Despite first coming together on a track when remixing RL Grime’s ‘Era‘ late last year, WAVEDASH and Shadient are no strangers to each other’s work. Having both made the move to NGHTMRE and Slander’s Gud Vibrations label this year, it was only a matter of time until these bass heavyweights came together on an original. The Austin-based trio and Essex-based producer have ceaselessly demonstrated a production prowess beyond their years, and their newest, aptly-titled single ‘Get Wicked’ is no exception to this statement.
Haunting melodies and effects drive the introduction forward from the get-go as crunchy layers of bass are gradually added as the track progresses. When the drop hits, all familiarity of dubstep is lost as WAVEDASH and Shadient unleash an insanely intricate yet relentless offering of hard-hitting synths, before catapulting the track into sheer insanity. A short bridge acts as an interlude into what can only be described as raw, unadulterated madness, where WAVEDASH and Shadient give us a glimpse into the future of heavy bass music. ‘Get Wicked’ is not for the faint of heart but is sure to become a mainstage anthem so don’t miss it below.
