DESCRIPTION :
Sick and tired of the current music scene, a small group of local DJ’s have decided to get together and form their own label to promote the music they love best. Resistiv3, specializes in hard/dark drum & bass, dubstep, downtempo and underground hip hop, by both local and international. But if you’re expecting a dnb remix of Beyonce’s songs and the likes of it at any of their gig, forget it. They want to leave all the ‘commercial stuff’ to other labels. Resistiv3 aims to stick to promoting underground sounds to the urbanites.
At their shows, expect sounds from international label like 315, Ascensions Recordings, Freak Recordings, Black Hoe Recordings, and Lifted Music. On the local side, there are Spacebar, FLOAT, The Rebel Scum, The Works, Nujita and many more.
Simply put, if you want to see a different side of music, keep on lookout for what resistiv3 has to offer. Or if you have been longing for a night out filled with beats from the future, a mishmash of dubstep and gangsta hip hop, or maybe jungle breaks with technoid/dark drum & bass, this tiny label might just be your savior.
Resistiv3’s inaugural show will be held on the 1st of March 2008 at Palate Palette, Kuala Lumpur. This free performance starts at 9p.m., featuring acts like Kain (of Ohm Resistance), Mac, Anowl, MH, DJ Cliq, Wordsmanifest, Chi-Pulp and Tubby. Visuals will be provided by Perez Old Skool.
