AXEN - Machine [Bass]

AXEN is back with a new release this week. Now signed to the formidable Circus Records, the Australian producer and DJ gifts us "Machine." There is nothing understated about this record, which explodes into life with powerful aplomb.

Dynamic, robo-inspired sampling and riffs are given weight by its booming bassline and stuttering drum edits. Explaining the idea behind "Machine," AXEN says: “In all of my tracks I like to create a theme and story to tie in with my ‘Droid Bass’ signature sound. Something that you can almost visualise the entirety of. For this track I wanted to tell a story about a robot coming to life and causing mayhem in a city. In the first drop of the track you can hear that, and later he saves the same city from another threat. You can hear that in the second drop; I made evident through the contrast from heavy/dark to melodic/happy.”
