Hailing from Montreal’s great white north, Canadian duo Adventure Club have exploded onto the scene thanks to their self-coined clubstep sound that, among other things, features dreamy female vocals, melodic toplines, and massive drops. With their twisted sense of humor backed by a solid crate of tunes, these producers still manage to remain down-to-earth, even as they carry the torch being one of the hottest acts in North America’s bass industry.
Having known each other since high school, the BFFs of Adventure Club spent the first 10 years of their friendship in a screamo band before going full-on electronic. Despite a nonexistent education in dance music production, the guys made a quick and (dare we say) painless transition over, using their music theory background to learn the basics of sound design and synth manipulation – unknowingly creating the foundation for their personal brand of dubstep.

The boys first caught our attention in 2012 with their Flight Facilities remix of “Crave You” but have since continued to keep us dancing with releases like “Rise and Fall” alongside Krewella and “Gold” with Yuna. Released back in fall 2014, the fellas’ latest release with Zak Waters, “Fade,” became an instant fan-favorite, shooting to iTunes’ Top 5 overnight. With each release more viral than the last, it’s easy to see how Adventure Club went from being “newcomers” to “seasoned” so quickly.
Marching into 2015 with a residency at Drai’s Las Vegas, les hommes d’Adventure Club may currently be hard at work in the studio finishing their long-awaited debut studio album, but we convinced them to step away from the synthesizers for several dates this spring. So, get ready for a feels trip when Adventure Club come steppin’ to a city near you!
