“Power” is the first ever collaboration between Australian and American bass music powerhouses Blanke and Kompany.
The two join forces to create a behemoth of a track with intense builds, blood curling dubstep and speed house drops and tons of robotic ear candy.
The release comes in the midst of Blanke’s massive 50 date ‘Earth To The Stars Tour’ where he’s been promoting the track and before Kompany’s headline show at Exchange LA.
In a scene divided between rail riders waiting for the heaviest drop and stage hoppers seeking out the most technical sounds, Los Angeles bass DJ/producer Kyle Hagberg (aka Kompany) rises above with one foot firmly planted on each side.
A former sound designer for Cymatics, Hagberg delivers meticulously crafted basses packaged as festival music, creating a distinct dubstep style many have tried to emulate over the years.
Kompany has collaborated with bass music giants such as Excision, SLANDER, Subtronics and Sullivan King, and was once name dropped by ILLENIUM as one of his favorite heavy artists.
Some of Kompany’s most recognized tracks are his anthemic collaborations with fellow briddim godfather Wooli, notably 2018’s “Thicc Boi.” Last year’s Untouchable Tour marked Kompany’s first run of headline shows, with him performing at over 30 clubs and festivals across the United States and Canada, including a coveted main stage slot at Lost Lands. He has also recently taken his DJ sets worldwide, performing for crowds in Australia and New Zealand, along with sold out shows in Europe and China.
In just 3 years, JP Orchison has taken the Blanke project from his native Australia to the World. Named Break Out Artist on Subreddit R/EDM’s best of 2019 & inking a deal with United Talent Agency, Blanke (in his first year of North American Touring) was booked to play on festivals like Paradiso, Global Dance, Hard Summer, Dancefestopia & EDC Las Vegas, was a regular on lineups for Brands like Deadbeats and
Brownies & Lemonade and was selected as a support act for Illenium’s massive ‘Ascend’ Arena Tour in mid-late 2019 before kicking off 2020 with a 40+ date tour across North America as main support for Black Tiger Sex Machine. Blanke showed no signs of slowing down throughout the lockdown.
Official Remixes landed for Slander, Seven Lions and Zeds Dead & Subtronics & his single ‘Alchemy’ hit the #1 most played position on triple j Radio.
Last year, he was named to EDM.com’s Class of 2021, and was one of the first acts to announce a post lockdown National tour in his native Australia. He’s currently in the midst of his 50 date tour ‘Earth To The Stars’ with headline shows at Exchange LA, Webster Hall and Denver’s Ogden Theatre.
