About a month ago, musician/producer/DJ Trivecta released his epic album The Way Back Up. We raved about the album here at the website, and Trivecta has since embarked on a massive North American tour. He kicked things off with an appearance at Sunset Music Festival in his hometown of Tampa, FL. After quickly hitting a million streams on The Way Back Up it’s clear that the Ophelia Records mainstay is having quite the moment. We got the chance to sit down and have a chat with Trivecta, real name Sam Dobkin, about how the album came together, next steps in his career, possible side projects, and his love for hot sauce. Hey Sam! Thanks for taking the time out to talk to us. First off, tell us a little about yourself, how you got into music, and what’s led you to this point in your career? “I’m Sam, Trivecta, y’all knew that. I got into music when I was like 12 or 13 and my friends were all playing guitar; and I was the kid who was like, well, if my friends are doing it then I’m going to do it way too much until they all hate it. So, I was doing the guitar, we started a band, and eventually, nobody in the band wanted to figure out how to record us and we needed to record. And we sucked, not that we needed to record. But, I took it upon myself to figure it out, and so now I’ve been recording music, for the whole last 18 years of my life I’ve been recording music. Eventually, when EDM got big, I always say that I didn’t’ like it, I hated it, it’s the same kick drum in every beat, I was so annoyed. And I tried to spitefully prove to my roommate and myself that I could do it. Which I couldn’t, it was really hard trying to do it. And now I’m still trying to do it.” You just released your album “The Way Back Up,” we sang its praises on the website. Tell us how the album came to be. When did you conceive of it? How did you put together all the tracks? Just tell us what the process is. “Yeah, so, sonically it all kind of came together. I had been almost kind of disillusioned with kind of a lot of stuff that I was hearing in melodic bass music. I don’t want to say disillusioned, because there’s a lot of great stuff in melodic bass. But, there’s also a lot of same-y copy-cat kind of stuff that was, in my opinion, kind of watering the genre down. It made me lose a lot of interest in that kind of stuff, the kind of niche generalism. This is an opportunity to find a new way to do something creative in here, and kind of briefly. Because if I feel this way, I’m not the only one. So, to me, it was always like people are combining pop music or like trance music to make melodic bass music. And, I was really into like Indie music. Not that stereotypical, dun, dun, dun, dunnda-hey, and to me that was very immersive, that kind of music, just like melodic bass. I’m going to try to be the intersection here. So I started that during the beginning of the pandemic. That was it, I was just gardening, I was dropping little song ideas, dropping song ideas, dropping song ideas, until I had like 30. I’m like alright, how many of these am I going to push further, how many of these are actually getting there. And, finally, it’s like what does this all look like, so on and so forth, and then it all comes together. That’s pretty much about it.” Whatever happens to the songs that get put on the backburner? Do you ever come back to them or do you literally just dump them in the trash? “Yeah, those will probably come around. That’s actually a really good question. Maybe one or two might show up in a deluxe package or something. But, the cool thing is, they become little seeds I can come back to and do something else with.” I know you play guitar in your live sets. In such a crowded field of music, how do you make your songs and your sets stand out from the crowd? “Oh, yeah, it’s a challenge. It’s interesting making live sets with this kind of music is always it’s own kind of…Like, if I was making house music or something it would be so easy. I feel like the more, I guess the song gives you or the more you have to get involved listening to the song. The more fatiguing it becomes. In other words, an hour of just like melodic bass music, is going to be like, dog, what are you doing? So, it’s always got to be like every couple of songs, how are we going to keep it fresh? But, you can’t just melodic bass, melodic bass, dubstep; melodic bass, melodic bass, dubstep; it starts to get pretty obvious. So, you start throwing in different things, psy-trance, tempo changes, house music, different things. So as far the live show, it’s always a damn puzzle, man. Sometimes, I’ll play a festival or show, and somebody who doesn’t play this kind of music. It’s like the question of we want you to play an extra 10 minutes. When that question comes up, sometimes I’ll have guys be like, oh, just take away a few songs, or add a couple of songs, but, with this kind of music, it’s not that easy. If I take one out, that there is the entire domino, that song was the one the pivot that created space for the next one. The live set question is complicated.” Alright, I heard that you’ve got a thing for hot sauce. Tell me about your affinity for hot sauce and your hot sauce endeavors? Tell me what the Trivecta BBQ is like. “Man, I was like 11 or 12, and I started experimenting with taking crystal hot sauce and pouring it into a bowl and I would take goldfish and with my tooth I would poke a little hole in the goldfish and fill it with hot sauce. And I think that was how it all started. And then I got into buffalo wings and boneless buffalo wings which are not chicken nuggets and so on an so forth, blah blah blah. And then it got to the point where eventually my fans got wind of this and started bringing it to the shows and started bringing me sauce. Weird situation with the security guards where they would come back and be like you’re Trivecta? I have sauce for you? And, now, man, I’ve got about 130 sauces sitting there. Yeah, so, dude, I actually went through different waves for a while, I was cooking a lot of steaks and shit, grilling a lot of that. Now these days, I’m trying to slim up, so that means a lot more chicken thighs. But, that lends itself to hot sauce. But, yeah man, we stay grilling, let’s just say we stay grilling.” I asked about how you originally got into music, tell us about other instruments you can play, and what type of music you would be listening to if not melodic bass and other dance music. “Dude, my playlist of music I listen to is all over the place man. What have I been listening to lately? It’ll literally be my mood, it’ll be like anything from old punk rock I grew up on to metal. But, my playlist of music that gives my goosebumps is like it goes to Disney soundtracks, dog, we are everywhere. Instrument-wise, main is guitar, my second though, one of my true loves, is the bass. I love playing the bass. There’s something about…I used to play cover gigs with my buddies here, around the bay area, and I don’t have time to do it anymore. But, now I tell them, if I’m ever in town and you want to get me in to play; and we’re playing like Jimmy Buffett and shit like that. If you ever want me to play, the only way you’re going to get me to play is if you tell me I can play the bass and give me a good drummer to play with. Because, if it’s my shows, if it’s a Trivecta show, I’m ripping the guitar, but if it’s kind of a little jam, sometimes, man, I just like to get people moving.” Like we talked about, the album represents a huge new step as an artist. Now that you’ve put out the album, what’s next? If you’ve even had time to contemplate that. “The next step is tour, that’s the biggie. I was like, great, now that the album is done, I can chill. Nope, now that the album is done, it’s all just working on the headline tour. So, it’s basically that, that’s what’s going to take up the next couple of months. It’s basically, it’s the album tour, that’s the main thing. My motto right now is, if y’all want more melodic bass from me in the next few months, literally, don’t, because you’re not going to get it. Like, close for business, bro. That album took the life out of me, it’s like giving birth to a baby. I thought putting out an EP was challenging, an album is way harder. Probably, the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life, so I’m taking my sweet ass time. I’ll tell you what, man. I started playing like almost kind of like Lane 8 style, like chill house stuff. I’ve been putting them on my Instagram stories, just for fun. I might like, make a little alias, and just put them out at the end of the year, I don’t know. It’s like that with guitar, I don’t really hear anybody else doing that. Y’all heard it here first.” What advice would you have for aspiring producers and people who want to carve out their own niche like you have? “Patience, patience, stick to your craft. As for carving out the niche kind of thing. My thing is you are the intersection of your influences. You are the only person who is the midpoint between all the things that you listen to. And, in my opinion, that’s kind of like THE north star for if you’re going to pave your own way. You don’t have anything to follow, so that’s where things get scary. And you’ve got to spend time learning how to make…like, on guitar, you learn other people’s songs. You learn how to play the songs. People don’t stress that enough when they learn to produce music. Like, you learn to produce music, but you don’t have something to measure up to. So, I think, re-produce parts of your favorite songs to the best of your ability. Like, listen to a song you like, try to reproduce that, listen to another song, try to reproduce that. Doing that you start to figure out what you’re missing. So then once you build out your palette, start thinking how can I be the intersection of everything I’m listening to? How can I take something that I like that nobody else is putting with what I currently know?” Check out the latest from Trivecta, The Way Back Up, out now on Ophelia.

In September 2021, Swedish House Mafia and IKEA announced an upcoming collection of music related home furnishing solutions, designed for producing, performing, and listening to music at home. The name of the collection – OBEGRÄNSAD – was first revealed at the IKEA Festival in Milan. “OBEGRÄNSAD” is Swedish for “unlimited,” and the name hints at the target group of the collection: those with limited budget, but unlimited creativity. With the OBEGRÄNSAD collection, Swedish House Mafia and IKEA aim to “democratize music production at home and enable the many to unleash their passions and creativity.” The reveals at the IKEA Festival during the 2022 Milan Design Week featured three key products from the collection: a desk, an armchair, and a record player, with over 20 individual pieces to eventually be available. The OBEGRÄNSAD collection has the versatility to offer solutions for the home setup whether you are a music producer, DJ, or musician – as well as offering solutions for simply relaxing and listening to music. “The design supports creating, playing, enjoying and even just setting the mood,” says Swedish House Mafia. “Sound is everything in music, and we have added two speaker stands to the desk in order to bring the speakers to the ear level. We have also added a pull-out shelf below the desktop. This functionality allows you to have a midi keyboard, for example, in easy reach, while maximizing space on your desktop,” says Friso Wiersma, IKEA in-house designer. No date was given as to when the products will officially be available for purchase. This article was first published on Your EDM.

ODESZA’s next album, The Last Goodbye, is quickly approaching, and they’ve just released the newest single from the project, “Wide Awake” with Charlie Houston.

Looking at Vienna-based artist Manta’s discography on Beatport, it may surprise some fans that he’s been producing for quite a while; since 2015. Those early tracks were sort of liquid/dancefloor crossover, but in 2017 he met up with Screamarts for two releases on Moshbit Records and T3K. It seems from there, Manta embraced the heavier end of dancefloor and it’s a good thing he did because that’s when the bigger labels started calling. Bad Taste was the first to pick him up in late 2018 for a rare EP called Ares featuring old pal Screamarts and from there the likes of Zombie Cats’ DIASCOPE imprint, Mainframe, High Tea and even ProgRAM were quick to snap up tracks. Now, as fate would clearly dictate, crunchy dancefloor meets the crunchy dancefloor as Korsakov Music sets to release Manta’s next fun, scrambly set of single this Friday, June 10. There’s a lick of liquid remaining in both “Eternity” and “Adrenaline Rush,” so despite these power bangers being every bit the neuro/dancefloor crossover the Korsakov dancefloor goons love, Manta is still sticking somewhat to his melodic roots. “Eternity” features vocals from fellow up-and-comer Sazzles.exe which give it a charming early 2000s rave quality. The sound design on this track, however, is all 2022 big room energy. Cinematic and dramatic with no shortage of intense, neuro-style synths, “Eternity” will do well in multiple settings from the jumpy streets of Bristol to the squinty judgement of Czech neuro snobs at Let It Roll. B-side and our YEDM premiere today “Adrenaline Rush” with Austrian countryman Frank Lemon lives up to its name by being the more, well, adrenaline-y track of these two. The main structure is much harder than “Eternity” and the sound design much less forgiving so the tech-minded listener will be able to appreciate the nuts and bolts. It’s also much more neuro-forward, with fast snares, a hard drop and, of course, those crunchy, crunchy synths. There’s tiny melodic nods here in the intro and break, but as its name suggests, “Adrenaline Rush” is designed to get the listener’s pulse racing at 174 and keep it there. And so it does. Korsakov Music · Manta & Frank Lemon – Adrenaline Rush It’s tough as a newer producer to straddle so many styles as Manta has done. With his clear affinity for melody and more high-range ambient flavor, going dark and dancey while retaining that melodic, almost celestial vibe was likely tricky at first. Now with “Eternity and “Adrenaline Rush,” however, it seems Manta has found his stride. Fans should look forward to enjoying these tracks on pretty much every festie stage this summer and to more well-balanced, multi-styled work from Manta. “Eternity”/”Adrenaline Rush” drop on Korsakov Music June 10.

Here’s what Barkin had to say about it: “I am so excited for my debut track ‘Feels Like.’ I have been working diligently over the last two years to create my sound and this is the perfect track to show it off.

Based in the hidden hills of Valinhos, 100 kilometers from São Paulo City, the #12 club in the world, Laroc, opened its door once again last Saturday (May 7th, 2022) to accommodate over 5.000 people in a night that was 100% sold out. Once again cementing Laroc’s unmatched success as one of the biggest landmarks of the global EDM scene, the club invited the DJ Mag #4 DJ in the world, Alok, alongside a supporting lineup packed with a fresh combination of established hitmakers like Santti and young rising stars like Almanac and Kohen. To rise even higher on DJ Mag’s prestigious Top 100 lists is a common goal of Laroc and Alok, making this event a partnership made in heaven. Both the artist and the club did everything in their power to craft a memorable night that will undoubtedly create a lasting impact on every single attendee. Laroc is arguably one of the most incredible clubs to ever debut in the global dance music scene. Not because it has the most capacity, or the largest stage, but because Laroc’s team is able to combine the energy of a huge festival with the intimacy of clubs into each experience, making up for a unique vibe that’s hard to find elsewhere. The 7-year-old club is on the brink of breaking into the Top 10 of DJ MAG Top 100 Clubs rank, and it doesn’t shy away from the pressure. Laroc recently announced that they will be the exclusive venue for Hardwell’s comeback tour for his brand new album ‘Rebels Never Die;’ an event that has the potential to be one of the biggest nights in the club’s history. We had the opportunity to speak with Thiago Grazioli, Laroc’s Artists Director. Check out what he had to say about Alok, Laroc and Hardwell: “It was a very important night for Laroc, to welcome Alok once again, this time as the 4# DJ in the World was indeed incredible. The night was a complete success: a full house with over 5 thousand people that got together to experience a generational talent that is Alok. It was very interesting to see how creative and precise Alok has become when it comes to conducting his set, not to mention the incredible production team behind his performance, a truly breathtaking experience. And that’s exactly what we expect for such a big act.” “It is absolutely essential that we have Hardwell for his comeback tour at Laroc. Hardwell’s evolution resonates deeply with Laroc, and seeing how his set at Ultra Miami sounded like, we just knew that we had to bring that energy to Brazil. It is not easy to make such a big transition from what he used to play to what he is doing at the moment, and it is incredible to see Hardwell exploring new things. Surely, this transition will be a milestone to his career and for the whole EDM scene.” – Thiago Grazioli, Laroc’s Artist Director This article was first published on Your EDM.

It’s hard to believe it’s been three years since Analog, Misanthrop’s last stunner of an album, where the German producer taught the largely digitized D&B world a little something about the joys of mods. That said, since we all know COVID years don’t count, it’s really more like 18 months. In an interview with UKF, Misanthrop said that he used the largely show-less COVID time to play even more with his experimental side and, inspired by a couple of unfinished tracks from Analog, Universe was born from that weird pandemic time warp. It’s quite fitting, really. From the album intro “It’s Okay,” that time warp feel is real as is the experimental composition, as the beatless track features a host of old-timey, vintage sounds; either actual old sound and music loops (you just know Misanthrop has a stack of those) distorted a bit further along with actual clock sounds and a healthy bit of drone and ambient sound design. It announces to the listeners that Universe will not be your average drum & bass album, but that’s literally always true with Misanthrop. “Jupiter” follows “It’s Okay” and is one of the unfinished Analog tracks and has some similar synths so it’s a good tie-in, connecting 2019 to 2022. It’s still quite different in a lot of ways from the sound of Analog, however, with minimal, tick-tocky drums and a whole chaotic crunchy synth that takes over halfway through and sort of devours the Analog-era stuff. Meanwhile, creepy and ominous vintage sound design plagues the intro and breaks, creating almost a gothic and emotive feel even while the synths are futuristic it’s almost too much. The chaos of the giant planet Jupiter gives this track its namesake and sends the listener through a sonic black hole to this new Universe. The album doesn’t back down from “Jupiter” in terms of chaotic organized noise, so listeners better have got their bearings in that black hole. The halftime beat of “Undo” just means Misanthrop can pack in more madness, static and eerie space sounds. Spaghettification, anyone? From there, “Into the Sun” is bit of relief with a surprisingly vibey, almost liquid (did we just use the term “liquid” in a Misanthrop review?) and musical tune, which, even though Misanthrop said he didn’t write this album for the dancefloor, will likely see its fair share of play during sunrise or sunset festie sets. This track midway through the album is a clear surrender and ties the two halves together. One probably would have to surrender in some way if one was being shot into the sun. From there the chaos is somewhat stymied, with “Jitters” and “Triumph” more recognizably drum & bass, the slow techno of “Off Course” bringing some much appreciated atmospherics and album closer “Galaxy” a rolling, Tron-like rebirth of sound after the madness of the first half of the album. But there’s one track from that first half still looming. Our YEDM premiere is “Alert,” another of the unfinished Analog tracks and easily the most recognizable early Misanthrop tie-in on the album. Lashings of “Desert Orgy” and “Sex Sells” will make neuro fans happy, although this track is decidedly not neuro. A bit of a respite amid all the experimental chaos of the first half of Universe, “Alert” is emotive, evocative and intense but doesn’t have all the harsh lines of “Jupiter” or “Undo.” It’s another solid dance track amongst all the experimental work of this album. No one would blame a listener for taking a bit of time to listen to Universe; it’s a thinker of an album that’s meant to be considered as much as listened to. It’s still quite danceable, however, with tracks like “Alert” and “Into the Sun” likely already being played on dancefloors and punters wondering trying to track ID. Fear not, Misanthrop’s new Universe is almost here. Universe drops this Friday on Misanthrop and Phace’s Neosignal imprint. Click here to pre-order or pre-save.
