I’ve been lovin’ these guys’ bassline raver tracks. They just sent over the DJ mix below which is a great showcase of their sound.
A couple of their tracks are posted for free DL over at Palms Out Sounds and they’re definitely worth checkin’, but I highly recommend their digi-EP called “Rave Lord” which is available at Juno Download ->
We’re honored to announce the Mashit release of “ThisTroy,” a split EP from Cardopusher and Pacheko. It’s 7 tracks of pure boom-step! The riddims are tight and the bass is HUGE!
Tracklist with Previews:
Cardopusher “Homeless”
Cardopusher “Twins”
Cardopusher “Lightning Resistor”
Pacheko “Pasta de Coca”
Pacheko “Hielo Seco (Remix)”
Pacheko “Green Bull”
Pacheko “Green Bull (Remix)”
Cardopusher emerged out of Caracas, Venezuela a couple years ago and has since exploded onto the international dubcore and breakstep scenes. He now lives in Barcelona, Spain but isn’t home much due to his busy touring secueule. He’s released a wrath of speaker devistation on labels like Peace Off in France, Germany’s Ad Noiseam, Philly’s Flamin’ Hotz, Berlin’s Cock Rock Disco, Portland’s Lodubs, and many more. A Quarta 330 remix of the track “Homeless” (featured on this EP) was recently released on Kode9’s London-based Hyperdub label.
Pacheko is another rising star out of Caracas who’s currently got a split single out on Lo Dubs with street-bass-bot, Starkey. He’s got a couple other releases out too, but what’s more important is his huge, bassy, electro-melodic sound. We’re excited to be in the good graces of this artist who’s gonna be big! In addition to recording gigantic tracks he’s been running the Wob This parties in Caracas and has got lots more in the pipe!
Cardopusher and Pacheko were both featured on Bruno Belluomini’s mix for the XLR8R Podcast called “Dubstep Goes South” of which XLR8R said:
This selection of tracks, many of [them] unreleased, showcases how producers… …in the Southern hemisphere are interpreting the dubstep sound.
But that doesn’t begin to explain the extreme melodies within the forward-sonic rhythms encapsulated in these tracks. Just give a listen to the previews above.
More Quotes:
…two amazing producers from the streets of Caracas, Venezuela [join] forces on a split seven track EP out on Mashit. The bassheavy sound (dubcore and breakstep) has everything from melodic synthlines, woobly bass and hard hitting dubstep drums. It found its way into my heart [as well] as my Serato instantly.

…check the track “Twins” — particularly the way Cardopusher lays down the requisite bass pulsations and smoked-out sonics sculpting, and then gradually builds the track up by layering on some dizzying polyrhythms and snatches of… classic reggae horn riffs. Leave it to a couple of artists from the tropic regions to know how to take the music back to its Caribbean roots.
— Graham Sanford, Gapers Block
Tight! is the word. Cardopusher brings an instant floor filler with ‘homeless’. …serious south american jump.
- Chris Widman (Abstract Science Raido)
Mashit shoppers can download all 7 tracks as an album for $4.99, or grab the tracks individually for $.89 each. They’re all 320 MP3s tagged with BPM, and contain the wicked artwork by Inkcore.
Hi everybody! It’s been a really long while….I’ve been out in Europe on tour, and then back in the states working on a new album, moving into a new apartment, and doing a LOT of job-hunting and penny-pinching.
Actually, it seems like everybody has been doing that, to not much avail, so I’ve whipped up this handy dandy little recession mixtape to lift your spirits and/or maybe make you want to hang yourself. It’s mostly old disco & soul cuts, because that’s what I gravitate to when I am broke for some reason… Anyway, this one goes out to all my fellow unemployed homies–hope you enjoy it!
Mochipet commissioned remixes from Berlin’s Crunkmasters Chris de Luca vs. Phon.o, Chicago’s DJ C, Canada vs. Switzerland’s Starting Teeth, San Francisco Glitch Mobster Boreta, Robot Koch of Jahcoozi, and Baltimore’s own Spank Rock DJ Darko.

Next up is my track “Juce” featuring Brazilian MC Jorge Stylo. This track has been slated for release on Berlin’s Man Recordings for like ever, but wound up on this DJ mix compilation by Australlia’s Bang Gang DJs on Modular:
The Bang Gang DJs - “D Is For Disco, E Is For Dancing”
Modular, Australia (Double CD)
[This] is the most thrillingly forward thinking and downright jacking mix the Bang Gang Deejays are yet to piece together. 68 tracks including [the track ‘Juce’ by DJ C ft. Jeorge Stylo]

Then there’s this remix I did for New York City’s Sub Swara crew:
Sub Swara “Coup d’Yah Remixes Vol 1″
Low Motion, U.S (CD/Digital)
Ghsislain Poirier moves between dancehall and drum & bass with his ‘Insh’allah’ overhaul, maintaining a fearsome low end presence at all times… DJ C sews things up with a highly entertaining take on ‘Belgrade Riddim’, full of finely chopped breaks and Balkan brass melodies.
- Boomkat
Last but not least is this compilation of Boston-centric electronic choonz on which my Boston-bounce track “Acid Bounce” appears. Also features tracks by Dev Null, Vinyl Blight and many more:
“Year Of The Rat” - Compilation Vermin Street, U.S (CD/Digital Album)
Earlier this month Barack Obama won the US Presidency. At Grant Park in Chicago hundreds of thousands of people celebrated in unity as he gave his victory speach. It was an incredible experience, but I didn’t realize ’til the next day, when I saw this AP video essy, just how incredible:
That was Tuesday, November 4, ‘08. Three days later I had a gig in Chicago, at Bass Goes Boom, the montly party at Lava. I decided to start my set with Obama’s speach. The crowd went wild! Unfortunately I was too busy dancing pay attention to my mixing, but none-the-less I think today — Thanksgiving — is a good time to share the mix.
