Subtronics Drops Exclusive Gucci Mane Flip on Audius
Subtronics‘ rise to the forefront of bass music can be attributed to many things, including his unique sound and out-of-this-world live performances. Lately, the Philly-born producer has been churning out some of the most heavy-hitting remixes, such as his rework of Capone‘s viral TikTok track “Oh No.” For his latest, Subtronics has returned with a wild flip of Gucci Mane‘s “I Might Be” via Audius. Subtronics ditches the original beat of “I Might Be,” cooking up his own with modern electronic elements that reflect his bass-focused creativity. The flip is reminiscent of his remix of “GodLovesUgly” with Zeds Dead, as he similarly retains the original verses while distorting them to add a bit of his own flair. The la...
EDM.com’s Best of 2020: Music Producers
This year, the team at EDM.com is proud to publish four installments of “Best of 2020” coverage: Industry Leaders, Performances, Music Producers, and Songs. DJing and music production are different. But the difference between the two is like a wallflower—it hides in plain sight, and it is vastly misunderstood. Many artists do both, but not all DJs produce music and not all music producers DJ. Producers create the music that a DJ will then play out to crowds—it’s an important distinction that eludes many. Like a sleek Lamborghini driving from one coast to another, the art of DJing is a stylish means to an end. And music production is the engine that powers it. To publish a “Top DJ” list would be to undermine the originality, ingenuity, and dauntless imagin...

After Cryptic Email Campaign, Subtronics Announces Debut Cyclops Compilation
Last week, a number of electronic music producers received random, cryptic emails from an address that looks like it was comprised of hieroglyphics. Many of those artists tweeted about the email in a collective “WTF” moment, sharing screenshots of it to the bewilderment of EDM Twitter. Adding to the mystique of the whole email quandary was its contents. In a blurb that looks like it was plucked out of a Hunger Games book, the email simply reads, “You have been selected. You will be required to use your individual set of skills in order to survive. Your first mission launches soon.” Confused by the email and its Liam Neeson quote from Taken, many of the artists who received it tried to decipher the message, but to no avail. The source of the email...
