Electronic music seems to be growing incredibly fast, so many artists are pushing boundaries and expanding on the ol’ genre limitations that quite frankly had become boring. Over the last few years the new sound of the electronic music landscape has gained a cult following on the West Coast. Los Angeles has become a breeding ground for forward-thinking EDM artists. What is being labeled as the “LA Beat Scene” is a direct reference to Daddy Kev’s Low End Theory club that presents artists like Flying Lotus, Gaslamp Killer, Dstyles, Daedelus, and Nosaj Thing on the regular. Then you also have 12th Planet and his SMOG label who have championed and and developed a massive dubstep scene in LA bringing attention to hometown artists like DLX, EMU, and Pawn.

This feature spotlights former Glitch Mob member, Kraddy for the second time. What appears to be half man and half production machine has hit us with another mash-up of two tracks I truly love creating an ultra pimp super crunk version. The Kraddy Next Level Mash-Up series is a collection of custom mash-ups created specifically for his live sets. This month is a mash up Ray Cash “Sex Appeal” and Rustie & Joker’s “Play Doh” and is the third installment of the series to date. The other two installments of the Next Level Mash-Up series are available at Kraddyodaddy.com. Look for Kraddy’s 5 song EP coming out in October on Alpha Pup of all original material.
