NIMDA Wreaks Havoc w/ New Single “Baddest” [Q&A+Mix]

One of UK’s finest tear out dubstep talents is here to set an imprint on today’s era of modern day heavy hitting bass music. His name is Nimda, an individual who is known to consistently release massive heaters thanks to his endless arsenal of relentless music projects. Today we get a glimpse into the mind of Nimba and his creativity through the likes of the newly established “MENTIS AUDIO”  , an independent label he decided to launch back in December of 2021. If you’re looking to spiral out of control and let loose to an absolute banger,  then you will have “Baddest” on repeat till Spotify glitches out due to malfunction. It’s time to take a deeper dive as to what makes his newest release what we like to call , a certified bop.

  1. What would you tell your younger self today knowing where you’re at now and what it took to get there?

I’d probably tell myself to care less and have more fun when it comes to making music, but also the more effort you put in the more you will get out of it. I spent the first 8 years of music making experience not really trying and also worrying too much about my releases not doing well, in reality I should’ve tried harder when it came to my production and stressed less about stats.

 

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

I’d love to make a song with Svndman or Leotrix. Svndman is discontinued I’m pretty sure so lets say Leotrix. Leotrix is very good at a wide range of styles, I think my obnoxious approach to music would combine well with his sound design knowledge and thought-out approach to that kind of riddim sound. (Even though I pretty much never make riddim)

Take a Walk on the Dark Side w/ Redrum via “Idiosyncrasy”

Take a Walk on the Dark Side w/ Redrum via “Idiosyncrasy”

Wakaan’s very own Redrum has blessed our ears with a new track that takes a bit of a darker tune than some of the other tracks produced by this heavy hitter. Hoping to step out of her usual comfort zone, “Idiosyncrasy” provides a heavier sound, perfectly meshing the right amount of suspense with devastatingly deep drops and beautiful beats. The premiere we bring you today is only the first single off her highly anticipated second EP and definitely makes us excited to see what else is in store! Let’s take a deeper dive as to why we like to consider this what we like to call, a certified bop.

“Idiosyncrasy is the first single off my second EP, Chaos Theory. I wanted to experiment with heavier, darker sounds and step outside of my comfort zone with writing in a different style, and I’m really excited for everyone to hear a new sound from me” – REDRUM

1. What would you tell your younger self today knowing where you’re at now and what it took to get there?

I have so much I want to say to my younger self but I think the biggest thing would just be to keep going, it gets better. I spent a lot of my life before I found music not wanting to be here and I wish I could go back and tell that girl how much better things get.

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

I have so many artists I want to collaborate with! I would love to work with Apashe or Clozee though, I’m curious what our styles would sound like combined!

BroMosapien Brings the Heat w/ new track “Playtime”

BroMosapien Brings the Heat w/ new track “Playtime”

If you have been looking for an absolute heatier of a halftime track, boy do we have the one for you! Heavy hitter North Carolina native, Andy Underwood, better known as BroMosapien, has come out swinging with his new release “Playtime” that we are featuring today. Combining crazy neuro bass sounds, absolutely bonkers drum beats and a fresh futuristic style, this tune will have you on your feet and losing your mind with every single drop. We promise you’ll have this one on repeat for the foreseeable future. Come explore why we are dubbing this particular track, a certified bop.

“This track is a halftime zinger that showcases my signature sound with some added flare. Drums & percussion have ALWAYS been a focal point for me, so this tune 100% delivers on that end. Adding in some gnarly neuro basses & some psy squelches was a must as well! This tune is a driving force on the dance floor & you can expect many more DONKERS like this from myself for the rest of 2022… Incredibly stoked to be releasing this with my hometown friends over at Tuff Sounds & stoked to see where the future takes them as well! “

What would you tell your younger self today knowing where you’re at now and what it took to get there?

 I would tell my younger self ANY & EVERY bit of production knowledge I have now. I had some of the craziest musical ideas growing up, but I just didn’t know how to 100% execute them. I would also tell myself to not worry about what others are doing as much & focus on my own path. Everyone has a different path in life & you can’t compare your own personal journey to someone else’s. Life works in mysterious ways, but if you trust the process, you’ll end up RIGHT where you want to be! 

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

 Oof that is a tough one. So many artists I want to work with. To name a few I’d say Kursa, Tipper(YEAH RIGHT), Jantsen, Noisia, Death Grips, & Tame Impala. Honestly that list could go on FOREVER & EVER. All of the best collaborations generally come from the connections I’ve made in the industry though. Nothing quite beats vibing with people in & out of the studio and making art together. I’m always open to collaborate with styles outside of my comfort zone to help push the envelope of my sound!

“I want to give a huge thank you to the absolute family over at Solace. Jared , Jackson , Isaac and Brandon. It’s an absolute honor to remix such a fire tune made by such talented individuals. Serious community vibes on this Remix EP. Amazing pieces of work from start to finish. You best not miss out on this one! Or I’m coming for those haunches. ”

2. What would you tell your younger self today knowing where you’re at now and what it took to get there?
