It would take an entire book to exhaustively report what 2023 has been for the wave scene and perhaps there will be time for that in the future. For the sake of brevity, today it’s sufficient to remember that there have never been so many (and such big) wave events in a single year, the scene’s top artists have performed…

This year we saw several Wave producers embarking on new sonic journeys. Some have flirted with drum&bass, some with phonk and others have dabbled in trance and other declinations of four-on-the-floor rhythms. ÆSTRAL is one of the heavyweights of the scene involved in this trend, and his new EP, Last Dance, fully embraces these latter genres. Mainly known for his…

Put on your best suit ladies and gentlemen because today’s premiere is one for the books. Two heavyweights of the wave movement collide in a spectacular big bang. On one hand, we have the “same old” vibe.digital, tireless promoter of the wave verb, and on the other, we have who, at the moment, sits at the pinnacle of the scene:…

Our very own tearsofmine is having quite a busy 2023 so far. Bootlegs, mixes, his debut EP, he’s been all over the place cementing the status of the project. With the calendar marking minus sixty days to the end of the year, he welcomes the final rush by joining forces with Bafu on a brand new single titled ‘Inner Void’.…

Wave and phonk (no, not the TikTok version) have always been fertile ground for the mixes and mixtape culture. skeler’s Night Drive series will probably be the first example that comes to mind as it has arisen as the most popular example, but this is a practice that has been present since way before and it is still being maintained.…

In 2023 there’s certainly no shortage of wave music, but the release we’re premiering today is a real happening. Not only because Evolve represents iSorin‘s first solo EP since 2019, but also because it sees him collaborating again with the infallible vibe.digital team. In short, we’re before an all-star lineup assembled for a project that promises (and delivers) a memorable…

Making a star-striking appearance on Ophelia Records’ brand new compilation, Bafu and Altare join forces once again for a new single, ‘LOOK4U.’ Making their mark once again with pure might and elegance. Swirling through your hearts with their vast and powerful techniques through production and vision. And creating senses of adoration and peace from angelic melodies, vast arrangement, and pure…

On FUXWITHIT’s pages, I celebrate him mainly for his work as A&R of vibe.digital, but I would not want you to forget that M!NGO also knows how to steal the show with his own creations. This time, the wave maestro has decided to remind us with a brand new double release titled ‘La Morte’ and ‘Botnet’. These two are not…

Often snubbed for their lack of economic results, compilations remain the cultural medium par excellence. While albums are the best way for artists to build and give voice to their identity, compilations are the counterpart for genres, scenes, and movements. The wave scene has been no exception. Since the publication of wavemob and Terrorrhytm’s compilations, which literally acted as the…

When it comes to rvnti‘s art, sounds of the future are scribed in true poetic fashion. The beautiful compositions throughout his discography are nothing but impressive and mind-blowing. Making listeners fall into a deep trance through each piece. Transporting them to a dark, grimy, and complex utopia. Deep within a distant world not yet discovered. Integrating organic raw passion to…
