Boreta & Aaron Penne Release Novel Generative Art + Music Project, “Rituals”

The Glitch Mob’s very own Justin Boreta has been involved in a variety of lauded musical projects – but none more important than his latest work as a member of ambient/psychedelic duo Superposition and co-founder of the label Formless. Superposition and Formless both have the same mission – to create music with the intention of healing. Each project dives deep into spiritual concepts with the hopes of creating a healthy escape from the day-to-day grind.

Now for his latest endeavor, Boreta is once again pioneering novel ideas in uncharted territory. He partnered with renowned generative artist Aaron Penne, whose code-based artworks have been auctioned at Sotheby’s and Christie’s, displayed at international galleries and museums, and launched on Art Blocks. Boreta and Aaron Penne’s new joint project – “Rituals” – combines generative music and generative artwork to create immersive, innovative one-of-a-kind NFT’s (Non Fungible Token) made entirely from code. After the original NFT release (aka “minting”) last fall, Boreta and Penne are now announcing the release of -“Rituals”- in standard streaming format.

The track listing is carefully constructed, following an arc to echo the original IRL listening experience back in September 2021 as best as possible. The beginning welcomes you into the world of Rituals, as it takes the listener deeper as if slowly dipping underwater, interbeing with deep drone songs on either side, then reemerges facing the bright horizon of infinite possibility.

Justin and Aaron shared a vision to explore concepts such as the infinite, mindfulness, and connectivity in a generative project that included not just art, but music as a central element. They partnered with Tero Parviainen from Counterpoint Studio to design the audio system. Using Tero’s code, Justin created music that is capable of creating infinite variations within the constraints provided for that particular token, making each NFT entirely unique. The music and art are crafted to infinitely evolve, giving collectors a subtly new experience upon each viewing. If left running, a single Ritual will continue generating music and art without repeating for ~ 9 million years!

Boreta, Aaron and Bright Moments are intent on giving back to organizations they are passionate about. So far, the Rituals project has made charitable donations to the Alan Watts Foundation, Stonewall Alliance Center for LGBTQ+, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women US, and the Surfrider Foundation.

AJ Salvatore Drops Hype Single “Vitamins” feat. Tokyo’s Revenge

Hailing from Long Island, the now Los Angeles-based Billboard charting artist AJ Salvatore has had a wild ride of a career. The young 25-year-old has had releases under Universal, Sony, gone on to chart at #12 on Billboard Dance Club Songs, #19 in the US Viral 50, #21 in the Global Viral 50, and released official remixes for Lil Yachty, Paris & Simo, Bleona, and Shaun Frank on Ultra Records. He’s also performed at EDC Orlando and opened for superstars such as Quix, Borgeous, Carnage, Ghastly, Alvin Risk, Dirty South, Shaun Frank, and SNBRN to name a few.

Choosing to keep a lot of his personal information to himself, 23 year old rapper TOKYO’S REVENGE appeared seemingly out of nowhere in 2018 with an aggressive, distorted style that reminded many listeners of the late XXXTentacion. His debut single“GOODMORNINGTOKYO!” was a viral hit, that when on to peak at #1 on the Billboard US Bubbling Under Hot 100 in 2019. The artist said in interviews he chose to stay anonymous so that listeners would experience his music without any outside associations based on where he was from or what scenes he was associated with. His anonymity didn’t keep listeners from playing his tracks on repeat, and soon his second single, “THOT!,” followed in the same viral footsteps of his first hit. In addition to two major singles, TOKYO’S REVENGE has gone on to release records with major artists such as The Kid Laroi and 24kGoldn.

Now, the two have come together for their hyped single “Vitamins” that is pure energy for the entire two minutes. AJ Salvatore’s production shines as he provides an energizing mix of trap and electronic beats, and pulsating baseline and TOKYO’S REVENGE fast spitting rap flows seamlessly overtop. There’s no doubt that these two make an excellent team and hopefully this is the start of many more collaborations between them both.

Here’s what AJ Salvatore had to say about it:

“Recording ‘Vitamins’ couldn’t have been easier. TOKYO came into the studio, loved the track, and wrote everything on the spot. The record is a nice hybrid of our sounds that I believe both of our fans will enjoy.”

Eptic Releases Awaited Debut Album, “The End of the World”

Eptic has been a producer’s producer for as long as we’ve been listening to him — since his earliest days on Never Say Die, to his couple singles on Monstercat, to his collaborations with DJ Snake or Marshmello. He always brings an extra edge to his productions.

Much like Space Laces who finally released his High Vaultage EP this year, fans have been clamoring for an Eptic album for a while after hearing what he can do with his numerous EPs like Flesh & BloodImmortalThe End, or Doom. Now, across ten songs including collaborations with Dillon Francis, MARAUDA, MUST DIE!, and HOL!, we get Eptic at his most pure.

There’s a strong argument to be made that a lot of the collaborations overshadow the solo productions, as some are saying on social media. But I think the reality is that the collaborations give a break in the pacing that make them stand out. The way the album is arranged — 3 solo tracks, then 2 collabs, another 3 solo tracks, then 2 final collabs — provides symmetry and clear sections of the project. It’s actually a brilliant way to craft a tracklist.

And as many people are saying that the collaborations overshadow the solo productions, we get some classic Eptic trap and bass house in tracks like “Run It,” “Drum Beats,” and “Ultimate Flex,” complete with his signature sonic tags.

That being said, “Wall Of Death” with MARAUDA (the only single from the album) and “Skill Check” with MUST DIE! are absolute bangers in their own right.

You can check out the full album below now via Eptic’s own Overlord Music.

Swedish House Mafia Debut Album ‘Paradise Again’ feat. The Weeknd, A$AP Rocky, Sting + more

Swedish House Mafia, the trio of Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Axwell, have just released their long awaited debut full length Paradise Again, just as they head back to the California desert for a landmark headlining performance with The Weeknd to close out this weekend’s Coachella Festival.

The group has been teasing their “debut” album for months, apparently erasing their previous “debut,” Until Now, from 2012, as their debut of record. Regardless, the expansive 17-track features an equally expansive array of features, including The Weeknd, A$AP Rocky, Ty Dolla $ign, and Sting.

Paradise Again came together in the wake of rediscovering their musical synergy on the band’s 2019 reunion tour, spending countless hours in the studio over the course of the subsequent years, exorcizing new sonic palettes, textures, and tones from an arsenal of analog synths. While the new batch of material is recognizably Swedish House Mafia, it also represents an ambitious broadening of their musical scope, as evidenced by the wide ranging roster of collaborators and guests

“There’s always new ground to break,” states Angello. “However, the biggest challenge was to do what nobody expected us to. We needed to find sounds in the studio we had never heard before and were excited about. It’s super inspiring for me to be in a band where we actually want to challenge ourselves. This is definitely one of the most exciting times for us, because we’re having fun like 15-year-olds again.”

Listen below and catch Swedish House Mafia on the polo fields of Coachella the next two Sundays with The Weeknd!

Luzi Tudor Drops Stunning, 3-Track ‘Unbound: Victory of Love’ EP [LISTEN]

Melodic house and techno DJ/producer Luzi Tudor emerges in 2022 with a gorgeous display of artistry, as heard with her latest body of work Unbound: Victory of Love — out now on Lane 8’s label, This Never Happened.

The tasteful, 3-track EP relishes in aesthetically pleasing melodics and atmospheres, balancing deep, euphoric sequences with unexpected moments that sharpen the senses. Each track is a journey, blending innovative synth work and instinctual grooves, with each concept evolving and growing more powerful as it progresses.

But what really makes Unbound: Victory of Love special is the way it makes us feel. It’s the kind of music that touches your heart and soul — and you radiate a more positive vibration because of it.

Luzi shares of the release:

The tracks on this EP are inspired by the complexities of many forms of love I’ve stepped into this past year. From self-love, to romantic, to platonic and the movement of these over time is something that’s brought me a lot of personal growth. The catharsis of expressing these emotions through my music has been really liberating. I hope that when listening to this EP, people are transported into a state of bliss and can be comforted that while change is the only constant, love never goes away it just changes its shape and form.

Along with the music, Luzi shares part of her personal journey:

I drastically changed the course of my life 8 years ago by getting into recovery from substances and mental health concerns. One of my counselors used to say, “If no one has told you they love you today, or you don’t love yourself today, I do.” And that helped me not only get through the toughest time in my life, but it filled that space just long enough until I was able to start loving myself and accepting other people’s love for me. I hope this EP does just that for people. It’s the way that I can now spread love to others.

Listen here and experience the vast soundscapes of Luzi Tudor’s “Shuffled Hearts,” “Evolve” and “Into Me See.”

Ghost In Real Life Shines with Self Made Banger “Metamorphosis” [LISTEN]

Ghost In Real Life is taking over in 2022 and we’re here for the “Metamorphosis.”

The LA-based producer / vocalist’s latest is all about going through phases and changes and fully embracing them. Considering Ghost In Real Life’s imminent rise in the bass music scene, the timing couldn’t be more appropriate.

“Metamorphosis” opens up with a melodic intro, layering GIRL’s signature, euphoric vocals with lush pads that set the scene for the track’s deep atmosphere. The energy builds from there, soon dropping into a colorful dubstep arrangement with playful sound design.

GIRL shares in her own words:

‘Metamorphosis’ is a dubstep song about going through changes in life and staying true to yourself and sounds like a collab between Subtronics and Peekaboo but with influences of Vaporwave music.

With releases on Subsidia Records, Rude Service and Phuture Collective, GIRL is making some serious waves and keeping us consistently engaged with new music. Also, shoutout to our friends at Electric Hawk for the premiere.

Lucille Croft Enters A New Era with Provocative ‘PATIENT X’ EP [LISTEN]

Lucille Croft isn’t afraid to reinvent herself — and the producer’s newly released, debut body of work does just that.

The 5-track EP introduces Patient X — one of what we’re expecting to be several personalities that distinguish Lucille’s ever-evolving project, showcasing a provocative, post-human concept based in excitement, romance, and rage.

From start to finish, Patient X packs in fierce energy border-lining on insanity, expertly switching up elements of cyberpunk mid-tempo, metal, bass, and pounding techno into a seamless and potentially deadly presentation.

Lucille Croft explains in her own words:

Essentially, Patient X is a fictional storyline and body of work I created about real experiences. It channels my love for games, fantasy, sci-fi, and channels my experiences as a woman in music, and me coming into my power.

Leading cuts include “Seduce / Destroy,” a collab with TMRRW called “Kill The Machine” featuring Bad/Love, and “Out For Blood.” However, we find the intro track “Post Human” and outro track “More Blood” to be just as satisfying. The EP also features consistent narration from Lucille, which personalizes the release even further.
