After the success of Aitch’s debut project, AitcH20, it’s no wonder the young Mancunian star is back with more fire for his ever growing fan base. With a successful tour at the end of last year and similar success in the charts to partner it, Aitch is the man of the moment. AitcH20 had a noticeable sound and style throughout…

We dare you to find two producers making more of an impact on the beat-making scene right now than Sebjin and Chromonicci. The former has been steadily putting out our favourite trap and future beat bops over the last few months, while the latter is coming off the addicting ‘Apocalypse‘ and the bouncy ‘Tesseract‘ in the last week alone. Now,…

Using music as a bridge to span the length of the Pacific Ocean, Los Angeles’s JOOL and Melbourne, Australia’s Skrybe have come together for their first big-time collaboration out on London’s Never Say Die Black Label. Jool’s 2020 has already been one of major success, with massive collaborations with the likes of Megalodon and Hukae under his belt. Skrybe has…

MIST, the Brum hitmaker that doesn’t seem to be stopping at anything. Born and raised in Birmingham, MIST comes with a different accent to many of the other artists featured on our Across The Pond segment so far. Just North of London, the area is no stranger to having rap stars, but MIST’s voice in particular seems like he was…

WAVEDASH and Shadient are quickly becoming a favourite for go-to collaborations. Despite only releasing their first tune together in late 2018, the Austin-based trio and British artist have been friends for a while and their chemistry is undeniable. Since then, the producers have shared their first original in the form of ‘Get Wicked,’ demonstrating to all how innovative bass music…

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past 6 months, you’ve heard the names Smoakland and SuperAve floated feverishly around the bass music realms, excitement and childhood glee twinkling in the eyes of all that mention their names. With an emphasis on bone-crushing low-end and stylistically bouncy creations that make your body vibrate viciously at a subatomic level,…

In the bass music community, the general trend for an artist is they’ll only have a few successful releases in a given year. Holly has been a consistent enigma in this regard, having several hundred confirmed releases already, and many many more that even haven’t had the right time to come out, or may never actually see the light of…

To say that this day has been a long time coming would be an understatement. Die-hard JOYRYDE fans will remember the days of NEST HQ announcing an EP on OWSLA in late 2017, before it getting scrapped only to be turned into an announcement for a full-length project. Another album delay, a few track delays and a label change later,…
