Our boy Mikee Woo has been putting in work on the Cardiff club scene for time now and has just set up a new Tuesday night at Buffalo called Signature that is set to make us very happy. This Tuesday coming (1st June) he's got New York Future Garage master Falty DL in the place so we've been busting out his tracks full volume here at Chrome Mansions to get us over hyped. Plus there's support from Don Leisure, Mr Healan and Paul B so looks like the Bank Holiday weekend has just been extended to Wednesday.

Scuse the lack of posts over the last few days... although the Chrome Kids family is growing, at the moment the blog side of things is down to me and this week has been the get ready for uni time. Should be back on it after Wednesday.


Speaking of Uni, last term after a documentary I was working on with somebody else about Dubstep in Wales was wiped off the computer (I know, I know - back that shit up), we quickly had to come up with a plan B and ended up doing a 'mockumentary' on Thugstep - which we described as being a cross between Dirty South and Dubstep (kind of). Well it doesn't suprise me that there are actually people out there calling the tracks their making Thugstep already and it's similar to what we described. I shall be covering a couple of them over the weeks but first I have to give mention to a similar (if not exactly the same) branch of Dubstep - Dirtystep (or Crunkstep maybe). Here represented by New York producers DJ Nebulla and DJ Dore in their 2nd installment of the Dirtystep Mixtape, featuring their own bootleg remixes of artists such as 3:6 Mafia, T.I. and Soulja Boy in a way that elevates the originals greatly and actually gives the 'Dirty' in Dirty South some credence.

and here's a few Direct Links to the individual tracks...

Nebulla & DJ Dore - Crank Dat

DJ Dore & CONstruct - Ay Ay Bay

DJ Dore - Slap

Nebulla & DJ Dore - Stay Fly

Nebulla & DJ Dore - Big Thing Poppin' (Do It)

You can keep up to date by checking the Dirtystep website.

is a great DJ, producer, and graphic designer from Oklahoma who has done some wicked remixes for the likes of Crookers, CSS, Chromeo, Ratatat and Justice… albeit unofficial of course. He manages to tailor his style to best suit each particular song rather than simply doing vocal edits and adding a ton of distortion and his remixes range from Miami Bass & funk carioca to party electro but it’s this crunked up refix of Wine O’s 'Pop My Trunk' with Busy P that caught our Chrome ears.

(YSI) Dr Tron - Pop My Computer (Wino O Vs Busy P)

Also, if you fancy dancing round the room for half an hour with your hands making jabs in the air then check his latest mixtape Mr Flamboyant with Crookers, Wiley, Drop the Lime, Herve and Kardinal Offishall
