BASSTRIPPER DROPS THROTTLING CROWD PLEASER ‘TIME TO GO’

Following a huge moment performing at Rampage this summer, Belgian drum and bass don Basstripper officially releases his epic crowd favourite 'Time To Go' which has already been rattling sound systems worldwide this year.

'Time To Go' has become a staple in Basstripper's sets and one that showcases his signature blend of unique sound and powerful bass. It has picked up significant support and is the latest in a long line of tunes that have made him a contemporary bass tastemaker including the likes of his mega hit ‘In The City’ which went viral last summer. 

Since then, Basstripper has supported Bou and B-Live on their Australian tour in November last year, remixed Netsky’s ‘Hell in High Heels’ at the end of 2023 and dropped his remix of Friction’s ‘Supersonic’ in January. Only continuing to add to his catalogue of in demand face melters, his DNB Allstars release ‘Hazmat / Deserted’ is continuing to do the rounds on the DJ circuit.

Making for a fresh and lively sound with drilling bass lines and crisp snares over tight drum programming, ‘Time To Go’ is the ultimate definition of Basstripper. Powerful breaks and screwy synths energise the track and lead to maximum destruction on the floor while the edgy vocals are the perfect finishing touch.

Continuing to lead from the front with this latest track, Basstripper already has much more in the pipeline and is only just getting started.

FRENCH DUO SQWAD DROPS A JUMPY SUMMERTIME ANTHEM, "LOOKING AT ME" VIA INSOMNIAC'S IN / ROTATION IMPRINT

The French production pair offers up their new UK garage-driven single on Insomniac’s offshoot imprint.

French-born production duo SQWAD returns to IN / ROTATION with their latest appearance arriving in the form of their UK-leaning single “Looking At Me,” releasing on September 3rd.

“Looking At Me” embodies the infectious and feel-good essence of UK garage at its finest, serving as an exuberant anthem for the summer season. Radiant vocals depict the sensation of being caught off guard by a piercing glance, which are then chopped

and looped above a foundation of warm synth oscillations and buoyant basslines. Hollow percussive hits and shuffling drums keep the track grounded, with sheeny, euphoric chords adding a touch of brightness to the sleek breakdown.

Setting the scene for their latest creation, SQWAD puts it simply: "With the summer sun blazing and the beats pumping, everyone is “Looking at Me’ as I own the dancefloor."

Drawing from a diverse set of musical influences including disco, tech house, French touch, techno, and bassline, among others, SQWAD has spent close to a decade mobbing around all manners of house music. They share a longstanding history with Insomniac’s IN / ROTATION imprint with a healthy run of appearances stretching back to 2020. They most notably touched down on the label with their ‘Your Soul’ EP in 2022, which followed a string of singles, earning radio support from Oliver Heldens, Afrojack, Tchami, Richard Vission, Zeds Dead, and Tomo Hirata. Additionally, they’ve been commissioned for remixes by Malaa, Destructo, Jauz, Zeds Dead, and Habstrakt.

With “Looking At Me,” SQWAD delivers a playful track perfectly suited for dancefloors and sunlit gatherings alike.

SQWAD is an electronic music duo formed by Etienne & Antoine. They offer an innovative House Music at the crossroads between House, Tech-House, and Techno. Their influences go from Hip Hop and Disco to Uk early 2000's Electronic Music and French Touch, giving their sound a unique SQWAD vibe.

The two french-born producers have released tracks on several high end labels : DJ Snake's Premiere Classe, Diplo's Mad Decent, AC Slater's Nght Bass Records as well as Tchami's Confession or Monstercat.

They also did remixes for flagship artists of the Dance Music scene like Malaa, Destructo, Jauz, Zeds Dead and Habstrakt.

During the last couple of years they got support from legends such as The Chainsmokers, David Guetta, Lost frequencies, Tiesto, Don Diablo or DJ Snake amongst many others, which has made them receive the « Revelation of the Year 2019 » award by the famous DJ MAG.
