The latest edition of our sister mix series Newtype Rhythms arrives with a bellowing mix of bass ascendance from an equally-rising sonic entity in the form of Kellen303.
A formidable presence in mix sessions from bass heavyweights, the New York-based producer delivers a sound that evolves upon a constantly-mutating strain of bass; touching upon the best of the old ways and combining it with newfound extrapolations in sub-frequency adventurism.
Kellen303’s indelible sonic curiosity garnered releases on bass-appreciative labels such as Keysound Recordings and Darwin’s SPE:C label, building bridges across oceans and encapsulating dancefloors of different textures intercontinentally.
And whilst he’s done his thing in-person at a local Newytype Rhythms event here in the States, it doesn’t compare at all to the sheer excellence one will dive into courtesy of his guest mix for the show. Take a deep dive at 47 minutes in for Kellen303’s mix, with resident Sheepshead warming things up on the low-end from the outset.
