The Gud Vibrations name comes from the title of a track the two artists released from their join EP “Nuclear Bonds” in 2015, and would set the tone for the collaborative style with is powerful lyrics, upbeat melodies and hard-hitting breakdown. Soon after, NGHTMRE and SLANDER present: GUD VIBRATIONS became a fully-fledged tour that sold out 36 shows in North America. The collaboration took on a life of its own, spawning a radio show on SiriusXM where the two artists showcase their favorite new music, and even stage takeovers at major festivals. However, their biggest accomplishment is the launch of the GUD VIBRATIONS record label in 2018 with “Deathwish (feat fknsyd)” by Wavedash as their first release. The GUD VIBRATIONS name continues to appear at major festivals and will surely make bring some of the heaviest Bass on The Alchemy Tour.

NGHTMRE, aka Tyler Marenyi, first released several trap remixes and was soon signed to Diplo’s Mad Decent record label and released his track “Street.” He made a massive festival debut at EDC Las Vegas 2015.

The two legends behind SLANDER are Scott Land and Derek Andersen, and SLANDER is actually a mashup of their names – S(cott) LAN (and Derek) ANDER(sen). The duo met at UC Irvine and continue to create together at Icon Collective Music Production School in Burbank California. They first gained notoriety with their remixes of “We Like to Party” by Showtek and Above & Beyond’s “Love Is Not Enough” in 2014. They pioneered a subgenre that came to be known as “Heaven Trap” that beautifully mixes powerfully emotional melodies, soaring lyrics and massive Bass drops into unforgettable tracks. While their live sets often throw down some of the heaviest Bass at any festival, the duo continues to produce moving, passionate tracks like “First Time” with Seven Lions and Dabin, “All You Need to Know” with Gryffin, and “Potions” with Said The Sky and JT Roach.
