Genre-blending artists Asher Shashaty and Matisyahu are joining forces for a fresh reimagining of Twenty One Pilots’ fan-favorite track “Lane Boy.” Scheduled for release on July 7 via SoundCloud, the collaboration transforms the alternative anthem into a bass-heavy electronic experience while preserving the spirit of the original.
The new version fuses reggae, hip-hop, trap, bass music, and subtle drum & bass influences into a dynamic reinterpretation that refuses to be confined by genre. Warm melodies float above booming low-end frequencies, crisp percussion, and atmospheric production, resulting in a track that feels equally suited for festival speakers and late-night headphone sessions. The balance of uplifting energy and laid-back groove gives the remix an immersive quality that nods to the original while charting an entirely new direction.
The release showcases the creative chemistry between two artists known for pushing musical boundaries.
Asher Shashaty has quickly emerged as one of electronic music’s promising new producers, building a distinctive sound that blends lo-fi, drum & bass, and melodic electronic production. With more than one million career streams and standout releases like “Beach House” surpassing 500,000 streams, he has steadily expanded his profile through collaborations with artists including Matisyahu, Dani King, Misdom, Miyoki, and Greg Shields of Kash’d Out. His growing momentum has also earned support from Spotify editorial playlists and recognition from leading electronic music publications, while performances at festivals such as Enchanted Sound Festival and Friendzy Fest continue to elevate his live presence.
Joining him is Matisyahu, the Grammy-nominated singer, rapper, and songwriter whose genre-defying career has seamlessly blended reggae, hip-hop, alternative rock, and spiritual lyricism for nearly two decades. Rising to international prominence with songs including “King Without A Crown,” “One Day,” and “Sunshine,” the Brooklyn-born artist has released seven studio albums, including Light, Youth, Spark Seeker, Akeda, and Undercurrent. Throughout his career, Matisyahu has collaborated with a wide range of artists, including Twenty One Pilots and Shaggy, while performing at major festivals such as Coachella and Bonnaroo.
Their reinterpretation of “Lane Boy” bridges the worlds of alternative rock and modern electronic music, highlighting both artists’ willingness to experiment while honoring one of Twenty One Pilots’ most recognizable tracks.
With its blend of soaring melodies, reggae influences, bass-heavy production, and infectious groove, Asher Shashaty and Matisyahu’s version of “Lane Boy“ offers a fresh perspective on a modern classic, arriving on SoundCloud on July 7.
