A good friend of mine threw this track on my radar, and I’m glad he did, this banger “Gypsy Rhythm” by Choice is R&B D&B to my ears, aka a fusion of Rhythm n Blues and Drum n Bass. To be honest, I’m sharing this track though I feel like this tune isn’t done, and serves more as a demo to what’s to come, but shit, he’s got me listening. If I had to place a reference, think Metrik, Camo & Crooked, Ayah Marar, press play, this is a must listen, the vocals are sick!

Varien, one of Monstercat’s serial returning bass renegades, is not afraid to switch up his style during his exploration of finding his niche sound. Feeling comfortable in the sphere of bass heavy productions, the Tampa-based producer releases his latest depth-dropping single “Aether and Light.” A contrast is strung throughout as Varien starts off with a Middle Eastern-tinged, bright refrain that he then builds into a stabbing, snarling drop that is one part dubstep and one part something else. Another truly unique output from Varien, you can grab your copy of “Aether and Light” here via Monstercat.

Bass | The Enigmatic HI-LO Gives Us A First Taste Of His Sound With “Crank It Up”

Future house is becoming a norm now and producers are really having to think outside the box to differentiate themselves from the pack. Bass house, a sub-genre of sorts, has been in the works to find its exact sound with producers like Jauz and Ghastly morphing dubstep and future house into a middle ground. After finding this track through the daily Soundcloud search, it seems that HI-Lo should be added to this list. His debut track, “Crank It Up,” shifts the balance of bass-driven house sounds towards the techier side of things and does not go light on how much bass it uses, which in this case is pretty stellar. You’re going to want to check this kid out as he has already been picked up by Diplo to release the track via Mad Decent on June 25th.

The Mysteryland USA headliners and heavyweight acts are quite possibly one of the most diverse lineup of electronic acts of any festival. From Adam Beyer to Madeon to Robin Schulz to Diplo, every genre under the son is represented, but if you look even closer at the “smaller” names, there is some serious talent grumbling on the smaller stages of the festival’s second year. On the Webster Hall Presents Boys + Girls stage, the names are all impressive, and to show off what that stage will be bringing on the Sunday of Mysteryland, Sweater Beats was brought on to give a taste of what fans can expect with the second volume of the festival’s ‘Music of Mystery’ mixtape series. A glitchy, ADHD-injected medley of future cuts, Sweater Beats mixes 65+ tracks in the small space of an hour masterfully and really demonstrates what will be happening when he takes his place behind the decks. Get your mind thrown for a whirl with the stream above and tickets for Mysteryland USA are available here.
