Ephwurd ft. JVST SAY YES - Phunky Beats
After a insane summer and festival season, aces of bass Ephwurd are blazing full steam ahead into fall with the launch of their own record label and its first track release. Eph'd Up Records is Datsik and Bais Haus's latest venture in expanding their popular Ephwurd brand, which they created from a desire to bring original music to their fans faster while staying true to their own sound. Their first release on Eph'd Up Records is "Phunky Beats" in collaboration with JVST SAY YES, featuring groovy, electro synths juxtaposed by mechanical basslines. The track is a modern, dance-floor friendly take on the notorious vocals "if you really like to rock those funky beats" and will certainly be a staple during the coming months. In a message to fans, Ephwurdexpressed their excitement over their new imprint and release on Eph'd Up Records.
"As artists who enjoy a broad range of music going from the most hype tunes to the most chill, we wanted to be able to freely give music to our fans without the time constraints of a label. Sometimes we finish a song and it won't be months until you, the fans, get to hear what we have been working on and its such a huge bummer. Eph'd Up Records gives us the freedom to give you folks music when we want and when you deserve it, because life is happening now and it's not set on some schedule. With that said, we are launching the label with a tune of ours that we've been dropping for well over a year now and it always goes off! Ladies and gentlemen, we give you Phunky Beats."
This past summer, Ephwurd was busy touring the US and Canada, including performing headlining slots at the EDC Las Vegas main stage, Lollapalooza, Shambhala, and the Global Dance Festival. Even with such a packed schedule, they still managed to find time to remix GRiZand Big Gigantic's "Good Times Roll" and team up with iHeart/Evolution to launch their Eph'd Up Radio. Now that the duo is back in the studio, expect them to heat up the fall and winter months with new releases every few weeks! As for live performances, this winter they are embarking on an Australian tour from the Sunshine Coast to Sydney and then capping it all off back in the States with a headlining gig at LA's the Belasco Theater. Catch them on tour to experience their combination of insane production dexterity and explosive performance expertise.
