London-based newcomer DJ Ellivate, who takes her alias from her name Ellie combined with her mission to elevate people through music, has recently been making an impact in the music scene. She’s strongly driven by the positive power of music to help people overcome difficulties and its ability to transport listeners to another dimension, using her tracks to spread joy to those who hear them.
She first turned to music during a challenging period in her life, and it quickly became her creative outlet. Drawing inspiration from a range of iconic electronic artists including Armin Van Buuren, KC Lights and David Guetta, she’s crafted her own unique sound. Bringing us a taste of that sound, she shares her brand new single titled “Toxic Bass,” an EDM cut brimming with infectious energy and uplifting dance vibes.
The track kicks off with a blend of clapping hi hats and intricate synth shots soon propelled with punch of a kick drum. Fluttering synth tones introduce melodic leads before the rumbling bass line slides into the mix and the track truly takes hold. The top end is stripped away, leaving behind a deep and driving sound that forms the foundation of the song.
With multiple switch ups between the moody bass sections and playful airy vibes with shimmering synths and spacey vocal sample flourishes, “Toxic Bass” constantly evolves through its many twists and turns. Grooving rhythms, dynamic synth work and superb sound design all collide on this energising and instantly memorable outing.
Driven by the ever-present beat, “Toxic Bass” is a slick addition to the London dance music scene from an exciting new artist who’s here to make her mark on dance floors and airwaves across the UK and beyond.
With this track, DJ Ellivate serves up over 5 minutes of pure dance music bliss and stakes her claim as a must-watch rising talent. Melting together her blend of influences with her astute understanding of how to build and release tension within a track makes this artist a thrilling prospect who’s sure to continue going from strength to strength with each new move.
