We are proud to present you with Dubfluence 5. We are taking Dubfluence in a new direction. We are expanding the music in the mix, no longer just restricted to the ‘deep’ and ‘organic’ sounds of Dubstep. We are adding more ‘Future Garage’, ‘Post Dubstep’ and some ‘Deep House’. With tracks from James Blake, Zomby and SBTRKT along side newcomers such as Skanky, Figgy and more, this is a mix series we really love at the ET HQ.
Things have been manic at Ego Thieves, DJing all over the place and visiting the world on both sides of the pond have made it a tad hard to keep the mixes flowing as much as we would like but FINALLY ‘Dubfluencial 11 – Press Start’ is here.
Its been a fair few months since the last and just because of that we have a bumper edition right here! 30 tracks, yes thats not a mistype, with a huge amount of exclusives. Cycling through the vast variations the Dubstep sound now has to offer, we always trying to bring you a bit of everything. Some Ego Thieves favorites are back with the likes of Stinkahbell, Mojo, Psyam, The Widdler, Cookie Monsta and many more, as well as a few fresh new faces of course that im sure will soon be Dubstep household names.
To celebrate the launch of the official JC Adams online store, we have decided to put together an exclusive Jungle mix. No matter whether your into Hip Hop, Dubstep, Grime or even R&B, its very hard to avoid the influences Jungle has in today’s music.
This to me, was the first great leap in UK underground dance music. I was just 12 years old when I purchased my first Jungle vinyl from Black Market Records and fell in love instantly! Huge bass-lines, 160bpm, Reggae chords and big vocals, what is there not to love?

First and foremost Happy New Year! 2011 already… and it couldn’t of come any sooner. 2010 was a mass of ups and downs for so many reasons, but for Ego Thieves it was huge!
Now, on the first day of the year, here is POP! Dubfluencial 6. Bringing you exactly what you expect, combining the commercial appeal of pop music marriaged with the harsh lfo frequencies of Dubstep. Showcasing some new comers such as Habstrack and Flith Colins along side Ego Thieves favorites such as Stinkahbell, Borgore, Mojo and many more.
Dubfluencial 10 aka Enter The Dub has landed. Its been a fair few months since the last one and nothings changed. Mixed by the Ego Thieves (Jenai & Drama), expect lots of hard, soulful and some of the dirtiest bass around. Dubstep has gained huge popularity which is making it more appealing to new producers. Lots im afraid are not making the cut.
We love our midrange sound, but we also love quality control. Here is our pick of what sound we love, a whole variety of it. Huge exclusives from the likes of Borgore, Funtcase, Stinkahbell, Roksonix, J.Rabbit and more, this is a mix not to be missed. Please note it is not for the feint hearted or made for laptop speakers. Go find yourself a dirty big system, or sneakily plug it in at your local Dixons store, and get yourself skanking out like never before.
Im always shocked to find out how popular our Pop Dub series is. SO many of appreciate and love the combined sounds of tracks you know with a Dubstep twist. Things are really elevating for this sound too. From Katy B and Magnetic Man putting out huge original vocal tracks to Rusko rumoured to be working on tracks for Britney Spears. Let alone not forgetting our resident Dubstep superstar Borgore (love him or hate him!) who is pushing the sound of Dubstep/Gorestep to a massive audience.
Dubfluence has to be one of my first loves on Ego Thieves (Even if I say so myself). The debate on many a forum on what is Dubstep and what is not is so beyond tedious its a joke. I have said it before and I will say it again, I love all aspects of Dubstep. I love to go out and DJ and drop some nasty mid range wobble, some dirty Subs and some, just out there crazy tunes.
Then I love to come home, grab some food, pick up my Macbook and chill out to the amazing musical talents that Is Burial, James Blake, Phaeleh and more. This mix is full of Deep vibes, lots of Soul and lots of Sub. Don’t listen to it on your laptop…bring out the big speakers or get those headphones on and enjoy.
Dirrrtee Ego is a collaboration between Ego Thieves and clothing label Dirrrtee.com. A musical journey, highlighting some of the best tracks of the year all mixed by our very own Jenai. This was given away free at various events around london (Such as The Reset etc) but was never relased for public download on Ego Thieves…until now. 35 tracks from House to Garage, this is truly a non stop party mix.
Now as if free downloads and ten brand new mixes isn’t enough? Inside this download is an EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT code to be used on Dirrrtee.com. Vaild for a month today, you can grab a huge 30% off when you spend only £35. Big ups to James at Dirrrtee and all the fam.
Though I was born in ’83, the 90s is where it all started. Only now can we really look back and appreciate the vast quality of music that came out then. Pop music was about pushing boundaries, not living up to stereotypical views or bowing down to record labels. Songs that shouldn’t of entered the charts did, and topped them as well! Tracks from the underground crossed over to provide a decade of unreal dance music.
The legend and god that is Todd. Nearly every artist and producer I know have nothing but great things to say about one of the pioneers in Dance music, Todd Edwards. From UK Garage to Daft Punk, Todd has had his fingers in many a pie. One of my all time favorite producers, he has created his individual sound that so many have tried to mimic, yet failed. Chopped up samples, cut up vocals along side bouncy bassline and soulful chords… you cant go wrong. This is part one, more to follow.
Here is POP! Goes Dubfluencial 4 (Or Pop Dub for short). We are increasing the amount of tracks we put into our mixes now to bring you an even bigger, more Egotastic (cheesy I know..) experience.
Also this is our first official mix with a wallpaper pack. All super high quality for loads of diff screen sizes as well as a bonus iPhone version for your pixel pleasure. The artwork again is a collaboration between myself and fellow Ego Thief JC Adams.
