Beyond Wonderland - Chess Village [Concert Review]

Photo credit: Oh Dag Yo // Beyond Wonderland album

I know it’s pretty late for me to be posting this, but I’ve just been swamped with a lot – school, work, and music stuff. But anyways, even though it’s been almost 2 months since Beyond Wonderland happened, I think it’s safe to say that it was just one of those events that everyone can talk about this whole year, whether you were there for DJ Fei Fei’s controversial dubstep set at the ASOT stage or you watched Steve Aoki’s crazy live visual set. For me, I spent my entire stay at Beyond Wonderland at the Chess Village, which was the bass music stage. It featured the talents of Fury, Crizzly, MistaJam, Ed Rush and Optical, Magnetic Man, Camo & Krooked, High Contrast, Andy C, and Netsky.

Beyond Wonderland 2011 [Caterpillar's Garden Line Up Update: Joker & MC Nomad Added]

UK dubstep/grime producer Joker and MC Nomad have been confirmed and added to the already huge line up for the Caterpillar's Garden stage at Beyond Wonderland, which features the devastating subsonic sounds of dubstep and drum & bass. This young producer, in his early 20s, is known for his groovy and melodic tracks. He's been up and coming in the dubstep/grime scene as a producer these past three years with releases on labels such as Tectonic, Hench, Hyperdub, and his very own Kapsize. Check out his hit track "Purple City" below!

Here's what the Beyond Wonderland site had to say about Joker:

The Caterpillars Garden gets the addition of one of today's rising Grime and Dubstep stars. Joker has only been in the spotlight since 2008 but since bursting onto the scene he has released a relentless stream of hits. Artists like Little Boots, Jon Spencer and Simian Mobile Disco have all been more than willing to have their tracks remixed by this tastemaker.

Please join us in welcoming Joker and MC Nomad to the Beyond Wonderland 2011 lineup.

For the rest of the Caterpillar's Garden line up, which includes big names in the drum & bass and dubstep scene like Noisia, Datsik, and Netsky, click here to check it out.

Beyond Wonderland 2011 [Trailer]

Beyond Wonderland [Insomniac Events] : Official | Tickets
If Johnny Depp shows up in his whole Mad Hatter garb I'm going to go bonkers. I wonder if there will be secret underground tunnel entrances for super special and magical ticket holders. Will Alice consume the bottles labeled "DRINK ME" and cake aptly titled "EAT ME". Is there going to be a blue caterpillar on top of a giant mushroom in the Caterpillars Garden smoking a hookah. Do we have to attend the tea party in order for us to get to the Queens Domain? None of these answers are questioned in the official trailer. There is however a yummy audible treat titled Space Junk which accompanies the stellar visuals.

Beyond Wonderland 2011 [Queens Domain: Line Up]

Beyond Wonderland : Official | Queens Domain | Tickets
For those of you who may have been on the fence about attending this years Beyond Wonderland [Insomniac], the following line up for the Queens Domain might be the kicker to help you make up your mind. Having experienced Kaskade's amazing sets throughout last year he has yet to disappoint me. I witnessed Dirty South mix and match different parts of my favorite songs during last years Coachella and was in awe of the creativity of mixing style. Calvin Harris performed what most described as a near perfect set during last years Hard Haunted Mansion. fabricated gave me the heads up on Funkagenda's background and piano skills and I'm excited to see him for the first time. Adrian Lux's Teenage Crime was in constant iTunes rotation ever since it came out last summer. PeaceTreaty has gone from creating an awesome remix for Laidback Luke, signing with Dim Mak, rocking the main stage at Avalon, and now they're performing at one of Southern California's most treasured massives, Beyond Wonderland. Together with the incredible line up for the Caterpillars Garden, Madhatters Castle, and Chess Village this is beginning to look a lot like an event that you don't want to miss. - Nativity

Infrasonics - Volume 7

If you haven't seen my last post about Beyond Wonderland 2011's bass music stage Caterpillars Garden line up, check it out here! And there's been quite a few releases this week, so let me share with you some of what I came across while browsing around the stores and what not.

Sepalcure – Fleur EP [Purchase: Bleep | Juno | Beatport]

No Think by sepalcure

Big release from these New York based producers on Hotflush Recordings. Very chilled out and deep dubstep tracks, these tracks have a lot of ambient sounds along with dark sounding drums and expressive basslines. I highly suggest this release.

Eddie K, Beezy, Minus / Jakes, D Minds – Serial Killa (D Minds Remix) / Gold Chain [Purchase: Juno | Beatport]

Serial Killa D Minds re edit by D-Style

Here's two massive drum & bass tracks that were released a few days ago on DStyle Records. If you haven't heard the original dubstep version of "Serial Killa", I suggest checking that out too. The D Minds remix of "Serial Killa" is just a drum and bass banger that gets into a drumstep part and you'll just wanna jump up and down while hearing this track. "Gold Chain" is also a massive track worth checking out.

Jakwob at Cinespace 1|25|11 [Concert Review]

My brother [e]ccentric, Ms. Nightfox, the LOL Man, and I made the drive up to Cinespace last Tuesday evening for a night of infrasonics and bass thumping music[don't worry fabricated you're joining us for the next show]. For those of you who have been keeping up with our posts you've seen our support for this young and talented UK producer, Jakwob. We've interviewed him to see what his plans were for his label Boom Ting Records and we were treated to an exclusive Hip Hop mix that was aired last month for Dank Radio. So you can imagine the amount of anticipation we had to finally see him make his Los Angeles debut.

Beyond Wonderland 2011 [Caterpillars Garden: Line Up]

Beyond Wonderland : Official | Caterpillars Garden | Tickets

So I've been feeling pretty sick this whole week because of a combination of lack of sleep, long school hours, overpriced food on campus, and being around other sick people, but finding out the drum & bass/dubstep stage line up for Beyond Wonderland 2011 got me stoked (not to mention also feeling a little better about being sick)! For those of you who don't know, Beyond Wonderland is a music festival held in San Bernadino, CA by Insomniac Events, which many people in the electronic music scene in North America would know, are responsible for such events like Nocturnal, Audiotistic, Together As One (on New Year's Eve) and the more well-known and famous Electric Daisy Carnival.

The confirmed line-up for the Caterpillars Garden (dubstep/drum&bass/bass music stage) as of right now is:
