With their melodic brand of dubstep-infused jams, Adventure Club has enjoyed a steep ascension since their 2009 debut. The duo first formed while attending high school in Montreal as a hardcore pop-punk band, but later discovered their passion was in electronic dance music. Catchy, big-drop remixes for “Crave You” by Flight Facilities and “Youth” by Foxes, plus a monster collab with Krewella, “Rise & Fall,” set the stage for the Canadian duo’s breakout. After their debut EP, Calling All Heroes, earned 10 million+ Spotify streams, the duo began to grace the stages at major festivals like EDC, Ultra, Coachella, Lollapalooza, and Bonnaroo. In December of 2016 the duo released their first full-length album, Red // Blue that features a masterful clashing of styles from the raging red of their bass-heavy bangers, and the blissful blue of their chillstep melodies.
