Biography
——————————–
The Bay Area Voltron production force known as Helicopter Showdown is the largest outfit in the game, consisting of Devan Day, Ryan Wade, Joshua Small, and Blake Powers. Said to be the "Wu Tang" of Dubstep, these west coast bass monsters have been turning heads with their unique sound of ridiculously heavy and beautifully melodic dance music world wide.
Supported by such highly respected artists as Skism, Borgore, Mt. Eden, Rusko, Downlink, and Reid Speed amongst others, their music is quickly being recognized within the bass music culture. Close friend, collaborator, and UltraGore label mate/owner Sluggo have been teaming up and smashing the Beatport Dubstep charts since their debut release "The Wrestler" , followed by "Hostages" and most recently "Holy Ghost" feat. MC Messinian.
They have always held their fans in the highest regard, proving their deep love through their committed effort towards consistently giving away FREE music with highly acclaimed releases "Gucci Gucci (Helicopter Showdown & IB Remix)" , "Waiting" with BoyKidCloud , "Dramatron" , "Beat Down" and the classic "Whistle Tips" with Point.blank , as well as giving away free downloads of their signature sounds and production templates. Helicopter Showdown loves to share their sounds and knowledge so that music continues to progress and free information continues to expand.
Helicopter Showdown just hit the Beatport Dubstep Chart hard, planting themselves firm within the top 20 with their latest release "Drop It Again" with Calvertron off the "Flight or Fight EP" . They are currently finishing up their next Ultragore EP with Sluggo featuring the fresh vocal talents of Bryan Dallas and Young Aunde. There is also talks of collaborations with renowned artists such as DocumentOne and Borgore for more insane music.
Performing in more and more areas and continuing to release more original music and collaborating with badass talent are things they will never stop doing. There are millions of ideas and only so much time to execute them, but rest assured that every single thing they do has 100% love, blood, sweat, and tears poured into it.
