5/31: Megalodon + Tisoki @ Monarch Theatre
With millions of Soundcloud & YouTube plays, not to mention a string of Beatport Number 1’s, Megalodon is no stranger to the dubstep scene. Since 2008, the San Francisco based producer has seen ever-growing demand. No stranger to the spotlight, his music can often be found featured on some of the biggest music platforms around. Now signed to the world-leading Never Say Die records, few can deny the momentum Megalodon has gained in recent years. His technical mixing style, alongside his dedication to making forward-thinking tracks with a hint of Dubstep’s roots has helped to define him as a standout act, and definitely one to watch over the next year.
Playing alongside Megalodon is Tisoki. Hailing from across the pond, dubstep DJ and producer Tisoki has become more and more prominent in the EDM scene, thanks to his abundance of dancefloor bangers and headbanging anthems. Sampling from a selection of different styles, Tisoki’s range has led to creations that demonstrate his prowess in dubstep and other bass-heavy subgenres, while also indulging in other styles to form an overall eclectic sound.

5/31: Ghastly @ El Rey Theatre
David Lee Crow, who you more likely know as Ghastly, was born and raised on a goat farm down in Buckeye, Arizona. After struggling for a bit to make it in the industry, Ghastly met fellow local artist Mija at a show, where they discussed a potential collaboration. They wrote the song “Crank It” and Mija sent it to Skrillex, the founder of OWSLA, who then invited the pair to Burning Man with him, and signed Ghastly on his record label. From there, his career took off. After releasing a slew of both remixes and original music, he began booking festival gigs and climbing the charts. He has since relocated to Venice Beach, allowing him to launch his career as a DJ and producer, creating some of our favorite tunes.

6/1: Matt Lange at BFF @ Bar Smith
Los Angeles-based producer/composer/DJ Matt Lange delivers a darkly melodic breed of electronic music rooted in raw energy and emotion. Hand-selected by Deadmau5 as one of the most unique artists to sign to his label mau5trap; the lifelong musician now has coined his own genre, Langecore, and creates some of today’s most meticulously crafted sounds and sets. In today’s deeply saturated market of producers, it’s common to feel like we’re hearing carbon copies of one song after the next, but when Lange comes through the shuffle, it sparks a double take. Drawing inspiration from his younger days in a boys’ choir and time spent strumming the lead guitar in a metal band, you can feel his influences stem from much more than past producers. His music has soul, acute attention to detail, and quality of enchantingness that demands to be felt in a dark strobe-light club.

6/2: Carnage @ Talking Stick Resort
Born Diamante Blackmon, Carnage became a top-of-the-mind musician and producer back in 2012. Carnage began his music career in his bedroom, and after the release of a couple trending remixes and originals he took his talents to recording studios and stages all over the world. Tracks like “Loaded” with G-Eazy and his remix or Harwell’s “Spaceman” put him on the map and he solidified him as a reputable rapper, producer, and DJ. Today, Carnage can be found making crowds go wild at some of the most coveted stages in the world like Tomorrowland and EDC. He also frequents Las Vegas where he has a residency at the Marquee night and day club. Carnage is one of those acts that engages the crowd and relentlessly drops banger after banger-come prepared with energy because as his name suggests, a carnage set kills. He recently released Battered Bruised & Bloody, which has already garnered tens of millions of streams on Spotify alone.

Naill Dailly and Ben Geffin put the “Jack” in Jack Beats for they are the jack of all trades when it comes to producing.

Just recently, Jack Beats dropped an EP and tour announcement that is sure to shake things up. Vibrate is coming full force in the form of a US tour, song, and EP, bringing some fresh perspective to the house of bass.
