Aka Aka Roar with Appleblim @ Life

A new year and a new night to hit our shores – Aka Aka Roar. They really seem to have hit the nail on the head with their concept:

Amid the rapid commercialisation of dubstep, we are looking towards those artists who are developing the sound and its related sub-genres. With dubstep being heavily influenced by 2step we feel it’s important to look back as well as forwards and dig out those artists and sounds that made the genre what it is today. Brighton has its fair share of dubstep nights, but AKA AKA ROAR is distinct, not only in the artists it welcomes on to the bill, but in its unrelenting attempts to provide a quality night of progressive music at a cheap price. More than being “just another dubstep night”, we look to the broader genre for inspiration. Dubstep has moved on and whether you call it ‘funkstep’, ‘future garage’, ‘Progressive dub’ or even ‘techno’ we love it and we think you will too!

It all kick’s off with the fantastic Appleblim on the 11th of January at Life.

For now here’s a Aka Aka Roar promo mix, from Ben White, to keep you satisfied over the weekend: http://www.mediafire.com/?2ddzqdwmywd.
