Tape B and Effin join forces on etheral bass collaboration ‘Ups and Downs’

Two worlds collide on Tape B and Effin’s latest release for a seamless blend of sound unlike any other.

Tape B and Effin’s highly-anticipated debut collaboration “Ups and Downs” out now on all platforms. Just as they were playing it at a live show in Los Angeles, the crowd jolted into a singular unit of adoration, loving the tone set by Tape B. Moreover, after teasing this release at a sold-out Hollywood Palladium show, the track has gained intense momentum. 

Both Tape B and Effin have melded a variety of musical techniques and sounds to create “Ups and Downs.” Implementing synths and evocative basslines, the two have also blended some retro feelings into the track. The release has struck a balance between both artists, highlighting their individual artistry.

These artists have carved out their own space in the bass music scene, galvanizing many eyes and fans towards their music. The Turkish-born DJ has made music for over a decade, chiseling away at his craft over the years. One particularly significant moment in his career came when he played at Lost Lands in 2019, helping his rise to stardom.

Similarly, Effin has refined his musicality over the years – making himself known for mouth-watering bass-line beats. In the coming months, the two will perform at a variety of high-caliber festivals. Likely, Tape B and Effin will not be shy when it comes to playing their debut collaboration “Ups and Downs.”

The artists will perform at the likes of Bonnaroo, Shambhala, Jannus Live, and The Brooklyn Mirage. Undoubtedly, this announcement has left fans and music lovers very much in anticipation. One can only imagine how the DJs will color the scene at these events.

This highly anticipated track comes just as the days are brighter and the sun is out longer. With certainty, “Ups and Downs” will draw people to the dance floor and nights out. All that is left to do is to hope for more collaborations like this.
