DEADROP MAGAZINE This Is the First Edition of Deadrop Magazine DEADROP MAGAZINE This is the first edition of deadrop magazine. We will be covering the lat- est news around the dub- step and drum and bass genres. We will interview upcoming producers as well as producers who already have a big name in the music world. A subscription to deadrop magazine keeps you up to date around everything you want to know about your favourite music gen- res. I hope you enjoy reading this magazine as much as I did creating it. Job Poels 2 3 IN THIS EDITION Interview Rameses B 6 Deadrops Spotlight - Liquicity 10 A new day, a new subgenre 16 Upcoming events 24 Deadrops recomendations - Skrillex “Bangarang” 26 4 first of all, How did you come up with the name Rameses B? RAMESES B It’s actually my real name - Rameses Booth Okay cool. For how long have you been producing music? And when was the mo- ment you decided that your songs were good enough to post online? I started in 2003 when a friend of mine gave me a ps2 game called Music Generator 2. I was instantly hooked! I was never off it and just loved putting sounds together. Of course for the first few years it was pretty much experimen- tation with sounds and learning by listening to other pieces of music. But I decided to carry it on as my future pro- fession so I applied for Leeds College of music, passed with 3 distinctions and then went to study creative sound and music technology at university. While the music I made before university was still kind of sketchy it’s when I started uni in 2009 that I took a new musical direction and decided to create youtube and facebook accounts to push my music out there. I had my old music up before this, but I was posting up my newer stuff on youtube in 2010 and that’s when I got in touch with mrsui- cidesheep to promote my original ‘New Hori- zons’, then it progressed from there Okay awesome! As a producer I really wonder what plugins and programs you use for producing music. Could you tell us about the one’s you use? Obviously I can’t give away all my secrets but the ones I use mainly in my tracks are Massive, Sylenth1 and Nexus along with a great sampler called Kontakt. These are the ones I use to make my synths basses and leads, layer them up. I understand. Another question, what is your view on mainstream electronic mu- sic? Does it inspire you? And do you think He is one of the big names within his gen- the mainstream music will get influenced res. He doesn’t create the typical ‘dirty’ by genres like drum and bass and dub- step? dubstep nor does he creat cliche drum All music inspires me. I think it’s important to and bass. And that is what makes him a understand that mainstream music is just de- great producer. Ofcourse I was really glad signed to connect with a much larger audience when he agreed to do an online interview. but the way electronic musicians like 6 7 DJ Fresh and Deadmau5 etc manage to fit their own style to a larger population than many underground artists I think is a great achieve- ment and it’s worth taking inspiration from. At the same time I’m sure they take influence from the drum and bass scene and more under- ground cultures I mean that’s how it all started out so it’s always great to go back to your roots and implement it into your new style of produc- tion. Okay that’s cool. Another thing that really interests me is the way you got the recog- nition for your music. You didn’t have any managers that promoted you with media like tv etc. Did you choose on purpose not to have any of this ‘old-fashioned’ promo- tion. Or was it something that happened ocasionally? I used to apply to a lot of labels, emails, post etc but I never had any luck with them so I just decided to do things myself and see how far I got. Luckily I made the right choice about being independent because now I can sign different songs to different labels so there’s a lot of free- dom. I think the internet is a great tool and I have it to thank for my progress over the years since it brings labels, artists and listeners to- gether through sharing and social networking. Cool One final question, can you tell the readers of the magazine about your up- coming plans in music? At the moment I plan to release a few singles, start work on an EP with heavier music for the dance floor and then work on an album after that. I will also look into selling some merchan- dise such as T-shirts and hoodies. There’s a lot going on at the moment and a lot of work to do if I want to achieve those goals and reach higher prospects. I know where I want to go and I can get there if I keep at it, with the help of so much support from listeners such as yourself it makes it a whole lot more enjoyable So thank you and good luck with your school assignment, you better get a high mark Rameses. Thanks for the interview! Interview by Job Poels 88 9 Deadrops spotlight iquicity promote Liquid, Ambi- Lent & Drum and Bass. They are a unique channel within the drum and bass world. This is because they have an constant unique style of drum and bass songs. And this is not just it.

  • Garage House Music Whats up with That
    Garage House Music whats up with that Future funk is a sample-based advancement of Nu-disco which formed out of the Vaporwave scene and genre in the early 2010s. It tends to be more energetic than vaporwave, including elements of French Home, Synth Funk, and making use of Vaporwave modifying techniques. A style coming from the mid- 2010s, often explained as a blend of UK garage and deep home with other elements and strategies from EDM, popularized in late 2014 into 2015, typically mixes deep/metallic/sax hooks with heavy drops somewhat like the ones discovered in future garage. One of the very first house categories with origins embeded in New York and New Jersey. It was named after the Paradise Garage bar in New york city that operated from 1977 to 1987 under the prominent resident DJ Larry Levan. Garage house established along with Chicago home and the outcome was home music sharing its resemblances, affecting each other. One contrast from Chicago house was that the vocals in garage house drew stronger impacts from gospel. Noteworthy examples consist of Adeva and Tony Humphries. Kristine W is an example of a musician involved with garage house outside the genre's origin of birth. Also understood as G-house, it includes very little 808 and 909 drum machine-driven tracks and often sexually explicit lyrics. See likewise: ghettotech, juke house, footwork. It integrates components of Chicago's ghetto house with electro, Detroit techno, Miami bass and UK garage. It includes four-on-the-floor rhythms and is normally faster than a lot of other dance music categories, at approximately 145 to 160 BPM.
