Give XLR8R credit. While the economic crash has turned most print mags into skeletal shells (shills?) of their former self or has found them unable to find an Internet niche, the San Francisco-based dance publication has survived with its integrity intact. Outside of RA, few places have covered the bass/wonky/dubstep explosion in greater depth, with their latest cover story on Joker perhaps the most extensive look at the Bristol wunderkind yet. Granted, that’s not saying much–the guy’s either shy or has the personality of cream of wheat (which has surprisingly little personality despite the jovial fellow on the box).
Now they’ve enlisted Nosaj Thing for a must-download podcast with unreleased Flying Lotus, Teebs, and Jason Chung tracks. Not to mention Samiyam, Exile, Gaslamp, Ras G, Daedelus, and Tokimonsta. Amounted together, it might as well be a Best of the Low End Theory compilation, and another reason why…I don’t need to give you another reason. Tracklist below the jump. True Train Wreck not included (there are enough of those in SoCal).
