Listen to Galo’s Unapologetic Tech House Banger, “Bad B”
Galo is back with “Bad B,” the latest tech house weapon in an arsenal that seems to grow stronger with each release from the blossoming DJ and dance music producer.

Delayed ad-libs moonlight as a siren song, leading us into a long build where frenetic snares and panned rave leads amplify the tension. He eventually unloads a cathartic second drop, bringing the arrangement...

G Jones and EPROM Drop Fan-Favorite ID, “R.A.V.E.”
Two weeks after exploring the sounds of rave music’s past in a scintillating mixtape, G Jones and EPROM have released one of its hotly anticipated tracks. Late last month, the duo shared remixes, unreleased collaborations and more as the “Disk Doctors.” Harnessing both of their masterful abilities, they brought forth an impressive collection of old-school, acid-tinged tracks that fused the sounds of the 90s with their signature production style.
