[Listen] Jahson Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Brostep Vampires & Womp Zombies

DJ Jahson, of Philly’s own Solomonic Sound, brings you this awesome Dubmix as a stream on Mixcloud. According to Solomonics Blog, once the mixclouds page hits 500 streams they will free up the mix as a download. So listen it steady!

Jahson Rids the World of the Evil Curse of the Brostep Vampires & Womp Zombies by Dj Jahson (Solomonic Sound) on Mixcloud

Paying respects to the original dub pioneers and foundations of reggae music, Jahson has built a mix of modern day dub reggae, digital dub, uk steppers, and dubstep. With the Bass Culture party in Vermont, he introduced this blend of sounds to the massive for over 2 years… However during that time, the genre known as DubStep also morphed into a commercial soulless bastard stepchild commonly known as BroStep. Fed up, he decided to do something about it and laid out the plans for a musical assasination.

When the mix was done, the idea came up to do a twist on the cover art from the rare classic dub album ‘Scientist Rids the World of the Curse of the Evil Vampires’.
