One thing we love to see at FUX is the complete disregard for the confines of genres. One of the names on this ever-growing list is the rising star out of San Diego, or as we know him by, Knock2. After quickly rising to prominence in the underground trap and bass scene, Knock2 has quickly shown us that he is a cat of many tricks. After taking the festival scene by storm with his massive collaboration with fellow Sable Valley member isoxo, with ‘Radial’, the young talent has shown us his baseline side. Recently, we were blessed with ‘What’s the Move,’ a much welcomed high-energy four-on-the-floor festival-ready banger with the legend himself, Henry Fong. This time Knock2 makes his Night Mode debut with yet again another dancefloor-ready heater with ‘dashstar*.
We begin with hypnotic vocals and the all too familiar chaotic Knock2 one-shots that never fail to hit hard. The lead melody is quickly looped as the drums build the suspense before one of the thickest leads you’ll hear right now takes center stage. From here on, there is a constant sense of call and response that carries the record’s energy with equally as powerful rave stabs as there are basslines. Overall, this track’s specialty is injecting energy into every listener’s ears that it touches, and it is quite successful in that regard. Check out the whole thing below!
