Stockholm’s soft-focus alchemist returns, and this time, he hits straight for the heart. Kasbo unveils “All This Time,” an aching, radiant single. Moreover, the release launches his first chapter with Lane 8’s This Never Happened, now streaming on all major platforms.
From the first breath, the song favors feeling over force, and texture over spectacle. Warm synths bloom slowly, then drums tiptoe forward like distant headlights. Meanwhile, melodies stretch and shimmer, tracing memories you forgot you carried. Kasbo shapes every second with restraint, allowing silence to speak loudly. Consequently, the result feels intimate, tender, and quietly devastating.
The accompanying visuals mirror Stockholm’s streets, soft skies, and lived-in corners. They frame Kasbo not as a spectacle, but as a storyteller. Fans receive a closer, more personal window into his world. It feels human, grounded, and refreshingly unfiltered. This chapter trades flash for feeling, and it wins.
However, this is not a retreat but a recalibration. After years of touring, Kasbo returned home and rediscovered joy through DJing and shared listening. That stillness sparked curiosity and sharpened his instincts. Therefore, euphoric minimalism and hypnotic trip-hop seep naturally into his palette. “All This Time” captures that shift with clarity and confidence. Additionally, the partnership with This Never Happened feels beautifully inevitable.
Lane 8’s label champions presence, connection, and phones-down immersion on the dancefloor. This Never Happened was inspired by the vision of a return to the true principles of dance music culture – people, music, connection, and the magic that exists between them. The concept is very simple: no recording, no filming. If you weren’t there, This Never Happened. As a result, this release lands like a promise kept.
“All This Time” plays like a late-night drive with the windows cracked. It belongs in dim clubs, quiet kitchens, and long walks home. Press play, then let the song breathe beside you. Stream it now and experience the moment fully. Because with Kasbo and This Never Happened, if you weren’t there, it never happened.

Last year, the mysterious riddim collective known as The Resistance released their debut EP EVIL EMPIRE. Now, exactly one year later, they’ve returned with an 11-track remix compilation, EVIL EMPIRE (THE REMIXES) featuring some of riddim and dubstep’s top producers. With the original EP already regarded as one of the defining riddim releases of the past year, each reimagined track brings fresh and exciting energy to the project.
The Resistance consists of nine anonymous, distinct creative voices united under a shared vision that blends heavy bass with dystopian themes to create immersive live experiences. Having gained attention for their theatrical stage presence, the group maintains anonymity through sinister masks and a Star Wars-inspired aesthetic.
The original EP featured four tracks, but the remix project comprises multiple reimaginings of each one. The breakout title track, “EVIL EMPIRE,” has been remixed by both FuntCase and OG Nixin. “BATTLE OF CRAIT” receives three remixes from Automhate, Mvrda, and JUB, while “T-70” also gets three new versions from Chibs, Muerte, and Ophion. Closing out the release are three remixes of “LASER BRAIN” by Aweminus, ONAra, and Izzy Vadim. From laser-focused riddim to experimental production, each track delivers a unique flip that takes the original EP into new sonic territory.
This compilation arrives just ahead of The Resistance’s new audiovisual experience, SHADOWCELL, set to premiere in early March at RAMPAGE 2026, Europe’s largest bass music festival. Sharing the stage with hard-hitting acts like Sub Focus, Infekt, and Wooli B2B Crankdat, their performance is expected to blend immersive world-building, cinematic storytelling, and devastating sonics. With the release of this remix compilation alongside the debut of SHADOWCELL, 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for The Resistance.
After dropping his highly anticipated fan favorite track “Dolori,” the first single from his upcoming studio album Moonglade Park, Of The Trees is back with another undeniably bass-forward hit, “Look Into My Eyes.” Collaborating with Atlanta’s iconic hip hop duo EARTHGANG, the track showcases a different side of Of The Trees’ production compared to “Dolori,” highlighting the range of sounds and vibes listeners can expect across the upcoming album.
“It’s been a lot of fun working with Of The Trees on this record,” said EARTHGANG. “This record is one we think is an example of true collaboration. We both brought something from our worlds that created something fresh that we believe both of our fans will enjoy.”
First debuting in Atlanta and later featured in Of The Trees’ 2025 Electric Forest headline set, “Look Into My Eyes” pushes the boundaries of both hip-hop and electronic music, showcasing the forward-thinking creativity of each artist within their respective genres. The track is a genre-defying fusion of cinematic bass, immersive low-end sound design, and EARTHGANG’s intentional, hypnotic lyricism. The result is a dancefloor-ready yet introspective cut, driven by cinematic bass and a moody, atmospheric vibe.
Similar to the release of his first single, “Dolori,” Of The Trees and EARTHGANG have also dropped a music video alongside “Look Into My Eyes.” Filmed in Fairplay, Colorado, the video captures the genuine creative chemistry between the artists while showcasing the natural environment that inspired the album. Watch the newly released music video below.

Based in Denver and originally from Maine, Of The Trees has been captivating audiences with his signature blend of dubstep and hip hop, pairing expansive synth textures and layered chords with hard-hitting 808s. In 2016, he released two full studio albums, debuting Dream Atlas in February, followed by Duat later that July.
Over the past decade, he has collaborated with major artists like John Summit and Curren$y, amassed millions of streams across tracks such as “Spanish Moss,” “Windhorse,” and “Everglade March,” returned to Red Rocks for a second consecutive year this past November, and launched his two day immersive event Camp Alderwild, which blends music, nature, and community. These milestones marked the start of his 30+ date national bus tour, featuring support from artists like Opiuo, Detox Unit, and EAZYBAKED at iconic venues including The Salt Shed, The Hollywood Palladium, BayCare Sound, and Brooklyn Paramount. With most dates already selling out, fans are encouraged to secure tickets soon to catch the remainder of the tour at www.ofthetreesmusic.com/tour.
Now, nearly a decade after his previous studio albums, Of The Trees returns with Moonglade Park, a project that reflects on environmental preservation, memory, imagination, and creation within a world driven by noise, speed, and automation. Inspired by full album listening experiences, he took the immersion a step further by wiping his social presence and beginning the curation of the Moonglade Park universe through a companion website, www.moongladepark.com. The site acts as a digital storyteller, mapping fan experiences, tour stops, and music video releases while embracing a late 1990s retro national park aesthetic. With two releases already out, the album is shaping up to embody everything Of The Trees stands for: intentional music rooted in stillness, growth, and transformation.
Hailing from Atlanta, EARTHGANG is a Grammy-nominated, genre-bending hip hop duo known for their boundary-pushing sound and philosophical lyricism. After signing to Dreamville in 2017, the duo carved out a distinct lane as leading voices in progressive hip hop, blending Southern hip hop influences with a forward-thinking creative vision.
With hundreds of millions of global streams, EARTHGANG has collaborated with major artists including J. Cole, Young Thug, Curren$y, Wiz Khalifa, and CeeLo Green. Their cultural impact continues to grow, earning praise from outlets such as Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Interview Magazine, NME, Highsnobiety, and VICE for their immersive storytelling and thoughtful reflections on modern culture. Their work often addresses timely issues, including artificial intelligence, environmental justice, mental health, and spirituality.
Beyond their music, EARTHGANG founded The EARTHGANG Foundation, a nonprofit focused on local empowerment initiatives and climate advocacy aimed at raising awareness and action around environmental injustice. In recognition of these efforts, the duo was honored at the White House by Vice President Kamala Harris and awarded their own EARTHGANG Day on April 27 by the city of Atlanta.
After a bold artistic reset and full creative reintroduction, Grabbitz launches his next era with “Blood On My Hands.” This raw, bass-driven single debuts 1/30 via Breakaway Projects/Sony. Marking his first release following a complete visual and sonic reboot, “Blood On My Hands” signals a decisive return to the sound that originally built Grabbitz’s reputation as one of bass music’s most technically gifted producers.
After several years exploring vocal-forward and rock-influenced territory, the new record re-centers the project. Focused on heavy low-end, intricate sound design, and emotionally charged production—the release follows a dramatic rebrand at the top of 2026: a wiped social presence, new visual identity, and symbolic haircut representing a full-circle moment for the producer. Grabbitz shares,
“A decade ago, there was a moment where bass music inspired me so profoundly that I dropped everything to chase it.Now, after all the places it has taken me, that moment happened again. Also, the song feels like a Jackson Pollock painting.“
Known as both a producer and a powerful vocalist, Grabbitz stands apart from the generic bass-music scene. His immersive audiovisual performances move seamlessly between catharsis and chaos. From the world’s largest festival stages to a growing run of sold-out headline shows, his live presence has become something audiences don’t just hear, but feel.
Sonically, “Blood On My Hands” balances chaos and control. It incorporates distorted bass textures, fractured rhythms, and cinematic tension. Everything collides into a track that feels both visceral and meticulously constructed. It’s a statement piece: not a crossover, not a feature vehicle, but a record built announcing exactly where Grabbitz is headed next.
The single arrives during a high-momentum stretch of live dates and major festival appearances. In the coming months, more releases tied to the new era can be expected. Be among the first to experience the momentum at launch, and pre-save “Blood On My Hands” now.
Originally from Connecticut and now based in Austin, TX, Jensen Truly is an emerging electronic artist known for immersive soundscapes and emotionally driven performances. After spending part of his childhood in Ajijic, Mexico, he developed an early appreciation for music and culture, influenced by his father’s lifelong involvement in the industry. While music was always present, it was not until high school in Austin that Jensen found his creative direction, turning to DJing as an emotional outlet and gradually building a name for himself through underground house parties.
Following high school, Jensen traveled and volunteered abroad, working on farms in Australia and conducting marine research in Thailand, where a pivotal set at the Full Moon Party cemented his decision to pursue music professionally. After the loss of his mother in 2023, Jensen committed fully to refining his craft through music production studies at Berklee College of Music and Austin Community College. Now, with his debut editorial release “Inconclusive,” Jensen steps into a new chapter of his artistry, sharing a more personal and intentional side of his sound.
“I started ‘Inconclusive’ two years ago and forgot about it until one night I was digging through old demos and found the first version,” said Jensen Truly. “It was totally different back then, but the vocals and keys pulled me back in and pushed me to finally finish it.”
“Inconclusive” is an emotional yet dancefloor-ready track that blends elements of funky house, stutter house, and old school house. The single balances groove-driven rhythms with subtle emotional depth, creating a sound that feels both personal and built for late-night dance floors. It reflects Jensen Truly’s ability as an artist to turn introspection into movement.
If you like the energy of Jensen Truly’s “Inconclusive,” be sure to explore more of his music at the link below. You can also catch Jensen live at his upcoming shows, including his personal project The Furnace in Austin on February 6, opening for Angrybaby at The Marc in San Marcos on February 13, and his festival debut at Big Bond Music Festival on March 27, a boutique camping electronic music event in the heart of the West Texas desert.
Burko, a San Diego-based producer and DJ, has been climbing the ranks in the Southern California music scene and clearing out a bold new trail with his dark, cinematic sound. Building on that momentum, Burko unveils his latest two-track EP, Somnus. “The EP sits in my signature space: dark indie dance with a melodic techno edge,” he says.
While many producers draw inspiration from the studio environment, Burko looked inward for this project. According to the artist, Somnus is a body of work born from the space between consciousness and dream. “Each track idea arrived to me in my sleep as if transmitted through the subconscious,” Burko shares.
“Rather than being built solely in the studio, these songs carry the surreal weight of music born from the dream state. Waking up from the dream and remembering the melodies, I turned each idea into the songs on this EP.” This ethereal origin is reflected in the EP’s sound design. Characterized by heavy analog synths and brooding rhythms, Somnus stays true to Burko’s roots.

To support the release of Somnus, Burko has debuted a new press shoot that visually echoes the EP’s subconscious themes. By using distorted reflections to mirror the project’s origins, the imagery serves as a portal into the “dreaming music” concept.
Somnus isn’t just a collection of new tracks; it marks a significant pivot toward a more refined and intentional sound. “This release marks a new chapter for me, fusing raw inspiration with a refined and distinctive sound that continues to earn support from global names like Deadmau5, Lane 8, David Guetta, Yotto, and Above & Beyond,” Burko affirms.
With Somnus, Burko does more than just release new music; he invites listeners into the deepest corners of his creative psyche. By capturing the fleeting melodies of his subconscious and grounding them in his trademark dark, indie dance production, he further establishes himself as a singular voice in the dance music landscape. As he bridges the gap between the dream world and the dance floor, one thing is certain: Burko’s ascent is no longer just a Southern California story, but a bold new chapter in the dance music scene.

Having spent the last decade carving out their own space within the industry, Zeds Dead are on a roll that seemingly cannot be stopped. They recently sold out their 12th annual Deadrocks event at Colorado’s most iconic venue, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, showcasing their dominance in the industry and unwavering fanbase.
ZEDS DEAD
With a career dating back to 2009, Zeds Dead released their debut album Northern Lights in 2016, and immediately fans knew they were curating something special. That same year, they launched their Deadbeats label, which continues to stand as one of the leading independent labels in dance music. With over 300 releases featuring artists such as REZZ, Subtronics, GRiZ, Levity, and Zeds Dead themselves, it’s clear they remain among the strongest tastemakers in the game right now.

“CID and I have been crossing paths creatively for more than a decade now,” said Kaskade, “and every time we come back together it feels familiar in the best way. I’ve been trying to work with Anabel Englund for approximately forever, but just couldn’t find the right song. Then ‘Vision Blurred’ came along and it all finally came together.”
“This is a song that’s made to be played loud and I dare anyone NOT to sing along. Over the past few months, fans have been coming up to me after shows, humming the song and asking for the ID. It’s been amazing to see this type of familiarity with ‘Vision Blurred’ even before it’s out, it’s already in the atmosphere. Now all we have to do now is release it.”
This track, “Vision Blurred,” perfectly encapsulates the trio’s shared vision of creating timeless classics that are sure to captivate audiences across festival stages, large-scale venues, and underground club spaces. It features an irresistible beat layered with Anabel Englund’s melodic vocals.
”Really excited to make my debut on Experts Only,” said CID. “Getting John’s stamp of approval on this one means a lot. With Kaskade, it feels like a full-circle moment working together on a new track after so many years. And the same goes for Anabel. Getting back in the studio with her and writing this felt effortless. I feel like we each brought our signature sounds and strengths to the table, and together we created something truly special.”
KASKADE
Kaskade has solidified himself as a household name in electronic music with an iconic career that has been thriving since the late 1990s. An eight-time GRAMMY Award nominee and winner of Best Male Artist at the iHeartRadio EDM Awards, he has played a pivotal role in bringing electronic music into the mainstream. That influence has recently extended into the world of sports entertainment.
In 2024, Kaskade made history as the first-ever in-game DJ, performing for an audience of more than 123.4 million viewers. He continued this momentum with appearances at the X Games in Ventura, California, a post-Phillies game set in July, and a performance at a LIV Golf tournament. That same year, he also became the first-ever starting grid DJ at a Formula 1 race in Miami.
Beyond these milestones, Kaskade made a surprise appearance at Coachella in 2024 alongside John Summit and Alison Wonderland, followed by a three-hour B2B set with Idris Elba in 2025. His ability to transcend genres has established him not only as an icon within electronic music but also as a crossover force with a broader audience, collaborating with artists such as Jennifer Lopez, Alicia Keys, Meghan Trainor, and Gwen Stefani. As he continues to push boundaries, it’s hard not to wonder what groundbreaking move he’ll make next.
Widely regarded as one of the best producers in the game, CID has gained recognition from the likes of John Summit, Fisher, Dom Dolla, Diplo, and many more. The GRAMMY Award–winning DJ, producer, and owner of the Night Service Only label consistently delivers club-ready tracks that have solidified him as one of the highest-selling artists on Beatport. Inspired by DJs mixing at his dad’s Spanish restaurant, CID has been mixing since he was 11, and a few years later landed an internship at a professional studio. His dedication to the craft, paired with his ear for career-defining records, has helped CID to become a well-respected staple of the house music community.

Drawing back to the theme that if you’re being authentic, authenticity will reflect.“- INZO
