🔊 Thunderstone.FM #10: Bass Benders, Trap Gospel, and New Zealand’s Harmless Animal Kingdom

From baile funk to breakbeats to buttery UK garage, Thunderstone.FM 10 pulls no punches except at the animal population of New Zealand. They’re chill. No punches needed.

Welcome back to the noise. Episode 10 of Thunderstone.FM is a full-course feast of genre-hopping chaos, served up by K-Sadilla (head chaos coordinator at Thunderstone Labs) and the ever-mysterious Dr. Doobie. If you’ve been here before, you already know: the vibes stay lawless, the jokes are probably NSFW, and the music? Always heat.

We kick things off with an intro that feels like a fog machine doing falsetto, spacey as hell, low-end thumping, with hypnotic vocal chops floating overhead. It’s like cruising through a dream in a beat-up Honda Civic on hydraulics.

Then the set launches straight into a high-energy first segment that could set off a house party in the middle of a DMV. Baile funk meets trap meets Miami bass. It's dirty, it's bouncy, and it's got enough attitude to slap your WiFi offline.

🔥 Segment 1: Baile Funk & Bass Knockers

Tracks to spin back:
“FAMJAM4000 (Cadeem LaMarr Edit)” & “AUTOMOTIVO BIBI FOGOSA/CHUPA” – SALAMANKA
Think: 3AM favela rager, glitter on the floor, someone grinding on a speaker.

🌌 Segment 2: Future Beats to Levitate To

This one glides into ultra-dreamy territory, floaty synths, chopped vocal samples that sound like ghosts texting you from the trap, and layered beats with that off-kilter complexity you can’t fake. Imagine climbing into a soft-boiled egg filled with 808s.

Don't sleep on:
“fly away” – kas & “WAFFLE” – SENOJNAYR
Headphones required. Weed optional. Emotions inevitable.

🥁 Segment 3: Breakbeats with Soul

Just when you're too comfy, it speeds up. This segment taps into R&B-flavored jungle and breakbeat, fast drums, tender samples. It’s like someone lovingly punched a teddy bear and turned it into a rave.

On repeat:
“Forgive Me Not” – ben lee
“Rain” – DANSO
"Call Me Everyday" – feels like summer in fast-forward.

💥 Segment 4: That Raw Trap Sht*

No fancy intros here just straight up brrr brrr, 808s that could fracture pavement, and a couple soul-sample flips sprinkled in like hot sauce. Hood-certified. Lab-tested.

Certified slappers:
“G-Shock (im back)” – MadeByHuncho
“FANCY BIDNESS” – DJBodegaCat
This segment smells like burnt rubber and backwoods.

🇬🇧 Segment 5: UK Garage for Lovers and Headbutters

We end with a glide into the UK. Starts with some smooth, R&B-drenched garage vibes then shifts into full bassline face-melters. Classy but chaotic. Like drinking Earl Grey from a red Solo cup.

Underground gems:
“higher 4 u (tems ukg edit)” – Zwavvy
“SOUTHEAST HAYES” – LITTLETHINGS
Pour one out for London warehouse culture.

🎤 Host Highlights

Somewhere between segments, the duo riffed on how New Zealand has no animals capable of killing you. Not a single lethal one. No snakes. No bears. Just sheep and existential dread. It’s a wild tangent, but honestly? It kinda fits. Much like the mixes, the convos zig where you expect them to zag.

Thunderstone.FM is not a playlist. It’s a portal. A rotating door of international underground sounds, internet finds, and spiritual revelations disguised as club edits. Whether you came for the music, the banter, or just needed to escape your algorithm for an hour, welcome to the best shit you heard.
