Long revered for their ability to fluidly oscillate across the spectrum of bass music, the pair have joined forces for a new single called “Without You,” which will appear on Kill The Noise’s upcoming sophomore album EMBRACƎ. With its melodic sensibilities and progressive house backbone, it’s a stark contrast to the tandem’s 2019 collab “The Blood,” a heavy-hitting psytrance and dubstep hybrid. But the notion that “Without You” is a bit of a departure doesn’t make it any less emphatic. Julia Ross’ vocal performance in “Without You” is bot...

Seven Lions and Atlys have done a remarkable job at recreating some of his most prized tracks. “Only Now (in E Minor)” remains just as dynamic and moving as its predecessor, though stirs up completely new emotions. However, “The Blood (in E Minor” is the most ra...
