DJ Cable went ham on Justin Timberlake's breakout solo single, "Like I Love You." Something about the way he threw that grime-y edit on those Neptunes drums?! This is the anthem for the rest of the week.
Word is that this is the beginning of a Triangulum free download series, so keep on the lookout for those.
The homey Cable put me onto Young Mind and the "cosmic trap" sound he creates, and it looks like this is confirmed to be the 5th release on Cable's Triangulum imprint. No word on release date, but don't fuck around and miss this. Reminds me of what Joker would sound like if he took his Purple Wow sound and Trap'd it out. This is what I'm talking about when I say Trap needs more outside influences. Too many guys making generic Hip-Hop beats and passing it off as something dope. If you don't want the sound to die, don't cut the creativity off, nahmean? I hear Mr. Mitch and Decibel have remixes coming soon as well. More word when I have it.
As a bit of promo before the release of SRC's Tangerine EP on June 29th, Cable got the one like Big Narstie to kick some bars over the title track. Nothing but pure unadaulterated Grime vibes. Nothing to be afraid of at all. Now if I can only get some of you American spitters on board, it'd be a WRAP! Cop the EP when they drop it.
One of my passions is writing, another is music. When you get me writing about music I feel passionate about? It's a wrap. I can't help it. DJ Cable's struck a winner with the next EP on Triangulum from some cat named SRC. I didn't have any expectations, as I know Cable has signed the deeper stuff but has a flair for the dancefloor bounce. This EP sides more for the floor, but it has this fly quirkiness about it that still knocks. Like SRC knows how to cut the hecticness perfectly on tunes like "June" to where they have that raw snap, but that quality that really gets you moving. Just some dynamic music. Expect this sometime in June, with a feature on DOA at some point.
The homey DJ Cable gets interviewed by Mixclique Vision, speaking on everything from his early days of DJing to his multiple successes and current goings on, from DJing for Yasmin to Triangulum, which is set to drop their 2nd release VERY soon.
DJ Cablepremiered his Triangulum Show on Sub FM the other day, bringing some of the finest in Bass Music to the radiowaves. Featured artists include Skream, Fused Forces, Waka Flocka, Joker, Teeza, Emalkay and more. Tune into this show every Monday on Sub FM, or just wait for it to be sorted on the podcast.
As Cable truly moves from strength to strength, and continues to add more accolades to his resume, I present this guest mix that Cable's done alongside the nice feature Knowledge did for his Triangulum imprint. Brief chat about what he's been doing and his plans for the label, and a doooope look at the sound he's trying to provide as a label head. Gwarn, Cabes!
Joker vs. Slim Thug & Bun B “The Vision (DJ Cable THUGSTEP Refix)”: Been sleeping on posting these for some reason, but after Cable’s Video Scratch noodling produced a spot-on blend video of these two tracks, I figured some of you smart selectors needed this refix in your life. Taking a vintage Slim Thugga single and pairing it up with the first glimpse from Joker’s forthcoming album? I could see niggas in Houston bouncing their candy painted whips to something like this, syrup’d out, leanin’ low. I’d make about fifty ‘leven posts on Cable’s latest mailout, but I’ll just post the link to the .zip, which not only features an Aphex Twin edit, but unreleased heat from Fused Forces, Dcult and another Cable blend! Support that Triangulum release as well, peeeyump!
