Seven Lions and Jason Ross team up for their seventh collab, ‘Darkness‘. The uptempo track blends golden age Progressive House, Trance, Techno, and Psytrance with dancefloor-ready drops and soaring melodies. Fan favorite Dance songwriter and producer GG Magree sings instantly catchy vocals and uplifting choruses. The release comes around Jason Ross’ new headline series Atlas, which features curated shows at venues including the Hollywood Palladium, Terminal 5, and The Midway SF.
Seven Lions
Washington-based producer Seven Lions has never had an issue pushing the boundaries of Electronic music to fulfill his creative vision. Catching a break after winning a Beatport remix contest in 2012 with his dubstep-focused version of Above & Beyond’s ‘You Got To Go‘, Seven Lions, born Jeff Montalvo, garnered support from the likes of Anjunabeats, Casablanca, OWSLA, Viper Recordings, Republic Records, and Monstercat over the past ten years.
After releasing on a plethora of labels, Seven Lions created Ophelia Records in 2018 which has since become a leading independent label in the Melodic Bass subgenre. Since its emergence only four years ago, the label has already made an imprint in the Dance music scene having been voted Dancing Astronaut’s Label Of The Year in 2021, releasing multiple #1 iTunes Dance albums and hosting festival stage takeovers and showcases around the country. His productions have seen stages at world-renowned festivals including Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, Electric Zoo, and HARD.
Jason Ross
Jason Ross is one of Dance music’s premier acts, while simultaneously being one of the scene’s more elusive figureheads. That’s not due to any fault of his productions, but rather, purely due to his versatility. Once a mainstay on the legendary Anjunabeats and a rising star of new-age Trance shepherded by Above & Beyond and company, Jason quickly outgrew the boundaries of four-to-floor grooves, expanding into the less finite space of broken beats and pop vocals of melodic bass.
A blossoming working relationship with melodic bass propagator Seven Lions led to genre-defining tracks like ‘Higher Love‘ and ‘Ocean‘, backed up by a beautiful, elongated, and gently weaving Trance discography featuring the likes of ‘Cairo‘, ‘Atlas‘, and his 2019 Anjunabeats EP, Rooms. The ability to weave the emotion and hypnosis of Trance into the more commercial grit of Melodic Bass has made Jason’s recent catalog uniquely his own. His unique multi-genre-tinged approach to production shines on genre-defining tracks like ‘Shelter‘, his Blanke collab ‘One More Day‘, his solo single ‘Wild Ones‘, and his Gryffin collab ‘After You‘, among others.
Ophelia
As the official record label of Melodic Dubstep leader Seven Lions, Ophelia Records is a label that promotes independent Dance music across a wide range of genres. In just a couple of years, Ophelia has become one of the hottest labels in Electronic music thanks to its tight-knit community and ability to connect fans of Melodic Bass, Dubstep, Trance, Psytrance, Drum & Bass, House, and beyond.
With over 200 catalog releases from acts such as SLANDER, Excision, Kill The Noise, MitiS, Jason Ross, NGHTMRE, Wooli, Trivecta, Blastoyz, Crystal Skies and Last Heroes, Ophelia has multiple #1 iTunes dance records and has been supported on the covers of mint and dance XL with additional playlisting on New Music Friday, Dance Rising, Bass Arcade and SiriusXM BPM. The label has also sold out showcases at Echostage, Avant Gardner and Red Rocks and hosted festival stage takeovers at Electric Zoo, Miami Music Week, Nocturnal Wonderland, and more.
