Wave Wrapped: March 2023

We're back again for another edition of 'Breaking Waves: Wave Wrapped'--this time, we're bringing you some awesome wave music you might've missed from last month, March 2023.

Wave artists vowl., Kareful, and hyperforms--as well as father of wave music, Plastician--were featured at Belgium's Rampage festival as well, thanks to the efforts of the folks at Liquid Ritual...among other cool feats. Sit back and reminisce with me--and let's talk about some cool wavy releases that we may have missed along the way. Wave...

The Emo to EDM Pipeline is Real: Excision x Wooli x The Devil Wears Prada Give Us the “Reasons” Why.

The Emo to EDM Pipeline is Real: Excision x Wooli x The Devil Wears Prada Give Us the “Reasons” Why.

I always love to see a good genre blend--so when I saw this new Excision x Wooli x The Devil Wears Prada track, "Reasons", in my inbox... I got really excited. For some reason, I didn't expect to see these artists all on one song--but together, they're nothing short of magic. Who knew? (Not me, apparently). Even with this year's Disco Punk announcement, sometimes genre lines remain strangely rigid in my head--like how they were when I was in high school. (Remember those cliquey days? Fun...) But, I'm happy to report that the (mental) genre lines have become a bit more fluid, and it's in part thanks to "Reasons". Do be sure to check it out. Listen to "Reasons" by Excision x Wooli x The Devil Wears Prada on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/5cqOmjN3auHvZlhbebzKQx?s...

I Said I Wouldn’t, But I Actually Bought a Cassette Tape: on ‘Terminals’ by Druid & Jok.

Ya'll, I can't believe it, but I actually bought a cassette tape. On Bandcamp Friday. In March 2023. This makes no sense to me, especially since I've definitely gone on one too many rants that sound a little bit like this: "I can't do this anymore, I already did the cassette thing, and the CD thing, and now the oh-so-occasional vinyl thing--and now cassette is coming back, and I--I just can't keep doing this." Then along came Terminals, the new EP by Druid & Jok, out via Decaying Spheres at the beginning of the month... And it was getting a physical release. On cassette, of course. Ugh. The tape came in the mail the other day. and it hit me: I caved. I bought a cassette tape. I'm part of "the problem" now. And, as anticipated, I have absolutely no way of playing ...

Nick Neutronz Gives Us Some Perspective in “The Changes”

In case you missed it, Nick Neutronz is 'back on his bullshit', as the kids say. He released "The Changes" earlier this month, and quite frankly, it changed me. Nick Neutronz is someone we all really need to keep a better eye on--because when Nick puts out new music, we can never know what to expect. In the best possible way. Let's look at some examples from 2022: in December, he put out this dark, moody, lights-down-low-at-the-club type banger of a collab with lonewulf, "Pyrex". Yet, in June, Nick dropped this little high-tempo, all-encompassing, like-an-emotional-plea-but-could-still-probably-end-up-on-the-radio track called "Surrender". But, let's not forget how he started the year off, either--with "Hikikomori". Alessio Anesi of FUXWITHIT describes that song best: it's ...
