JASON ROSS AND DOTTER TEAM UP FOR DREAMY NEW COLLAB “WHERE IN HEAVEN”

Melodic dance producer Jason Ross returns to Ophelia with his new single “Where In Heaven”. Swedish singer and songwriter Dotter performs dance pop and radio friendly vocals over Jason Ross’ dreamy production featuring spacey pads, feel-good melodies and giant supersaw stack filled drops.

Jason Ross is one of dance music’s premier acts, while simultaneously being one of the scene’s more elusive figureheads. That’s not due to any fault of his productions, but rather, purely due to his versatility. Once a mainstay on the legendary Anjunabeats and a rising star of new age trance shepherded by Above & Beyond and co, Jason quickly outgrew the boundaries of four to the floor grooves, expanding into the less finite space of broken beats and pop vocals of melodic bass. A blossoming working relationship with melodic bass propagator Seven Lions led to genre defining tracks like Higher Love and Ocean, backed up by beautiful, elongated and gently weaving trance discography featuring the likes of Cairo, Atlas, and his 2019 Anjunabeats EP Rooms. The ability to weave the emotion and hypnosis of trance into the more commercial grit of melodic bass has made Jason’s recent catalog uniquely his own. His unique multi-genre tinged approach to production shines on genre-defining tracks like Shelter, his Blanke collab One More Day, his solo single Wild Ones, and his Gryffin collab After You, among others.

As the official record label of melodic dubstep leader Seven Lions, Ophelia Records is a label that promotes independent dance music across a wide range of genres. In just five years, Ophelia has become one of the hottest labels in electronic music thanks to its tight-knit community and ability to connect fans of melodic bass, dubstep, trance, psytrance, drum & bass, house and beyond. With over 200 catalog releases from acts such as SLANDER, Excision, Kill The Noise, MitiS, Jason Ross, NGHTMRE, Wooli, Trivecta, Blastoyz, Crystal Skies and Last Heroes, Ophelia has multiple #1 iTunes dance records and has been supported on the covers of mint and danceXL with additional playlisting on New Music Friday, Dance Rising, Bass Arcade and SiriusXM BPM. The label has also sold out showcases at Echostage, Avant Gardner and Red Rocks, as well as hosted festival stage takeovers at Electric Zoo, Miami Music Week, Nocturnal Wonderland and more.

D-EDGE RIO CELEBRATES 1 YEAR AND ESTABLISHES ITSELF AS ONE OF LATIN AMERICA'S LEADING CLUBS

With a history spanning over two decades in the electronic music scene, D-Edge, originally based in São Paulo, brought its iconic brand to Rio de Janeiro. Located in the Port Zone, in a retrofitted early 20th-century building on the Olympic Boulevard, the cultural complex led by visionary DJ and entrepreneur Renato Ratier blends music, art, fashion, design, and gastronomy across four floors of pure innovation.

Art, Music, and Innovation: The Soul of D-Edge Rio

With a prime location and a modern, laid-back structure, D-Edge Rio has already established itself as a stage for major names in global electronic music, including Charlotte De Witte, Pete Tong, Traumer, Gerd Janson, Gui Boratto, Âme Live, DJ Tennis, and, of course, Ratier himself. In addition to renowned artists, the club also provides a platform for local talent and emerging DJs, reaffirming its commitment to revitalizing the scene.

More Than Music: A Complete Cultural Experience

Since its inauguration in November 2023, D-Edge Rio has stood out for offering more than dance floors. Within its 2,500 square meters, the Rio-based club has become a cultural hub.

At the heart of the venue is Cosmos, a contemporary art gallery showcasing artistic installations, paintings, sculptures, and photographs that ignite visitors' creativity. Meanwhile, the Ratier Store combines urban fashion and music, featuring exclusive pieces and a special selection of vinyl records.

Later this year, a contemporary industrial-style restaurant is set to open, further expanding the space's cultural offerings.

The Main Floor: A Showcase of Technology and Sensations

The centerpiece of D-Edge Rio is its main dance floor, located on the fourth floor and designed by renowned architect Muti Randolph, who also designed the São Paulo venue. By combining sound, lighting, and ambiance, the dance floor elevates the audience's experience to a whole new level.

The exclusive sound system, developed in partnership with KW Audio, is considered one of the most sophisticated in the world. For the curious, there's even a secret VIP booth for a more intimate experience with the DJs.

Sunsets and the Guanabara Bay View

The rooftop of D-Edge Rio is a spectacle on its own. Boasting breathtaking views of Guanabara Bay, the space transforms into an open-air dance floor during sunset events, creating unforgettable moments for attendees.
