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.

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 ...

Breaking Waves: Wave Wrapped – February 2023

2023 has been an insane year for wave music so far. Between multiple wave music compilations coming out, huge names like Skeler dropping new music, and more--it's easy to lose track of it all. Hell, Skrillex didn't do us or our attention spans any favors, either--I mean, how many albums did he drop so far? Two? Five? Hmph. S0, let's change gears for a moment. Let me welcome you to "Wave Wrapped": a lil semi-monthly listacle of some songs that we feel may have been overlooked. This time around, we're highlighting new tracks by Lorize, Michiya Mirai, KYLLER, KASKIT, and CSV. Enjoy. Check out February's "Wave Wrapped" on Spotify, below: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3lfxIwv7T8Aw2M3DAPuXJ0?si=053b565d2ba248ce Lorize - "Remember" Okay, fine, you caug...
