Starkey - LIVE at Broketronica (MP3)

This mix comes from Philly DJ & '05 Laptop Battle Champion Starkey. And man it is a killer! A caliginous blend of dubstep, breakcore, spook-step and more. If you yearn for the good ole darkcore days back in 92 this will come as a pleasant return to the moody darkness of yesteryear. You can spend days trying to aurally dissect the different layers of sounds. The purists might bitch about laptop DJing not being "real" but Starkey douses the haters with some insane blends that would be impossible without a laptop.

Genres: bass, breakcore, darkcore, dubstep, laptop

DJ DB - The Prettiest Breakbeat (MP3)

For all of you new-jacks who are getting loose with "neu-rave" on your iPizzy. Check out this "OG rave" mix circa 1992 from one of NYC's hardest working DJs - DJ DB. You might have heard of DB from his famed US DnB store Breakbeat Science or from his recent DnB mix CDs. But that is just a small slice of DBs prowess. He has been in the game since WAAAAAY back in the day. And this mixset is a great example of DB's sound back in the NASA days. Unlike most Old School mixes this is not just a collection of 140+ bpm CDs cut mixed together. Witness the sounds behind rave and the birth of drumandbass.

Genres: darkcore, hardcore, jungle, old school, rave
