Introducing MP3 SELECTS, our weekly rundown of new music releases and our updated playlists on Spotify. Check out this week’s round up below:
Super Future, Wreckno — “Bassline”
Super Future and queer electronic icon Wreckno have joined forces to release the new single, “Bassline,” the first off Super Future’s forthcoming Crimson EP. Out via Rezz’s label HypnoVizion, the track opens with a crescendo of whimsical synths that showcases a dynamic blend of Super Future’s melodic tendencies and Wreckno’s sassy, bass-heavy style. True to its title, the track skyrockets with overzealous, zippering basslines as Wreckno’s hard-hitting vocals rap, “I’ve been busy making them go crazy with the bassline.”
Super Future is the latest to join Rezz’s label imprint HypnoVizion, following recent releases by Digital Ethos, EDDIE, ANTAGONÏZER, and sfam.

BIJOU, Drezo — “Goons”
Back with the jump off, BIJOU and Drezo reunite once again with the release of their new track, “Goons.” The two producers share a deep history, stemming from their days as Arizona locals and DJs who worked together at a promo company. Teaming up, BIJOU became the first to open some of Drezo’s shows and the strong connection led to the idea of collaborating in the studio. A long time in the making, the collaboration sees the pair of producers conjure a dynamic fusion of dark, bass-heavy house with intricate production full of driving beats, intense basslines, and an overall energetic atmosphere.

Kasbo — “The Way You Had Me”
Multi-faceted Swedish artist Kasbo has officially returned with his first original solo release in three years titled, “The Way You Had Me.” Out via ODESZA’s Foreign Family Collective, the release marks a new sonic journey for the producer as he explores the cathartic nature of dancefloor-driven music. The new track holds a punchy yet minimal groove, locking listeners into a mesmerizing spell while giving space to the spine-tingling melodic elements including some delightfully tight guitar licks.
Returning to the studio and stage, Kasbo will be direct support for Jai Wolf’s ‘Blue Babu’ tour, which will see him performing at iconic American venues such as the Brooklyn Mirage, Mission Ballroom, Echostage, The Greek Theatre, and more.
Autograf — “Runaway”
Who is listening? This is the underlying question poised by LA-based house duo Autograf as they explore in their highly anticipated sophomore album, Affirmations. Out via Armada Music, the project delves into themes of mindfulness, meditation, and self-affirmation through contemporary house sub-genres. The album’s opening track “Runaway” sets the tone of the album, encouraging listeners to literally “run away” from limiting their beliefs and manifest your ultimate self, one more powerful than ever imagined.
The “Affirmations” tour is currently underway, encouraging fans nationwide to set their affirmations and change the story in their mind for the better. The duo will perform at iconic venues and music festivals such as Head in the Clouds Los Angeles, and ending the run in their hometown of Chicago.
Gammer, RUNN — “Roots”
Gammer and RUNN have teamed up on their latest happy hardcore-inspired festival anthem, “Roots.” Released on Monstercat, this single is the perfect fit for its encompassing label, promoting a powerful message of unity and collective positivity through music. The balance of Gammer’s soothing piano progressions and electrifying drops blend seamlessly with RUNN’s chilling vocal delivery. Going beyond the realm of dance music, this hit will also be synced with the popular online game Rocket League.
