THAT'S WHASSUP!!! Is a night specializing in heavy bass electronic music across multiple genres. This night is an extension of Smoke N Bass, a monthly underground party thrown in SF. For our first night getting this monthly started we are bringin in one badass mofo all the way from the C.O.!!!
Ben Samples is one half of the live remix project Fresh2Death that is based out of Boulder, CO. His style is crunk glitch-hop, complete... with bass-heavy remixes of your favorite club anthems and hip hop. His professional DJ career started in 2006 when he picked up a weekly variety radio show for CU Boulder's KVCU. His show covered many styles and genres, with a focus on dance music and hip hop. Now, Samples blends both hip hop and dance music into a hybrid club hip hop sound that is redefining the genres. Samples is a member of the Denver Bass Squad, which is the essential crew that pushes the heavy bass-line scene in the Denver/Boulder area, including a residency at the world-famous Beta night club.
Samples first EP, Snowstorm was released on Daly City Records 5/18/10. Samples was also recently featured on An-ten-nae's Acid Crunk Vol. 2 compilation (released on Muti! Music), which is available on Beatport, iTunes, Addictech and other fine retailers. Other labels that Samples has released tracks on include Run Riot Records, Car Crash Set, Mambo Records, and True Movement.
