Dirt Monkey, the brainchild of Patrick Megeath, stands as a paragon of innovation in the electronic music domain. With a sound that breaks barriers, he’s known for effortlessly blending electronic music genres from dubstep to house and bass. This audio alchemist not only captivates listeners with his tracks like “Warp Drive,” “Colossal,” and “Lift Off” but also continues to be a magnetic presence at prominent festivals, EDC Las Vegas and Electric Forest being notable mentions.
The recent drop of MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 1 LP on October 18, 2023, has only magnified Dirt Monkey’s prowess in the industry. The lead single, “Ignite” featuring Christian Acamo, set the stage for a multi-genre 12-track masterpiece. From the chest-thumping wobbles of “Reset Button” to the pulsating rhythms of “Bounce Heavy,” the LP promises aural journeys unlike any other. The collaborative essence of the album, featuring artists like Shanna Raymond, J Nolan, and the Ragga Twins, adds layers to an already deep and diverse sonic palette.
2023 has been a defining year for Dirt Monkey. After a rousing set at the Mission Ballroom and a monumental co-headline Full Circle Tour with Jantsen, he dominated festival stages from Lost Lands to Bonnaroo. And the excitement isn’t tapering off. As fans resonate with the vibrations of MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 1, they eagerly await the deep dubstep wonders of MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 2, set to drop on October 25, 2023.
In Dirt Monkey’s world, boundaries are meant to be transcended, and that’s just what he’s done on this release.
