BLVK JVCK & VRG – NOW U KNOW

Black Jack is a duo gaining popularity with their sharp electronica.

They might be relatively niche in Japan, but they’re active on the global stage, providing tracks for major artists like Rihanna and Lil Wayne.

Their collaboration with Vee Ar Gee, a music producer known for drill, is this track, “NOW U KNOW.” As you’d expect from working with Vee Ar Gee, it’s packed with solid drill flavors.

The drop’s deep bass is outstanding too, so be sure to give it a listen.

Darren Styles’s “Pull Over,” which opens with a comical bass, is fascinating.

Darren Styles has performed at large festivals around the world many times and is widely known among EDM fans.

In Japan, many people discovered him through TikTok or when he came to perform.

His comical sound design blends comfortably with heavy beats, giving him a distinct color that sets him apart from other EDM artists.

UNUSSuperwet

Superwet – UNUS

When people think of hard-hitting EDM, many imagine either relentlessly intense four-on-the-floor beats or slow-tempo dubstep with blistering low-end.

UNUS falls into the latter category, built around a powerful sound born from a slower tempo.

From the build-up to the drop, it carries an exotic, melodic vibe, but once the drop hits, it instantly turns gritty and aggressive.

That contrast is fantastic, so definitely give it a listen.

Virtual Riot – Scorched Earth [Monstercat Release]

A new track has arrived, defined by its overwhelmingly destructive sound.

Virtual Riot’s song, released on Monstercat in October 2024, stands out with ferocious beats and basslines that evoke a scorched wasteland.

His hallmark intricate sound design shines, conjuring a futuristic, warlike atmosphere as if sonically depicting a world ravaged by fire and disaster.

It’s a must-listen for dubstep and brostep fans, already turning heads at live shows and festivals.

Highly recommended for EDM listeners craving intense energy or anyone seeking an extraordinary, out-of-the-ordinary musical experience.

Judgement DayHardwell & Sub Zero Project

Hardwell & Sub Zero Project – Judgement Day (Official Video)

Heavy, hard-hitting tracks are compelling because you can really feel their power.

With that in mind, let me introduce “Judgement Day.” It’s a song produced by the Dutch music producer Hardwell together with the duo Sub Zero Project.

I’d like you to pay attention not only to the sound but also to the lyrics.

In fact, the song sings about the arrival of Judgment Day, which is a bit scary.

Keeping that in mind as you listen will make the sound feel even more intense and impactful.
