Denver’s Mersiv and Nashville’s Effin are rising stars in the bass music scene. Mersiv is known for his emotive soundscapes and intricate sound design, while Effin combines vintage sounds with modern techniques. Their latest collaboration, “Belong To Me,” perfectly blends their unique styles and is now available on Bassrush Records.
“Belong To Me” is a powerful bass single, marked by spiraling synths and captivating vocal hooks that create a mesmerizing atmosphere. The lead vocal, influenced by rock, pairs with rap samples to add a gritty edge. Driving drums and supersonic risers set the stage before launching listeners into a new dimension. The bass-heavy drops showcase a mix of fluttering sub-bass, clattering percussion, laser-like effects, and intricate sound design. An emotive break reintroduces the cinematic feel of the intro, pulling at the listener’s emotions with the namesake vocals. The second drop feels like a high-speed journey through the galaxy, and the echoed vocal outro fades away like a spacecraft drifting into the abyss.
Effin shared his vision for the track, saying, “Mersiv and I aimed to create a pure 50/50 blend of our styles, mixing old-school sounds with modern, punchy production. This track hits you with a wall of sound and has been a live favorite!”
Mersiv added, “I’ve been a fan of Effin for a couple of years, and after commenting on one of his posts about his snares, he suggested a collaboration. Now we’re excited to release ‘Belong to Me!'”
Effin, a Nashville producer, has been making waves in the bass scene with his versatile sound, ranging from dubstep to trap, melodic bass, and more. He’s set for a busy festival season with performances at Bass Camp, Bass Canyon, and Lost Lands, and will support Tape B on his upcoming Fall Tour. “Belong To Me” follows Effin’s recent label debut “Take Two,” which received support from Illenium, Deathpact, NGHTMRE, SLANDER, Doctor P, CRaymak, and others.
Mersiv, based in Denver, has solidified his place in the dance music community with his “pretty loud dark” bass music. His emotive and complex sound design has gained support from Zeds Dead, HEYZ, Liquid Stranger, Benzi, UKF, and more. Fresh off performances at EDC Las Vegas and Forbidden Kingdom, Mersiv is set to appear at Lollapalooza, FVDED In The Park, Dancefestopia, and his own Stonehenge show at the Caverns.
“Belong To Me” bridges the gap between nostalgic charm and futuristic excitement, hitting a sweet spot that bass enthusiasts will love.
