starkey

starkey. dude has a serious gift. hailing from philly, and feeling a real hip hop, grime and bassline house edge to dubstep, he's got a mix of "street bass" that earned him a spot in generation bass (chosen by vex'd... download the whole special here.)

i've always loved this remix track of his. it takes a kind of wack lupe fiasco tune and makes an epic banger out of it...

his new album dropping on my birthday (november 10th) is called ephemeral exhibits. i ripped the mp3 samples off this site and compiled them into a convenient .zip file. for the record, the cd is on planet mu, one of my favorite labels....
