Though one of our Sun City Music Festival acts is from England and the other based out of Montréal, there are two things Adventure Club and Eats Everything have in common: they both love bass and they both had break out success in 2011.
Adventure Club
We love Québécois production duo Adventure Club‘s knack for bass music. Though the duo originally formed while as a hardcore pop-punk band, they later moved onto the sounds of dubstep, and we’re so glad they did. Tracks like their remix of Brand New’s “Daisy” put the duo on the map and gave them heavy exposure on popular music site, The Hype Machine.
Praised for their melodic song structures and most notoriously, their love of free music, the boys of Adventure Club have undoubtedly established a devoted following since their initial inception, just shy of two years. Whether they perform live, or in a mix like their recent Superheros Anonymous Volume 2, their sound floats between the avenues of electro house, dubstep, drumstep, and trap, all the while, keeping their smooth melodic Clubstep for the masses. They also manage to keep a comedic approach to it all, never taking themselves too seriously. You can catch Adventure Club when they make their way to Sun City Music Festival this coming Labor Day. Tickets are available now!
Eats Everything
Eats Everything is leading the pack of talented producers coming from England’s bass central, Bristol. Born Dan Pearce, the gent picked up DJing before he hit his teens, but by the time he was 16, he started playing at the clubs he frequented in his home town. As a producer, he began experimenting with techniques a little over a decade ago, but it wasn’t until 2009 before he could confidently say, “Yeah, I know what I’m doing.”
The world can’t get enough of Eats Everything tracks. They have an infectious bounce that keeps everyone moving on the dance floor, but still have relaxed and laid back vibes. The cool thing about Eats Everything is that he draws knowledge of the various genres and periods of dance music, ranging from early ’90s house to old-school jungle and speed garage. This is evident by his debut release, “Entrance Song” on Catz N Dogz’s Pets Recordings imprint, which was chosen by Pete Tong as one of the biggest tunes of 2011. We love how catchy his bass lines are all while maintaining his personality with tricked out synths and funny yet odd samples.
With his rise to fame in just two short years, he is sitting comfortably between the underground and mainstream realms of dance music, and he wouldn’t have it any other way. “It’s taken me a long time to get where I am,” he says. Currently, Eats Everything is working with dirtybird label boss Justin Martin on a collaborative album due out in 2014. You can wait until then to hear the British talent, or you can come join us at Sun City Music Festival and get jackin’ on the dance floor. Grab your tickets today!
