KN¿WHERE FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES PHASE TWO LINEUP, NEW LOCATION, AND FULL FESTIVAL EXPERIENCE UPGRADES

FEATURING WOOLI, GETTER, FUNTCASE, GORILLA T, DEATHPACT, CYCLOPS, & MORE

TAKING PLACE SEPTEMBER 12–14, 2025 AT RAVEN’S KNOLL, NORTH ALGONA WILBERFORCE, ONTARIO

KN¿WHERE Music Festival is turning up the volume on its debut year with the official announcement of its Phase Two lineup and a fully upgraded festival experience at a stunning new location. As the countdown to September 12–14 continues, the festival reveals its relocation to Raven’s Knoll in North Algona Wilberforce, Ontario—a move that promises deeper immersion, enhanced amenities, and a wilder ride into the heart of bass culture.

The Phase Two lineup takes the already massive roster to new heights. Joining previously announced acts like Ganja White Night, Gigantic NGHTMRE, Boogie T, and INZO are newly revealed powerhouses including Wooli, who blends melodic bass with earth-shattering drops, and Canadian dubstep visionary Distinct Motive. Special guest Dr. Fresch brings his electro-fueled dubstep and bass house energy, while Getter cranks up the heat at the official preparty. The cosmic bass stylings of GorillaT, a rare sunset B2B from melodic giants Jason Ross and MitiS, and the gritty, high-voltage pairing of Luci B2B DirtySnatcha add even more dimension. Rising talent Lumasi rounds out the additions, representing the future of bass music with his forward-thinking sound. Also joining the bill is Cyclops, known for his quirky visuals, immersive soundscapes, and playful, off-kilter approach to bass that turns every set into an experience. They join other Phase Two names including Deathpact, Funtcase, AHEE, The Resistance, Jaenga, VLCN, Dennett, SJ, and Usaybflow—solidifying KN¿WHERE as a fully immersive, one-of-a-kind journey.

The new venue introduces a festival environment where nature and bass meet in harmony. Towering trees provide full-day shade across the grounds, while natural trails wind through the forest, offering space to decompress between sets. Located significantly closer to Ottawa, Raven’s Knoll makes travel easier for fans, and opens the door for flexible stay options, whether under the stars or in the comfort of off-site accommodations nearby.

KN¿WHERE is expanding its offerings with the introduction of a Thursday pre-party, inviting attendees to kick off the celebration early. With the full weekend now stretching from Thursday through Sunday, there’s more space than ever for spontaneity, connection, and late-night energy. For early risers, mornings can begin with yoga or on the private beach with relaxation and mid-day swims—an ideal recharge before the music ramps up again.

Curated to inspire connection and curiosity, the festival blends sound, motion, and immersive moments into every corner of the weekend. Beyond the stages, attendees can enjoy wellness sessions and interactive art spaces. Camping options have also expanded, with new group camping packages that bring added flexibility and community focus.

With over 90 artists across three immersive stages, KN¿WHERE delivers a bass-fueled experience designed for those who crave adventure and authenticity. General Admission starts at $235.63 USD (approx. $320 CAD) and includes complimentary tent camping. VIP passes begin at $352.43 USD (approx. $480 CAD) and come with premium perks and amenities for an elevated festival experience. Flexible payment plans are also available.

KN¿WHERE unfolds as a realm where rhythm reshapes reality—where forest and frequency move as one, and every step deeper into the weekend sparks connection, creativity, and discovery. The call has been made. The journey begins now. Secure your spot at: https://knwherefest.com/

JASON ROSS, TRIVECTA AND LAST HEROES RELEASE ANTHEMIC COLLAB “ESCAPE” WITH LILLY AHLBERG

Melodic dance headliners Jason Ross, Trivecta and Last Heroes team up for their new euphoric mainstage collab “Escape”. The track evokes nostalgia from the golden era of EDM with modern production, colorful melodic ear candy and progressive house drops with an unexpected halftime switch before the track’s finale. Lilly Ahlberg accompanies the track singing lyrics about unforgotten feelings for a past love.

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.

Trivecta has been one of the fastest growing acts on the label and in the wider bass scene online and in the live circuit. Not only have his releases garnered support from artists like Illenium, Gryffin, Don Diablo and The Chainsmokers, but he’s collaborated with SLANDER, Seven Lions, Excision, Wooli, Kill The Noise, Jason Ross and even Scott Stapp from Creed. Just since his last album, he’s played direct support for Illenium at SoFi Stadium, Red Rocks, The Gorge, The LA Convention Center and Echostage and his first Ultra Music Festival, where he teased the new album tracks.

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.
