Italian electronic producer and artist msft has found his groove, and with it is ushering in a new wave of bass music.

Born and raised in a small town outside of Venice, Italy, msft started making music influenced by European electronic music culture in 2014. “I grew up listening to OG progressive house and electro house artists such as Hardell and the old heads, and used to dream about European festivals such as Tomorrowland,” says msft. Emulating festival acts, he initially focused his production style on anthemic melodies, hooks, and catchy rhythms before shifting gears to dive into bass music. “It didn't take me long to realize I wanted to challenge myself into making more complex rhythms and more complex sound design,” says msft. “I transitioned away from progressive house and electro house music to bass music, and that's when I started msft as a project in 2016.”

Here's how msft describes his latest track, “with me”:

This song has had a fun development, I started by writing chords and messing around with bpms to see in which area the break loop I made performed the best. After creating the first section I decided to completely switch the vibe and go for something heavier. Being able to combine melodic elements with more ""modern"" bass sounds has been super fun.

The structure of the song aims to go straight to the point of having that vocal hook as glue between the first and the second section.

-- This is the first track from HIGH FREQUENCY Volume 1 — a compilation album curated by NOISE.
