Bassnectar announces new EP “WildStyle”

 Got an e-mail from Lorin himself today announcing to his fans that his latest creations were made with us in mind,

 ”This week i finished the latest Bassnectar EP, ‘Wildstyle’ which is the most bonkers collection of music i’ve ever created. Each song was crafted with you in mind, and how your body and soul will be affected when the waves of this music are crashing through your cells. We will have more info soon with regards to release, but it will definitely become centerpiece of the fall soundtrack. “

I don’t know about you, but I’m oozing with excitement for this to drop…Also, if you’re in the 305 like my blessed self, then you’re about to get rocked in the face by the master dub himself next Friday at the Fillmore Miami Beach. Stay tuned for a play by play of the concert (hope to have it posted the next day after the show but this will depend on how hung over I am)
