Cozway is the future. The talented Vancouver based producer has been setting the internet on fire since 2016. With an official remix for Zeds Dead, a release on Quality Good Records and the two most played songs on Jadū Dala, it’s clear that Cozway has a long and promising career ahead of himself. He has quickly become a FUXWITHIT favourite…

Dabow and Thook are two of the best producers out right now. For many, myself included, seeing them come together is a dream come true. A collab sure to set expectations at peak heights, but considering both of their track records it’s no surprise that they deliver. ‘Cliff Jump’ balances a state of calming hypnosis with a sinister and ever-intensifying…

Last month we named Rome in Silver as one of the top artists to watch in our Focus Five segment. It seems we weren’t the only ones with our eye on the California producer. UZ’s Quality Goods Records is known for having a keen eye for talent as well and they’ve proven it yet again by scooping up Rome in…

The Goldie Awards are back! Last year A-Trak took doing it for the culture to new heights by creating a brand new producer and beat battle known as the Goldie Awards.

The opening synths…

Adiidas has been making my brain melt since the first time I heard ‘Same’. His style perfectly blends dark and dirty experimental bass with a trap backbone. The result is boundary pushing music that still packs a steady knock. This ability is on full display with his debut EP My Cat. Setting things of with ‘G’ Ft. Georgia P. Adiidas wastes…

Hometown heroes Zeds Dead have been doing it for Toronto for nearly a decade. From their early days feeding the underground with Bassmentality, to their annual concerts, to dropping in for impromtu B2Bs at The Hoxton. As their following exploded, they’ve gone from local favourites to international headliners, but they’ve never forgotten about the city that birthed their career. On…
