We’re just over a month into 2011 and have already seen a ton of new releases by some of the top electronic producers and a handful from fresh new faces. This 20-track mix highlights some of the most recent advanced electronic songs to come out this year. This mix spans the gamut, including dubstep, drum [...]

From North America’s dubstep/future bass scene comes the third release from Surefire Sound, 003. Distal & Hxdb collaborate on “Typewriter Tune VIP,” a revamped version of the dubstep/UK funky original dance floor hit—which was included in Knowledge Magazine’s Top 10 January Bass Releases. The second track, “Frozen Barnacles,” is a high energy half-step collaboration from [...]

This new German (or English) producer, Objekt, should be on everyone’s radar. This is minimal, futuristic dubstep at its best.  After blindly downloading the release a few weeks ago, I realized I stumbled across something huge. My first (and completely wrong) impression was stale minimal grime…until the tracks built up and broke back down repeatedly [...]

Let’s get ready to rumble! Tipper’s latest release, Snake Eyes, has enough wobbly bass to take down both The Natural Disasters and The Brothers of Destruction. These two tracks are packed with plenty of morphing synths and sputtering low-end bass. It’s not quite what I expected to hear after last years’ mind bending Broken Soul [...]

Dear bros:
Yesterday was the most visited day in Sawtooth’s history, mostly due to the The Brostep Post—which was the second most viewed post in one day (just under Nosaj Thing Remixes from last year). To celebrate, I’m giving you 10 more tunes to melt your brains.
Sincerely,
Sawtooth
01. Bare – Banshee
02. Borgore – Kinder Surprise (ft. Tomba)

I wanted to break away from what most of us are familiar with and showcase some music that was extremely influential to the post-punk and industrial music scenes in the late 1970s. It’s always refreshing to hear something raw and gritty to remember electronic music doesn’t have to be so rigid.
In 1977, Damon Edge, Helios [...]

I’ve become overloaded—no wait, broverloaded—the past few months with face melting mid-range bass stompers. Out of the last 100 dubstep releases I’ve heard, at least half would have to fall under this category. Rather than creating 17,000 separate posts, I figured I’d knock out a few new and old tunes together. Don’t get me wrong—I [...]

I got a message from Chris over at Aentitainment about a new 12″ featuring Enzym and Moogulator. Although I couldn’t get a hold of my favorite tune on the release, the two tracks posted are pretty sick. They remind me of cEven Key/Download albums from the late 90s/early 2000s. Any seasoned rivethead should know what [...]

Instead of concentrating on one artist or release, I wanted to recognize the distinct sound coming from contemporary Russian producers—choppy beats rooted in hip hop, fluorescent hypercolour bass, 8-bit samples and loads of filter automation. Pixelord (who was awesome enough to explain how to create his 8-bit arpeggiations) was one of the first artists I [...]

Moving On is the debut EP of west coast producer, Shakes. But according to Facebook, he’s currently living in Philadelphia (the city of Sawtooth!). Moving On is a fresh new 5-track wall of experimental sound. Snares are layered, atmospheres are thick, basses are heavy, but most importantly, the synths and effects are unique. If you [...]
