Lost in ‘The Paradox’
A seminal figure in the rise of North American dubstep, Excision’s amped-up stage rig offers his headbanging crowd an added dose of sensory overload. The Paradox is the result of Excision seeking stage design to match the intensity of his DJ sets and he’s truly outdone himself, “The planning and design of the stage [has been] many years in the making,” Excision explained. “We’ve been tracking all of the things we wished the Executioner stage could do and rolled every one of them into the Paradox.” He went on to say, “It started out with a simple concept and slowly grew into the monster it is now.”
Excision isn’t entering The Paradox all on his own though. With an army armed and ready to drop bass bombs, Figure and Bear Grillz will join Excision on the extensive tour, making for an evening of heavy bass artillery that you cannot miss. Can’t wait for The Paradox until next year? You can preview eight new tunes from the bass mastodon on the heavy duty Shambhala 2015 mix.
Come and see why Excision’s live shows have achieved a cult-like status and join us on our partnering dates.

El 'Papi Gordo' Carnage is Getting Ready for a Tour
Having just dropped his long-awaited debut album Papi Gordo last month, bass-loving, Chipotle gang leader Carnage is about to embark on an accompanying tour to showcase his trademark sound across the world. Named after an alias he’s been going by for many years, the Papi Gordo tour kicks off in 2016 and tickets on-sale now!
Upcoming Carnage Events
- Carnage in Saint Louis, MO on Thursday, January 28th
- Carnage in Houston, TX on Friday, March 4th
- Carnage in Charlotte, NC on Saturday, March 5th
Viva El Papi Gordo
Though Carnage’s success is widely attributed to his trendsetting festival trap tunes, on Papi Gordo, he’s taking a different approach. For his debut album out on Ultra Music, the Los Angeles resident unleashes a 15-track LP that features a variety of collaborations like, Milo & Otis, and AraabMuzik and Rick Ross, the latter making his first-ever foray in electronic music on the album’s latest single “Gordo.” Built on rap-fueled cuts and distorted synths, Papi Gordo retains the hip hop foundation that’s now become synonymous with Carnage’s crate.
Kicking off in New Orleans, the Papi Gordo tour will have Valentino Khan, Jauz, and Kayzo along for the ride on select dates. So if you’re ready to ride, get those Chipotle orders in and don’t miss the Papi Gordo tour when it invades a city near you. Join us on our partnering dates.
