Darby and Strobez collide in explosive fashion on “Lose My Mind,” a breakbeat-driven adrenaline rush dropping May 30 via NIGHTMODE.
Crafted for pure dancefloor chaos, “Lose My Mind” opens with sweeping orchestral drama and an emotionally charged vocal hook before erupting into a blistering storm of mechanical breakbeats, warped basslines, and glitched-out textures. Balancing cinematic finesse with raw rhythmic force, the track nods to ’90s rave energy while dialing into today’s cutting-edge bass music sound design.
The track reflects a creative high for both artists. Darby, hailing from Naarm (Melbourne), continues to forge his own eclectic lane in underground club music, with prior releases like his 2023 PARTY EP and single “NONSTOP” earning praise from UKF, Iggy Magazine, and Find Your Sounds. His style blends elements of bassline, breaks, and leftfield club music, with a constantly evolving signature that thrives on surprise.
Strobez, based in San Francisco, brings his own high-impact sensibility to the collaboration—fusing trap, dubstep, and breaks into a unique hybrid style that’s landed him collaborations with Viperactive and TWONSKi, as well as co-signs from heavyweights like RL Grime, Alison Wonderland, and NGHTMRE.
“Lose My Mind” is an unrelenting rush of manic energy and melodic tension—designed to disorient and thrill in equal measure. It’s a track that captures the feeling of losing control and loving every second of it.
“‘Lose My Mind’ feels like spiraling out, in a good way. It’s manic, loud, and kinda like what happens when you let the pace of everything take over… I didn’t fight it, I just let it explode.” — Darby
“I’ve been a big Darby fan for the longest time, so it was only right that we finally made something together… We wanted to make a record out of the best ‘90s breaks tropes and we couldn’t be more stoked to release it with NIGHTMODE!” — Strobez
With its razor-sharp production and fearless energy, “Lose My Mind” is a peak-hour weapon that pushes the breaks revival into thrilling new territory—proof that the genre’s past and future are colliding with explosive results.
