Last night Subtronics headlined the first full-capacity show at Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre since the onset of the pandemic—and he did not pull any punches. The dubstep superstar, who said headlining the venue was his “number one life goal since the age of 5,” threw down a set for the ages as he rattled the monoliths flanking the legendary open air venue. Subtronics cycled through a relentless barrage of his own original music as well as mind-bending tracks released by his bass music contemporaries on his Cyclops Recordings imprint. The performance was highlights galore, but it was the drop of one unreleased song that sent ripples through the electronic music community after the momentous “Cyclops Rocks” show. Titled “Gravity...
In January, Black Tiger Sex Machine teamed up with Kazyo and Point North for their monster single “Lifeline.” Adding to their impressive list of massive collaborations, the Canadian trio has tapped JT Roach for “Creature” out via Kannibalen Records. Although “Creature” is a slight departure from the relentlessness of their recent releases, the tune still showcases BTSM’s heavy-hitting sound while simultaneously giving JT Roach’s immaculate vocals a spotlight. His signature tenor croons lyrics about animosity, with that message being empowered by dynamic, winding basses and the occasional fluttery synth. The anthemic nature of “Creature” makes it a live set staple. Expect the track to be a centerpiece of BTSM&...
Bear Grillz has joined forces with Adventure Club to deliver a feel-good future bass track featuring rising singer-songwriter JT Roach, titled “Where We Are.” By combining the two producers’ expertise in bass-leaning sound design and melodic stylings with a soulful vocalist, the end result is introspective and uplifting. The goal of the track was to have listeners reflect and celebrate the small things in life, so its creators had fans and friends send in clips doing things they love for the official music video. “Whether you are dancing, doing karate in the garage, brushing your teeth with your sweet Star Wars lightsaber toothbrush (We know we can’t be the only ones!), this record is all about being yourself and being happy ‘where you are,’...
SLANDER has joined Ophelia Records alumnus Jason Ross for a purifying new collaboration, “Better Than Heaven” featuring JT Roach. The densely melodic single is in alignment with SLANDER’s “heaven trap” roots, a niche sub-genre consisting of thumping trap 808’s and uplifting leads, which the duo themselves coined. The euphoric single achieves an apex that comes nothing short of befitting its title. Both SLANDER and Jason Ross have reputations for crafting leads that are larger than life and the producers’ combined force on “Better Than Heaven” is enough to leave listeners in a surrounding state of bliss. SLANDER strategically premiered the show-stopping track on one of the world’s biggest stages possi...
