On a mission to destroy any staleness left in the bass music world, in the short span of Snails’ career, he’s done a pretty stand-up job making sure that happens. A refreshing approach with sure-fire talent were all this Montreal-native needed to start building his rapidly growing fan base thanks to hit singles like “Pump This,” “Wild,” and his “Crazy” bootleg with Brillz. Releasing the follow-up to his first Snailed It! Mix, the second volume of the series, “Welcome To Slugz City” was just unleashed on March 4th and to celebrate, Snails is heading out on his first ever headlining tour Snailin USA!

Though we’re almost certain his family and friends go by his birth name of Fred, we voted against that – the bass-loving escargot is one of the most entertaining characters to have come on our radar lately and we don’t want to give that up. Not to mention his work in the studio sees him really coming out of his shell (pun intended), making some slimey-n-grimey tunes that are now on permanent rotation in our headphones.

Last spring, he gave us the first Snailed It! Mix and wowed fans with a tracklist of all unreleased music. Brewing a bold blend of trap, dubstep, and electro, for 2015, Snails is at it again, releasing volume two of the series Welcome To Slugz City. In the same vein as its predecessor, Welcome To Slugz City is loaded with unreleased songs, some of which account for a full EP of previously undelivered Snail-mail.

Ready to take his sonic slime on the road, monsieur Snails embarks on his first headlining tour this spring with Snailin USA. Kicking off March 7th, the talent will be sluggin’ tunes in all parts of the country before bringing the journey to a close in the tail-end of June. Known for his signature “wet” sounds and bass-heavy productions, on tour, there’s no Fred; Fred’s dead, baby – Vive le Snails!

After kicking off the New Year with us in style at Panamá’s The Day After festival, NERVO’s back on the road stateside for a tour promoting their forthcoming debut album, Collateral. These Aussie-model-singer-songwriter-producing CoverGirls are undeniably one of the biggest acts in dance music and they’re coming to a city near you!

Making waves since the mid-2000s, after years of writing songs for pop stars like Kylie Minogue and Katy Perry, the Nervo twins decided it was time to start producing music under their own name. Giving us hits like “The Way We See the World,” “You’re Gonna Love Again,” and “Hold On,” the sheilas tore through the international club circuit and continue to do so today.

Though they’ve been rocking on stages around the world for quite a bit now, this year, the ladies are eagerly awaiting the release of their debut album, Collateral. Coming out on Ultra Records, the LP features a slew of righteous guest vocalists and NERVO’s signature dirty beats and synth-drenched anthems. Getting ready to release their new single “It Feels,” looks like 2015 has many things in-store for the already unstoppable NERVO duo.
