to head over for this!!
Got a ridiculous bag of dubs, and will collect (and write!!) a whole bunch more in the next month and a half!!
Our set from Void the other night was recorded also, will be up later this week  :music:

The Bass Nexus heads west!

I want to have Boot & Sook's babies, simultaneously.  They will play the bass strings of your heart with their schoolboy good looks and charm. 

On a serious note, we booked them in March for Telemetrik and they completely stole the show.  Hands down two of the best producers Australia has to offer.  Get amongst it people!  Make bass not war. 

is Sook of Sook and Distemper duo?

Yep, they've done a few tunes together. Distemper is one of our good mates from over here, and a mean DJ and producer in his own right.

:clap:

will be grand to finally meet the men behind the tunes :)

I downloaded that minimix from link supplied and the tunes are dope...
