Low-end theorist Bassnectar's tenth LP is his most mature. Known mostly for extremes of sternum-caving bass, the festival star balances out his sound here with ominous strings ("F U N"), an Edge-y guitar line ("You & Me") and a trap-inspired banger that sounds like Dr. Dre's G-funk played on a crystal flute ("Don't Hate the 808"). Bassheads should celebrate too: The drops still sound like robot Pantera. - Rolling Stone Magazine

Bio
Bassnectar is one of the longest standing Dj's around. Lorin Ashton is the brain behind the operation. Lorin has been creating music since 1993 and put out his first Bassnectar album in 2001. Bassnectar aims to create a community that promotes love and positivity with the music and the environment of the shows. From being influenced from every genre from other Dj's to metal music. Lorin hopes to create something that will reach out and inspire his fans. As Lorin says " “We are so blessed, and so deeply fortunate to be alive and awake right now…it’s a basic truth, but it’s very powerful. I think privilege confers responsibility, and Bassnectar is a reflection of that opportunity to give back; the motion of my cells bouncing back at the world.”
