Fresh off his 2023 dual album releases of Rise of the Wise and Wrath of the Wicked, chart-topping DJ & producer Jauz shares two reimagined WOTW tracks from Jkyl & Hyde and EDDIE via the official Wrath of the Wicked Remixes today, April 12th, via his imprint Bite This!. This final installment (coming shortly after the official Rise of the Wise Remixes from Gudfella and Lovra) features ‘Save U Now (Jkyl & Hyde Remix)’ and ‘Mind Control (EDDIE Remix)’. These remixes offer fresh perspectives on Jauz‘s signature sound, adding new dimensions to his electrifying tracks.
After the release of Rise of the Wise – Remixes in March, which showcased captivating renditions of tracks such as ‘Lights Go Out (LOVRA Remix)’ and ‘What I Wanted (GUDFELLA Remix)’, alongside extended mixes of each, anticipation builds for the next chapter. ‘Wrath of the Wicked – Remixes’ is poised to continue the momentum, promising a listening experience that further cements the legacy of the dual album project.
‘Save U Now (Jkyl & Hyde Remix)’ reimagines the original album closer, a poignant anthem that skillfully combined heart-wrenching vocals with powerful bass elements. Jkyl & Hyde now amplify its speaker-blaster sound, kicking off with an intense, piano-heavy intro, building tension with a gripping breakdown before unleashing trap-style beats that drive the energy skyward. A heavy dub drop ensues, complemented by deep, melodic vocals that add a haunting yet captivating layer to the composition. Luke Enderle and Duke Specht, aka Jkyl & Hyde, are rising stars in bass music, releasing tracks on top labels like Disciple, Never Say Die, Subsidia, DPMO UK, and Bassrush.
The ‘Mind Control (EDDIE Remix)’ takes the original electrifying dubstep banger to new heights with its grimy bass treatment. With EDDIE at the helm, the track undergoes a thrilling transformation, retaining the essence of the original while injecting it with a fresh dose of intensity and raw energy. EDDIE, one of Australian Dance Music’s secret weapons, made his mark on deadmau5‘s mau5trap label in 2017 with ‘No Time’ and subsequent EP releases like ‘Pipe Dream’, ‘Spiritual Contraband’, ‘Bad Habits’, and ‘Blueprints.’ His collaboration with ATLiens on Closer’ for Insomniac’s Bassrush imprint and the REZZ collaboration ‘Stress’ marked breakout moments, followed by high-profile remixes and recognition on Youredm’s top 40 Artists to Watch list.
Born Sam Vogel and hailing from the Bay Area, Jauz has been making waves in the dance music scene since his debut in 2014. His journey from Hard Summer fan to main stage performer showcases his rapid ascent. With his breakout hit ‘Feel the Volume’ on Mad Decent, the music innovator caught the attention of industry giants like Zedd, Skrillex, and Diplo. Known for his dynamic sets and genre-defying tracks, he’s since become a fixture on global festival stages.
In 2016, Jauz kicked off his first sell-out tour, “The Friendzy Tour,” followed by the “Bite America!” Tour in 2018, which also marked the launch of his celebrated label, Bite This! Thereafter, he released his debut album, The Wise & The Wicked– which made history by topping the dance charts within just 90 minutes of its release. Garnering over 20 million streams in less than three weeks, the album solidified his position as a dance music powerhouse.
Fast forward to 2023, Jauz released two all-original albums to pay homage to his debut LP- exploring progressive-house sounds with Rise of the Wise, followed up by the drum-and-bass and dubstep-infused Wrath of the Wicked– showcasing the producer’s versatility in the electronic music realm. His highly anticipated Wise vs. Wicked 2024 Tour kicks off in April, where concertgoers may choose between a ‘Wise’ or ‘Wicked’ show- or can indulge in both for the ultimate Jauz experience. By offering two different shows in each city, the forward-thinking producer invites fans to explore the duality within themselves and revel in the diverse range of sounds he has to offer.
Ensuring that each chapter of his journey resonates deeply with fans, Jauz’s Wrath of the Wicked – Remixes is a testament to his unwavering dedication to artistic evolution and pushing boundaries across genres. With an exciting North American tour on the horizon, the Bite This! Label-owner continues to leave an indelible mark on the history of electronic music and shows no sign of slowing down.
