:=0Ahttp://www.facebook.com/djdatsik=0A=E2=80=9CI think dubstep has become =
so huge because it=E2=80=99s a complete bastardization of electronic music,=
=E2=80=9D exclaims rapidly emerging young producer and artist DATSIK. =E2=
=80=9CThere=E2=80=99s a little bit of everything thrown in the mix and dirt=
ied up. There are pieces of hip-hop, the bass from electronic dance tracks =
and the roots of U.K. garage and drum & bass=E2=80=A6Dubstep is totally the=
 punk rock of electronic music.=E2=80=9D =0A=0AIf DATSIK (born Troy Beetles=
) sounds more like a young rapper than one of the world=E2=80=99s preeminen=
t young dubstepstars, it=E2=80=99s for good reason. The Kelowna, British Co=
lumbia, native grew up a hardcore rap fan that still pledges allegiance to =
classic Wu-Tang Clan and it permeates his dark, aggressive music.=0A=0ADATS=
IK=E2=80=99s future-tech dance-floor detonators exploded on the dubstep sce=
ne almost immediately, racking up a series of seven #1 tracks on Beatport, =
including at one time owning five of the ten tunes on their best-sellers ch=
art. He=E2=80=99s also had smash hits on other music sites like Juno, Red E=
ye and Chemical Records and early remix credits include works for the bigge=
st names in the game like Diplo, The Crystal Method and Bassnectar.=0A=0ANo=
w he=E2=80=99s produced a dozen new tracks for his debut full-length album,=
 VITAMIN D on Dim Mak Records, featuring collaborations with Infected Mushr=
oom, DJ Z-Trip and Jonathan Davis of KORN. =E2=80=9CI=E2=80=99ve been a KOR=
N fan since back in the day,=E2=80=9D DATSIK explains about Jonathan Davis =
who reached out to him directly to collaborate on KORN=E2=80=99s 2011 genre=
-defying album The Path of Totality. =E2=80=9CHe was so complementary about=
 our music and how much he loved it. So when he said he wanted to work with=
 us, we couldn=E2=80=99t say yes fast enough.=E2=80=9D=0A=0AThe spooky resu=
lting track =E2=80=9CEvilution=E2=80=9D was built from another Jonathan Dav=
is collaboration, this time with Israeli psy-trance band Infected Mushroom.=
 Collaborating after a chance meeting backstage at New York=E2=80=99s massi=
ve Electric Zoo festival last summer, the pair brought their wildly dispara=
te sounds together as one. =E2=80=9CBlending dubstep with psy-trance and Jo=
nathan Davis sounds kind of insane,=E2=80=9D DATSIK admits, =E2=80=9Cbut th=
e track came out great and I=E2=80=99m stoked on it.=E2=80=9D =0A=0ANext to=
 manic dubstep tracks like the menacing =E2=80=9CNapalm=E2=80=9D (featuring=
 rapper Messenian), the grimy, hip-hop swagger of DJ Z-Trip collaboration =
=E2=80=9CDouble Trouble=E2=80=9D and the devastating first single =E2=80=9C=
Fully Blown=E2=80=9D with rapper Snack the Ripper, DATSIK=E2=80=99s debut a=
lbum VITAMIN D is poised to set a new standard in the wild world of dubstep=
. Loaded with bone-rattling beats and enough energy to power the Vegas Stri=
p, it=E2=80=99s poised to be the dubstep full-length to beat in 2012. =0A=
=0A=E2=80=9CIt=E2=80=99s important to me to have my own style,=E2=80=9D he =
stresses, citing Method Man as the one artist at the top of his collaborati=
on =E2=80=9Cbucket list.=E2=80=9D =E2=80=9CI will always have a strong hip-=
hop element and be heavy as f---, but it=E2=80=99s always going to sound li=
ke the future.=E2=80=9D
