Posted on:

Bass Report is back! Snagging this edition’s number one slot, some melodic dubstep goodness from a name that’s becoming familiar around the household pretty quick. Let’s get into it. #1 Haywyre – Insight Another one of Monstercat’s many heavy hitters, Haywyre is turning heads and breakin’ necks as of late with his unique flavor of bass music.
