Drop the Lime NYC's “Heavy Bass Champion” is one of three members of the Brooklyn based Trouble and Bass crew, which include Drop the Lime/Curses, Math Head/Passions Star Eyes and the
Captain. Three driven and gifted DJs, with a knack for throwing huge parties that have become a staple in NYC. Curses debut 12" Hungry for Love, is an instant hit with electronic music fans and has him playing shows worldwide, as well as this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Drop the Lime is managed by the same company as Girl Talk and Prefuse 73 and has performed alongside the likes of Bassnectar and DJ Z-Trip. This three track 12" is inspired by early 90's dance music, but has all the trimmings of the new sound that has made T&B so popular. “This the Way” starts with a catchy hook of female vocals, which becomes distorted and mashed up throughout the song, Trouble and Bass counterpart Passions/Math Head does something similar on the popular single “Emergency”. The Trouble and Bass crew certainly have a distinct sound that sets them apart in the dance music genre, creating extremely raw and energetic, unpretentious dance music. Staying afloat in a sea of copy cats, ostentatious performances and cut throat music executives, Drop the Lime/Curses and T&B continue to make unique, danceable music, challenging the status quo while simultaneously being a lot of fun.
A Trouble and Bass show is not just a concert, its an initiation. Hipsters, punks, upscale club goers all dressed to the heith of fashion, thrown together to create a highly volatile solution inside NYC venue, Love in Manhattan. To quote Jay-Z “Bass blaring out my system is how I detox” would be a good way to describe the pumped up crowd here, though one need only step inside the door to get high on the wild energy that Drop the Lime and the other T&B members bring as their signature. Hungry for Love uses live sounding drums and electro-synths to create a melting pot of styles; mixing dubstep, heavy bass and grime, unbound by any specific genre, this is music that could only be born out of the dark skyline of Gotham NYC.
