Last year we named LA90 one of the 10 labels that you need to know. The budding label consistently put out some of the most forward-thinking and interesting bass music in 2017 and it looks like that effort is set to continue for 2018. Today we have the pleasure of premiering their first release of the year: Hendrik Joerges ‘Resonance.’…

Kannibalen Records is known for unfurling aggressive, dark electro artists that churn out post-modern, apocalyptic aesthetics and ferociously-in-your-face, bass-laden beats. Lektrique leads the attack in 2018 for the Kannifam with ‘Laidback,’ a track that stands out with a throw-back, techno-house banger. Known for casting an air of nostalgia with classic electronic sounds and bending them around ripping bass lines, this…

Belgian duo, Ganja White Night, are making waves with their famous wobbles, fresh genre combos, respectable collabs, and Gorillas-esque art and aesthetics. With a tour about to kick off that will crisscross the United States, we can expect Ganja White Night to bring warm reggae vibes, beaming with dubstep bass, and smashed with their signature wobble sound, to masses of…

Every year for the past few years has been heralded as the year Moombahton comes back. And every year some Moombahton records make waves but ultimately the genre never fully re-ignites. It looks as though Dillon Francis may be trying to change that with his new release ‘Ven’. The track blends Dillon’s Moombahton roots with the continually growing Latin Trap…

Vincent is back with a remix that’s sure to slaughter sets for the forseeable future. The rework builds on the strong foundation of Blaise’s ‘Dua,’ carrying over the icy piano and infectious hook, while injecting in an absurd amount of energy. When the bass and snapping drums come in just before the one minute mark, you’ll think “damn this goes…

Five months after the ideas collection and his latest appearance on his potential side profile s.charles, Sam Gellaitry has set Soundcloud upside down putting out new material. Sure to please longtime fans, ‘hibernation’ brings back the ‘escapism’ vibes in full force, but with a slightly different turn. Usually sparkling and cinematic, here the infamous Gellaitry style goes for a more housy mood.…

Sounding fierce right now and ready to buy or stream is ‘On My Own,’ the latest single to come from the studio of Germany’s Drunken Masters. Known for some massive tunes including “Louder” ft. Portugal The Man, the pair have channeled all their best vibes into this new track. Mothica, the darkly expressive pop artist who is making herself quite…

Yet another Crystals artist to wow us in 2018 is none of than ELEX. First catching our ear with ‘Slow Death,’ he’s now snatched our full attention with the release of his new EP EDM Vegan. The five track effort is laced with booming bass and jam-packed with slappers. ‘Local’ gets the party started with a bouncy energy, killer vocal bends…

It’s safe to say that Canada-raised, LA-based Troy Beetles, best known to the world as Datsik, made 2017 a massive year – both as a solo artist, and with his collaborative project with Bais Haus, Ephwurd. Last year saw highlights such as him and Bais starting their own record label, to fully rocking in the advent of his late-2016 EP,…

Since the release of Searching Sylvan, Sylvan LaCue has consistently proven he’s one of the best rappers out. While he may not receive the popularity or looks of artists like J. Cole and Chance The Rapper, the quality of his music is certainly on par. With the release of Apologies in Advance, Sylvan proves this once more. While a large portion…
