Ha'F Speed, a new dubstep dj mix

Happy Long Weekend! (Well, at least to the Canucks on the list :)

While everyone was out in the sun this weekend, enjoying the (finally) beautiful weather in Toronto, I was inside, working on a dark, ominous dj mix. Go figure. :)

I give you Ha'F Speed, a Dubstep DJ Mix. Inspired to give the genre another look by my man Shazbot (thanks to his excellent "Air Pressure" mix), and anchored around a few choice tracks that stumbled across (and one of which I totally ripped from Shazbot's mix :), I put this little mini-mix together as my own "take" on the music.

I'm not sure how many of you are actually going to like it, honestly. As the intro states, dubstep is kind of an "acquired taste". Deep, dark, bassy, and really, really slow. Some of you will get it right away (maybe you've already got it), others will be wondering how the heck you're supposed to dance to it. (answer: I think you're just supposed to nod your head)

Either way, fan or newbie, approach it with an open mind and see where it takes ya, from the heartbreak vocals of I Lied to the spanish back alley of In The Death Car. (Note: Listen for the debut of some beat juggling :)
