This Tuesday, WeGetFamous Magazine is delighted to bring you a deep, genre-breaking exclusive blend from Houston’s internationally-acclaimed bass duo, Sines. Deep – overused in descriptions on our site, but inaccurate? Hell no! Complex, like the bouquet of a three-year old Chardonnay crafted in Kenwood. Just as bold and full of flavor, but you can take this mix in while you [...]
Frenzi: Edward Oberon This past Saturday, WGF had our hands full with good music and events, namely, Frenzi featuring Edward Oberon and local support from Ramsey, John the Third, and Pejman. The early evening warmup drink specials from 8-10 were fully appreciated, as was the special dnb set by John the Third. All local support Saturday dropped the goods, setting [...]
This Tuesday, WeGetFamous proudly brings you the eighteenth installment of our weekly mixtape series, featuring a heavy dubstep & bass mix by Houston’s own Juxta – known for moving crowds at Gritsy & FNV. This one sets the bar for deep, bass-heavy dubstep blends. From start to finish, Juxta seamlessly fuses music that pulsates with slow, driving rhythms and basslines [...]
When WGF rolled into Frenzi, Sol.Id was wrecking shop, and the patio was hoppin’ with dancin’ drinkers and smokers (and lovers..? lol). Bold and smooth business all night long, strong drinks, and good vibes (thanks Brad & Frenzi crew!). As time passed, people poured in to catch local favorites play, including Hippo and ex-pat-Texan Estefex (great to see ‘em!). No [...]

In my memory, from the time I first attended the South by Southwest Music and Film Festival and Conference, one thing stood out that changed the city of Austin, TX for a week: the fashion. Some may feel differently, but I think that the most fashionable week of Austin has [...]

Chicago’s known as the house capitol of the world but it’s also home to a thriving techno scene. A scene Dj Qbot is a very active participant with two residencies, a weekly radio show, and as an interviewer for Smart Bar’s Smartblog. Usually the one asking the questions, the Jackson, [...]

Of all the social networking sites, we at WGF spend plenty time combing over the margins of SoundCloud, experiencing some kind of musical semiosis, leaping from one dope tune to a mix and – now we’re in Holland. That kind of non-linear journey through the many offerings in the marketplace [...]
This Tuesday, by way of The Daily Street (cheers fam!), WeGetFamous puts you onto a recent mix by Vandera, of London’s dubstep scene. Check out interview at The Daily Street. Deep, heavy, moody, and all in C- (read the interview!), all 60 tracks on the 60 minute mix move you. [...]

Look out for HGLDT‘s new release “Evolution EP,” featuring a bounce & swang type remix by Kingthing. Two original tracks and a remix, the three tunes on “Evolution” push the boundaries of emerging genres – “Bass Music” and “Future Garage.” Really, the music on this EP defies reductive categorization – its sound echoes the recent and not-so-distant past (Dubstep, Garage, [...]
Last Saturday, WGF hit Warehouse Live reasonably early, around ten, and the walk around the corner would have clued even the hardest of hearing into the fact that I <3 Dubstep and the Wall of Bass were in full swing already. After a friendly exchange with our homies working the door/merch, I grabbed a Tanqueray & tonic and headed for [...]

Earlier today I had the pleasure of Flash Gordon Parks (aka Chuck) dropping by to jam a lil bit on the MPD. Since I’ve lent the midi controller to him, Chuck has come with the goods! Currently he’s working on remixing – live – some of H.I.S.D.’s music/instrumentals, chopped up with some vocals and original samples. Funky business. But [...]

Today, we bring you a smooth, full on soul-satisfying blend this Mixtape Tuesday from Houson-based Rabit. Reggae, soca, bass, uk funky, grime – and the kitchen sink. GET TO KNOW THIS FOOL. Really though. Tracklist makes the point verbally, but you have to listen to feel the collage of danceflo’ bangers and deep rinsers that fuse this blend. Recommended. RABIT- [...]
Who brings an analog TR 808 across the Atlantic to drop the boom on bass-hungry Houstonians? One helluva headliner… Thanks to Gritsy fam, Addison Groove (aka Headhunter – Bristol, UK) made history this past Saturday at Mainstage. But before we get to that, let’s talk about the supporting lineup for the night. After all, each DJ had a non-trivial task [...]

Today, WeGetFamous brings you our twentieth installment of Mixtape Tuesday. And it’s deep… Our friend Knome (Gritsy, Houston) crafted this top-notch selection for our featured mix series – and it’s pitch-perfect, bass-heavy blends, from beginning to end. Comprising a seamless collage of soulful, driving rhythms, Knome’s mix mos def complements Juxta’s set, featured two weeks back. This go round, Knome [...]
This past Saturday, WGF rolled up to Gritsy at Mainstage early, at doors. Good thing too, because Knome was already throwing down heavy beats for the gathering crowd. People had already taken up positions at the bar, around the bar, and every booth, so it was standing room only from the get go. And like magic, like the handkerchiefs that [...]
If you visit the site regularly, you no doubt have heard of Zoltan, as we’ve featured his tunes on several exclusive mixes. This Tuesday, we bring a mix from the man himself. The Romanian-based (soon to be Amsterdam-bound) producer and DJ has received support and plays from yours truly, as well as Ikonika, Cosmin TRG, and Houston powerhouse Sines. Influenced [...]

With so much happening in the city on a Saturday, it can prove difficult choosing where to do your thang. So let us help. Here are two events – in no particular order – not to be missed (seriously, you can catch us bouncing between both!). SAMO Soundboy Bombón, Freshmore, and Gritsy join forces to bring Trouble & Bass / [...]
This Tuesday, WGF hips you to a recent mix in Freshmore’s podcast series (006). New flavor along the lines of what you might expect at Houston’s burgeoning, Latin-infused event Bombón, this mix spans diverse currents in contemporary dance music. Ese Cabrón brings the goods – bang this one y disfrútala! From Freshmore: Hailing from Tamaulipas Mexico, we hooked up with [...]
