WAKAAN seems to have a never ending supply of absolutely incredible talent flowing through their label on a daily basis. Bringing forth her highly anticipated debut to this incredible collection of artists is none other than Australian producer, Ren Zukii. Fresh to the scene, she has already left her mark and continues to do so with the release of her EP, Monarch. This 4 track compilation spans many interchangeable genres, focusing on bold basslines, and some killer drum and bass segments heard throughout. “Deadmen”, our premiere track today, incorporates both these heavy basslines and flowing synths with the perfect bouncy tune that you don’t want to miss. Let’s take a deeper dive into why we are calling “Deadmen” and the rest of the Monarch EP, a certified bop.
“The ‘Monarch’ EP is a culmination of 6 years of my journey in music. I realized I could never really just write one style of music so I set off to combine everything I love about the experimental bass music scene. A lot of the inspiration for this EP came from listening to a lot of Metal and watching Quentin Tarantino movies. It’s chaotic, emotional and visceral and is the first of many to come.”

If I could start over, I would have created a solid routine for myself earlier on and stuck to it, for example, maintaining a social and work life, while giving myself enough time to sit down and make tunes.
- What’s one cool fact about yourself/or your project that not many fans know about?
