Bam… KONGKAST is 80! Thanks for all good messages and constant support from our listeners… It always rocks to hear back from you.

Yes, we are switching up our sound a bit, bringing more bass-heavy music from the dubstep territories. KONGKAST #80 comes with a deep mix from Cyrus (Random Trio), one of the pioneering Dj/ producers in Dubstep music.

Nursing his very distinctive style since the early beginnings of Dubstep, Cyrus is best known for his immensely powerful, sparse and sub-heavy tracks. As a main fixture in the UK dubstep scene, Cyrus has been pushing his sound across the board, not only being a successful producer and label owner, but also as pirate radio host on legendary station Rinse FM, as well as DJing at top UK nights DMZ, Sub Dub, FWD, and across the world. The desire for his sub atomic bass weight is constantly in demand!

The KONGKAST#80 dubstep special is one of Cyrus’ first mix-sets out of his new studio, packed to the rim with many of his latest killer productions… Many thanks & big up Cyrus for putting together this set for KONGKAST – Hong Kong’s dnb podcast!

Listen in and enjoy. Turn up your speakers – the louder the filthier!

Since back in the days, Zuju has been one of the pioneering Drum and Bass DJs in Macau, but in the recent year, him and his good friend N1D discovered an unheard genre in Macau called DUBSTEP” they quickly caught on and started experimenting with this new and exciting sound.

So you like it bleepy, bouncy, distorted and messy? You go wild over stumbling breaks, unexpected cuts and lo-fi edits? May we poke your attention with a bit of “Robocore, glitchstep, fidgetfunk, leftfield drum & bass”!

Our guest DJ & host of this week’s very special KONGKAST episode is the original German sound sculptor Martsman, currently the freshest breeze in experimental drum & bass! With recent releases on labels such as Med School, Offshore Recordings, Warm Communications having bagged him a lot of attention throughout the scene and beyond, the name Martsman has become synonymous with uniquely crafted and expressive sounds on the periphery of conventional drum & bass.

In KONGKAST #72, Martsman will take you on a swift journey through his favourites in electronica and minimal dnb along with plenty of his own productions. Vielen Dank to Martsman for putting together this show for KONGKAST – Hong Kong’s dnb podcast!

Download KONGKAST for free via iTunes or directly from here on our website.
