Today, we’re clashing the sounds of two Sun City Music Festival artists — one that’s members are plucked from all over the place, and the other imported from Israel and then from across the Atlantic. Though their styles are completely different, we love the thought of blending the sounds of both Droog and Borgore. But we think the fans from both sides can agree that these two artists, are masters in creating their unique sound. And you’ll be able to see that sound in action come August 31st and September 1st.

Droog
Based out of L.A., Droog, meaning “friend,” first started gaining recognition for their respected weekly at the world-famous Avalon Hollywood. The party was legendary for hosting some of the biggest international house and techno talents. From 2007 to 2011, Droog had held down a residency at Avalon rooting themselves as a trusted source for truly underground talents.
Now, as a production trio, the boys have begun to hone in on their style, making excursions into mood-enhancing, spellbinding tech house loaded with trippy motifs, fat synths, and lyrics/vocals that might confuse and intrigue you. This is made evident by their Westbound EP released back in 2011. The track “Unhinged” is their signature spooky formula and wrapping it around an uptempo house jack and haunting, wobbly-pitched vocal. The effect on the lyric pulling me… closer… is so eerily wonderful, sitting on the corner of sensual and creepy. It’s one of our favorites.
Today, you can find the collective producing original and remixed material for revered labels all around the world. You can get on the action and see our droogs as Droog performs at this year’s Sun City Music Festival. Go in stores or online to grab your tickets today!
Borgore
Borgore is one of the most controversially loved artists in dance music right now. If not for his social media antics, than definitely for his memorable, catchy, and sometimes questionable lyrics. Early tracks like “Icecream” and “Love” were underground successes and helped catapult him to the world-renowned fame he’s sitting at today. As a producer he creates a unique sounds in bass and bass accessories, calling it “Gorestep” and incorporating triplet drum patterns and heavy metal influences, no doubt an influence from his days in the band Shabira. Perhaps our favorite example of this “Guided Relaxation Dub” and his recent banger “Decisions” released last year on Buygore Records with backup vocals provided by Miley Cyrus.
Known for his crazy energy and interactive live shows, expect nothing less than a bass-in-your-face energy filled set when Borgore takes the stage at Sun City Music Festival. Buy your Sun City tickets today!
