In one of the most anticipated bass collaborations of the year, superstar duo Ganja White Night partners with fast-rising phenom Tape B on “Ganja Tape.” It has been teased by both artists in recent sets and combines Ganja White Night‘s signature “wobble” sound with Tape B‘s unique sound design. “Ganja Tape” showcases the best that these talented artists have to offer. The vocal before the first drop – “Yo Tape B! Yes, Ganja” – has already captivated dubstep fans across the nation, fueling the buzz around this release. This track capitalizes on the momentum that these artists have built in 2024. Tape B is coming off the most high-profile release of his life – an electrifying, genre-blending collaboration with dance music icons John Summit and Subtronics titled “Gas Pedal Remix.” Meanwhile, Ganja White Night is riding the high from a summer of their own curated events, including a two-night run at the iconic Hampton Coliseum following their highly successful 2023 album release, “Unity.” With Ganja White Night and Tape B set to continue playing the song out as they tour over the next several months, “Ganja Tape” is poised to make a late push for the bass music song of the year.
Ganja White Night
Growing up in the small town of Mons, Belgium, the duo was in a way sheltered from the music industry of the United States, allowing them to create a unique sound of their own. With their musical roots ranging from early UK bass and reggae vibes, Ganja White Night has twisted together their influences and spit out something truly fresh and their own. After a decade-plus deep discography, Ganja White Night struck a chord with their 2016 Mr. Wobble LP release, cementing their iconic Wobble sound. Centered around the idea of creating their own mini animated universe, the duo teamed up with Ebo, a famous Belgian street artist, to bring their vision alive. With the debut of Wobble Master & LFO Requiem full animated music videos in 2016, the story of Mr. Wobble was born. Subsequent albums – which continued to tell Mr. Wobble‘s adventurous tale through Ganja White Night‘s iconic Wobble sound – included The Origins, The One, Dark Wobble, and their most recent album, Unity. Their significant collaborations to date include bass-music powerhouses like Zeds Dead, Subtronics, Slander, Liquid Stranger, and long-time collaborator Boogie T. Drawing similarities to the visual aspect of the Gorillaz and their unique style of telling a story through their music, the duo plans to continue exploring their own universe.
Tape B
Tape B, born Kemal Berk Alkanat, is a dynamic force in today’s electronic music scene, merging the nostalgic vibes of old-school dubstep with contemporary bass music and hip-hop. Born in Turkey and raised in the US from the age of three, Tape B brings a distinctive sound that captivates with a blend of nostalgia and modernity, termed “Old School x New School.” His musical journey began at the University of Central Florida, influenced by early 2000s hip-hop and electronic pioneers like UKF and The Glitch Mob. His career took a professional turn after a revelatory experience at the Lost Lands Music Festival in 2019. Tape B‘s rise to prominence was fueled by viral SoundCloud mixes and dynamic live performances, including his iconic “Yo, Tape B” tag, which has become a recognizable call throughout modern clubland and festivals. Achieving significant traction with remixes and original tracks, including the standout “Trippy Land” with Mersiv and Juicy J, Tape B has redefined expectations within bass music. As of 2024, Tape B achieved sellouts of every headline since December 2023, including rapid ticket sales at Denver‘s Mission Ballroom and New York‘s Great Hall. His introduction of Tape B Block Parties in 2024, as recently showcased across Texas with two sold-out events, has brought classic and modern dubstep brilliance to the forefront, further cementing his influence in the scene. In August 2024, Tape B released a genre-blending collaboration with superstar producers John Summit and Subtronics. Tape B remains a vibrant and influential figure in electronic music. His commitment to innovation, community, and joy through music continues to drive his rapidly ascending career.
