The Force (Re)Awakens: Djedi Returns With Epic New Single “Ambedo”

At the end of last year, we had asked a very important question: will we be seeing The Return of the 'Djedi' in 2023? Well, we're very happy to report that yes, in fact, we are seeing Djedi's return in 2023, and with a huge new track, "Ambedo"! Check out "Ambedo" by Djedi below, via YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d82VhFA0BCw 'Huge' doesn't even begin to properly describe this new Djedi song, but it was the word that came to mind upon hearing "Ambedo" for the first time. That's probably because everything about it is huge--the intensity, the atmosphere, the emotion... In particular, this tune gives major vibes in the realm of 'epic hero reaches the final climax of his story--and the stakes couldn't be more dire!' As a result, we feel that this song would make for ...

Breaking Waves: Pantheon 2022, vol. 3. [Post-Pantheon Ponderings]

It’s absurd to me that Pantheon 2022 is already four weeks behind us. Between the holidays and the “Pantheon flu” so many of us ended up with, I suppose it makes sense that a month seemed to just blow by… but still!  Where did the time go?  Even now, there are some mornings, in those brief moments between sleep and consciousness, that I still dream that I’m going to wake up in Seattle– about to embark on what was a life-changing journey alongside so many members of the wave music community.  I don’t write that with hyperbole– Pantheon 2022 was genuinely a life-changing event for me.  This “Breaking Waves” entry is the first of many to explore life post-Pantheon 2022. This entry specifically contains my own musings about the experience, now that the festival ...

Breaking Waves: Yama on Human Error//, War Dubs, Pantheon & More. [interview]

"Wave encapsulates the whole range of the human experience, from love to grief. There is something that your heart can relate with somewhere in this scene." - Yama on "what does Wave Mean To you?" If there was an award for 'busiest wave producer', it might have to go to Yama this year. In the past few weeks alone, the dude has released two singles, hosted a vibe.digital podcast, and has been promoting the hell out of North America's first-ever wave festival, Pantheon. Before that, Yama was spearheading the coordination of said festival, as well as the annual 'war dubs season' that we all know and love. If you're unfamiliar with Yama, you're in luck. I connected with the artist a little while ago and was able to ask him some questions about all the different roles he takes on in...

"...Wave, to me, is a huge community of people that all love sounds..."-M!NGO, 2022 You ever thank an artist for releasing something? Yes? No? --Well, that was me with M!NGO this week. We’ve hit the midway point in our #gothgirlsummer and ya’ll, let me tell you, I was really thinking I wasn’t going to make it.   At least, that’s what I would tell you if you had asked me earlier this week how I was doing. I’m still melting- and life is still chaos- But, then-- I got a little notification that Mr. M!NGO put together a playlist of “THINGS U MAY HAVE MISSED” on SoundCloud and it turned my whole week around. https://soundcloud.com/jmingo/sets/things-u-may-have-missed That’s not all– If you checked Spotify this week, you’ll notice that he graced us...
