Longtime fans will feel at home listening to “Every Time,” a single replete with all the hallmarks of a signature Seven Lions record. Seven Lions’ debut album, “Beyond The Veil,” is scheduled to release on October 21st, 2022. Ashley Von Helsing With its lilting, empyrean sound design, “Every Time” beautifully lays the groundwork for an album that feels like a tour de force for the melodic bass pioneer.

Experiencing a breakthrough 2022, bass music star Lizzy Jane has unveiled a new single, “Chemical Love.” Teaming up with Adam Jasim and vocalist Mercedes Arn-Horn, Jane produced a spellbinding melodic bass track. Brimming with hair-raising sound design and emotive sequences, “Chemical Love” is as imaginative as it is aching. From a production standpoint, Jane and Jasim artfully manage to blend subtle tonalities with euphoric, lilting synths against the backdrop of Arn-Horn’s potent topline. It all culminates in a cascading bass drop, the pinnacle of an arrangement that Jane calls “an anthem for the feels of summer.” “Chemical Love” arrives as Jane prepares for the release of her upcoming debut EP, which is expected to drop in late 20...

One of the electronic music scene’s most cherished melodic dubstep producers has released his first album in over 10 years. On Christmas Day, Home, the long-awaited third album from Blackmill, finally arrived. The quiet producer did not launch any grandiose marketing campaigns or TikTok challenges to promote his new release, a serendipitous and unexpected drop for many.

Despite its subtle release, Home is anything but. Blackmill picked up right where he left off with enchanting soundscapes and nostalgic production that tell a vivid and endearing story. Th...
Starting as a hardcore pop-punk band before evolving into a powerhouse dubstep production duo, Adventure Club have cemented themselves as bass music legends over the course of the last decade. However, despite touring the world and putting out dozens of singles in that time, they’ve only released one studio album, Red // Blue, back in 2016. But that’s all about to change. After dropping a slew of singles this year, including the euphoric “Broken Love” (with Cammie Robinson) and the uplifting “Anywhere” (with ARMNHMR and HALIENE), Adventure Club are on the verge of releasing a new album called Love // Chaos. Now back on tour and with Love // Chaos complete, Christian Srigley and Leighton James of Adventure Club caught up with EDM....
From early works like “Do I See Color” and “Rise & Fall,” Adventure Club have always set the bar high. Today the Montréal-based electronic music duo have unveiled “Drive,” the newest single from their forthcoming album, Love // Chaos. Always in tow with dynamos, the track features climbing vocals from Tilian Pearson of Sacramento’s Dance Gavin Dance and an unmistakable signature from the popular remixing DJ brothers, BEAUZ. Both chilling and energetic, and yet totally in step with their past chart-toppers like “Crash 2.0” and “Next Life,” “Drive” is a fresh and synthy anthem. A perfect next chapter for the melodic dubstep genre, which the two sired around 10 years ago. Check out the new single below. Recommended Articles ...
The path to Adventure Club‘s sophomore album is clearer than ever after the duo dropped one of its singles, a must-listen melodic dubstep track called “Safe With Me.” Produced alongside Soar, “Safe With Me” is nothing short of breathtaking. Luma provides a gripping topline, brilliantly singing about finding solace in the arms of another while the world crumbles—a concept we can all relate to after the hellscape of a year that was 2020. Her vocals serenade hypnotic production in the verse, which builds and eventually culminates in a classic Adventure Club drop. The song is far from cookie-cutter, and its depth deepens as the arrangement glides along. The second drop is a masterclass in musical composition, thanks to the clever sync...
Taking us across a cosmic journey, New Jersey-based producer Au5 has teamed up with Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter HALIENE to produce a sky-high melodic bass track called “Was It You.” The production follows his latest masterful collaboration with Tritonal and Dylan Matthew, “Happy Where We Are,” and his recent single “Anywhere,” in which he partnered up with prominent bass music duo SLANDER. “Was It You” takes listeners through the highs and lows of emotive bass music, with deep basslines and warm synths layered underneath an ethereal topline from HALIENE. Her distinctly dreamy sound is accompanied by Au5’s signature production style, making “Was It You” a must-listen. With his unique melodic sound ...
