Footwerk Loves Bass II – as part of our Halfway to Shambhala showcase
An evening of Bass and Soul

Before dubstep was being played by virtually every big name dj, Lighta! from Vancouver B.C. were bringing relatively unknown artists to North America, such as the Bug, Loefah, and Kode 9, to play underground parties in crowded warehouses and basements to sweaty smiling people about to witness the birth of a new and influential sound. Dubstep has reshaped the face of west coast music and the world of electronic music at large, and Lighta! has been there from the beginning.
Featuring

Max Ulis and Taal Mala

Lighta! Vancouver
Set time -> 11PM – 2AM
Known for showcasing a wide range of styles, Max Ulis has remixed for The Future Sound of London as part of SUB OSC, had his tunes played by ground breaking performer’s such as Joe Nice and Stereotyp, and played alongside the likes of Skream, Filastine, Benga, Dj Vadim, Caspa, Megasoid, Remarc, the Mad Professor, Starkey, Deadbeat and Kode 9. Max’s sets are filled with original creations and exclusive unreleased tracks by some of the most sought after producers in the genre.

Killing sound since ‘97, Taal Mala’s music encompasses a mashup of dubstep, dancehall, ragga jungle, and techno with throbbing basslines, glitched out ragga vibes, turntablism, and complex riddim changes that will warp your perception of dancefloor music.
As a member of the SUB-OSC and Lighta! soundsystems, Taal Mala has buried an excess of tin pan soundboys alongside The Bug, Kode9, Loefah, Rusko, Benga, Skream, Hatcha, Youngsta, Martyn…etc. Taal Mala’s first vinyl 12″, ‘Criminal Youths/Mud Up’ was released on Badman Press Recordings Oct 7th 2010. Other releases include the ‘Dreader Than Dread EP’ also on BadmanPress Recordings, ‘Stakker Humanoid – [Sub-Osc Remix]‘ on Jumpin’ & Pumpin’, Ill Gates & Meesha – Sweatshop [taal mala remix] on Muti Music. Also, forthcoming on Aufect Recordings, is ‘Lenses/Mirrors’.
