Bass heavy “boy band”, Xotix, is back at it again this week, this time bringing us a ridiculously stacked collaboration list on their new “Fresh Remix” EP. Featuring artists such as smol, Jalaya, and GLASSPVCK, this entire EP is back to back madness from some of the forerunners in the freeform scene. Today, we have the honor of bringing you ASHEZ’s specially curated remix of “Fresh” which is an absolute must listen. This downtempo slapper of a track provides us with some extremely nasty wubby drops, taking this already mind blowing tune and reworking it into a heavy hitter of a deep bass creation. Get your bass faces ready folks and let’s check out why we’re calling this remix a certified bop.
“When the Xotix boys hit me up to remix one of their tracks for their EP I couldn’t have said yes fast enough. These boys have been killing it and I knew a remix EP would get a lot of hype. The stems were super fun to work with, I really enjoyed writing this one!”

- Where do you see yourself in 5 years and what’s your game plan to get there currently?

“I see myself most likely living in the states, potentially Denver or Portland. My wife is from Portland, Oregon, so we travel back and forth quite a bit already but once I start getting more interest and bookings in the states I feel it will make the most sense to move there (we live in New Zealand currently). My ultimate goal is to be able to travel and live off playing my music (I guess that’s every musician’s goal). The way I hope to achieve that is by just staying consistent and continuing doing what I’m doing, consistent releases and networking until I get there.”

- If there was an artist you had the chance to collaborate with, who would it be and why?

“CloZee. When I first travelled the states back in 2017, I saw her perform at Oregon Eclipse Festival and it seriously changed my life. I had never heard music like that before and I fell in love with it. That set is what inspired me to start making the music I make. I was already producing but not bass music. Fast forward to the beginning of 2021, I got sent a video of CloZee playing out one of my tunes (I didn’t even know she knew who I was). Then later that year I finally got to meet her and hang out with her at her show in Portland. She’s been supporting me so much over the past year and has shown my music to a bunch of other artists such as LSDream, Opiuo and Maddy O’neil and I can’t thank her enough for that. Hopefully one day we’ll work on music together.”
