Brent Reid, aka MASTRMIND, is building an empire that reaches from the inner corners of the emotional mind to the vapid freeze of deep space. How are these two images part of the same aesthetic? MASTRMIND marries the feelings and sounds to express the effervescent empathy of EDM and the big, plumes of heavy bass. This is not a happy-medium,…

“2019 is my year of the dark arts, ‘Voodoo’ is my ode to really rave-focused dark, dancefloor music. You can expect heavier, darker, stronger music coming up to round out this year as well,” Ethan Glass shares in anticipation of his forthcoming EP, which capitalizes on ominous symbolism and spectral undertones. Aptly acquainted to the odious verge of electronic music,…

Caleb Enis, also known by his production alias I Am Entropy, is hot on the scene in the realm of all things bass music. Citing an eclectic taste, he attributes his musical inspirations and unique style to Kill the Noise, Mat Zo, and Moody Good because “they are able to write in many different genres or styles, even within the…

Quality over quantity appears to be the motto that Soltan is preaching for the time being. After being relatively quiet over the last year, the Middle Eastern dubstep don made his return to Never Say Die with the frenzy-inducing ‘Face Slam‘ to remind us all that his absence was merely a hiatus and not a full departure from dominance.

This time, the big F brings you to Paris, to meet one of the most interesting boutiques of fresh sounds. Sans Huile De Palm (SHDP) is a young ambitious agency which provides management, booking and promotion services to…

Established bass mogul Antiserum and up-and-coming heavyweight Definitive have teamed up with arguably the most esteemed dubstep vocalists Virus Syndicate to deliver another hard-hitting single on Never Say Die: Black Label titled ‘Warning.’ Hailing from Manchester, the grime collective are well known in the bass scene for adding their crisp, flowing vocals to dubstep tracks from a wide range of artists,…

In late 2017 my SoundCloud digging unearthed a rare gem in zotti’s ‘crystal.’ The impeccable work left me mesmerized and delving through his back catalog to enjoy his equally impressive previous work. I was so blown away that I concluded my post stating, “zotti is the future.” Oddly enough since that date he’s only released one song, a remix of Bonzai’s ‘Cruel’.…
