After more than a year of anticipation from fans across the bass music community, Of The Trees and Tape B have officially unveiled their first-ever collaboration, “Brackish.” Arriving June 4 across all streaming platforms, the release unites two of the most influential and rapidly ascending names in modern bass music, blending their distinct creative identities into one of the genre’s most anticipated tracks of the year.
Long before its official release, “Brackish” had already achieved near-mythical status among fans. The collaboration spent the past year circulating as one of bass music’s most sought-after unreleased IDs, becoming a defining moment in both artists’ live sets. Whether appearing at headline performances or major festival stages, the track consistently generated intense audience reactions and widespread online discussion, with fans eagerly awaiting confirmation of its release.
The collaboration arrives on the heels of the duo’s celebrated back-to-back performance at Bonnaroo 2025, a set that quickly became one of the festival’s most talked-about bass music moments. Their chemistry behind the decks further fueled speculation surrounding a potential collaboration, highlighting how naturally their individual styles complement one another.
Sonically, “Brackish” represents the perfect intersection of both artists’ musical worlds. The track combines the immersive atmosphere and nature-inspired sound design that have become synonymous with Of The Trees alongside the nostalgic bass influences and explosive energy that define Tape B’s productions. Swampy low-end textures, cinematic tension, and deep, rolling basslines create a soundscape that feels equally expansive and intimate, delivering a collaboration that remains authentic to both artists while pushing their creative partnership forward.
The release lands during a pivotal year for each producer. Of The Trees continues expanding the universe surrounding his acclaimed Moonglade Park era while simultaneously bringing his newly launched Park Service Tour to audiences across North America. He also prepares for the return of Camp Alderwild in Telluride, further strengthening the immersive community-driven experiences that have become central to his artistic vision.
Meanwhile, Tape B enters one of the most significant periods of his career. Following the announcement of his Summer Program amphitheater tour alongside Levity, the bass music star continues to sell out headline shows across the continent while preparing for his debut headline appearance at Sacred Acre Festival. His rapid ascent has solidified his position as one of the most in-demand live acts in electronic music.
Together, Of The Trees and Tape B represent a new generation of bass music headliners who have built devoted audiences through intentional world-building, authentic fan engagement, and forward-thinking sound design rather than simply chasing trends. Collectively, the pair command millions of monthly streams and have become fixture names across the global festival circuit, with appearances at premier events including Electric Forest, Lost Lands, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and EDC Las Vegas.
The timing of “Brackish” further amplifies its impact, arriving shortly after the opening weekend of Of The Trees’ Park Service Tour in Chicago and adding momentum to what is already shaping up to be a landmark year for both artists.
More than simply the release of a long-awaited fan favorite, “Brackish” captures a defining moment in the evolution of contemporary bass music. By combining immersive storytelling, emotional depth, genre-fluid production, and festival-scale energy, Of The Trees and Tape B deliver a collaboration that reflects where the genre is today—and where it is headed next.
