Jauz and Masked Wolf have joined forces on new single ‘Mercy’, out today on Spinnin’ Records.
A high-energy sonic assault, ‘Mercy’ pairs scattergun club beats with the urgent vocals of Masked Wolf. Jauz’s fourth single release of 2022, it follows ‘Like Before’ with Habstrakt, ‘PPL’ with Johnny Gold, and the groove-laden ‘Bring Et’, which was released via Jauz’s own Bite This! label. He has also enjoyed a slew of high-profile shows, including EDC Las Vegas, Ultra Europe and Tomorrowland.
Jauz has dominated the electronic music space for years with a #1 album “The Wise & The Wicked” that reached the top of the charts on iTunes dance within 90 minutes of release, and also has released chart-topping hit singles ‘Feel The Volume’ (over 30 million streams) and ‘Rock The Party’ (over 25 million streams). He’s headlined festivals across the globe including Ultra Music Festival, Life Is Beautiful Las Vegas, EDC Japan, Tomorrowland and many more.
He’s secured residencies in Las Vegas at premier nightclubs including KAOS, Hakkasan, and most recently Elia Beach Club. In 2019 the producer went viral at Coachella dropping his remix of Pink Fong’s ‘Baby Shark’, which accumulated over 250 million impressions during the festival’s weekend. Jauz made his TV debut in 2019 performing as a special guest DJ on The Discovery Channel’s Shark Week for the “Shark After Dark” program alongside comedians Rob Riggle and Adam Devine.
Last year Jauz launched $BTX Coin, his own personal cryptocurrency via Rally, which will help emerging artists and their fans gain valuable exposure, release music, and even collaborate with him. In February his remix of SHAED’s breakout hit “Trampoline” was synced to star Netflix show Ginny & Georgia catapulting the release to new heights with over 2.5M cumulative usages on Tik Tok & reels averaging 1M streams a week even 2 years after release.
Most recently he was tapped by TV Giant CBS to remix “See You In September” by the Happenings for a 30 second spot to promote this fall’s line up of comedies, dramas, and the new NFL Season. Jauz has also been tapping into his OTDE project even more, which has been exploding recently and led to a massive OTDE set at this year’s Coachella.
Transforming from a mild-mannered man by day into an unrestrained beast in the studio, Masked Wolf (aka, Harry Michael) has unassumingly established himself as a powerful, passionate, and primal hip-hop force. After graduating from school, the Sydney, Australia native tirelessly worked in sales to fund recording.
He even took out a loan to build a home studio as he cut hundreds of songs and logged thousands of hours in the lab. In 2018, he dropped his independent debut “Speed Racer.” It gathered millions of streams and turned heads across Australia.
Following “Night Rider” and “Water Walkin,” he unveiled “Astronaut in the Ocean.” Awash in airy guitar, jagged 808s, neon keys, and deft wordplay, he submerged himself in honest lyricism, facing depression head-on. That one-two-punch of a recognizable riff and chantable chorus organically caught fire online.
It quickly incited millions of Tik Tok videos, spanning everything from footage of U.S. military Blackhawk chopper crews to welders and ice fisherman (far from your typical Tik Tok fare!). Meanwhile, Kansas City Chief Super Bowl champ quarterback Patrick Mahomes even incorporated the tune into an Instagram post, fueling its explosion in early 2021. Amassing over 2 Billion streamsand counting, the buzzing rapper and singer unleashes a torrent of personal truths and emotions on his debut for Teamwrk Records, Elektra Records and more to come.
‘Mercy’ is an uncompromising club cut that simply refuses to be ignored.
