How Iranians Influence EDM: Meet Rezz and Other Transformative Artists of Iranian Descent
Stereotypes often box Iranians into the fields of doctor, engineer or realtor, but they sure know how to have a good time. It isn’t unusual for family gatherings—ones that often welcome dozens of guests—to transform from dinner to dance party in the blink of an eye. Guests wield various instruments seemingly pulled from the ether, a circle forms in the center of the room and a party ensues. So it should come as no surprise that vivacious spirit has found its way to electronic dance music. Iranian ingenuity courses through every level of the genre. There are artists approaching the EDM apex, rising DJs blossoming on the festival circuit and enduring veterans, all of whom share Iranian heritage. For months, Iranians have protested the alleged killing of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini at the h...

Nostalgix Drops Gritty Hip-House Track, “Options”
Nostalgix has dropped the latest record from her forthcoming Supah Fly EP, a hip-house collab with Lano Bandz. Out now on Thrive Music, “Options” is a gritty fusion of hip-hop and house music. The track, which features energetic bars courtesy of Bandz, finds Nostalgix producing a rowdy bass house beat. A sinister electric guitar riff kicks things off before the arrangement erupts into a frenzy of menacing bass and metallic synths. “The writing of ‘Options’ was such a fun process,” explains Nostalgix. “It was the first record I made when I moved to Los Angeles. I met Lano Bandz through my friend Wraith, and we immediately had a vibe together. I got Lano to hop in the vocal booth and start freestyling over a fun instrumental I had.” Fans c...

Dr. Fresch and Nostalgix Drop Gritty Midtempo Single “Ghost” On House Call Records
Dr. Fresch has returned to to his very own House Call Records for his latest single “Ghost.” Featuring the bold vocal stylings of Vancouver DJ, producer and rapper Nostalgix, the midtempo track is dark and gritty. With sinister synths and powerful brass shots, the beat builds anticipation and suspense before it culminates in a huge a midtempo drop. The lyrics of “Ghost” are all about taking the power back and moving on from a toxic relationship: “I’ve been trying too long, it’s time to move on, so ‘poof’ like a ghost I’m gone,” Nostalgix raps. “The idea for ‘Ghost’ arrived abruptly in the midst of the chaos of the pandemic,” Dr. Fresch explained. “I had been isolated for quite awhile and had a sudden burst of energy, dreaming of being ba...
Tchami and AC Slater Assemble Their Finest Artists In “Confession X Night Bass” Album: Listen
Venerated house music producers Tchami and AC Slater have assembled the finest artists from their respective record labels in a bass house showcase, Confessions X Night Bass: The Album. The compilation boasts the brightest stars on both the Night Bass and Confession constellations.

Opting to home in on the similarities between the two house music imprints, the album is cohesive and ultimately delivers a powerful collection of records ready for the dancefloor. Speaking of the dancefloor, the introductory track is a piercing bullet of a record, with its aim on the discotheque. With vocals by Kate Wild, “Only One” is the brainchild of Tchami...
