It's all about that rat...
Rattus Rattus, must-see Dubstep/Mashup/Rave/the list goes on DJ, has been on the game (no, he's not a 'lady of the night', its just a figure of speech) for a few years and is doing BIG things across the UK right now, not to mention trembling the eardrums of thinking ravers everywhere. I heard about Rattus a couple of years ago through a friend of mine whom he gave one of his, now infamous, mixtapes to to play in his shop. This particular mix went by the name of 'Raped by Bass Vol.2' and as soon as I heard it I wanted it, like a rare
Pokemon. The cover was hand drawn in chunky marker and had a 90's cassette mixtape feel about it, I demanded a way of getting the mix myself and was graciously provided with THIS LINK where I was met by a full page of ratty goodness (which I now pass on to you like a proud father handing down a family heirloom). He's had his fingers in many musical pies, see his Google results (yeah thats right, I'm just throwing the internet at ya rasclat, get stuck in), Radio 1Xtra, Urban Nerds etc etc.
So anyway, Rattus, (who is a busy fella, has just done full mix for i-D Magazine) was kind enough to step behind the decks for 'Sweatyyetti' and spin us up a personal mix to get you all coiled and ready for the weekend, lovely chap... ENJOY...
Keep up to date with what he's up to on his FACESMACK PAGE and go see him mash up a venue near you ASAP...
Believe the hype.
It's all about that Rat.
