“Switch”: Nicky Bender Brings Innovation and Groove to His Unique Sound
Dallas-based Nicky Bender, emerging from his Chicago roots, is making waves in the electronic music scene with his latest track, “Switch”. Released under Mustache Crew Records, the song exemplifies his dynamic approach to house music, blending subgenres to create a fresh, unforgettable sound.
“Switch” is a groovy bass house track with a distinct tech house edge. According to Bender, the song’s unique vibe comes from a mix of inspirations, including genre-defying trends in modern house music. Key influences for the song include artists like Matroda, Chris Lake, Green Velvet, and Habstrakt, reflecting a fusion of styles that elevate the track beyond conventional boundaries.
The heart of “Switch” lies in its pulsating bassline and bright melodic elements, delivering a dynamic experience that’s both uplifting and infectious. Bender’s creative process involved meticulous sound design, drawing inspiration from the stutter sound pioneered by Ship Wrek, a duo he admires. This attention to detail shines in the drop, where the stuttering rhythm builds into an electrifying breakdown.
Creating “Switch” wasn’t without challenges. Finding the perfect vocal sample was a journey in itself. Bender stumbled upon the ideal sample while exploring SoundCloud, aligning seamlessly with the track’s overall groove. The vocals lend an irresistibly bouncy and catchy quality, ensuring the track stays with listeners long after the first play.
Despite being a solo endeavor, “Switch” encapsulates a collective energy, urging listeners and creators alike to step beyond traditional structures in house music. “Take a chance on yourself,” Bender emphasizes, encouraging others to defy conventions and embrace bold, multi-genre explorations.
Already a staple of the Dallas nightlife scene, Bender has his sights set on the East Coast, aiming to play in the Tri-Cities and beyond. Additionally, fans can look forward to a three-track EP set to release this fall, promising more of his genre-bending sounds.
Nicky Bender’s message to his fans is one of empowerment and perseverance: “Believe in yourself, defy all odds, and it’s never too late to chase your dreams.” With tracks like “Switch”, he’s not just sharing music but inspiring a movement within the electronic music community.
