We never really know what to make of Borgore. That’s a discussion for later perhaps. Right now, though, we’re very much getting into this new Buygore Fresh Blood compilation, a free download of eight tracks from some seriously talented up-and-coming artists. On the roster we’ve got Darius Carter, Laetho, Noclu, Padu, Salute and Chee.

So what have we got on the album? London’s Darius Carter has two tracks. Psilocybin is a dreamy, laid-back tune, a tantalising fusion of breaks and grime. XX is straight-up chillstep, with plenty of bass. There are also two tune from Noclu, whose recent collab with CoMa is divine. Resistance is a heavy, pulsating orgy of grimey, angry bass and screwface vibes, while Synthia explores the limits of gloomy, unsettling synths and disturbing melodies.

Laetho from Belgium drops a throbbing, pulsating slab of twisted electronic music, marking him as a producer to watch in the future. Padu, a 17-year-old beatmaker from Aberdeen, Scotland, unleashes all kinds of industrial-tinged energy with his track Anxiety, one that will pleases fans of the more stripped-back forms of dubstep.

Voltt by Salute is relentless with its timestretched, unnerving vocal snippets and trappy drums, driven home by dirty pads and deep, dark bass. Suicide Mouse from Chee is glitchy as heck, with the BPMs cranked right up, resembling something along the lines of unhinged horror drumstep.

It’s not a completely natural ensemble of producers and tunes, but as a showcase rising talent, most of whom we’d never heard of, there’s a lot to be excited about, particularly in the form of Darius Carter.

The good folks at Inspected have curated an album of some of the most exciting producers around at the moment. Not only that, but they’re giving it away for free. What more could you really ask for? The tunes on Power by Inspected range from sublime chillout numbers to bass-heavy growlers. The opening track sets the tone with the excellent ZES remix of Asa and Stumbleine’s Without You, a track we recently bigged up. It’s an absolute beauty.

From there, we explore the dark, industrial sounds of the likes of Barbarix and Culprate with DET & Silanta delivering a masterclass in erratic drum patterns. On our journey, we get into some bass, dubstep, future garage, drum n bass, tech house, grime, raw electro — everything really. Kursa and Bijou throw down some dirty breaks and Sam Gellaitry lets rip with a deep, techy 4/4 smasher.

xKore takes a breather from his usual sound with a wonky piano house tune under his Sonny Banks monicker, while omnipresent Sorrow reminds us why he’s the don of rough-and-ready garage beats. Not to be outdone, Thinnen throws one down for the dancefloor and as the album draws to a close, Vanilla is there with a cheeky dose of funk.

All in all, it’s a yarn spun by some of contemporary dance music’s most gifted storytellers. An extravagant feast of boundless basslines, dystopian drums and sumptuous synths.

We’re not always huge fans of what Skrillex is doing, sure, but we like it when people push boundaries and embrace new ways of thinking. So when we heard that the good folks at OWSLA were putting out a BitTorrent bundle to celebrate the label’s 3rd birthday, we jumped on it. For a long time, people in the music biz were of the frame of mind that torrents were the industry’s sworn enemy. Turns out that maybe everyone can get along after all.

The OWSLA bundle is chock full of dubstep tunes and other niceties from over the last few years, including the mighty Dubplate by Moody Good, the huge Rebel remix by Trollphace and the hauntingly gorgeous Xtalk by Hundred Waters. In total there are 21 phat tunes, as well as a few bonus goodies like videos, art work, merch discounts and a free month of Drip.FM membership. You can’t say fairer than that.

It’s been a big year for Skrillex and it’s nowhere near over. The dubstep don will be embarking on a 27-date US tour this Autumn along with acts like DJ Mustard, DJ Snake, A$AP Ferg and Big Gigantic. No doubt it will be huge, so check it out if that’s your thang.
