West Coast EDM

Mainland European EDM is pretty well covered by other communities, so I'd like to make this page about what's popular on the North American west coast - Dubstep, Leftfield Bass, Brostep, Drum & Bass, Tech House and more. If you want to moderate and build out the page, message me and I'll add you!
Couple loose rules so far -
- Include the highest quality source you can find.
- Link posts should be newish content. Or, new leaks/newly available old track files or sets, etc.
You're welcome to post your favorite old tunes like they do over on reddit, just do it inside a discussion thread (e.g. 'What's your favorite 90's track?', 'Here's all of my favorite songs growing up and how it affected me'. 'Give me all your dubplates')

πI like YYZ
Have you heard from the Shambala festival? Itβs canadian, and the tunes there are madly awesome π€©
I know shambhala well although I haven't followed it as much recently I attended once in 2015 I think it was and it is hands down one of the best experiences of my life. Straight after that I went on to whistler for crankworx and to do some riding / climb some mountains. Canada is a fucking beautiful country, I loved it so much!
I'm not super into festivals but I would go to that every year if I could. Sadly with flights, accommodation, car rental etc these days I'm looking at like 2-3k to attend which I can never afford.
Having attended festivals in the UK and Australia they simply cannot rival the vibes and love that shambs gives out. It also introduced me to levi sanding after being absolutely off my tits on acid in fractal forest and having my mind blown for an age by someone with one I went home and spent weeks just trying to figure out what it was. Once I had I ordered one and taught myself to "wand". I haven't picked it up for a while but the festival kept giving me joy for years after I'd attended.
Now I feel happy / sad thinking about it and the likelyhood I'll never be able to experience that place again :(
I was never there yet, but it is on high priority in my bucket list π
Are you into psytrance as well? I really like hi-tech (oxidaxi, technical hitch, dark whisper, narxz, yatzee, virtuanoise)
If so, I can recommend shankra in Switzerland
Psytrance is one of those things I do really like when I hear it but never go out of my way to look for or listen to it. I'll check out some of those artists you mentioned there though and have a look at Shankar.
And you will not regret a trip to shambhala for sure!
πnice, I very often listen to my hi-tech/hardcore playlist while driving (or doing other stuff) I can chill very good work that tunes, lol
Just listening to this mix for the first time and it is a great mix of old and new stuff within "real dubstep", you should give it a go!

It seems a bit too chill for me after scrolling though it for a bit, have to listen to it more carefully, tho, I guess.
That's fair. I've been pumping this Delta mix a lot recently and that is a bit more upbeat, could be worth a try instead :D
