Dub be good to you! KONGKAST #98 features dubstep vibes from Bangkok’s DJ Dragon, Thailand’s pioneering force in drum & bass and dubstep music.

DJ Dragon alongside close friends has been instrumental in nurturing an underground electronic music scene in Bangkok since 1999. Via radio shows (Channel V/ Fat Radio, and currently GTRonline and UB Radio), own productions and club nights, he has attracted a solid following over the years. And there’s no stopping him, as DJ Dragon’s latest popular creation DUBWAY, Bangkok’s monthly dubstep themed night, recently celebrated its 1st year on the scene! Dragon’s blog website is a good read for new and reviews on that.

For now, check out his dubplate filled selection exclusively mixed for KONGKAST #98. Thanks & Kudos from us to DJ Dragon and the Bangkok massive.

With the KONGKAST #97 Special we bring you a mash-up style mix from one of the most prolific deejays in the scratch and turntablism scene – KID FRESH.

Now based in Hong Kong, Kid Fresh has been making waves in the club land alongside DJ Enso with their enormously popular “Pimpin’ Aint Easy” and “Hype Nasty” club nights.

Since Kid Fresh wow-ed us with a Drum & Bass/ Mash up set as a surprise guest at last year’s Kongkretebass’ JungleBells 2008, we have been looking forward to featuring him in a KONGKAST special. Here you go – a journey from jungle and dnb to dubstep for y’all – Kid Fresh stylin’!

KONGKAST #96 features more of the delicious Dubstep sound. With flavours as diverse as  there are stars in the heavens, it is often difficult to choose words to describe this futuristic music.

On this week’s guest mix, Singapore’s Darren Dubwise takes you on a journey from the ambient, abstract, technoid, through to the oriental percussive, jazzy and strangely brilliant side of the dubstep spectrum.

Cheers to Darren Dubwise’s for putting together his selection for Kongkretebass.com.
