We continue our expedition through the German bass music landscape. This week on KONGKAST, we have invited a well-respected Drum & Bass DJ and MC combination from Leipzig – AUDITE & MC AMON (Boundless Beatz).

Audite is no stranger to the German Drum & Bass scene. With a long history in supporting and promoting Drum & Bass and Dubstep across the Republic, he has firmly claimed his place as a bass music ‘institution’. As a promoter, Audite continuously pushes his monthly event “Boundless Beatz”, showcasing a diverse sound in the city of Leipzig. With his DJ sets, he loves taking his audiences on a very special journey which also reflects in specially themed studio sets.

MC Amon has been seen performing across Europe alongside names like DJ Storm, Doc Scott, Marcus Intalex, Calibre and S.P.Y. to name a few. He is currently teaming up with the (Kju:bi) Crew to create some fresh new tunes, and lends his skills to this KONGKAST mix.

Many thanks to both Audite and Mc Amon for this wicked rolling set!

Kongkast is back this week with one of Hong Kong’s favorite sons in the Drum and Bass scene - ARKHAM (Red Label / Hong Kong).

One of the longest standing resident of Hong Kong’s Drum and Bass scene, Arkham was originally introduced to Jungle in the early 1990s while living in London. Having originally learnt to mix hip-hop, it was the use of speeded up breakbeats in hardcore jungle that resonated so deeply with him.

Over his 2 decade career, Arkham has played hundred of events, hosted numerous international artists and has produced countless tracks.

Happy April, everyone! While hand-picking fresh pearls for our next podcast episodes, we continue to keep our ears close to European grounds and have come across quite some gems. First up in the series, we connected with a prolific figure in the Dresden (Germany) electronic music scene – Noize Creator.

Noize Creator aka Stefan Senf, is the founder of local record label Suburban Trash Industries, co-host of “The Wickedest Sound” on the bi-weekly “Buschfunk Radio” show, as well as originator of many shows in Dresden such as the Laptopbattle Dresden.

As an artist, Noize Creator has previously travelled the globe DJing and teaching music production. He currently expresses his ever evolving musical style in live sets, that span a diverse mix of Noise, Breakcore, Dubstep, Footwork, and other weird electronica/experimental styles.

Now lean back and turn up your speakers, as we present his latest thrilling live set of 100% original deep dubstep productions to you here on Kongkast. Hope you’ll enjoy!

This week on KONGKAST, we have an exclusive mix from Andy Skopes (Utopia Music, Uncertified Music, Jerona Fruits, Liquid V / UK).

Having being introduced to his name back in 2006 by the Utopia Music label, with a release which was later made free download called “In The Raw” <Download HERE> , we familiarized ourselves with Andy’s music through out the years.
With releases such as “Jah Jah Man” on the “We Fear Change EP” on Uncertified Music (2009), as well as the “Call To Arms” featuring Mr. Joseph, but the one that really stood out is from his latest release on Utopia Music (UM006) “Distance From You / Reading By The White Lake”, which we think is truly one of the best release from 2011.

While you’re here, check out his SoundCloud for a Free Download of one of his unreleased tunes.

Andyskopes – Crime Scene [FREE DOWNLOAD] //

Many thanks to Andy Skopes for this deep and rolling Kongkast!
