GET LOW turns 3 this Thursday in a massive celebration at their Vagabond home with the legendary GOTH-TRAD and returning warriors TRUTH. If you've been on the invite, you'll know we're curating a compilation of some of South Florida's finest producers in honor of the occasion. It will feature tributes, exclusive dubs and rare tracks from great artists like ADAMES, ANIMAL KRACKERZ, ARK IX, BATS!, GRAY GHOST, HENRY KRINKLE, JUAN BASSHEAD, JUMANJI, KRACKER JAX, MAGOULA, MIAMI BASS WARRIORS (OTTO VON SCHIRACH/JOSE EL REY), NEVER YAWN, NOME, RACKUP & PINION, SOMEJERK and SOUNDUO!
The first 100 people to arrive at (((SHAKE)))'s big Birthday event this Thursday, June 7th, will receive exclusive access to the album! To wet your appetite, the badman BATS! has leaked this big tune, "DOUBLE TALK" for FREE download!
Here's a fresh video (that kicks off at The Vagabond) for NOME's contribution to the comp. Directed by Mike Moreno, it was filmed in 6 hours with no script and no budget on the 6th day of WMC, so you know they were party-exhausted while shooting this. They stuck to the shoot and came up with magic. Watch and share the GET LOW MC's video for "MAGICMAN FT. [DJ NOYL]" which he also produced, and make sure you're one of the hundred to get a copy of the compilation this Thursday! Win free tickets to the event on the Sweat Records blog! Doors open at 10pm, see you there.

If you're new to dubstep and bass music in Miami then you may not be aware of the party that we call Down. If you are familiar, read anyways 'cause this shit took a while to write!
In 2010 Gooddroid got together with a couple of Miami selectors that supported the deeper shades of dubstep, with the intent of providing a place to dance and hang out that you're not going to feel so bro'd out all night. After moving to a couple of venues, Bar Black became the home and many, many Sunday nights were spent drinking cheap beer, skanking out, playing Scrabble and video games!
With guests such as Scuba, Djunya, FaltyDL, Joe Nice, Scuba, Headhunter, Distance, Brenmar, Nick Argon and the best local talent, the night was solidified as the spot to hear deep dubstep, garage and future bass. Unfortunately Bar Black had to close it's doors to the public, just as I joined as a regular resident, and we've been pretty sad ever since.
After a period of time and effort, we've located our new home, in the side room at the newly renovated Eve, just around the corner from our previous home. While we may have changed homes, our passion for deep bass music hasn't, and we are very proud and excited to see our regulars, and new faces, every other Sunday starting September 11th.
Here are mixes from our residents, to give you a taste of what we have done, and what is to come.
Once again, Down returns on Sunday, September 11th at the side room at Eve nightclub (1306 N Miami Ave.), with no cover for everyone that's 18+ with residents somejerk, Gooddroid, Ashworth and Gray Ghost spinning the dopest and deepest in dubstep, garage, future bass and everything in between.
