Sach O wants to see Joe Nice and Prime Minister Pete Nice duke it out. Dubstepforum award nominated mix series, Montreal institution and all around dope website J’aime le Dubstep celebrated its 100th release earlier this week in grand fashion with an exclusive 40 minute blast of unreleased music courtesy of American bass ambassador Joe […]

Sach O is all about listening to dystopian shit in 2011. I’ll hold back for my full review but you need Kode9 and the Spaceape’s upcoming Black Sun. Universally ignored by a Hip-Hop underground, their 2006 debut Memories of the Future may have been the decade’s best slice of Afrofuturist sci-fi since Deltron 3030 and […]

Sach O: Burial – Ego March 15, 2011
Because Burial is quickly turning into the rap Jeff Mangum, any sign of new material has become a cause for celebration but Ego puts to rest any notion of the mysterious producer being overhyped. His music quite simply sounds like nothing else out there, its dusty, dubby, nostalgic take on UK Garage remaining inimitable even […]

Sach O listens to Hum & Buzz when he rolls. Ikonika’s Contact Love Want Have is still in rotation, a full length with definitive staying power whose shiny textures and laser synth lines go in perfect tandem with the spring air. A bridge between her earlier Dubstep-influenced experimentation and new all-post-everything sound, it’s the kind […]

Sach O‘s favorite line from this film: “Smoke a spliff and make some dub, why would you want to do anything else?” Some old testament shit right here, if you can wrap your mind around how something from 2006 can feel a million years old. This DIY doc on Bristol’s nascent Dubstep scene probably won’t […]

Follow Sach O on Twitter. He’s starting to get the hang of it. Note to Gringo rappers: rhyming over Dubstep isn’t easy. Try some cutesy bullshit and you’ll end up looking like an ass-out trend hopper desperate for attention. Word to this abortion with the fake T.I style hook. Thankfully, Zilla Rocca, my #1 source […]

Sach O: What the Game’s Been Missing. Not a fan of Valentine’s day, Mash-Ups or the latter day work of 112 but sometimes you gotta drop one for the ladies. This is an Ableton-recreated mash up of a blend from my set last night which pitted Croydon’s own Ollie Jones vs. Q, Mike, Slim & […]

Sach O is rolling in the shallow. Abe Beame’s fearless coverage of Bad Boy’s golden era and Trey Songz’ arthouse predilections frees me to cover more R&B, a development that bodes well for this site’s already robust funk-quotient. My personal affinity for the genre leans towards dance floor remixes, an obvious development but not an […]

Sach O: Master of the shameless plug Though the urge to to harness this site’s reach for maximum synergy is strong, I usually refrain from undue self-promotion around here, if only because there’s only so many ways to say “you should really come out and see me mix records!” That said, you really should come […]
