Cover songs are still my favorite way for emerging bands to put their own sound on a hit song and get easy attention. However 2012 was for some reason a slow year for cover songs. Luckily a handful of bands did them well and left us with flipped and twisted takes on old classics and net hits alike. Here are my 10 favorites (#1 at the bottom). What did I miss? Read more
♫ Gemini – Crew Love (Drake ft The Weeknd Cover)
Apparently Gemini is a big dubstep producer in the UK but thank goodness he left that at the door while beautifully covering “Crew Love.” Also props for changing up the lyrics so us white people can comfortably sing along.
And we’re back with a chance to play a little catch up. Â This is the first of two Dubstep Roundups we’ll be posting this weekend, so put your bass belts on, cause its going to be a bumpy ride.

♫ Tiesto Wolfgang Gartner & BFTF – We Own The Night (Back From The Future Remix)
♫ Coldplay – Paradise (System Remix) / Been sitting on this one for a few weeks, due to posting several other mixes of the same song.  Shame on me.  Shame on me.
♫ Housse De Racket – Chateau (Gemini Club Remix)
Joel already gave this jam some love but since it’s been banging through my head quite a bit lately I think it deserves some more. We know Gemini Club kill it on the regular but now I’m curious about these two Parisians. All I know is that the song hits like a tornado at 1:52 and my speakers always get maxed out. Jump around!
Its been some time since I’ve dropped some silly bass on your faces.  The Reason: I’ve been working on projects inside and outside of TBE, so its been difficult to mangage time (video clip at the bottom).  Whats awesome: Brandon and I will have some exciting announcements coming up in the next week or so.  For now: Bury your heads in the bass below.
I’ll see you Nurds on the dark side.
