Drop The Lime
I've been listening to the bass heavy assault that is the signature of New York City's Drop The Lime for a little while now, after discovering him through his Tigerbeat6label mate and collaborator Kid 606, but for some reason haven't postedon him until now. Some of you may already be well versed as to who DropThe Lime is and what he does, but for those that aren't, the story goesa little something like this.

Luca Venezia aka Drop The Lime is a New York City local, having grownup through the underground NY rave scene, he now contributes back tothe scene from which he was spawned with his own mutated blend ofglitchy 4/4 tracks spiked with grime, house, bmore, electro, anddisgustingly bass heavy techno. Responsible for the famed Trouble and Bass parties along with his partner in crime Mathhead, Drop The Lime also produces and performs as his alter-ego, Curses.Having remixed a huge number of artists, and produced a heap of his ownalbums, EPs and 12"s he's prolific as he is diverse, so do yourself afavour and check out some samples of his work below.

Yes this is true. Shot Shot Hearts is a good album, even some stuff on a Perth Label called Drop Name Records. Same can be said for Girl Talk who used to appear on breakcore compilations years ago. These dudes come from a different angle of the mash-up, is really quite psycho, sometimes very disturbing. Australia has a very good breakcore scene in the weirdest places like Newcastle, Perth & Geelong. Nerd comments ending now.

Respect Dimitri
Yeah, I was talking about what DTL does now more than the breakcore stuff he used to do, but either way he's become well respected for a fairly diverse range of styles over time. Thanks for the heads up though.

He is actually touring Australia. Playing at Revolver on April 4th. Will be interesting to see if there are more people there than who showed up to see him play a free gig with KID 606 at the Espy in late 2006. Well worth seeing.
