Bassic Presents Joe Nice, Moldy & Scotch 1 at Goodlife, Tonight 12.9.11

BASSIC is proud to bring back America’s original dubstep allstars JOE NICE & Selector Moldy! It’s been over a year since these two beasts have set foot in the bassment of the Goodlife bar to bring you the sounds of bass that rattles our skulls like no other!

JOE NICE (DUBWAR NYC, Gourmetbeats.com, Dataset Clothing) Baltimore
Representing Baltimore, JoeNice is universally recognized as the ambassador of the dubstep sound in North America and has been instrumental in the growth and success of dubstep for nearly a decade. In other words, he’s been playing dubstep before it was called dubstep. Joe’s monthly radio show on GourmetBeats.com was the first to feature dubstep in the states and his worldwide fan base continues to grow with his enthusiastic stage presence & live performance, upfront selection and skillful mixing. Joe’s record bag is a who’s who of dubstep… If you’ve never heard it before, chances are, you’ll hear it from Joe Nice. He is the first American-based DJ to play on London pirate radio, Rinse FM, the first American-based DJ to play the legendary DMZ bi-monthly bash and the first American-based DJ to play FWD>> @ Plastic People. A member of Electric SoundStage Radio, DataSet Clothing and resident & co-founder of the most successful dubstep party in North America, DubWar (New York City) and selected as one of URB’s NEXT 100 (in 2007), JoeNice is continually taking dubstep to the next level and beyond.

MOLDY (Heavy Pressure, Embassy Recordings)
A native of Portland, ME and seasoned inhabitant of Boston, MA and New York, NY, Moldy is widely known for his mind-bending DJ sets and deep, dark, weighty bass music productions. A “veteran of American dubstep” (flavorwire.com, 4/19/10) and “New York City dubstep pioneer” (thekronicle.com, 3/3/10) Moldy has been “quietly leading the charge of US dubstep producers since day one” (dubwarnyc.com, 5/29/10).

Scotch1 (BASSIC)
Scotch1 grew up on mix tapes ranging from Dj Hype to DJ Dan. He began playing records in 1998, and has since played shows from Boston to Bali, with countless venues and parties in between. His main rule when playing: crowd control. From low-profile mood setters, to in your face smashers, Scotch1 can keep any dance floor filled.

JMP Live Presents Four Tet, 2.18.10 (Middle East) & Dub War NYC, 2.20.10

Four Tet is the name used by Kieran Hebden (born 1977 in Putney, London, UK) for his experimental electronic music-oriented solo efforts, to differentiate from his work with post-rock band Fridge.

Hebden’s solo work typically utilises samples lifted from various sources including hip-hop, electronica, techno, jazz, and folk mixed with his own guitar playing. Four Tet shares some stylistic similarities with other musicians, such as Prefuse 73, who use computer editing techniques that give the music a staccato, cut-up feel. Hebden’s music is notable for its rich, organic sounds and harmonious melodies as well as for eschewing the traditional pop-song format in favour of a more abstract approach.

Kieran Hebden began releasing material as Four Tet in 1998 with the 36 minute and 25 second single “Thirtysixtwentyfive” on Trevor Jackson’s Output Recordings label. Later that year, he released a second single, the jazz-influenced “Misnomer”. 1999’s “Dialogue”, again on Output, was Four Tet’s first full-length album release and fused hip-hop drum lines with dissonant jazz samples. This was followed by the double A-side single “Glasshead”/”Calamine”, which was to be Four Tet’s last release on Output.
