The Purge & Coldax & Hans Glock - SIDEQUEST (Tetris Mix)
Read more . . . →A hardstyle track called “SIDEQUEST (Tetris Mix).” The only thing missing is a boss fight. Dirty Workz going full gamer and I’m here for it.

Drove - All Along
Read more . . . →Found this on MrSuicideSheep, which has a way of surfacing stuff that doesn’t fit cleanly into any genre box. “All Along” by Drove is one of those tracks where you’re not quite sure what category it lives in — it’s got the pacing of downtempo, the textures of something more restrained, but every time you think it’s going to stay seated it kicks back up again. The melodic line that runs through the whole thing is stupid simple. It works every single time. There’s a patience to how Drove builds this track that a lot of producers in this space...

DJ Marky & Makoto - It's Alright, I Feel It (ft. Vanessa Freeman)
Read more . . . →DJ Marky is basically a living institution at this point, and pairing him with Makoto and Vanessa Freeman on the hook is about as much pedigree as you can stack on a single DnB track. “It’s Alright, I Feel It” is exactly what you’d expect from Hospital Records — warm, liquid, impeccably constructed. Freeman’s vocal is the kind of thing that’s been genuinely missing from this sound for a while: full-throated and present, not just chopped into samples and buried under the mix. The production actually gives the voice room to breathe, which is harder than it sounds when you’re...

Surreal - Inbetween
Read more . . . →Liquicity keeps surfacing stuff like this and I keep posting it. “Inbetween” is exactly what liquid DnB is supposed to feel like — that bassline rollout around the 1-minute mark is perfect.

SubDocta, Wubbaduck - Wobble Dance
Read more . . . →WAKAAN delivering whatever you’d call this. “Wobble Dance” with Wubbaduck is the kind of track that makes “experimental bass” feel like an understatement.

Dirt Monkey feat. Mississippi The Truth - Marshmallows
Read more . . . →WAKAAN has carved out a specific niche — bass music that’s weird enough to be interesting and heavy enough to still move a room — and “Marshmallows” by Dirt Monkey featuring Mississippi The Truth is a good encapsulation of why that niche matters. The name is deceptive. There is nothing soft about this track. The bass weight is substantial, the production is genuinely strange in places, and Mississippi The Truth’s feature adds a human dimension that most experimental bass tracks don’t bother attempting. Dirt Monkey has been doing this long enough that the craft shows — this isn’t random weirdness,...

Zero T, Steo & Onj - Onslaught
Read more . . . →The title is accurate. Zero T has been making DnB for long enough that when he drops something with this much muscle in it, you just trust the process. Onslaught is dense, rolling, the kind of track that sounds like it’s accelerating even when it’s already at full speed. Steo and Onj bring the kind of collaboration energy that makes the track feel like three people actually worked on it together instead of just adding their names. Hospital Records doesn’t miss much, and this is another one they got right. The bass pressure throughout this is something you really need...

Dillon Francis, Allenora, America Foster - RIDDEM
Read more . . . →Dillon Francis doing a trap-influenced track on Monstercat is exactly as chaotic as you’d expect, and that’s not a complaint. “RIDDEM” leans hard into that dirty, bouncy energy that made him famous in the first place — the kind of bass pressure that physically relocates your organs. Allenora and America Foster bring vocals that keep it from being a pure instrumental banger, and the combination actually works better than you’d think going in. The vocal layering in the hook is relentless; you won’t get it out of your head and you’re going to be slightly annoyed about it. Francis has...

Movement Detroit is 19 days out — here's your pre-game
Read more . . . →Memorial Day weekend, Hart Plaza, Detroit. While the rest of North America fires up a grill and watches cars go in circles, the real pilgrimage is to the birthplace of techno. Movement 2026 is 19 days away and the lineup actually means something — Carl Cox headlining, Blawan on the bill, Sara Landry bringing the hard stuff, Terrence Dixon and Juan Atkins playing their own city’s festival.
