Over 50 tracks in this 2hr 20 minute mix recorded LIVE/1-Take on my trusty Pioneer CDJ’s! PLUS another 1 hour by DJ Nappy – recorded this in 1 take with no effects / drops / filler. Inspired by “LoveSong” – The Cure! LuvDub Symphony: Luv, Luv he said! Luv is here…Luv is lost…luv is gained…hearts are broken, hearts get mended & hearts melt….u feelin’ the butterflies in your stomach yet? LuvDuB Symphony is really an emotional journey exploring your passions, your romance, your joy of being in luv, your love lost and also your heartbreak. You might feel as high as a kite, as if on cloud 9, you might get a warm glow inside you, you might wear a smile on your face and your heart might skip a beat. You might experience some insecurity, despair, pain, get nostalgic over the memories you had with your loved one and also you might feel as though you’re world has ended too. It’s all a part of being in luv! Happy sun shiny songs but also sad, sad songs, all meshed together by me, DJ UMB, to make you feel the uplifting, superhuman strength of being in Luv but also the devastation & low ebb of breaking up and being heartbroken. The mix, well yes it’s pretty lengthy but that just how love-making and getting over a heartbreak ought to be. Imho a Luvstep mix shouldn’t be rushed and some tracks should be allowed to be played in their entirety for the sake of creating a mood/ambience. Everybody is doing short mixes but I love to do the opposite of whatever everybody else is doing and so I’ve opted for long & epic mix on this ocassion. It stretches to just over 2 hours & 20 mins and contains over 50 tracks including some personal & sentimental faves that have been meshed in that are not dubstep. Tracks like Led Zeppelin’s “Thank You”, Neil Young’s “Expecting To Fly” and various versions of Lovesong. Indeed, the main inspiration for this mixtape comes from The Cure’s “Lovesong”, which is one of my all time favourite tracks. Anyway, enough waffle. I hope you enjoy it and it becomes a soundtrack to some part of your life happy or sad life. I need to give BIG thank you’s to all the artists, DJ Nappy, Dirty South Joe & Flufftronix, all my dudes at Generation Bass and all of you who take time to listen to my mixes. A special thank you to members of the Luvstep Dub Symphony Facebook group who posted some of the tracks in that group, which I have used in my mix, Anna, Lara, Ivo, Badshah and some others. Also to Monica & Kiran for recording the Lovesong dialogue and sending it to me. LuvSTeP Serenade by DJ Nappy: Go & grab it HERE and read DJ Nappy’s take on this too: http://snd.sc/mQ2tUy http://www.mediafire.com/?iwer5k9q6u697vu We all know luvstep is a movement built on melody at 140BPMs, and for this Luvstep Serenade, the idea is a pretty heavy night of passion. Some of our lovers like things a bit rougher, though, so while we have more somber, melodic bass bits from the likes of Matt-U, Starkey and L-Wiz, there are some curveballs thrown – a lot of these tracks speak of love lost, which is just as big a part of being in “love” than the puppy eyes, boo’d up afternoons that we all wish we could remember. Hell, when you break up with “the one”, you feel the pain more than the warm embrace, so why not explore both facets of this thing we call luv? Luvstep from the THUGSTEP architect… stats
