Dev79

"No Dance Routine" is just crying out for some more vocal remixes.

I love left turns. I don't drive, though; I'm talking about the abrupt shifts that tracks take. Take, for instance, RVLVR's remix of Dev79's Street Ba

We Got This is a west coast collective that is pushing some truly marvelous music. Their first release is available for a dollar, includes a stack of homies that we've been pushing since we've been in operation, and set the tone for things to come. The second installment repeats some of the heavy-hitters from the debut, including Slagz, Mastah Syphe, M!NT, Bedrockk, and Dawn Safari. Also included is the bossman of Street Bass, Dev79, as well as a stack of fresh faces.

HUGE power hour mix to get your weekend started. You should already know how DAD feels about Starkey and Dev79. They've put their stamp on the bass music scene, both in Philly and across the globe, and mixes like this just highlight that fact. Not only is Starkey's massive "Blaster" the lead-off tune in this set, but we find out that he's got an I Am Legion remix on the way, and we get to hear bits from Spooky, Dev79, Mr. Mitch, DJ Cable, and many others. Loads of bass for your Friday morning.

King Fantastic has been a crew that's delved heavily into electronic music, giving sick producers the opportunity to rework their tracks in amazing wa

Back when we premiered his DAD guest mix, we told you about Dev79 producing a grip of the B.A.S.S. EP from the Blok Boyz, and now we have a video for their cut "Zombie," which finds the crew showing how intense their party life is. We imagine many of you have been on those three-day ragers, where you're drinking more than you're sleeping. Before you pass out, memorize this anthem, so when you're babbling in the corner you'll at least make a bit of sense.

Last day of a long weekend, huh? What are you getting into? Hopefully you've still got some food in the fridge to throw on the grill. Get poolside, crack a cold one, and enjoy these last few hours before returning to reality. You need soundtracks, and DAD has you covered. Fourth of July week served us lovely, and there are a number of gems in mixed form that you better get acquainted with.

“Don’t speak about it, be about it” feels like it’s a mantra that describes Dev79 completely. He’s been running things in the Philly scene f

Tomorrow, Dev79 will present the third installment of the Street Bass Bootlegs series. When we talk about hip-hop and r&b meshing with bass music, these are the kinds of compilations that properly execute those ideas. Featured on this project are Starkey, Dev79, rar Kelly, King, Distal, Bombé, El Carnicero, and more, with both remixes and original tracks in the "street bass" vein.

Speaker For The Dead is one of those guys that I run into pretty frequently on those rare evenings where I venture out of my cave, and he's always a pleasure to speak with. His So This Is Human Life release was mastered by Starkey, and features remixes from DAD favorites like Dev79, Architekt, Bombé, and Jack Deezl. This release is available on Bandcamp for whatever price you want to name, and I'm sitting here looking at a group of incredibly talented artists that are genuinely nice people.
