The wait is over for techno enthusiasts as Adam Beyer and Eli Brown debut their first collaborative project, the ‘Overdose of Bass’ EP. Released on November 22nd under Beyer’s iconic Drumcode label, this two-track EP is a perfect blend of their distinct artistic approaches, making waves in the electronic music community.
This collaboration gained traction after their first B2B performance at Lisbon’s Brunch Electronik in September, amplifying fans’ anticipation. Eli Brown, who previously made headlines with his January hit ‘When I Push’ alongside Layton Giordani and OFFAIAH, makes a triumphant return to Drumcode, marking another high point in his impressive trajectory.
‘Overdose of Bass’ The title track is an auditory journey of sharp snares and a pulsating, breaksy beat. Layered with processed spoken-word vocals, the track balances between sensuality and mechanical precision, culminating in hypnotic buildups featuring eerie siren effects.
‘Living in the Moment’ This track juxtaposes an urgent techno rhythm with a nostalgic bassline reminiscent of Giorgio Moroder. Uplifting melodies and ethereal female vocals heighten its cinematic breakdown, offering a euphoric peak-time energy.
Adam Beyer, the Swedish techno veteran and Drumcode founder, continues to redefine the genre with his boundary-pushing projects. His recent solo works like the EP ‘Don’t Go’ and collaborations with icons like Vintage Culture underline his versatile artistry. His innovative integration of world music samples and melodic techno keeps his sound dynamic and unpredictable.
Meanwhile, Eli Brown, a torchbearer of modern techno, has risen rapidly since his 2016 breakout. Known for his dark, emotive soundscapes and kinetic stage energy, he’s become a global sensation. His landmark Rockefeller Center performance this year further solidified his legacy as a genre trailblazer.
‘Overdose of Bass’ EP is available now on Drumcode. Immerse yourself in this electrifying release and witness the evolution of techno crafted by two of the industry’s finest.
