"itz bangin' all the way through. great mix. need a hard copy!"--DJ Whizard (LA)

"You guys have done it again. This mix has not left my cd player since the day after the World. Great stuff guys, I am proud to say that we have the best D&B crew on the west coast. Thanks for melting my face off once again."--Danny the Junglist (Compression Head)

"This is a very well produced and entertaining mix. The tunes are straight raved the f out imo (which I enjoy btw). But I really did want to make a point that Colonels MCing is absolutly fucking exceptional on this! Honestly one of the best MC performances on a mix that I've heard in a long while. Very original and very diverse. MC's should take note."--Odyssey DnB (Monterey)

"It is the fire, esp beginning until about 20-25min mark. If you can jungle step in a car while driving, that's what i was doing in my head on my drive home yesterday. Someone at a stop light asked what I was listening to . . .I pulled the CD out the deck and said here take it, check it out . . .this is some Bay Area Drum N Bass!!"--Hapapride (Bayraves)

"mix does exactly what it says on the tin. Not the type of thing I'd usually listen to (on purpose), but, not entirely unlistenable either, which says more than 99% of the jumpup mixes I've heard."--Focusyn (DOA)

2 Cents & the Colonel: WODNB Mix 2010

WE'RE BACK!


2 CENTS and THE COLONEL MC are back with another purefire mix CD for the World of Drum and Bass. Like their previous mixes for the WoDNB and XYZ's B2B Mix Sessions, this is 60 minutes of high-wire mixing and rhetorical ridonkulousness. Calling out the REBOOT, this mix also celebrates the rebirth of COMPRESSION as the premiere San Francisco DnB party and shows off the rowdy, flowing funk for which that legendary night is known.

Laced with 2 CENTS dubs and the freshest tracks from Formation, Technique, Ganja and V Recordings, this is, as the COLONEL calls it, the EPIDEMIC ILLNESS. Get your download on (or look for a hardcopy at the World of DnB Miami or an upcoming COMPRESSION), crank the bass, crank the volume, and get ready to BOUNCE!

BADNB at its finest. COMPRESSION styles to the fullest. 2 CENTS and the COLONEL MC World of Drum and Bass 2010.

February 19: BRYAN GEE RETURNS TO COMPRESSION

BRYAN GEE

BRYAN GEE


MOTHERFUCKIN

BRYAN GEE!


Holy fucking shit, it's the DUKE of drum and bass, BRYAN GEE. As head honcho of COMPRESSION'S all-time favorite record label, V RECORDINGS, BRYAN GEE discovered and signed everyone from RONI SIZE to KRUST to DJ DIE to DJ MARKY from Brazil.

As a DJ, though, GEE proves time and again that nobody DJs drum and bass as well as him. The man is a motherf*cking drum and bass WIZARD. A larger-than-life, stoned to the bejeesus belt, upside-down NINJA of ultimate bass funkification. And just like he's been rocking his legendary London club night MOVEMENT for the last decade, GEE is coming to COMPRESSION once again to remind everyone of just how that sh*t is done.

Check out a blistering recent live set from BRYAN GEE here:

Or peep out a mix of V RECORDINGS classics, performed here on Grooverider's radio show a few months back (at a little after the hour mark):

ALSO PERFORMING:

DANNY THE WILDCHILD

COMPRESSION also welcomes back resident DANNY THE WILDCHILD. Another drum & bass legend, the WILDCHILD has been rocking stateside audiences like a hurricane for well over 15 years. Chopping, scratching, flipping and otherwise FUNKING UP the turntables in ways you never thought possible, the WILDCHILD takes the bouncingest tracks you ever heard and bounces them harder.

Like BRYAN GEE, the WILDCHILD is only ever aimed at rocking the dancefloor. So limber up! This night is going to work your shit out!

Get at DANNY the WILDCHILD'S classic "JUNGLE BOOK" mix here:

Also on the night are COMPRESSION resident badasses 2 CENTS, LUKEINO, MC AX!OM and THE COLONEL MC.And check it: this is the Colonel's first night back after a three-month hiatus with his new baby girl, so look for that man to lose his mind and RIP SHIT UP!

IN THE RUKKUZ ROOM:

TRILLBASS



We bring you bass warrior, SWYTCH of TRILLBASS. His mission is to rock a party with SUPER BASS. Swytch is just one of the four members of the crew that has defined a new sound in the world of Dubstep for the past few years.

With releases on labels all over the world, Including Rottun Recordings (Can), Shift Recordings (U.S), Ruff Records (France), Code of Arms (U.S) and their own 'Trillbass Records' Vinyl label, This crew continues to push their futuristic take on the dubstep genre to the basshead masses worldwide. Alongside a large collection of Digital releases and mixtapes, they continue to be known for their dirty bass, impeccable production, and incredible live shows.

MARK INSTINCT


Just to kick it up a notch Rukkuz is also bringing out MARK INSTINCT …Who is touring the US this year and bringing Solid Basslines to every event..The release "Sketchy Maxx" was in Digital Tunes and Trackitdown top 10 for 3 weeks running. It has since been remixed by the likes of Emu, Pawn, Richie August, RSK, Kellydean, Trillbass + more!

Having been signed to Aufect, Rottun and Betamorph Recordings for a load of forthcoming material, as well as an EP on Shift and an album on Trillbass, I'm sure you'll be seeing this name all over the place soon. To top this, Enough of the chat, time to get your bassbins pumpin.

Also to make sure Rukkuz is pushing the speakers in 103 harriet SYMBL aka Arsenic from Evol Intent is gonna be dropping BOMBS that night as well. Dubstep’s gnarly producer Symbl has the knowledge of sub-bass and homicidal basslines, Symbl has been given multiple releases on Trill Bass and other top shelf dubstep labels.

Then we add the local heavy low end of NTRLD (Rukkuz, Badman Press, BrapDem), COMPRESSION'S own DJ IVRY with MC Child and Enhale on the MIC?!?!?!?! The Rukkuz room is guaranteed to bring that bump to move your gurls rump.

AND IN THE GET-SEXY ROOM

COMPRESSION's own DJ HAVOC will join DJ MEASURES and friends for that perfect in-between butt-shaking funk. Hip-hop to bassline and house music to B-more, the Get-Sexy room remains the place to grab a drink, grab a spot on the floor and then grab some ASS. HEYO!!

LOVEVOLUTION IS HERE

Music parades, naked men, outdoor drinking, outdoor smoking, freaks, geeks, lovers, haters, drugs, dancing and general rowdiness is what makes San Francisco what is it. So make sure you get your ass out on OCTOBER 3 and come spend the day with BADNB and COMPRESSION as we take part in a San Francisco classic: LOVEVOLUTION.

The BADNB float will be in full fx all day from 11:30 a.m. when it's just about time to crack open that first beer of the day and pop that first ecstasy pill, until 8:30 p.m. when you are feeling so crazy that you can't even remember what your mamma's name is. Compression stars will help keep the day going with DJ Sharp playing at 1:30 p.m., DJ Lukeino playing at 6:50 p.m., and 2Cents closing out the night at 7:30 p.m. The Colonel MC and MC Ax!om will be hosting the event. See you there, and MAKE SURE YOU BRING EARPLUGS. (Full lineup after the jump.)

When LOVEVOLUTION finishes and you are not ready to go home because the 10th ecstasy pill you took has just kicked in and you just smoked a joint that is making you see colors, don't despair, just walk your trippin ass over to 6th Street for the LOVEVOLUTION AFTERPARTY AT CLUB 6.



That's right, there is a fucking AFTERPARTY that goes until 3 a.m. and is just blocks from the Civic Center. Staring DJ PENDULUM, this party is not to be missed.

You can sleep when you die, so for now, come spend the day with us and while you will likely wake up with a wicked headache the next day, your mouth tasting like a bum's asshole, sleeping next to one or more people you have never seen before, you will not regret a moment of it.

STAY LOW with Compression Crew

Our good friends at REFLEX are throwing a new monthly throw-down called STAY LOW, and COMPRESSION crew is stoked to be involved on the inagural night.

Roll out to UNDERGROUND SF (two blocks east of our LOWER HATER headquarters) and check the bouncing sounds of 2 CENTS, SHARP, MC AX!OM, and THE COLONEL. Also on the night are REFLEX bossman (and SF promoter extraordinaire) LUKEINO, BIG SOUNDS, MC ZEZO, and SF's newest DnB upstart, ESKAE. As always, this will be bootie-rockin BIG BEATS, even BIGGER BASS, and the sort of sexy-ass antics you expect from Compression Crew.



$5 ALL NIGHT, insanely stiff, cheap drinks, and all the hands-in-the-air drum and bass you can stand. COMPRESSION HEADS, COME THROUGH--WE MISS YOU!!

Compression Crew this Week in San Francisco

What a weekend. Hardcore Porn went off and was one of the best parties to hit Underground SF. Check out the pictures:




Check the rest of the pictures at Here


Yo, with the club still on hiatus, check out COMPRESSION CREW this week on Friday and Saturday at UNDERGROUND SF.


On Friday, 2 Cents (Aye~n and Mal) and the Colonel will be closing things out at BASSISM, Tommy Lexxus' monthly dedicated to dubsteb, drum and bass, and all things wobbly. It's a family affair, so stop by, get drunk for cheap, take advantage of the smoking chamber out back, and then GO NUTZ. It's been three weeks since the crew has played, so look for a shit ton of new tracks from Aye~n and Mal, and a pocketful of new rhymes from the Colonel. . .

Then, on Saturday, something new. The first party from Compression favorites, THE BEETS!, known appropriately as HARDCORE PORN.

This should be awesome. The first half of the night features pimps ELI GLAD (from Emily Betty's hot new night, YOUNGBLOODZ) and NEW YNGSTRZ (of Radboys fame), dropping that dirty dirty electro biznass. Then, once everyone is lubed up, the COMPRESSION CREW and THE BEETS! are joining forces for a 6x2 drum and bass fuckfest. You KNOW the BEEES! always pack the house with their YAHTZEE CREW, so look for a rowdy club filled with of stylish hotties and dubious freaks.

LOWER HATERS ALL WEEKEND BABY, WHAT WHAT!!

Summer of Madness: SS and TALI

IT'S THE BIG ONE, MOTHAFUCKAS!! Representing Formation and the World of Drum and Bass: DJ SS and MC TALI

What else is there to say about the one like SS? Head of Formation records, producer of legendary tracks like LIGHTER, ringleader of the World of Drum and Bass tour: SS is one of THE primary moving forces in Drum and Bass as we know it. He's also Professor Emeritus of Compression and has absolutely TORN the club to the GROUND everytime he's played.

SS has said Compression is one of his very favorite places to play in the world, and that Compression heads are amongst the nuttiest (and, likely, the drunkest). Get ready as the fucking DON, the fucking DUKE of DnB returns to wreck shop!!


At his side on this very special night is quite likely the world's greatest female MC, TALI. You might know her from the Lyric on her Lip, or from her work with Krust and Die as part of I, Kamanchi, or from her work touring with Roni Size, or maybe from her amazing performance (alongside SS) at the World of DnB, San Francisco last year. But even if you don't, TRUST, she's an amazing MC, full of lyrics, song, and great, soulful vibes. We're stoked to have her in the house, so roll out and see how a professional do!!

Support on the night from Compression Residents 2Cents and the Colonel MC.

Doors open at 10pm; $5 before 11.
Drink specials all night long
Second room with DOWN LIKE THAT DJ'S, featuring house, electro, and other less crazy beats.

HONEYBEAR LOVES YOU!!!

Summer of Madness: July is RIDICULOUSLY ILL.

HOOOOOOOLY SHIT!! CHECK OUT JULY, MOTHERFUCKAAAAAAAS!!!

Summer of Madness: DJ Aries AND Danny the Wildchild.

OOOF!! After the ruckus in the basement last week, you were probably hoping for a reprive, maybe a little easy listening and warm tea with which you could soothe your aching mojo. But sorry, Compression Headz, this is the SUMMER OF MADNESS, and it's time to get it on proper, COMPRESSION STYLE.

So say hello to my lil' fren, DANNY THE WILDCHILD

From the dawn of the Junglistic States, DANNY THE WILDCHILD has been there--a DJ above all others, able to take your record bag and make it rock like you never imagined. Armed with tricks and techniques that drum and bass DJ's just aren't supposed to have, Danny attacks the decks, busting out rapid-fire mixes that result in a set that's more than the sum of its parts. He never fails to leave Compression in ruins, so this Thursday night, come down, join in the fray, and RECOGNIZE: DANNY THE WILDCHILD, y'all, is the motherfucking SHIT.

But because this is the SUMMER OF MADNESS, we ain't stopping there. Spark the trees, grab your visine, and get ready to skank to the unmistakable sounds of DJ ARIES.

Representing Digital Soundboy and Co-Lab Recordings (among others), Aries specializes in dubwise drum and bass, keeping it roots-based but always fresh as a Humbolt harvest. Hailing from Birmingham, UK, "the Goat" has been remixed by Visionary and TC, applauded by Shy FX, and featured on BBC 1XTRA. Smoke em if you got em, gang (and we know you do), it's time to fucking SWING and SWAY to the sounds of Aries.

Getting everything all toasty for the evening are your opening DJ's, TWO CENTS, with help from the esteemed COLONEL MC

It's the COMPRESSION WRECKING CREW, and you know these fools never played an "opening set" in their lives. Get drunk at home, get there early, and get ready to RUUMMMMMBLE!!

Compression pics by the always fantastic LA LOCA. Smile for her, we want YOU on HERE. And just in case you weren't paying attention to current events, the SUMMER OF MADNESS has started off like this like THIS:







Only $5 all night long! Topless ladies free! HONEY BEAR LOVES YOU.

GOLDIE

Check out the rest of La Loca's photos HERE



Drum and Bass' original rockstar GOLDIE returns to COMPRESSION for another spectacular night of true school beats. He's probably a big part of the reason you're into drum and bass, so I don't need to tell you. This will be special, this will be big, this will be GOLDIE at COMPRESSION.
