Yellow Claw Take On Knock2’s House Hit “dashstar*” With Explosive Trap Edit
Knock2‘s breakthrough house hit “dashstar*” has received the trap treatment from none other than Yellow Claw. The bass-heavy track was a big part of Knock2’s meteoric rise in 2022, a year that saw him catapult to dance music stardom and perform at a slew of headline shows and major festivals, including his colossal debut at EDC Las Vegas.

ISOxo Strikes Gold With Frenetic Trap Flip of “Chargé”: Listen
ISOxo isn’t afraid of taking the sounds of bass music’s most seasoned vets into overdrive.

As fans of the blossoming bass music virtu...

It’s not long before he artfully mutates the arrangement into a tense build,...
