Space Laces Fearlessly Embraces a New Era On Long-Awaited “High Vaultage” EP: Listen
A new era of Space Laces has arrived. The Louisville producer has finally released his hotly anticipated High Vaultage EP via his home of Never Say Die. With each ingenious release, Space Laces never fails to shake up the bass music scene. High Vaultage is no different, as he’s disassembled parts of his fan-favorite “Vaultage” mixes and consolidated them as a cohesive EP. From start to finish, it’s jam-packed with instant classics. Each of the EP’s five songs are impeccable, making it impossible to designate a highlight. “Droid” samples Star Wars while “Not Bees” includes a sample from Nick Cage’s famous scene in The Wicker Man, and both employ high-energy house rhythms. “Disco Bloodbath” and ̶...
Netsky and Montell2099 Collide On Anthemic Drum & Bass Track, “Broken”
Netsky and Montell2099 have collided once again on a riveting new single called “Broken.” Though many might expect a collab between Netsky and Montell2099 to land on the harder side of the drum & bass spectrum, “Broken” is quite the opposite. Opening with melancholic lyrics crooning about a breakup, the track quickly builds into a rumbling, synth-driven drop. Whether the song finds itself being played out in a club, a festival, or a car, the scintillating “Broken” is a drum & bass essential and a crowning achievement for both artists’ discographies. The connection between this pairing is undeniable. “Broken” marks the second time Netsky and Montell2099 have crossed paths after they collaborated on 2020’s “Mixed ...

Fresh off a nod in EDM.com‘s Class of 2022, LODATO has teamed up with rising pop star Leah Kate to remix her defiant single “F U Anthem.” True to form, LODATO takes the brooding pop-rock track and transports it to club territory.

And the drop is high-energy, blending elements of future and electro house while interpolating a gritty guitar riff. It’s one of the many reasons the song was immediately added to SiriusXM’s popular “BPM” channel after its release. The new “F U Anthem” remix is the latest in a dizzying string...
Gesaffelstein Contributes Menacing Production On KayCyy’s Single, “OKAY!”
KayCyy is feeling at ease in his new single “OKAY!” produced by the enigmatic Gesaffelstein. The Frenchman returns with his first production credit since his contributions to one of the most high-profile albums in recent memory, DONDA by Ye (formally known as Kanye West). Always one to make a larger-than-life impression with menacingly dark sonics, Gesaffelstein doesn’t disappoint. Gesaffelstein’s raw and grungy bassline steals the show on “OKAY!,” completely leveling anything in its path on the low end. The energy finds its complement in a deliberately snaking analog synth melody. The winding sequence is enough to get stuck in one’s head much like KayCyy’s positively affirming lyrics, which echo in an ethereal cocktail of reverb and de...

Smiles Only Drop Ferocious “New Era” EP
Contrary to their name, the new EP from Smiles Only is far from a ray of sunshine. The budding Canadian electronic music duo have dropped New Era, a blistering five-track EP out now via Emengy Records. While the EP runs roughshod with dubstep influences, it contains tinctures of melodic bass music that infuse layers of depth within.

Next comes two ominous midtempo bangers, “No Escape” and “Save The Humans,” each of which feature vicious sound d...
