Okay folks, it’s happening. I know it’s been over two years, but stay calm, take a breath and try to not scream. At least until tomorrow, when Deadcrow’and Remnant.exe’s Reign will be fully released. The lore of this monster of a tune goes back to May 2019, when the legends skeler and Ytho gave it its first documented spin (shout…

Djs and curators, open your ears wide open because you’re in for a treat. Not ten, not twenty, but thirty-two fresh cuts for your sets, mixes, and radio shows.

From when it was a kid’s dream, to becoming one of the hottest names in the bass music scene. What a journey…

This is my 200th article on FUXWITHIT. That’s it, that’s the tweet. Oh wait, I’m not on Twitter. Sometimes I’m so inured by this social media-centric world that it feels unusual to not have to deal with character limits or have to abide by any algorithms. You know what, here’s a random link just because I can include it without…
