To celebrate their return to the big stage, Monstercat has introduced their first-ever label collaboration which honors the whole event and its major achievements. They call it, Compound 2021. And with Westwood Recordings helping to curate this beautiful lineup, it’s hard to not be totally stoked for what lies within! Artists such as The Funk Hunters, So Sus, Akylla and more have all participated to add to this wonderful movement and vision. All creating individual works of art to add to this incredible achievement. An eight-track body of work, honoring brand new up and comers as well as the veterans. Whatever style you’re into within electronic music, there’s something for everyone!

Monstercat Compound has always been such a special event for me, as it allows us to showcase what the organization is all about in my hometown of Vancouver. The Compilation was created to celebrate the incredible talent that Canada has to offer with our global community. I am thrilled to be collaborating with Westwood Recordings on this project, as the impact that they have made on the West Coast electronic music community was a real inspiration for me when I first started working in the industry. – Orri Sachar, Director of Music, Monstercat

The Compound 2021 compilation is a gorgeous new installation that commemorates the service both Monstercat and Westwood Recordings have brought to the industry. From groovy house music, aggressive dubstep, and even some gnarly trap, you’ll have nothing but a healthy and overwhelming smile from each piece. All adding their special flair to spice up this incredible dish of sound and rhythm. Resulting in one of the most memorable compilations of 2021. Each track flows into the next naturally. All the artists and team members should be truly proud of themselves. We’re stoked to hear what’s next for everyone. So make sure to go support these icons by streaming the Compound 2021 compilation everywhere!

And now, to give them even more excitement and emotion, they’ve put together a stunning new remix package for the single. Rounding up major heavy-hitters to help honor the original vision.

Totally blown away by how this remix EP came together.

Can’t wait to start playing these out at festivals this summer!- The Funk Hunters

A few months before Covid hit we got to see Big Gigantic play this tune live at Red Rocks during their set at the last Rowdytown. We had played it in a few DJ sets ourselves earlier that year while we were still finishing the production on it, but experiencing it alongside 10,000 other people when Big G dropped it was pretty surreal and this song has been a special one for us ever since. I feel like we’ve been waiting to release it forever! So I’m super excited to have this finally come out and with Defunk & Akylla on the track too it actually makes this release 100% Canadian which is something we’re also really proud of.

ThE FUNK HUNTERS

The Funk Hunters and Defunk add their flavor with bombastic basslines and dynamic drops that stop you in your tracks. But the song’s magnum opus is Akylla’s passionate vocals that fill this deep, groovy track with soul. She gives us the inside scoop on ‘Warn Ya’ saying, “This song is about a magnetic love that can’t be broken or understood. We all have one of those (; The Funk Hunters embody peace, love, unity, and most importantly…The funk! I’m always honoured to be in their vortex.”

Get ready to get the funk up, but don’t say we didn’t warn ya. You can listen to ‘Warn Ya’ by The Funk Hunters, Defunk, and Akylla below or on your choice of digital streaming provider. You can also buy the song for Bandcamp Friday and all profits go to the artists! Don’t forget to support the artists you love.
