RISING PRODUCER NEEK TO RELEASE A HARD TECHNO HEATER, "INSANE," VIA INSOMNIAC'S BASSCON RECORDS

The rising producer makes his Basscon debut with a heavy-hitting hardcore techno track.

California-based producer NEEK is set to make his debut on Basscon Records with his new hardcore techno single, “INSANE,” releasing July 26th.

Brimming with relentless energy, “INSANE” is a hard dance track forged from pure madness. The thrashing hardcore techno cut builds around manipulated organ synth

progressions, which help amplify the maddening appeal. A skull-cracking thump sits at the heart of the track, pushing things over the edge with distorted kicks, trippy vocal loops, shrieking synths, and blown-out low-end.

NEEK expresses his delight in cultivating an audience around the genre, saying, “I am very thankful for this opportunity. It’s an honor to be able to bring you guys this hard dance sound to America being that I grew up here all my life.”

Coming out of SoCal, NEEK is a rising producer in the hard dance realm with a focus on the hard techno sound. He’s carving out his own lane in the genre by leaning into a sinister, hard-hitting aesthetic. NEEK is slated to perform at Hard Dance NYC during the weekend of his new single on the label. His previous release “One Man Army” has amassed 1.7 million streams, and his music has reached 51.6 million views and 17.4 million combined creator reach on TikTok.

With “INSANE,” NEEK is carrying the torch of the current hard techno movement,

promising to deliver an electrifying experience that will make hard dance enthusiasts lose their minds.

Hailing from Southern California, DJ Neek is a formidable presence in the hard techno scene, known for his infectious beats and powerful productions. With viral hits like "One Man Army" and "Psycho," Neek has cemented his place as a driving force in the world of electronic music.
