?????????? On his tenth album, Noise vs. Beauty, Lorin Ashton's message to the public is hinted at through the title. In a recent fan Q&A;, he discussed "the spectrum between highly opposing extremes like the noise of pop/mainstream EDM (which I feel alienated by) and the beauty of deep, meaningful music which stirs your soul...

Low-end theorist Bassnectar's tenth LP is his most mature. Known mostly for extremes of sternum-caving bass, the festival star balances out his sound here with ominous strings ("F U N"), an Edge-y guitar line ("You & Me") and a trap-inspired banger that sounds like Dr. Dre's G-funk played on a crystal flute ("Don't Hate the 808"). Bassheads should celebrate too: The drops still sound like robot Pantera.

Amorphous Here's the genius of Bassnectar: The DJ-producer was one of dubstep's early adapters and now that the genre has exploded, he could've cashed in--but, instead, his latest drop, Vava Voom, is already onto the next, careening into the future while taking a very non-nostalgic survey of his past. Here, he builds a dance track out of the sound of a ping-pong ball ("Ping Pong") and he makes a banger from a snippet of laughter ("Laughter Crescendo")...

It's characteristic for Bassnectar to throw down classic Nirvana or NIN within a high-energy DJ set of bombastic bass beats. It's no surprise, then, to hear elements of punk and metal on Va Va Voom via a subtle, bass-y reworking of Pennywise's "Bro Hymn" ("Pennywise Tribute") and samples from Bassnectar's high school death metal band ("Chronological Outtakes"). Lorin Bassnectar manipulates borders through music, be they genre-specific, political or otherwise...

"This is the story of the Honey Tree. You can read along in the book. You'll know to turn the page when you hear this...(chimes)." The intro on Bassnectar, aka Lorin Ashton's, first full-length album is a nice homage to read-along childhood books. It also tells us Ashton's connected to the past, as evident from the '90s influence (P.E. samples galore, Orbital-like sounds, classic breaks, etc.) that Mesmerizing the Ultra is soaked in...

This will be the first vinyl release by Bassnectar in over a year! Side A is an 808-driven bassline workout; side AA is a dancefloor stomper with vocals by underground hip-hop star Zumbi (Zion I). You've got to hear this release! It sounds like DnB and dubstep made love and produced a hip-hop baby.

With nearly 150 gigs under his belt each year, as well as collaborating with the likes of Sound Tribe Sector 9 and Michael Kang of the String Cheese Incident, there's a chance that you may have heard about DJ-producer Bassnectar (n'e Lorin Ashton) through one of your patchouli pungent, hacky-sack-playing friends who's allergic to soap and often uses the term 'sick' to describe something cool. (Which is so un-sick...

Bassnectar is the brainchild of String Cheese Incident opener and Burning Man fixture Lorin Ashton, who claims to be more of a metalhead than a hippie but comes across in interviews like the type of guy who got into music as a means of changing the whole entire world and denotes his anti-establishment philosophy with phrases like "Mainstream Culture is the dildo of choice for the apathetic...

Whoever the guy is who records under the name Bassnectar, he's picked a perfectly apt pseudonym. His sound is equally concerned with sweetness and with heavy grooves, and on what appears to be his debut album he's managed to attract an impressive array of like-minded musicians to help him realize his uniquely funkalicious vision...
