SLANDER, Alison Wonderland and Said The Sky Share the Last Word In Massive Collab, “Picture”
SLANDER, Alison Wonderland, and Said The Sky couldn’t let 2022 close without having the last word. The trifecta of show-stopping artists arguably saved their best for last with their brand new collaboration, “Picture.” And it’s the blow-the-doors-off type of track we could have only dreamt of. Each tastemakers in their own right, the trio meet in the middle of their stylistic crossroads, yielding a densely melodic anthem with a strong future bass flair. Perhaps less surprising is the notion that “Picture” plays straight into their strengths, specifically in the rigorous building and diffusion of tension. From dainty chords and distant, celestial soundscapes to voluminous synths dripping in reverb, “Picture” rides the wave of melancholic ...
Said The Sky and William Black Tap SayWeCanFly for Rock-Infused Collab, “On My Own”
Ever since its debut during a live set this spring, Said The Sky and William Black‘s “On My Own” has been one of the most hotly anticipated bass collabs of the year. The track, which features SayWeCanFly, is now finally out via Lowly. “On My Own” is four minutes of pure melodic bass bliss, blending punk rock drums and Warped Tour-style vocals with acoustic guitar plucks, anticipative rave claps and a cathartic future bass drop. Said The Sky adds his signature emotional vulnerability to the arrangement while EDM.com Class of 2021 star Black can be heard in its soaring, euphoric synths. “It represents finding the strength and trust to lean on somebody—allowing yourself to be vulnerable during a time of hopelessness and self-doubt,” Sa...

Louis The Child Announce Genre Defying “Alter-Ego” Takeover at Brooklyn Mirage
We’re tuned to expect specific sounds from our favorite artists. Go to an Excision show and you’re getting an abundance of ground-shaking bass and dubstep growls. Seeing Armin van Buuren entails a bright mix of progressive house and trance. But once in a while, major artists surprise us with stark deviations from their established sounds, like Dillon Francis trading his moombahton style for deep house or deadmau5 eschewing his signature electro flair in favor of obscure, pulsing techno under his TESTPILOT moniker. It’s rare to see an event dedicated to artists exploring their left-field tastes though—something Louis The Child hope to change with their latest event concept, “Alter-Ego,” a multi-stage takeover of the Brooklyn Mirage. “We wanted to create an event where artists ar...

More Than Just a Phase: Said The Sky Drops Nostalgic Sophomore Album, “Sentiment”
After attending high school in the early 2010s, it’s tough not to feel sentimental about Said The Sky‘s new album and the definitive new direction in his sophomore album. While it was easy to be excited about Sentiment based on its singles alone, two of which arrived immediately prior to the album’s full release, some of the album’s most surprising—and nostalgic—cuts come with the full release. Between appearances by We The Kings, Parachute, The Maine, State Champs and more, the tracklist of Sentiment oftentimes more closely resembles a Warped Tour lineup than anything else. In fact, we’re still wondering how Said The Sky managed to pull a very rare feature from Motion City Soundtrack on the wittingly self-deprecating “Blue Etern...
