    Artist description
    new school breakbeat/house artists the basecrazies bring hard hitting breaks and drunken antics into the scene. the trio, consisting of dj aculation, dj whitey, and dj vasoline are the originators of the "suburban chicago high school white-boy emo dance scene," combining big beat solos and whispering melodies. how do they do it, you ask? dj aculation describes it best: "we get really, really drunk one night, and the next morning, when we can't operate any heavy machinery, we go and steal bits and pieces of other people's rubbish music and try to make them good."
