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 is still alive and thriving.

Now, WAVEDASH and Shadient return to Gud Vibrations with another menacing track titled ‘Tung Tiied’ to further showcase their versatility, inventiveness and raw talent. The new single carries an underlying punk essence in the introduction without escaping the heavy bass style that each has mastered over the years. After a high-intensity opening, ‘Tung Tiied’ quickly evolves into a wicked dubstep piece highlighted by sharp sound design, all-engulfing basses and an energy that can not be tamed. The potency of the track only continues to grow from there, with a hardstyle-leaning section only playing a piece in what is a mesmerizing second half.

WAVEDASH and Shadient are bass music geniuses. The proof is below.

Shadient Explores Broad Spectrum Of Dance Music In ‘Divide’ EP

Steph Contant — Thu, 04 Apr 2019 21:40:42 +0000

Over the past few weeks, Shadient has been busy releasing singles from his highly-anticipated sophomore EP. First came the neuro-dystopian ‘Abberate‘, which reminded us all that the British producer is among the best at creating boundary-pushing bass music in a sea saturated with generic midtempo. ‘Numbers Station‘ and ‘Medination‘ followed suit, where the eccentric artist further pushed some of his distinct sounds into the depths of dark, experimental music.

Today marks the release of the fourth and final track, ‘Cyclone‘, as well as the Divide EP in full. “Some of my more primary influences initially were Gesaffelstein, Boys Noize, and Aphex Twins. Very minimalistic and dark European techno artists but I always felt that palette could be explored in a more musical way,” cites Shadient about the motivation behind his work. Exploited to a tee in all four tracks, the unique producer offers fans a diverse listening experience with his Divide EP, breaking the barrier between gritty bass and elegant musicality. Drawing influence from a broad spectrum of dance music such as breakbeat in ‘Cyclone’ and drum & bass in ‘Numbers Station’, listeners are always kept on their toes, as Shadient weaves through these genres effortlessly.

Strap in and dive into the Divide EP below, out now on NGHTMRE and Slander’s Gud Vibrations label!

Shadient Deviates From The Norm With ‘Abberate’

Back when midtempo was relatively new, Shadient was at the forefront of the genre with unique projects such as his winter=reality EP continuously pushing the dark sounds to new depths. Since then, the British producer has always remained ahead of the curve, carving his own path within the now-saturated midtempo realm. Through originals such as ‘COLLIDER‘ and official remixes for the likes of RL Grime and WAVEDASH, Shadient has consistently been the secret weapon within the dark bass community, blurring the lines between his original sound, dubstep and electro.

This week, Shadient declared that he had officially signed with NGHTMRE and Slander’s Gud Vibrations label, accompanied by the announcement of a new four-track project, of which the first track, ‘Abberate’, is out today. “My primary focus with this entire release was inspired by the idea of delving into one’s nostalgia and to explore the first pieces of dance music I ever heard,” the creative producer states about his latest work. Deviating from what is considered normal, the aptly-named track is a wicked introduction to the British producer’s second EP. Shadient creates dystopian soundscapes with robotic samples and neuro synths, forging an eerie feeling of darkness within anyone who listens. Undoubtedly one of his most unusual concoctions to date, the British mastermind fuses trap, raw industrial techno and big beat in an unparalleled manner. Transporting listeners to the future with spine-chilling effects and pristine sound design, ‘Abberate’ is sure to have leave fans itching for more. Don’t miss it below.

Shadient Kicks It Up A Notch In ‘COLLIDER’

Steph Contant — Fri, 17 Aug 2018 18:59:04 +0000

Shadient may be the perfect embodiment of the corny yet accurate cliché “quality over quantity”. With only a couple of handfuls of tracks released under his name, this hasn’t stopped him from earning the respect of electronic music’s most elite artists such as Kill The Noise, Rezz and Mat Zo, to name a few. After a highly acclaimed debut EP titled winter=reality released last spring on MAD ZOO, the talented producer has been relatively quiet in the past year before surprising fans with three tracks over the last three months, including a bass masterpiece released yesterday on MAD ZOO.

Following an eerie remix for Wavedash & Quest’s ‘Devil Music’ and an electro-inspired flip of Virtual Self’s ‘Ghost Voices’, Shadient has returned with one of his darkest tunes to date in the form of ‘COLLIDER’. The producer starts off with a frantic soundscape reminiscent of a horror movie, before leading us into the depths of his sinister mind with twisted, grimy synths and spine-chilling effects. The second drop takes a complete one-eighty with even more distorted bass perfection than the first. ‘COLLIDER’ flawlessly encompasses what Shadient brings to the electronic music scene: an incredibly unique take on a genre that is quickly becoming over-saturated. Do not sleep on this guy.
