Dragon Dubs Steppas Club

Come see The Coppercat perform at Dragon Dubs Steppas Club at Oasis in Oakland, July 29, 2010.

It’s a low-cost ($6 after 10pm, free before) high-quality Dub, Dubstep, and Reggae-vibed show,

at the Oasis in Oakland, put on by the Dragon Dubs folks.

Oasis is open-air and chill…You’ll be able to smoke a Swisher under the stars and listen to underground dub,

dubstep, ambient, and reggae-influenced hip-hop;

whilst you sip your mojito and contemplate the finer things in life.

I’ll be choosing selections from my latest albums,

including excerpts from the forthcoming Dub Side of Mars double-album from the Crypticon Label!

(so new that nobody outside the Coppercat Labs has heard them…fresh, fresh, fresh!)

A two-hour, looping, semi-ambient Dubstep concept double-album is in production, due for release in late 2010 or early 2011, for Producer/Selector/Graphic Artist Alan Karalian‘s Crypticon Label.  Its theme is deep-space travel and Martian terraformation, and is intended as a response to Snaps Provolone (Karalian) and Slade Brunner‘s (Mike “General” Green) epic The Space Lounge Syndicate, in this author’s opinion, the best underground album of 2007 (Yes, better even than the Coppercat or Bassnectar releases of the same year. It’s that good.)

(The Space Lounge Syndicate explores travel to the Moon and beyond in its inbetween-tracks ambient dialogue, with the substance of the album being minimal, bass and beat-heavy Dub with a massive Hip Hop influence.  It’s reminiscent of Twilight Circus, Saint Germain, the Orb, Boards of Canada, and the Kottonmouth Kings.  Critical for your collection, IMO.)
