MEMBA and SLUMBERJACK Join Forces on Worldly Trap-Forward Single “Matangi”

Two world-renowned forces MEMBA and SLUMBERJACK encourage peace to be found in the light of violence felt in their new single “Matagi”.

There is a reason why MEMBA and SLUMBERJACK continue to carry the reputation of being some of the sharpest, most forward-thinking minds in electronic music. MEMBA conjures their electronic music by propping up the backbone of ancient world-influenced rhythms, while SLUMBERJACK pits their own juxtaposition of sounds, styles, and concepts up against each other.

“Matagi” carries an orchestra feel combined with an Indian folk melody that effortlessly melts into the weight of space and time aimlessly floating through the drop of an unknown dimension. The density of the beat layers through each rift, leaving the spirit body feeling like it is present in three places at once.

Suddenly, you are dropped into an abyss, dodging every black hole to come towards what is only the beginning of the song. Time moves slower just when the tension builds up faster. Right when the drop is released into oblivion, the beat is accelerated through groundbreaking bass aggressively throwing your neck side to side.

Trap and bass are two powerful forces that share a unique platform that each bass-head searches for: peace within violence. Headbanging and moshing is a collective meditation that embodies the harmony of the two genres. The two worlds stay contained in a safe environment like festivals and raves so that they are released with no judgment. 

The two famed production duos MEMBA and SLUMBERJACK embrace the best of both electronic worlds to be unleashed in “Matagi” via Lowly. 

Given the instant banger this single proclaims, MEMBA and SLUMBERJACK are sure to share the beauty within the darkness of “Matagi” sooner than you think. MEMBA will be performing at Global Dance Festival featuring artists like Above and Beyond, AC Slater, and Wax Motif. With the end of SLUMBERJACK’s tour, fingers are crossed for “Matagi” to be unveiled to the lucky ravers going to his two shows in New Zealand.

May your ears be blessed:
