Bassrush presents: Rusko x SubDocta @ Exchange LA (21+)
Let’s meetup for Rusko & SubDocta!
Rusko: Dubstep Pioneer & Sonic Architect
In the realm of dubstep, Rusko stands as a luminary figure, crafting sonic landscapes that have left an indelible mark on electronic music. Born Christopher Mercer in Leeds, UK, Rusko’s journey began in the vibrant underground scene of London during the mid-2000s.
His breakthrough came with the release of “Cockney Thug” in 2007, a track that quickly became an anthem and catapulted him into the global spotlight. Rusko’s fusion of heavy basslines, reggae influences, and infectious melodies set a new standard in the dubstep genre.
Over the years, he continued to shape the scene with iconic releases like “Everyday” and collaborations with artists such as Caspa and Cypress Hill. Rusko’s versatility shines through, seamlessly blending elements of dub, drum and bass, and beyond. His dynamic performances have graced renowned festivals like Coachella and EDC, solidifying his status as a live performance powerhouse.
While accolades may follow, Rusko’s true legacy lies in his ability to push sonic boundaries and evolve with the ever-changing electronic music landscape. As a trailblazer in the dubstep movement, Rusko remains a force, reminding us that innovation and bass are at the heart of his musical DNA.
SubDocta: Bass Music’s Mad Scientist
SubDocta, the moniker of Preston Charles, has rapidly become a standout name in the bass music scene, celebrated for his inventive sound design and genre-blending approach. Hailing from Reno, Nevada, SubDocta burst onto the scene with his breakout track “2009 Was Tight,” which quickly gained traction for its distinctive fusion of dubstep, riddim, and trap elements.
Known for his self-coined “West Coast Wobble” style, SubDocta has delivered a string of hits, including “Torqued” and “Crank,” showcasing his ability to merge gritty basslines with funky, unpredictable rhythms. His music has been supported by some of the biggest names in electronic music, including Excision, Ganja White Night, and Liquid Stranger, earning him spots on major labels like SubCarbon Records and Wakaan.
SubDocta’s explosive live performances have made him a festival favorite, with appearances at Electric Forest, Bass Canyon, and Lost Lands, where he’s known for delivering high-energy sets that keep crowds on their toes. In addition to headlining his own tours, he’s shared the stage with heavyweights like Zomboy, Boogie T, and GRiZ.
With his innovative sound and relentless drive, SubDocta continues to push the boundaries of bass music, earning him a devoted following and a prominent place in the scene.
