New York based dj and producer CURL UP dropped his latest EP with Subdrive on April 5th. The EP encompasses influences from punk, metal, bass, hardcore, juke, and slaps them into a dirty package that will have clubs raging.
Doctor Jeep’s remix takes the titular track Brain Damage into darker and ambient bass, while Mr. Vega adds his moombahton touch to his remix. CURL UP’s Brain Damage deathjuke VIP kicks the tempo up and throws the already crazy tune into overdrive.
With support from Kanji Kinetic, Udachi, StereoHeroes, Sazon Booya, Doctor Jeep, and more.
Out Now Everywhere
We’re excited to announce the signing of our newest artist, Maryland based musician Chooky, and his debut Subdrive release “The Score”.
The title track, “The Score”, is a big room moombahcore tune with crazy builds, even bigger pads and drops that make it perfect for peak time play. To flip the vibe, the second track “Sour Nectar” opens with melancholic chords that slowly build to a laid back dubsteppish sound.
With an ear for incredible mixing and production styles that span the gamut of electronic music, Chooky is an artist to watch.

The long awaited remixes of Terror Dactel’s massive anthem DEF have arrived with remixes from Mr. Vega + Kid Cedek, Trick Folexxx, and Curl Up.
Our newest signing, curl up, just dropped his debut EP with us on Friday. “Biomechanical” crosses all genres, mixing sounds from rave, hardcore, moombahton, cumbia, dubstep, and fidget. It’s a crazy EP and definitely a reason to keep an eye and ear out for curl up.
To add fuel to the fire, Diplo just recently dropped curl up’s first single with us “Driplo” on his “BLOW YOUR HEAD” SiriusXM show. Click here to hear the mix.
You can download the “Biomechanical” EP for FREE from SoundCloud right here. Be sure to follow us and curl up, and keep it posted as he’ll be releasing more in the next year!
We’re psyched to announce that the mysterious (depending on where you look) futurist magnate Vanguard Bots has released his debut single, “Codex Loss”, with Subdrive this weekend. It’s a cut from his forthcoming AudioLucinogens EP coming out later this summer. The tune is a contrast to our past stuff, but a nod to our commitment of the cutting edge of darker electronic music.
“Codex Loss” is a post-apocalyptic anthem with grinding bass, compressed and distorted drums, and an attitude that heralds the arrival of the Singularity.
His debut EP will feature more fantastic tunes in the vein of “Codex Loss” as well as collborations with Subdrive crew Terror Dactel and more.
Fans of SebastiAn, Nosaj Thing, Flying Lotus, the Gaslamp Killer take notice….you’ll love Vanguard Bots.

After a long partnership in documenting our events, our dear friend THE CULTURE OF ME is taking the next step and taking on the reigns as a producer and DJ. With gigs at Webster Hall, Happy Ending, and almost every single event in all of New York City including SXSW, THE CULTURE OF ME is on the verge of becoming the next Oakenfold.
We sat down and spoke with CULTURE and spoke about his direction. “My sound is pretty much a combination of snark and bass….yeaa…” he said from his hidden darkroom. “The snarkiness is nastier than any bassline some dubstep guy could make.”
Expect to hear his new release out later this summer called “THIS.” followed by an EP filled with hashtags about stupid people and their actions.
We’re really excited to announce that our newest single is officially out now! SUB008 – NIGHTSTALKER – comes from Sean Krames, better known to the world as the booty-bass, club shaking, COBRA KRAMES. His Subdrive debut, as well as his official debut as Sean Krames, could not be more of a paradigm shift for his sound.
Culling from techno, rave, house, and the darkest corners of underground clubs worldwide, Sean Krames’ debut “NIGHTSTALKER” (w/ Firewalker) sports techno of a darker form. With twisted rave organs, hand-percussion, and builds that tease the crowd, only to drop them into an even bigger groove.
A complete contrast to Krames’ earlier work, his new sound shows his growth as a producer and artist, as well as his versatility and skill with club music.
We’re psyched to share this with you all and we hope you dig it as much as we do! Stream the entire release below, and be sure to pick it up on iTunes now with Juno and Beatport soon to follow!
