On top of this, DESTRUCTO also announced his new single, “Bodyback,” which is a shadowy, g-house thumper that’s set for release on a compilation on AC Slater’s famed Night Bass label this Friday. Lastly, he released his Diplo & Friends mix that features some of his own unreleased tracks, “4 Real,” “Beatdown,” and “Future,” as well as other songs from his West Coast EP, and tunes from Sharam Jey, Jauz, GTA, Justin Jay, Genghis Clan, and many more.

Techno | Destructo Takes It Back To The Old School Days of Electronic Music With “Techno”

Long before the days of Swedish House Mafia, Hardwell, Martin Garrix, and the main stage explosion, dance music presided over the underground, lurking the shadows of illegal warehouse raves and secret parties. In those days, electro, big room, and progressive house were afterthoughts – acid house reigned supreme. There are few artists that have been around long enough to truly understand the growth that dance music has gone through, but Destructo is one of them, and he’s throwing it back to the early days with his latest output, “Techno.” Sampling Eminem in his hit song, “Without Me,” Destructo builds the entire track around the verse, “nobody listens to techno,” infusing the track with some thick Roland-303s and buzzing synths.

The last time I saw Wax Motif he was doing a “secret” b2b2b set in this side room at EDC NY with Tommy Trash and Destructo playing some cool house tunes and techno, much like this one. Now he teams up with Colorado based producer Hunter Siegel for this new heater “All Night Man” that samples Big Boi’s classic tune “Kryptonite“.

Events, Review | Pier Of Fear: The Haunted House Tour Takes Over NYC

Posted by on November 7, 2012

Despite being still 5 days away, on Friday October 26th Halloween was in full swing at Pier 94 as the Haunted House Tour made its first stop in its trek across the country in New York City, bringing along a cast that included, Knife Party, Tommy Trash, Style of Eye and others. The sold out pier which has seen the likes of Avicii, Arty and others was rocking all night long with top of the line visuals consisting of an outstanding laser and light display. While it is true that Pier 94’s ventilation system is pretty awful and it becomes a sweat box, despite the size of the venue, the night overall one to remember with some great performances across the board.

Destructo, who’s day job is the head of Hard, the main event organizer of the night, started off the night with a set that mixed together a whole host of different genres getting the night started as the crowd was quickly starting to file in. Fast riser on the scene and hometown kid, Baauer, followed up Destructo with his hip hop infused electronic beats that got the party started with a bouncy mix of trap, electro and hip hop. Next up came Style Of Eye, who delivered my favorite set only to Tommy Trash.
