I’ve written about Bishu before and his talents as a producer, yet he still never ceases to surprise me with each new release. Out now is a new single with Aviella called “Let You Down” that once again makes me stop and appreciate the finer things. “Let You Down” is characterized by the stark contrast between Aviella’s high voice and the heavily textured bass, giving listeners a wide range of auditory stimuli to lock onto and follow along with. Among all of this is also a delectable electric guitar riff that leads into each drop. Bishu’s talent comes into...
After being teased the past couple of months, the REZZ x Yultron collaboration, “Hell on Earth” is officially here. The new single was premiered on YouTube earlier this evening, ahead of its official wide release on streaming services. As with the majority of REZZ’s tracks, “Hell on Earth” features a punctuating midtempo rhythm with textured bass and a dark motif. Check out the wild music video below ahead of the official release tomorrow!
This past weekend was the first ever Ophelia Records showcase in San Francisco featuring sets from Crystal Skies, Last Heroes, Dimibo, and last but not least, Emmibabi, aka Seven Lions‘ own wife, Emma. Ophelia Records, for those who aren’t familiar, is Seven Lions’ label. This past Saturday, the label hosted a night at Mezzanine SF in the city to support its artists, and Emma played her first DJ set. She shared her feelings on the nerve-racking set on Instagram: “I’m not even sure where to begin. It’s taken a lot of work for me (who has awful stage fright)...
The last time Zeds Dead used the #WeAreDeadbeats hashtag, they released a compilation — WE ARE DEADBEATS (Vol. 3). As we near the end of 2019, they’ve just tagged it again with the date this Wednesday, December 4. But, since they’ve been teasing all these collabs over the last year, it looks like we might finally be getting the long promised Zeds Dead x Deadbeats collab album. ?12.4#WeAreDeadbeats pic.twitter.com/qgyEnqrVxn — ZEDS DEAD (@zedsdead) December 2, 2019 This year has been a busy one for Zeds Dead, and Deadbeats, as well. A massive headlining Deadbeats tour plus collaborations with Delta Heavy,...
Every producer/DJ who goes out on the road and plays shows will have a selection of unreleased material they’re either testing out or waiting to drop. The frequency these get played or how many get played depends on the DJ, setting, and a bunch of other factors, but you can pretty much guarantee every DJ does it. That even includes Odesza, who performed their final A Moment Apart show earlier this year and have recently been spotted back in the studio. Their fanbase is one of the most dedicated of any artist, and of course that means a lot...
The new EP from G Jones, Tangential Zones, is officially slated for release on all platforms tomorrow. However, lucky us, the producer decided to drop it a day early in an exclusive premiere from Fader. In what G Jones has called an epilogue to his 2018 album The Ineffable Truth, he pushes an extension of the same sound that the album brought to the forefront of the bass music community last year. It truly wouldn’t have been a stretch to release these tracks as an addition on a deluxe release of Ineffable Truth, but having them in this separate package somehow… increases their...
Art Basel may be famous for its art exhibitions and shows, but the Miami event has also become iconic for its satellite concerts. Every year has new concepts to offer, but one flagship festival at Virginia Key remains a favorite: Rakastella. Rakastella launched in 2017 as a joint project between record labels Life And Death and Innervisions. DJ Tennis runs Life And Death, while Dixon and Âme run Innervisions, so it’s no surprise Rakastella’s lineups wow fans every year. But then add in Miami promoters and parties Secret Garden, PL0T and WHERE ARE MY KEYS. Now, you’ve got a masterfully run festival...
Carnage believes openers should go hard or go home, which goes to show it’s been a while since he’s been an opening DJ. The producer just tweeted out, letting aspiring DJs know they should “always bang it out” when given the opportunity because “it could make or break you!” Contrary to what you may think, this is definitely not the best advice for DJs just starting off. Not only could it piss off the venue who booked you, but the artists, tour managers, and the list goes on. Opening is an art form — it’s important to play the...
Tomorrowland is experiencing a blackout on social media and that probably means a huge announce is coming! The iconic music festival just went black on socials — profile photos, cover photos, and with its most recent post. Using the same tactic we’ve seen with Swedish House Mafia, Fyre Festival, etc., the blank slate definitely has our attention. Speaking of Swedish House Mafia, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello have completely wiped their accounts. Axwell and Ingrosso are rocking the black dots, white Angello’s profile photo is white. It’s unclear whether this is related to Tomorrowland’s blackout or not. In addition,...
KALM is a man on mission as of late with his debut single “Learning How To Love” going to #1 in the Club Chart, becoming a Future Anthem on Radio 1 and catching the attention of TikTok who heavily backed the record (over 30k videos). We have the privilege to present his highly antincipated follow up single, ‘More Money’. Immediately gripping you with its melodic plucks and fresh sounding topline from Nonô. This hands down wins our catchiest and most relatable hooks of 2019, ‘All my friends are making money than me’. Expect more updates from this super driven...
