We're teaming up with DubwarNYC for Unsound Festival NYC's Bass Mutations event April 21st this year. 2562, Sepalcure, Teeth, Distal, Nguzunguzu and Throwing Snow will all descend on Brooklyn NY for a night focused on the forefront of the global electronic music scene. Buy your tickets on Resident Advisor before they sell out!

We're lucky enough to have an exclusive mix by one of our favorite new artists, Throwing Snow, to give you a little taste of what to expect earlier on in the night.

The thing I personally love about London based Ross Tones' music is that its constantly in a state of progression. Under the ever so pertinent moniker Throwing Snow, Ross has genre hopped with abandon, somehow maintaining a unique, personal sound. He has received consistent support from some of the UK's top radio show players including Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Sinden, Kiss FM and Ministry of Sound and in December, he released the extremely well received "Too Polite" EP on Local Action records, ...

To preview the line-up for the 2012 CMKY Festival, we enlisted Denver-based producer, DJ, promoter and certified Communikey familia steofan (a.k.a. Steven Dermody) to compile a mix. The end result is a genre-spanning selection of tracks that barrels through early electronic explorations, pulsating Detroit techno, blunted dub riddims and the sort of mercurial experimental musics that this year's Festival program seeks to connect over the course of its 5 days and 25 individual events. It all kicks off April 25th in Boulder, CO; in the meantime, put this mix in your headphones and check out what we have in store...

Late 2010 to early 2011 brought one of the harshest New York winters to date - one that would afford two long-time friends Alberto Hernandez and Andrew Siedenburg the perfect environment to focus their productions as Background Sound. The depth of their sound falls beneath the layered samples, washed over sub-basses and tightly locked rhythms, toward something more visceral. These guys have been making waves here in NYC for the past year with their solid productions and constant support of the scene. Keep an ear out for them in 2012.
