“technically, it would take a lot of sound for you to ‘feel the bass.’” it’s cringe but this one hits anyways, esp after covid

classic melodic dubstep, arp into buildup, epic, absolutely crazy live–it’s funny what triggers our monkey brains

nurture is a beautiful album in so many ways: its sound design has spawned a genre, the lyrics are iconic, so on so forth

the denver duo producing beautiful work as usual, can definitely hear the STS influence
Navigating - Auralen, Slyleaf, WYNDR (2019)

Dreams Pt. II (Nightcore) - Lost Sky (2018)
the key shift to the nightcore version really brings this song up, I think (also Lost Sky does some really epic stuff)

the intro to this is instantly recognizable somehow, song also feels really smooth
atmospheric - breathtaking - i am a manta ray
