Always masters of putting their own spin on current trends, dubstep icons Zeds Dead have taken a step back to their roots. The newest single from the Canadian duo, titled 'One Time', brings us back to the signature sound fans have grown to love. The track features building basslines over the fast-paced vocals of rapper Murs. At first listen, its clear that 'One Time' was built with the intention of testing even the best of sound systems. Like many of their past hits, 'One Time' ditches the catchy melodies of current hits for straight up filth.
Luckily, it wont be long before fans can appreciate the track in its proper setting; The group marked its release with the announcement of their '2 Night Stand' tour. Tickets for the event are being released by way of lottery. With a number of small venues listed for the tour, it seems that the group is going for a more intimate vibe than usual. Being regulars on large festival lineups, this will be a rare chance to see DC and Hooks away from the mainstage. Additionally, tickets are being made non-transferable to avoid scalping, which has become synonymous with these type of events.
As if that wasn't enough of a giveback to fans, the group also announced their first album is currently in the works. '2 Night Stand' should be a chance to glimpse one of the most anticipated albums in dubstep history. Sign up for the lottery is open until September 14th, which should probably be the first thing you do after reading these heartfelt words by the group:
Today we announced a very special series of shows – The 2 Night Stand Tour – stopping by a few of our favourite cities in North America for an extended two night stand in some the most intimate and historical venues around. We wanted to go back to our roots with this one, away from the festival stages and big rooms, into the same rooms that rock and rolls greats came up in. And to give you a first chance to hear the unreleased music that we’ve been working on for our forthcoming debut album in an intimate room surrounded by fans and friends.
