For once I’d like to go low on the verbiage here and just ask you to check out these six tracks from various underground producers from around the globe. You’ll like the way they sound… I guarantee it!

Some of these are free downloads so be sure to click on the title to cop those ones.

The best music is grown in California. Good In The Hood showcases the freshest crops of dedicated Bay Area musicians & sound engineers, each carving out their own personal piece of the musicsphere. Read up, listen, dance & tell your friends.

I found Carling Ruse during my daily Twitter rampage, curiously stumbling upon her Soundcloud whilst adventuring online. I was immediately floored. Beautifully woven melodies sing throughout a spacey dreamwave soundscape complimented by dynamic percussion & a tripped-out airy feeling of nostalgia. With only a few pieces uploaded to the cloud, I was inclined to contact her & thankfully she agreed to let me feature her on CYV. Show the girl some love: share, download, enjoy!

For one minute and forty-six seconds, it’s all up in the air. Have Jack Beats abandoned that grimy bass sound that we see visualized in the dripping green slime of their logo?

Alas, they have not. They are more devoted to it than ever, fusing it with some catchy yet tolerable vocals from Donae’o so that even Swedish House Mafia fans will succumb to its craze-inducing, bouncy fidget wobbles!

“You Should Know” will be out May 13th on Columbia Records.

Here at CYV we encourage herbal remedies, Bloody Marys, and of course a daily dose of slap to aide all the aches, bumps, and bruises collected over your weekend.

It’s simple: Save Sunday is five songs, one mixtape, easy to play, easy to repeat, and of course download links provided for mobile enjoyment. All sounds get love so expect to find everything from booms to bangs.

Sundays never looked so good.

A new partnership in sound has emerged across the pond. The legendary Foamo and the slaughterous Rack N Ruin have united – and created a monster. This monster is both sophisticated and ghetto, mellow and rousing, ravey and beachy. This monster is Gorgon City!

Get acquainted – because Gorgon City may well be one of your main sources of soulful vibes and fat bass from here on out.

Check out “Odyssey” and “The Truth” in the players below, and also be aware that their remix of Santigold’s “Disparate Youth” is available as a free download here!

Two of my favorite demolition teams from the Bay Area, punching out their own chunks of the bass music scene, are the rattling sounds of Supreme & Megalodon. They each have had their own feature on CYV, here & here. They are back at it again with airtime on one of the globe’s #1 music streams, the boys have had their recent remix for Koan Sound rinsed out by none other than Brown & Gammon on BBC 1Extra Daily Dose of Dubstep. Here is a clip of the track going off, stand up Bay Area and support local artists! Repost this link and spread the sound!
