ISOxo’s Debut EP is a Showcase of the Future of Trap Music: Listen
One of the brightest young producers in electronic music has finally unveiled his debut EP—and it’s a special one. ISOxo dropped his Nightrealm EP today via RL Grime’s Sable Valley imprint. And there’s a reason why Grime, who is considered a trailblazer in trap music, snapped up this record: it’s a vehicle to showcase the genre’s future. EDM fans have a habit of skipping to the loudest parts of a song’s waveform—also known as the drop—but doing so would be a crime with Nightrealm. Each of its five tracks are cinematic in nature, rife with eerie, visceral melodies that breathe life into their drops. Artwork for ISOxo’s “Nightrealm” EP.

Rosalía Teams with Tokischa for New Song “Linda”: Stream
Rosalía has joined forces with rising Dominican dembow artist Tokischa for a collaborative single called “Linda.” They’ve also shared a steamy music video for the track. While Rosalía is one of the biggest names in Latin music, Tokischa is one of the most controversial. Still, the latter’s rebellious, authentic nature and unique blend of trap and dancehall sounds has drawn plenty of positive attention in the music world. Speaking in a recent interview for an outlet in the Dominican Republic (via a press release), Rosalía said of her collaborator, “Tokischa is an irreverent woman, a woman who speaks frankly and isn’t afraid to make people uncomfortable. Tokischa is a woman who is going to make a big impact just based on the message that she gives and what she represents. She is a woman who ...

Alison Wonderland Teases Return of Whyte Fang Alias With Never-Before-Heard Song: Watch
During a recent DJ set in the metaverse, Alison Wonderland conjured some black magic by unveiling a haunting unreleased song, which she produced under the guise of a decade-old alias. Back in May we reported on the revival of Whyte Fang, a musical nom de plume developed as early as 2011. New music from the side project hasn’t arrived since January 2014, but Wonderland ignited the rumor mill after posting a cryptic photo that many believed correlated to a release on the horizon.

Watch Dillon Francis and Eptic Debut Wild Unreleased Collab at HARD Summer 2021
The EDM community is healing, and after over a year in quarantine it seems artists have more unreleased music to play out than ever. That brings us to last weekend, when more DJs appeared at HARD Summer than a free flight to Ibiza. Among them were Dillon Francis and Eptic, who seized the opportunity to perform at one of SoCal’s first major festivals back—and a triumphant one at that—to reveal a brand new collab. The two electronic music superstars teamed up back in August 2019 for a moombahton banger called “Let It Go,” but this time around they’ve opted to go the trap route. Fans were able to hear a clear fusion of both artists, as the track roars with the screeching synths of Eptic and the classic trap brass of Francis. And if their reaction is any indic...
TroyBoi Flexes Signature Sound on Woozy Trap Banger “MADTING”: Listen
TroyBoi is back with his latest trap hit, a woozy banger called “MADTING.” The revered electronic music producer, who was named one of EDM.com‘s Best Music Producers of 2020, flexes his signature sound on “MADTING.” With its spacey, minimalistic arrangement and thick low end, it’s classic TroyBoi. There is perhaps no one more astute when it comes to producing in-between the bars than TroyBoi, whose nuanced sound is on full display here. He makes sporadic use of metallic wobbles—akin to the ones heard in his Skrillex-assisted hit “Warlordz”—but they’re strategically splayed throughout the mix so they don’t overpower its other intricate elements. Those include pitched vocal chops and playful flutes, among other production maste...

Long revered for his unique approach to bass music production, Flume flexed his trap music muscles here, creating a quirky yet menacing drop with typically innovative drum syncopation. It is similar in nature to the heavy-hitting “Amber,” which appeared on 2019’s critically acclaimed Hi This Is Flume mixtape. Check out the clip of the unreleased song below. Back in April 2020 Flume confirme...

Wreckno’s unapologetic artistry oozes with the flow and conviction reminiscent of the glam rappers of the early to mid-2000s.

GG Magree Drops Scintillating Single “Loving You Kills Me”
With her previous release of the immaculate “Nervous Habits” still riding on a wave of success, GG Magree has returned to Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak Records with another explosive single called “Loving You Kills Me.” The new single pulls influence from multiple genres, melding rock and trap to create another signature GG Magreetune. The scene opens up with a nostalgic guitar riff as Magree’s heartfelt vocals radiate through the mix, telling the story of loving someone so much to the point it hurts. As the song progresses, a heavy bass drop rattles in, electrifying the arrangement and bringing with it a darker, grittier edge to an otherwise romantic narrative.

Marshmello’s EDM Roots Bubble to the Surface With Ferocious New Collab, “Hitta” With Eptic and Juicy J
Marshmello, Eptic, and Juicy J have joined forces for a monster collaboration called “Hitta.” While “Hitta” doesn’t quite represent a return to form for Marshmello, whose saccharine, fan-favorite future bass beats have taken a backseat to dance-pop and mainstream hip-hop, it’s an unmistakable return to his EDM roots. The track finds Marshemello tapping one of the electronic scene’s most revered sound designers, Eptic, for a hip-hop and bass music hybrid that doubles as an all-out assault on the senses. “Hitta” foams at the mouth with trap ferocity, highlighted by the bombastic dirty south flows of Three 6 Mafia’s Juicy J, who spits furiously over thunderous 808s in the verses. Stentorian brass shots and frenetic sta...
Getter Brings Diverse Sonic Palette Under One Roof With “Some Creatures” EP
Some Creatures, Getter‘s brand new 6-track offering, is finally here. It was immediately evident Getter came to make a statement on this project with the release of “BLOOD HARVEST,” which sees the convergence of his distinct production and vocals from his alter alias, Terror Reid. It’s the first time we’ve seen Getter merge these two creative paths and the crossover goes over with smooth execution. Getter still leaves plenty of room for wonky synths and bass that will blow the doors off, both on the titular track and its rapid-fire follow up, “With No Eyes.” Things take another turn, however, with “From The Dirt,” a multi-genre track with grungy bass, rock distortion, and rugged hip-hop hi-hats. The cut makes for an inte...
Hydraulix and Nitti Gritti Drop Roaring New Single “Waratah” on Wakaan
Fresh off his remix of Liquid Stranger’s “Psychonaut,” Hydraulix has dropped his second single for 2021. Teaming up with Latin Grammy Award-winning producer Nitti Gritti, the roaring “Waratah” has arrived on Wakaan. Hydraulix and Nitti Gritti mark their inaugural collaboration with a screaming, trappy new single that doesn’t shy away from experimentation. The wonky, metallic screeches resonate throughout the main sections, after a dreamlike buildup calls to mind a broken music box to build the energy. That dissonant sentiment is mirrored at the drop, with an enticing melody and plenty of reverb to go around. Strong attention to detail in the percussion steals the show, however, and as the track pushes on, it’s clear why Hydraulix and Nitti Gritti h...
