Eptic – Eat My Dust
Eptic’s latest swing at bass house proves once again why the producer has one of the most distinct sounds in bass music. Little can compare to the way Eptic’s wonky and metallic basses weave their way around his bone-shattering drums. The breakdown’s beautiful melody helps turn the song into a real musical journey, bringing out only the best emotions.
Notaker – Shimmer
Notaker is one artist that will always pack a powerful drop. His latest track “Shimmer” will take you on a melodic journey that ends up with a explosive Monstercat sound that we have all come to love. You’ll be drifting in and out of a dream state while listening to this one!
Gareth Emery SAVING LIGHT
I love it when labels throw in some old-school vibes that serves chaos and confusion for new fans and a sense of distinguishment for old fans. “Saving Light” accomplished this and so much more, becoming what will most likely be one of the hottest records of the month, already gaining hundreds of thousands of plays in a few days time. The trance single is everything you could want in this type of song. Shoutout to Monstercat for pulling this one off!
Feed Me – One Click Headshot (Atik Remix)
Breathing new life into a classic, Atik delivers a heavy dubstep drop after that unforgettable buildup sample. The remix, which slows down the original song, creates its own identity by adding in things such as brass stabs, drum rolls, and super punchy drums. The second drop changes it up quite a bit, defining itself as a drop that will surprise a lot of people on the dance floor.
Whethan – Savage (CRWNS Remix)
If you’re looking for a bass injection, while keeping it funky then you’ve come to the right place. CRWNS take on “Savage” keeps the vibes flowing while delivering robust drops. These catchy vocals will be stuck in your head all day, as the smooth vocal chops keep you engaged.
Peking Duk – Stranger (Jackal Remix)
While just about finishing up his We Are Animals tour and playing many more shows, Jackal has been putting out track after track. His latest release is a remix of a special guest on his tour, Peking Duk. His take on “Stranger” will captivate you, as the addicting vocals seep their way in and take over.
Max Styler & Colt Matthews “Heartache” (Remixes)
Dim Mak is here to put out three hot remixes of Max Styler and Colt Matthews “Heartache”. Featuring flips from Taiki, smle, and MERCE, there will be a new version for everyone to enjoy, no matter your taste.
Unlimited Gravity & DMVU – Rain Cloud
Unlimited Gravity is someone who puts a lot of thought into the atmosphere of his songs, and that is especially apparent in his new collab with DMVU. The song sets the stage with an enticing melody that approaches from the distance, evolving into an immersive drop dripping with emotion and gooey basses.
