Subtronics Launches New Record Label Cyclops Recordings, Promoting Unconditional Kindness Through Cutting-Edge Bass Music
|
|
Today, Subtronics announces the official launch of Cyclops Recordings, his brand new record label dedicated to promoting unconditional kindness through the most cutting-edge sounds in bass music. Previously the home to just Subtronics' latest series of four self-released EPs - which have catapulted his high-energy, hard-hitting fusion of bass music and "spaced out wook trap vibes" to over 100 million streams, hit collaborations with GRiZ, headlining performances at Red Rocks, sets at Electric Forest and more - Cyclops Recordings will now provide a platform to the next generation of producers around the globe and beyond, working every day to push the creative boundaries of what we all thought possible.
Next Friday, December 11, Subtronics (aka Jesse Kardon) will mark the beginning of Cyclops Recordings by dropping Boot Camp, a colossal label compilation featuring brand new music from over 20 artists who were summoned by cryptic call-to-action emailsearlier this week. With contributions from Akeos, Control Freak, LEVEL UP, phonon, Subtronics himself and so many others, the track list spans genres only classifiable by the titles Subtronics has given them - High Knees Headquarters, Psychedelic Divisionand Heavy Artillery.

From December 11-13, Subtronics will celebrate the Boot Camp release with a monumental run of three drive-in shows at San Bernardino's NOS Events Center. While the live concert industry continues to face the uncertainties of COVID-19, Subtronics has been quietly pioneering a safe, socially-distanced model of drive-in and pod performances. He and his team developed a strict set of protocols that promoters are now following nationally, which have led to 35 of his own sold-out shows and counting, as well as a solution for the world of electronic music.

While the December 11th and 12th drive-ins are sold out, each night will be headlined by Subtronics with opening sets from different groups of Boot Camp contributors: Calcium, Al Ross and LEVEL UP (Dec 11); Chee, G-Space and Abelation (Dec 12); Chee B2B G-Space B2B Abelation, phonon and Syzy (Dec 13).
Cyclops Recordings is the latest evolution in the Subtronics ecosystem, which includes Cyclops Army, a loving and dedicated online community of more than 40,000 fans, and CyclopsArmyTV, a Twitch channel focused on live sets, lessons, listening sessions and more.
Each song on Boot Camp will come with its own artwork by frequent Subtronics collaborator and Dead & Co designer Aaron Brooks. Stay tuned for more news from Subtronics and Cyclops Recordings coming very soon.
