Watch out for Roots 2 Future music @ Wire!!Scuba playing in November...big up the different selection from all the usual big names.

we just through our first club night called PROPPA at hush nightclub(one of the better electronic clubs in town)

we were able to bring in a 110 bass heads down on a torrential rain storm on a thursday night to bruk out to:
Daege Sound System- Dj Bias - Gobe and Rhythmicon

With a few more Proppa's lined up for 2009 it is looking like a Dubstep takeover is in full effect for victoria.

Miss Bliss productions(sarah) has thrown a couple shows here in victoria at the sunset room. the original bassbottoms show back in march 2008 saw daega sound, tusk and few other cats peel the paint off in a grimey dance.




It has been intresting to be in a city that is just catching up with the bass craze that has been huge everywhere but here.

i remember playing in a dj competion back in april 08 and dropping a set of dubstep and having the bar staff say "that kind of music doesn't get played in here". To the present momment where the bass blood in the water and all the dubstep sharks are in a feeding frenzy.

big up world wide bass culture and the people that allow it grow.
