The homie Bleep Bloop has been on a roll lately driving the west coast bass scene with a string of pleasantly weird releases that have distinguished him as a leader in a very crowded space. He just released an incredible 30-minute mixtape called the Pentocular Mixtape and it's got all kinds of originals and unreleased tracks including joints from G Jones, Footsie, Sayer, Noer … [Read more...]
The Most Experimental Tracks of 2015
Congratulations friends, we made it! 2015 was an incredible year for electronic bass music in which we saw "future bass" (a term we essentially made up in 2010) really take on a defined sound, turning it into more of an actual genre than an umbrella term used to describe contemporary, progressive electronic bass music. While this has helped make the sound more accessible to … [Read more...]
Bleep Bloop and G Jones push the envelope on new EP
Bleep Bloop and G Jones are from the future, plain and simple. One listen to their new Mind EP and you'll agree with me. They pair futuristic synths with growling bass to make some of the most forward thinking production out there right now. They team up for three killer tracks on their latest collaborative effort plus get an amazing remix from none other than Lunice. The … [Read more...]
ConRank’s ‘Ma Fan (麻烦) EP’ Means Trouble [Review]
Get weird AF with ConRank, the Shanghai producer bringing a foreign element to bass music with his own artistic expression that is jarring and so bizarre, so out there that the sound waves cut into your brainwaves, rifting the time space continuum.

PREMIERE: Sayer & Bleep Bloop – Dukes
Summer is here and we're feeling the heat thanks to the album Sayer just released via Saturate Records! Process Animation is a magnificent run through the grimey, wonky west-coast sound that has come to define Sayer as a producer. With surreal sound design, masterful engineering and some truly nasty analog-sounding synths, Process Animation is an incredibly enjoyable, mildly … [Read more...]
PREMIERE: Bleep Bloop – Acid In Tha Freezer VIP
You may remember Bleep Bloop's original version of "Acid In Tha Freezer" a couple years back, which was part of STYLSS' Suicide Pact II. After revisiting it not too long ago, Bleep Bloop shares an unheard VIP of the track. Like any Bleep Bloop track, this VIP keeps you on your toes, as you never know what sound is next. Bleep Bloop starts by echoing out the vocal sample … [Read more...]
PREMIERE: Bleep Bloop – Feel The Cosmos (Official Video)
Back in September, we had the pleasure of premiering Bleep Bloop's title track off of his new EP "Feel The Cosmos." Now he's teamed up with director Evert van der Veen to make a crazy video for "Feel The Cosmos" and they thought Run The Trap readers should get the first look at it. I don't think Evert van der Veen could have made a video that went along any better with the … [Read more...]
