Bro Safari x ETC!ETC! x UFO! – Baddd
This triple threat production is a menacing tune that revisits the moombah roots of the artists. It is quite cinematic, utilizing tasteful sounds design and real world elements to find the balance between gripping songwriting and speaker-shaking bass!
Dirtyphonics – Boombox
Dirtyphonics takes it back to the 80’s with this one! The song embodies the funky analog sounds and record scratching that was so relevant during 80’s, before connecting it to today by leading the listener into a heavy and unique bass house drop. To make things even more authentic Dirtyphonics even included a talkbox segment in the breakdown so that you can REALLY get your funk on.
Ahee – Bali Breaks
Play Me Records has done it again with the adventurous new EP from Ahee. On “Bali Breaks” bright pads join vocal chanting, leading into a tightly packed breakbeat drop that really leaves no stone unturned. Every little sound or effect that fills the void gives the song infectious life that so easily captures the listeners heart and mind.
RUNAGROUND ft. Disco Fries – Stars Come Out (Anki Remix)
Anki is back with another huge, emotional track. After recently releasing premiering on NEST HQ, you can say he’s been on a hot streak lately. This heavy twist on “Stars Come Out” will bring enough bass for a dubstep fan, but keep it melodic enough for those who appreciate a solid melody. Each unique sound design and drop will keep you moving while maintaining a refreshing sound.
Skrillex – Ruffneck (Chodegang Remix)
Disciple Record’s resident ridden powertrio are back again with a remix to Skrillex’s CLASSIC tune “Ruffneck”. The song leaves the song’s melodic foundation intact, introducing their own style of grimy and earth-shattering bass instead. There is not a second that you will not be eagerly attentive as the trio utilizes ever creative trick in the book to keep things interesting and engaging. This is how you slay a killer remix!
ATLiens – Alchemy
Lush strings blends with robotic gibberish to introduce this cinematic track’s theme. Soon goosebump raising bass takes center stage, building tension for the heavy 808 drop that follows. In the second drop ATLiens expand on the theme to lay down some really wonky and metallic bass sounds that give the song a ton of unique character.
Ed Sheeran – Shape Of You (Willy Joy Remix)
With this powerful remix of Ed Sheeran’s chart-topping song, Willy Joy really captures the longing and emotion that the original song embodies, while clearly leaving his own mark in songwriting and production. Sheeran’s lush vocals are built on by immersive pads and other sounds, leading into a massive and euphoric future bass drop.
