Saturday June 5th at the San Diego Sports Arena features a plethora of original electronic artist that bring their own unique spins to you favorites like house, drum and bass and ubstep. My favorites at least. For more information check out the website www.resetfest.com
Here are some of my favorite artist attending
Bassnectar
This track from his latest EP Timestretch is self explanatory in what Bassnectar is. It encompasses the Full Phat bass while delivering juicy sub basses and and almost hip hop melody. Download Here
Hatiras
A Unique special blend of some of the funkiest and phreshest house, i've seen hatiras before and he delivers a solid set.
1/2 of the deadmau5 and Duda duo and Co owner of Xfer records along with Mr. Zimmerman himself. Interestingly enough, he's also a very talented programmer, with software vst coming out soon by the name of NERVE. A Nifty drum sampler.
The new pendulum album is out, I'm excited for the full quality version of these songs. I got a track breakdown here let you guys in on the new sounds from pendulum. Absolutely Epic.
So here we've got this epic fusion of drum and bass, dubstep, and even electro-house surprisingly enough. Well done electro-house at that.
Track 1:Genesis
An intro to provide epicness of the album, Lots of cinematic horns and dramatic big band trumpets while, with a sega genesis c64 chirp in the distant background. Leads into the second track
Track 2:Salt in the wounds
-If you've been following the album release at all, you've heard this track before, and it is killer in full quality, Abruptly the track slows down to what seems to be even slower than half-time, but still dubstep-esque. Very nice drum and bass track.
Track 3:Watercoulour
-This was the first single to really hit mainstream. Deadmau5 collaborated with Rob swire of Pendulum for the House remake of this track. Very Drum and bass, with the always eerie pendulum vocals, I believe the vocals on this were Rob Swire's, Some of the vocals on the album were done by their MC. This track sounds more like Rob.
Track 4:Set Me On Fire
The Big Dubstep track from Pendulum here. To me sounds a little like the stuff slugabed makes. A little tricky Dubstep, along with some deep bass. Throw in a couple hoover sounds and this track here is magic. Bet it sounds even more massive on a set of FUNKTION ONE speaker systems.
Track 5:Crush
Another big tune. This one is the of the rock pendulum that we all know and love. Rob swire is on the guitar for most of the album this time. Very nice medley of synths and grinding bass lines. A very small acoustic part where it breaks down. Gotta have the full version!
Track 6: Under the Waves
Very nice vocals on this track, and the DnB drop is real sweet. It's like riding small roller coaster...im serious. Once the roller coaster rises towards the end and you fall into a drumstep deathtrap. Killer riding hi hats.
Track 7: Immunize-Feat. Liam Howlett
Big Tune here folks, Really massive. Starts off big and proper, big strings and deep hollow drums. and drop with mad drum and bass killer guitar and raging vocal. The emotions that come to mind when describing is pure anger. Start moshing little ones, The pendulum is rockin.
Track 8: The Island Part 1
Nice house tune from pendulum, taking the album down a notch but still raising the bar. It's no doubt these guys are talented to say the least. The soft chords draining intermittently while the kick pounds hard over them. I don't really like a lot of vocals but for some reason the way this guy Swire works his vocals seem to go great with electronic tracks. The song breaks down into Track 9
Track 9:The Island Part 2
-Just ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT! My favorite track this year so far from any electronic artist.. Such a huge tune, you can't beat that rising synth. I would love to see the remixes coming for this track. Let's see if they can beat the original.
Track 10:CompraChicos
-Not too sure what's going on here. Sounds a little grungy to me. But it's not bad, switches styles between rock and drum and bass. I think the vocals are from the MC on this track.
Track 11:The Vulture
This was one of the preview tunes on the preview set. Another one of pendulums classic rock electro drum and bass. These guys could dominate pretty much every genre of music, pretty talented bunch a people.
Track 12:Witchcraft
Cool and relaxing track, soft vocals and sharp guitar synth lines.
Track 13:Self Vs. Self Feat In Flames
Probably the biggest rock intro for a track. This is actually the biggest full band track on the album, it features in flames, that's the guy screaming over the track. This track will do well in the drum and bass community! Real Madness!
Track 14: The fountain Feat Steve Wilson
Cool Piano's and drum and bass going on here. Could do without the vocals really. the track could have been better. Just without the vocals..Sorry steve Wilson.
Track 15:Encoder
Probably my least favorite song on the album It sounds like it could have fit right into disney's tarzan, vocals and all. The breakdown was very nice. Its a big tune actually, and as far as album compilation is concerned, it serves up a great ending to an almost perfect album. If it's not perfection I don't know what is.
I know i keep Talking about full quality this and that...
Here's a Little bit about the band From Wikipedia For you all For the Australian ambient house band, see Pendulum (ambient band). Pendulum
Pendulum at Glastonbury Festival 2009. Background information Origin Perth, Australia Genres Electronica, drum and bass, electronic rock Years active 2002-present Labels Breakbeat Kaos, Ear Storm, Warner Music Group, Atlantic Records Associated acts Adam F, Baron, Bulletproof, DJ Fresh, Fats, The Freestylers, In Flames, Jasmine Yee, The Prodigy, Sub Focus, Steven Wilson, Tenor Fly, TC Website www.pendulum.com Members Rob Swire Gareth McGrillen Paul Harding Ben Mount Perry ap Gwynedd Kevin "KJ" Sawka Former members Paul Kodish
Pendulum are a drum and bass/rock group with the original members, Rob Swire, Gareth McGrillen and Paul Harding, from Perth, Australia. Paul Harding is a veteran DJ while Rob Swire and Gareth McGrillen had an acclaimed rock band called Xygen but after hearing Konflict's "Messiah" at a rave they made the decision to produce drum and bass instead. In 2003 they relocated to the United Kingdom and are now one of the top drum and bass producers. While Hold Your Colour held true to this intent, they have since experimented with mixing rock influences back in, with the rock-heavy sophomore album In Silico, and the upcoming third album, Immersion, being slightly less so. Their newer efforts also incorporate styles from other genres, such as dubstep, heavy metal and electro house. Pendulum are now better known for their energetic live shows, with live band setup and advanced visual displays and incorporating their rock background with drum and bass.
