To the dubstep naysayers: Candyland’s latest collaboration with Zak Waters is a record that might change your mind about the direction the genre’s been taking. A project that emerged when the guys met at SXSW, “Not Coming Down” was released on Spinnin’ Records yesterday, and is already in the top 20 on the Beatport charts. While keeping the hip hop and drum and bass inspired bass and drum lines, Waters’s catchy vocals paired with electro synths really widen the appeal of this track, ensuring its candidacy for becoming an anthem to take us through the rest of the summer.
