Out today via HypnoVizion is the latest single from Canadian producer Rezz in collaboration with elusive duo Chuurch, entitled ‘Telepathy.’ Recently rinsed during Rezz’s sold-out debut PORTAL show in the Bay Area, ‘Telepathy’ is another fan-favorite and hit from the archives. First created nine years ago and only heard as a live ID, ‘Telepathy’ embodies the kinetic energy of the dancefloor. Tension swells with ominous vocal samples as the track unfolds with eerie synths and grimy basslines l

“Signal” serves as the second single off Rezz’s forthcoming IT’S NOT A PHASE EP, due out this summer, and the anticipated sequel to her and Grabbitz‘ previous release, “Someone Else” released in 2020. The single notably serves a more alt-rock vibe than their previous collaboration, adding some more live instrumentation and plenty of the Grabbitz vocals we know and love, as well. Embracing the distinct elements of rock and electronic music, “Signal” fortifies the nostalgic references and cros

Yesterday, Rezz announced that she and Seven Lions were going to upload their debut collaboration, “Arcturus,” for free on SoundCloud. They collab has been played out live since at least November 2021 if not earlier. According to Rezz, it hadn’t been released yet because it’s more of a “live” track. “I released my OG version of the track in my NORS2 mix, and he had just released his album, but we decided, ‘fuck it,'” she said in a tweet. Listen to “Arcturus” below!   Press Photos: N

Just a little less than a month ago, Rezz and Subtronics teased doing a collaboration together. Today, fans can have the pleasure of streaming “Puzzle Box” from their homes, cars, or wherever any time they want. The collaboration is a brilliant combination of both artists’ unique styles, with both of them just recently releasing albums — for Rezz, her third; for Subtronics, his first. Proceeds from sales of a limited edition T-Shirt featuring the track artwork will be donated to Voices Of Chil

Space mom is back with more new music, this time a collaborative EP with X1-Y2. NOVUS is a powerful, groundbreaking four-track EP that lifts midtempo bass music to insurmountable new heights. Out now on REZZ’s Hypnovizion Imprint. The pair’s boundless creativity and artistry meld perfectly together, tied in with REZZ’s unquestionably clean and effortless production that pushes the boundaries of sonic frequencies. All four tracks are equally as intense and compelling, with ‘PROXIMATE’ being a cer

What do you get when you mix the brooding soundscapes of Rezz, pristine bass of Virtual Riot and ethereal vocals of One True God? You get the rugged, emotive banger "Give in to you," out now via HypnoVizion and Monstercat. Walking a tightrope between hope and heart-shredding devastation, the new single illustrates the dark side of its title, thought at times weaving threads of emotional clarity. "In life people often choose what’s familiar to them over what’s actually good for them," says Virtua

Two-time JUNO-award-winning Canadian producer Rezz and German Dubstep leader and Grammy-nominee Virtual Riot unveil their highly-anticipated collaboration, ‘Give in to you (feat. One True God)‘. The sultry track, released Friday on Monstercat, marks the debut collaboration from these electronic powerhouses. ‘Give in to you’ is a haunting blend of Rezz’s signature Midtempo soundscapes, Virtual Riot’s heavy-hitting Bass prowess, and One True God’s emotive vocals. The addictive heavily saturated ba

Rezz seems to have the bass music community in a continuous chokehold, and with help from the enigmatic X1-Y2, she's tightened her grip by dropping a new EP. Out now via Rezz's own HypnoVizion label, NOVUS features four gritty tracks, all connected by an eerie futurism that feels like walking through the ruins of an extraterrestrial civilization.  "PROXIMATE" kicks it off with a decisive deluge of pounding beats and digitized melodies, solidifying itself as a standout. The ensuing tracks "ETERNA

After three albums, countless singles, and years of devoting herself to a specific vibe, Rezz has announced the launch of her own label: HypnoVizion. The producer/DJ to label-owner pipeline is pretty well documented, with plenty of artists running their own labels like Subtronics, Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Kayzo, and more, including Skrillex’s OWSLA where Rezz had her debut in 2015. The move for Rezz is pretty right on schedule and one of the clear next moves in her career. “After years of con

Electronic music pioneer REZZ has announced the seventh edition of her renowned REZZ ROCKS event, returning to Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO, for a two-night headlining showcase on October 18 and 19. For the first time since 2022, the second night will feature her highly popular mix series, Nightmare On Rezz Street III. Artist Pre-Sale Begins on January 30 at 10am Local Time General On-Sale to Follow on January 31 at 10am Local Time. Register for presale here. The two-night affa

Rezz has released on many labels, including mau5trap, Deadbeats, and Confession, but she’s now announced that she’s starting her own music label. If you look through her releases on Spotify, many releases dating back to 2018 have been released under Rezz Music, such as her Beyond The Senses EP in 2019. It appears that around 2020, Rezz Music was under exclusive license to RCA Records. Though, it’s unclear at this time whether she’s regaining sole ownership of Rezz Music and relaunching it with

It's difficult to imagine Rezz's thumping 2016 hit, "Edge," any darker. But if there's anyone to reinvent the hypnotic track through an even eerier lens, its Rezz herself, who has released a new version of her breakout song. Eight years ago, "Edge" helped put Rezz and her spellbinding production style on the map. Now it's reached new heights by virtue of a massive rework, which is out now on her longtime home of mau5trap. Conjuring her signature ominous soundscapes while channeling the original

Lots of producers can work intensely quickly when given the proper incentive or inspiration. This past Sunday, two days ago, Rezz sent a WIP (work in progress) over to Subtronics to get some of his “disturbingly gigantic bass noises” in the mix. One day later, the Canadian producer announced the song had been finished. Rezz will begin her Spiral Tour on February 18 and Subtronics is currently in the midst of his Fractal tour, both supporting their own respective new albums. As per Rezz, “Both o

Rezz just recently played yet another packed-out EDC set in Las Vegas, and she’s back with her newest single — this time, she’s tackling a cover of Eurythmics’ ’80s classic “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)” with fknsyd. The two previously collaborated on “Let Me In” off her most recent album, Spiral. On the new track, Rezz says, “I originally started creating this instrumental for Nightmare on Rezz Street but then I started to hear the sweet dreams vocal over top of it. I played around with the

Another weekend passes by the embattled Brooklyn Mirage as they were forced to cancel and / or reschedule another round of events with A-list talent. Fortunately, REZZ and her team were able to pivot to Summer Stage in Central Park, an iconic outdoor venue with similar capacity. The resilience of the team showed through and she ended the show with a heartfelt speech and thunderous applause. The show went off without a hitch — and despite an early start time of 5pm and the opening acts r

Electronic music sensation Rezz has unveiled her latest venture: a line of signature Hypno Googles. The enigmatic artist, known for her distinctive visual style, has translated her iconic stage look into wearable fashion. These LED-infused goggles replicate Rezz’s signature eyewear, allowing fans to channel their inner electronic music icon. With a focus on style and aesthetics, the Hypno Googles are designed to make a bold statement and complement any outfit. While not offering any

REZZ launched her new label HypnoVizion back in October with the release of her own Nightmare on Rezz Street 2. Now, a just about a couple months later comes the first external-artist release and what an incredible opportunity to revive the amazing project that is isqa. Jordan Orcaz, from Southern California, first adopted the name isqa in 2013 with the release of a 10-track debut album titled Tetraform. A handful of EPs on DUSTLA, remixes, and independent releases followed before Orcaz decided

It’s actually pretty incredible that Rezz and Shadient haven’t released a collaboration until now, but we can finally say the day is here. “Blue In The Face” with fknsyd brings together a group of artists who’ve all occupied the same space for a long time. Shadient has worked with fknsyd, fknsyd has worked with Rezz, and now they’ve all finally combined their powers. Regarding the track, Rezz said, “I’ve known Shadient since my earliest producer days and we’ve been wanting to collab for a long

Peering through Rezz's futuristic lens will soon be reality after she announced the launch of an exclusive line of branded goggles. Establishing a spellbinding connection with her fans, the electronic music superstar's cyberpunkian LED glasses have been her signature since the early days of her career. Rezz is now developing the goggles for mass distribution, she says, so they can finally don a pair of their own. "What if I told you… I was launching my own custom pair of branded hypno glasses ,

Rezz has gone from rising midtempo producer to legitimate headliner in the time since her first release in 2015. Combining her unique branding, relatively transparent personality on social media, and her hypnotizing live sets, it’s really no surprise. One of her biggest supporters since the beginning has been deadmau5, and though the two have appeared on stage together before, like at North Coast 2021, there hasn’t yet been an official b2b between the two. That seems like it’s set to change nex

Rezz has been extremely private about her personal life since she broke into the music industry in 2015. The daughter of Iranian/Ukrainian parents and a member of the LGBTQ+ community, she has stayed largely out of the public eye while becoming comfortable and confident in her own skin. Overcoming a debilitating battle with insomnia in early 2022, which she considers her greatest obstacle to date, inspired Rezz to go on the podcast SHE/HER/THEY with KITTENS and be more vulnerable and open up ab

We’re officially in 2023. All the end of year lists are done and new ones are expected… “What to expect,” “What to look out for,” “What we still don’t have…” In the same fashion, DJs and producers are already playing out some of their big new tracks for this year with the slew of New Year’s Eve & Day events all across the country this past weekend. Rezz played at Hijinx in Philadelphia this past weekend on the 30th, so not quite NYE but it still qualifies as a NYE festival. During her set,

The collaboration between Rezz and deadmau5 reached new heights over the weekend, when they closed out Tomorrowland's Freedom Stage. "If you told me that when I was 16 I’d laugh and say theres no chance," she said on X prior to the festival. The duo's camaraderie was palpable onstage as they performed together under their collaborative alias, REZZMAU5, at the world's largest electronic dance music festival. Jaw-dropping visual production complimented their hypnotic set, which brought the crowd's
