Fabric Birthday Treats: Caspa & Baobinga’s Promo Mix MP3s
This weekend Londoners will not sleep for three days straight if they are lucky: legendary club Fabric is hosting its 10th birthday party and everyone who is awesome in the general vicinity of the UK will be DJing a citywide housequake whose reverberations are so big we may feel them on American shores. Does the phrase “10 pm to 6 am” mean anything to you people? Actually just looking at the lineup here kind of makes us want to cry with longing. In advance of Baobinga’s set (on Friday, room three, before Rusko), he made a hot autumn mix showcasing a lot of the nuevo bass musics gripping the London scene, by some of right now’s hottest producers (also, The-Dream). And dubstep captain Caspa, who plays there tomorrow with fellow bass warriors Skream and Benga (ahhh), and is still amazing despite the fact that he likes the worst American sitcom of the last decade, ponied up some subterranean tremors for his own mix promoing Fabric’s bday. Full Baobinga tracklist after the jump, download Caspa’s mix here. We are still crying, all stuck in New York like it ain’t no thing.

Freeload: Don Letts Fabric Podcast
- story THE FADER
While UK superclub Fabric is known for its massive soundsystem and diverse collection of resident selectors, they wisely decided to eschew the newest UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ dance music of the day for their podcast series, a collection of classic headphone gems by the likes of Andy Weatherall and Howie B. For our money (Free Ninety Nine), it’s one of the most underrated musical outposts out there, standing apart from the rest of the interweb mix murk by striking the perfect balance between the obvious and the obscure, refusing to get dusty just for the sake of it. The latest edition comes courtesy of Don Letts, the Zelig-like DJ, filmmaker and inventor of the punky reggae party. He manages to connect the dots between Collie Buddz, Clinic and Big Audio Dynamite (he was a member!) over the course of the podcast, and after listening on repeat this morning we realized we NEED to hear more BAD on all future DJ mixes. Eddie Stats, get to work!
