Local Hero: Dirty Basement ft/ Baby Taylor - So Cruel (Dubstep Mix)

So Friday rolls round again, and here at Synth we're getting all hyped up about a night at the Sub Club with A1 Bassline & Tomb Crew for How's Your Party? It's shaping up to be a very messy night indeed and with Boom Monk Ben on support you know shits going to get naughty...

Anyway, time for this week's Local Hero.

LOCAL HERO:

We featured these guys on our 'Get To Know...' segment last week and after tearing down Subcity's 'Who Da Best?' party last week, the promo release of 'So Cruel' couldn't have been better timed. Enlisting up and coming vocal talent Baby Taylor for a heart wrenching tale of love and lost, 'So Cruel' strikes deep in the soul with an emotional edge which engages on so many levels. There is also an Electro version of the track, but we feel the Dubstep mix perhaps captures the raw emotion of Baby Taylor's vocals on a higher level. Either way, quality stuff.

Next up, it's time to get that Friday feeling as Dave Cuthbertson gives Steve Lawler's recent smash 'Gimme Some More' a tasty re-lick. Rotating around a solid groove which carries you effortlessly through seven minutes of pure dancefloor delight, Dave has manged to surround those instinctive vocals with an elevating, party vibe which will take you far beyond the wee hours.

We know nothing about our next featured artists other than their debut track makes us want to get batty in a dark warehouse somewhere. Bodymilk are from Glasgow and they've just made this track, 'Bad Ascii' available for free download. Slamming you in the face with a heavy-hitting, Acid-Electro flavour for a full seven minutes, the only let up comes from a rather dreamy breakdown. Download it, NOW.

Finally, mega-pal B-Tone of Spectra sent us over this slice of metallic Electro-Tech earlier in the week and it featured right at the top of our most recent show on Subcity Radio. With a fairly industrious lead hook helped along by bubbling bleeps and a hard-hitting kick, this is aimed staight at the floor with a roaving eye for devastation. Synth resident Vianassa will be joining B-Tone and the gang at Spectra on Feb 20th.
