The Los Angeles global bass maven links up with the UK emcee for a club-ready anthem on HARD Recs
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Bianca Oblivion is a beacon for groundbreaking club music. Joining forces with the highly respected UK emcee Redders, the pair make their debut on HARD Recs with the explosive bass anthem “Lavish.”
Indulging in the finer shades of what life has to offer, “Lavish” is a frenetic party-starter primed to set the club ablaze. Built around piercing synths, pounding drum lines, and thunderous percussion, the production is nothing short of colossal. Redders rides the booming beat with the smooth bravado, in a way that only a seasoned veteran could. The lyrics move from razor-sharp to addictive, making “Lavish” an instant anthem. Sinister laughter and sultry moans deepen the heart-racing excitement while the intense heaving breath work somehow amps up the intensity even further. Brain-bending yet dancing, futuristic yet instantly familiar, the track pushes the boundaries of club music in a manner that’s achieved solely by two artists of this caliber. From warehouse raves to festival stages, expect “Lavish” to dominate the bass scene all year long.
Explaining how the collaboration came together, Bianca Oblivion shares: “I constructed the song with space for a vocalist, but I needed someone who could spark the right kind of conversation with the beat, someone who was willing to challenge themselves and push their own boundaries—and I found that in Redders. I’ve always admired his work with Sam Binga, and with his help, we linked up in his studio in Bristol and it all came together.”
Los Angeles native Bianca Oblivion has been taking cues from grime, reggaeton, hip-hop, dubstep, hardcore, and pop music and fusing them into a bass-heavy, club-friendly sound. Her unique genre-fluid stance has landed her on Mixmag’s ‘Breakthrough DJs of the Year’ in 2023, and in Beatport's Next’s ‘Class of 2024.’ She is the founder of LA-based party collective Warp Mode (alongside Star Eyes and AK Sports), which has become a platform for femme/non-binary, queer, and POC artists. She is hot off her debut appearance at EDC Las Vegas and has upcoming shows at HARD Summer Music Festival, Outlook Festival, Bass Coast, All Points East, and ADE. She has also garnered radio support from across BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra and 6 Music with spins from Sarah Story, Tom Ravenscroft, Martha, DJ Target and Jamz Supernova. With all things considered, Bianca Oblivion is the real deal.
A Bristol legend, Redders is a staple in the UK underground as a deeply respected MC and lyrical madman. His iconic style has moved from garage to drum & bass, and reggae. His impressive discography boasts collaborations alongside legends like Sam Binga, Foreign Concept, DJ Hybrid, and Hyroglifics.
“Lavish” fuses pounding percussion with dizzying synths and anthemic vocals to create a next-level club banger.
