NEW SINGLE MARKS FOURTH RELEASE FROM RIOT TEN’S FORTHCOMING FULL-LENGTH ALBUM
Bass music trailblazer Riot Ten returns with “Threats”, a thunderous new single created in collaboration with rising dubstep phenom Versa. The track marks the fourth official release from Riot Ten’s forthcoming full-length album — following recent fan-favorite singles “bRuH” with TYNAN, “Bass Bop,” and “2 da Floor” with Deorro.
A relentless riddim weapon engineered for chaos, “Threats” delivers a mechanical barrage of razor-sharp synths, bone-rattling basslines, and Riot Ten’s signature high-voltage energy. Both artists go full throttle — no brakes, no filters — resulting in a track tailor-made for rail-breaking crowds and peak-time festival sets.
“Threats” arrives amid serious momentum for Riot Ten. Fresh off a 30+ city North American tour and the release of his 7-track “Feral” EP via Monstercat, the El Paso native continues to cement his place at the forefront of bass music. With multiple Top 10 iTunes singles, #1 Beatport records, and his viral anthem “Rail Breaker” nearing 20 million streams, Riot Ten’s reputation for explosive production and unrelenting live shows has made him a mainstay at Coachella, EDC Las Vegas, Lollapalooza, Lost Lands, Tomorrowland, and Rampage Belgium.
While details on the full album remain under wraps, the rollout so far promises a genre-blurring, high-octane body of work packed with heavyweight collaborations and mosh-worthy drops. “Threats” offers an unfiltered look at Riot Ten’s next chapter — a project that straddles the underground and the main stage with equal intensity.
Adding to a breakout year that's seen him emerge as a must-watch name in the underground, Versa continues to climb the ranks of the global bass scene. Known for his unrelenting sound design and visceral live sets, he’s bringing the energy to some of the scene’s biggest stages this spring and summer including Delirium Festival, Forbidden Kingdom, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and more.
With “Threats,” Riot Ten and Versa deliver a sonic gut punch — a masterclass in collaboration that previews the raw power and forward-thinking chaos of Riot Ten’s 2025 album.
QUOTE FROM RIOT TEN
"I've been a fan of Versa for a long time, so I was super excited to finally work together. After I sent the original idea over and he jumped in, I knew it was going to smash. Fast forward and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Multiple threats attacking!"
QUOTE FROM VERSA
"Riot Ten had sent me an intro idea to work around and we went back and forth for awhile exchanging ideas over email. The tune really came together pretty quickly after Riot Ten sent me some new sounds he made that paired really well with a pre-drop sample I had. The track really stemmed from the idea of making an “attack” of sound using what he sent and my own library of noise."
Born and raised in El Paso, TX, Riot Ten exploded into the world of dance music at the age of 22. Joining the Dim Mak Records family in 2017, with additional music out on Never Say Die, Deadbeats, Insomniac, and Rottun, Riot Ten blasted off with four #1 top 100 dubstep singles. His music has been supported around the world from the likes of DJ Snake, Zeds Dead, The Chainsmokers, Excision and many more. In 2017, Riot Ten’s single “Fuck It” with Sullivan King became a staple on The Chainsmokers “Memories Do Not Open” tour. This success ultimately paved the way for “Rail Breaker”, his global smash, to become one of the most successful dubstep songs of the decade. The single saw support from the biggest names in dance music for over 3 years and running. Following the release of “Rail Breaker”, Riot Ten dropped his debut EP with Dim Mak called “Hype Or Die: The Dead” in 2018, which recorded a top 10 debut on the iTunes’ “dance album” charts, a feat seldom seen by an artist in the genre. He recorded another top 10 debut on the iTunes charts in 2019 with his debut album “Hype Or Die: Nightmares”. In addition to the music, Riot Ten has recorded sold out tours, both domestically and internationally, for 3 years and counting. He has also made appearances at Lollapalooza, EDC Las Vegas, Coachella, Nocturnal Wonderland, Electric Zoo, EDC Mexico, Lost Lands, EDC Orlando, Global Dance Festival, Electric Forest, Bass Canyon, Imagine Music Festival, and more.
