Ishe started first out back on the porch where a BBQ was set up for the audience that night. He set the perfect mood for the rainy evening. His music had a chill vibe to it and towards the end of his set, he incorporated some drum and bass into the Dubstep sounds. Overall, he was a great opener before Dirt Monkey.

Dirt Monkey was up next. He’s a local DJ from Boulder who opens up for headliners frequently at Beta. He never disappoints when he performs. I’m always really excited when I see that he is opening, and I always overhear other people in the crowd excited for him too.

Feed Me came on next and I think the best way to describe him is that he has a lot of variety to what he presents to the crowd. He didn’t just play Dubstep; he incorporated a lot of different electronic genres in his set. I feel like in this way he really appealed to every individual person there.

What I also liked about Feed Me was that I could tell he is really passionate about his work. It made me happy to see him smiling out to the crowd, clearly enjoying what he was doing. I think my favorite moment was when he played his song “One Click Headshot”. And who couldn’t like the infamous “teeth” as part of the visuals.

Feed Me is a truly unique artist and I recommend checking him out on Facebook or SoundCloud.

The Denver crowd really is special . Ive been at shows where artists such as  Dillion Francis, Terravita, Reid Speed and 12th Planet, to name a few, have said said something similar and the crowd goes absolutely insane! So whether you want some hard Canadian bass, some heavy UK wobbles or some “Wookie Whomp” you’re in the right city to feed all that. Just make sure you drink water, have a sober ride home and a jacket, no one like to be blacked out, cold and in jail Stay safe kids

To say that Friday night was great is an understatement but in order to give details on the night you have to start from the beginning. We all walked in and standing at the decks was the always lovely Lotus Drops. This Bay Area Bass Queen has been smashing up sets from Chicago to Hawaii to up and down the west coast and lately has been seen destroying clubs all over Colorado. She caught us by surprise on Friday night as we walked in and caught her dropping bass heavy classics mixed in with unreleased dubplates.  I must say that it is always a pleasure to catch her sets. They’re always fun and have the perfect mix of deep whomp and a bass heavy wobble.  Next up was the one and only Coult-45. Over the last few years this Colorado native has made a name for himself as one of THE premier Sub.Mission residents. What many love about Coult’s style is that it’s so diverse. From deep bass filled dubstep to trap to drum & bass he does what every great DJ does, takes you on a journey and always keeps you guessing what’s next.

As Josh Small started his set the Funktion-One’s vibrated the chest cavities of every bass head in the building. I must say that when the first bass dropped people went nuts. Although Helicopter Showdown usually performs as a group, seeing them individually truly makes you appreciate the talent of these men. Each has their own unique style and, like many great groups, when those styles come together something amazing happens. Josh Small’s style was perfect for Denver. From dubstep to trap to moombah to electro to drum & bass and everything in between Josh’s set was absolutely out of control. He said it himself, “Denver you’re my favorite city to play because no matter what I drop you fucking get down.”  Believe me, when I say that Denver came out full force ready to show Helicopter Showdown that we can get down to any track you throw at us.  “I catch them every time they come to town.” A club goer said as we were leaving. I for one can say that I will be at their next performance when they come back to Colorado.
