There are so many new artists to listen to each year, but there are a few that stand out above the rest. The Moon Fvm has chosen 15 artists from varying genres that we think are going to the moon in 2024. These artists have already started to establish themselves and you will for sure be seeing their names a lot more over the coming months. We present to you our inaugural class of Rising Stars! Read more about each artist below.
Arkangel is a producer from San Diego who combines “cinematic soundscapes with elements of Indie Pop and R&B.” He released his Paradigm EP in 2023 on Enhanced’s Chill imprint as well as a remix for Klur on its Colorize imprint. His tracks have been featured on Tritonal’s Tritonia Radio multiple times. He is making waves in the deep, melodic, and progressive house scenes.
Yanoy is a house producer hailing from the home of house music, Chicago. He creates an immersive experience with basslines that will get you moving with each track. He only started producing a few years ago but has quickly gained a large following, including Martin Garrix, who has supported his tracks. Our favorite track by him is his latest release “Knee Deep.”
Hartshorn is a Happy Hardcore producer from Denver, Colorado. We sat down with him for a Who Are Ya?! last year where you can learn more about him. He just announced he will be playing Beyond Wonderland in Southern California and he just played the inaugural Bullseye festival at the end of 2023. Recently, he has also been opening for big names in the hard dance scene like Lady Faith and Deadly Guns. Green Velvet said 2024 is going to be the year of hard dance, and Hartshorn will be part of it.
Ekonovah is a Phoenix, Arizona native who has been taking his house sound international in the last year. He played a few shows during ADE in Amsterdam and has been playing shows all over the US. In addition to all those shows, he released 12 tracks in 2023 across multiple labels including Insomniac’s In Rotation imprint, Hau5trap, and Hexagon. Ekonovah will be coming to your city soon, and when he does you should go see him!
Dr. Ushuu is bringing the bass with his out-of-this-world brand of riddim. DJ Diesel, Skrillex, Samplifire, and Ivory have been rinsing out his latest track “Quasar.” He has tracks released on big labels of the bass scene like Disciple and Bassrush. He’s already played Tomorrowland, Rampage, Lost Lands, and Forbidden Kingdom, so he’ll probably be at the next festival you attend and you won’t want to miss his set!
Tsu Nami is making some of the best Future Bass we’ve heard in a while. She played the Circuit Grounds stage at EDC Las Vegas and supported Jai Wolf on his Blue Babu tour in 2023. San Holo has been a big supporter for years and has constantly featured her music on Bitbird Radio. She will be playing Beyond Wonderland in March, so if you’re attending, go check out her set!
Homemade Spaceship is making experimental bass with a twist in the bass capital, Denver, Colorado. He regularly includes instruments like guitar and flute in his tracks, and they are always space-themed. Moon Lvnding surely supports the space theme! He self-released his first album Ghost Ride The Spaceship in August of last year. Hop in his spaceship if you’re ready to get vibey.
Not much is known about French house artist Square Perception. They have caught the attention of AC Slater and have released a few EPs on his Night Bass record label. They are creating a new sound within the bass house genre, leaning more into the experimental side of it. This can be heard throughout their album MIND, released in August of 2023.
Usaybflow has been supported by the dubstep icon Excision. Maybe it’s because he performs in a banana suit or because he’s also a fellow Canadian making heavy dubstep. He performed at Lost Lands in 2021 and has opened for some of the biggest names in dubstep like Subtronics and Virtual Riot when they play in Canada. He just got his U.S. visa approved, so expect to see him on more lineups soon!
BLUPRNT is another Chicago-based house artist who is setting himself apart by combining tech and bass house into tracks that will get the dancefloor moving. Diplo, Dr. Fresh, Matroda, and DJ Susan have all been playing his tracks. He played Club Coast at North Coast in 2023 and will hopefully land on more festival lineups in 2024.
Lumasi is an experimental bass producer in Denver, Colorado. He combines wobbly basslines with more gentle sounds like chimes to create a hypnotizing vibe that completely immerses you in the sound. In 2023 he released an official remix of LSDREAM’s track “Follow The Vibe” and played Sound Haven alongside Lab Group, Truth, and Yheti. He will be supporting Liquid Stranger on a few dates of his upcoming Expansion Tour. We suspect a release of one of his original tracks on Wakaan is in his future.
Dustin Husain is a trance producer from Southern California. His tracks have been supported by trance legends like Ferry Corsten and Armin Van Buuren. 2023 was a big year for him, playing both EDC Las Vegas and Dreamstate. 2024 is already looking promising since he will be playing at Beyond Wonderland. Read more about him in our Who Are Ya?!
TRYPBOX are a house duo based in Los Angeles that formed in 2020. They have received support from Wuki, Don Diablo, Dr. Fresch, and AC Slater. They have also been featured on Space Yacht lineups and compilations. You can’t help but bounce around and smile when you listen to their music. Even though they make house music, they were able to remix Bandlez and Crankdat’s dubstep banger “Ground Shake” into a bouncy future house tune. We’re looking forward to more releases and show announcements from them in 2024.
Drew Dapps has slowly been taking over the minimal house scene. He is based out of San Diego and spends his free time skateboarding. We sat down with him for a Who Are Ya?! in 2021 and he has done so much since then! He crossed Space Yacht off his bucket list and has opened for Layton Giordani to ring in the new year. His new EP Word On The Street will be dropping on January 19, be sure to check it out.
BVRRN is a house DJ from Palm Springs, California whose specialty is Melodic Bass House. We’ve been big fans of him since 2021 when he made a guest mix for our Mothership Radio series. He recently played a Space Yacht show and at Splash House alongside Wax Motif, Vintage Culture, and LP Giobbi. His latest single “Lose Control” will make you do just that on the dancefloor, and we can’t get enough of it!
We are excited to see what is in store for all these artists over the next year, and we mean it when we say big things are coming! Be sure to check out their tracks and follow them on social media to stay up to date with everything they’ve got going on.
