Knock2 Impresses With Epic New Singl ‘dashstar*’!
Anyone who prides themselves on keeping a finger on the dance music pulse would be quick to namedrop Knock2 as an artist who is making moves—and then some. The San Diego native has already busted down the door last year, as he rightfully nestled his way onto a few end-of-year lists, including both Your EDM and Dancing Astronaut’s Artists to Watch in 2021. He also secured a plug in Run The Trap’s Top 20 Trap Songs of 2020, which he earned from the aptly titled ‘GEMS’ that etched itself as one of the most standout offerings from RL Grime’s ‘Sable Valley Summer Vol. 1’ compilation. Knock2 is staying on top of that momentum with his first appearance on Night Mode.
On his “dashstar*” single, he dips into his house-aimed arsenal to unleash a beastly house number that is slated to pop off, just as much as the featured vox intended. He opens up with a siren-call of a hook, as the luring voice rings out atop glimmering melodies and wall-rattling rave stabs. Soon enough, Knock2 answers back with a larger-than-life bounce powered by buoyant basslines, crisp drum programming, alarm samples, and a raw lead that will have heads losing their shit every single time it hits.
Within the last couple of years, Knock2 has strategically straddled the line between house and bass music—without ever falling prey to the perils of pandering. The chameleonic producer has been able to seamlessly switch-up styles from hefty house bangers to elbow-throwing trap slappers. He gained some notoriety early on with the release of his cleverly named ‘knockthisoff’ remix EPs, which saw him slanging flips of tracks from Kanye, BROCKHAMPTON, What So Not, Dog Blood, and beyond. Furthermore, he’s knocked around some quality originals that have taken him to esteemed camps from the likes of Dim Mak, Musical Freedom and more. With his hyped debut on Night Mode now falling into place, Knock2 is banging on the door with another reason why his name is one everyone will be saying in no time.

BETH Turns Up the Energy With New Single ‘Wait’
Scottish producer BETH returns on The Cross Records with new single Wait, following a breakout 2026 of festival slots, Ibiza dates and Radio 1 support.
In the space of a year, BETH has gone from respected up and comer to a genuine festival act. Her debut on The Cross Records, “Keep It Movin’,” is closing in on 1 million streams, and she’s kept up a steady run of releases on labels like TSHA’s Jackfruit, Eats Everything’s Edible, and Melon Bomb Records, along with a well received remix of Karen Harding’s “Island.” That output has earned her support on BBC Radio 1, with plays from Sarah Story and Arielle Free.
Her live schedule has kept pace too. This year she’s played TRNSMT Festival, Sub Club, Cabaret Voltaire, and SWG3 in Scotland, Mas Que Nada in London, and Lakota in Bristol, plus Ibiza dates at Hï, Cova Santa, and Pikes.

“Wait” marks a step forward in her production. Where “Keep It Movin'” leaned into sultry, harmonic melodies, “Wait” goes bigger and brighter, built around euphoric piano chords, a driving 90s inspired break, and deep reese bass. It’s a feel good summer record from an artist whose rise shows no signs of slowing down.

Deadlynoiz is consistently looking to evolve his productions and has leaned into more experimental territories here with emphatic results.
His development as an artist is evident from both his productions and his accolades as he’s attracted the attention of LVLD Music. He’s dropped a slew of hits with them and is continuing to develop their relationship with the release of ‘Rock The House’ on their label. Since it’s release the track has already raked in thousands of streams and he’s pushed onto releasing even more music in ‘Magic’ and ‘Block.’ Now bringing in over 20,000 streams a month on Spotify it’s clear that Deadlynoiz’s hard work is paying off as his fanbase continues to grow.
‘Rock The House’ is another step forward in Deadlynoiz’s evolution in sound and development as an artist. With every release he’s proving his abilities in the studio and with the rate he’s working at, there’s plenty more to come.

Scarper Drops ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’ Compilation
Scarper releases ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’, a collection of eight unreleased tracks from the era behind his debut album ‘Warmer Squares’ and ‘E-Funk’.
UK artist Scarper has released ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’, a hand-picked collection of eight previously unreleased tracks pulled from the same period that produced his critically acclaimed debut album ‘Warmer Squares’ and his 2020 dancefloor tune ‘E-Funk’, which has been experiencing a resurgence thanks to a recent physical release on a new imprint.
The project is exactly what it sounds like, Scarper going back through his studio archives and finding the demos, jams, and ideas from that era that were good enough to polish up and put out. “I realised I had quite a few demos, jams and ideas on my laptop from that period, some of which were decent enough to polish up and get out into the world,” he said. “It’s a snapshot of where I was musically at the time, so I thought I’d package them together as a retrospective rather than a proper release, giving people something to enjoy while I crack on with the next project.”
The eight tracks cover a lot of ground, from the epic opening chords of ‘Skynet’ to the acid squelches of ‘Steppe’ and the string arrangements of ‘Halocline’. It is the kind of release that rewards the people who have been paying attention, and sits comfortably alongside some of his best work.
Scarper has built his career almost entirely on his own terms, releasing through his own imprint Plexus Records and picking up support from Orbital, Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Rinse FM, BBC 6 Music, Mixmag, and DJ Mag along the way.
‘Off-Cuts (2014–2021)’ is out now on Plexus Records.
