Flux Pavilion lays down the bass on the world’s favourite mix show. Joshua Steele, aka Flux Pavilion, is the co-founder of Circus Records along with Doctor P. He was nominated in the BBC’s Sound of 2012 poll. His track ‘I Can’t Stop’ was sampled on Jay Z and Kanye West’s album ‘Watch The Throne’. And he’s about to release the first single ‘Daydreamer’ featuring Example with a debut album to follow.

Dismantle is on the phone to select his entry for A History of Bass in 100 Tracks and Tim Westwood’s Moisture Moment gets Showjacked by the boys. Then things get slowed down for 130 and 11:30, where they showcase their favourite house tracks of the minute. And for the last half an hour there’s only music and no chat for the Slammers and Bangers mix! Bass, beats and banter for two hours with Skream and Benga.

My kind of tune right here, nahmean? Trenton is heavy with West Indians, and the Reggae/Dancehall sounds blast just as heavy as Hip-Hop does. This is serious bass-driven banger from School of Sharks, which Spekt says is dropping this Summer. Smoke something to this.

Mega Ran ft. Tribe One & Jermiside "Miles Morales"

Been on kind of a comic book kick since, well, I got my Kindle Fire last year, but as of late (because of Avengers vs. X-Men), I've been nerding out, but if you're not rocking to the new Ultimate Spider-Man, with the half-Black/half-Spanish Spider-Man?!?! You're messing up. Mega Ran links with Tribe One & Jermiside for this special jawn. Jerm and Ran got an EP on the way, and Ran hit $6K on his Kickstarter, so they dropped this cut that's influenced by my new favorite lil' kid ass hero.

Another week down. I had some words for #hiphoptwitter on this one, as well as a (regular) recap of Raw and a (short) recap of Super Smackdown, as well as the latest news, including bits on The Bella Twins. I was in a mood with the music this week, fucks with it.Get that rasslin' fix!

Been waiting for this one to drop. I had been trying for a bit to get someone to work those Aleon Craft tracks inna THUGSTEP vein, and was glad that SMKA and Nappy linked up. Nappy brought in Santi Junior, who takes the bulk of these remixes and really shows what he's worth (well, teases - dude's got some bangers on the way). This one flips tracks from Mothership Decatur and slyly plays the futuristic spaceship funk into a different zone entirely. You already know. Some great shit for a lovely Friday the 13th, trust.

Apex ft. Ayah "Space Between (Sinistarr Remix)"

Last weekend, I started having some deep/dope conversations with a producer out of the Detroit area by the name of Sinistarr. I've known about him for the last four/five years, as any Black DnB producers out of the US rarely miss my inbox. We've had a cool rapport, and I've seen him grow from getting tunes signed to Fabio's Creative Source imprint to having bits drop on Metalheadz and Hospital Records. He's been in a different space, and is moving into different BPMs, and this is one of his first in the 165BPM range. You might have heard of the juke/footwork styles coming from Chicago and Detroit, and this remix of an Apex track (with beautiful vocals from Ayah) that Hospital released is a great example of that footwork sound. Pounding kicks and thumping bass are two of the staples of this sound, and it's been taking over as of late. Hell, Disc Jockey Nappy and Juke Ellington even have a footwork tape dropping soon... as will Nappy and Sinistarr. In any case, grab this free remix, and if you're messing with the sound, there's PLENTY more where this came from!

The Combat Jack Show ft. Dallas Penn (4/11/2012)

This episode is epic. Not only does Just Blaze officially join the Combat Jack Show ft. Dallas Penn crew, but the one and only DJ Premier stops in for a great interview. They go in on everything, from Preemo's thoughts on Guru, Christina Aguilera, porn and "pause", but thoughts on his forthcoming projects (he does say the rumored project with Nas is going to happen). Even Bun B and Freddie Foxxx call into the show on the random. Ain't no other show fucking with what they're building. Don't believe me? Peep the iTunes podcast, which has been updated with all of the past shows (save a couple few few). #GetReadyForCombat

Three Six Mafia "Who Gives A Fuck Where You From (Disc Jockey Nappy Remix)"

Nappy ain't playing fair. I mean, I converse with dude more than anyone, save for my wife, so I have a good idea of the crack he's been cooking. And for some reason, the remix work he's doing with Three Six Mafia tracks has always killed shit. This is the first one of his official productions (which I have a feeling just recently got sorted out) over a Triple Six track, and it's fucking nasty. Has that great bounce that also rides the bass music low-end. DJ Paul wished he had tracks this heavy, trust.

Smoke ft. Gorilla Zoe vs. Hudson Mohawke "Going Hammer (Disc Jockey Nappy THUGSTEP Refix)"

I literally called Nappy while he was in the midst of finishing this one. He flipped my favorite recent Hudson Mohawke jawn with this Smoke track. The beginning of this track is so epic, and the track is just like - fuck it's perfect. THUGSTEP for you slowpokes. Imma keep saying it, Thugstep Commission 3 coming soon!

Chase & Status ft. Sub Focus & Takura "Flashing Lights (Mac Miller Remix)"

Nope, I've never been a fan of Mac Miller. I do remember hearing a Chase & Status mix from BBC Radio 1Xtra where they spoke on Mac and how much they dug his music. I'm guessing that admiration lead to this version of "Flashing Lights", which features some lyrics from Mac in a few spots. Yeah, keep telling me that dubstep and Hip-Hop together doesn't make sense. Shouts to Disc Jockey Nappy, Thugstep Commission 3 is on the way!

Rickie kinda goes crazy with this one. I'm no expert on Asperger's at all, but I don't get mad at Rickie going in on this dark one. Rip Knoxx cooked up a cinematic one for Rickie to expel some of those demons on. Get into this one, but don't get shook by how it opens up. Shouts to BMXXX for this one.

BLAX "Internet Sex"

Before the video drops, Q gave the OK for this one to get leaked. Taken from BLAX x LIFE x FILES (which The Mad Bloggers presented with RTD), this one does exactly what it says on the tin. Almost like a manual on how to get your rocks off via the Internets. Although I gotta say, there's nothing like sex IRL. Bites > Bytes. Lush one right here, regardless.

Disc Jockey Nappy - A Tribute To Gimpmode

Look at what the Easter Bunny dropped off. Been waiting for this one, too. Gimpmode, as you'll hear, was a sick THUGSTE P refixer who passed away last year. Gone too soon. I know he and Nappy had struck up a friendship, and Gimpmode's work had impacted Nappy greatly, so he felt the need to sort out this tribute mix for the man. Aside from Gimpmode refixes, you also get refixes from DJ Hipnotikk, Daddy's Money, Trap Or Dub, Santi Junior and Nappy himself. Enjoy.

Dallas Penn On #AvX

I fucks with the points Dallas brings up in this one. Avengers vs. X-Men is major right now, and I fucks with X-Men on this as well. And fuck John Romita on the art (although I'm not THAT mad at Bendis. Pause.) But yeah, I hope we get more of these.
