Tyler Mead, known professionally as Fairlane, emerges from Canada as a dynamic force within the dubstep community, marrying DJ sensibilities with the allure of guitar mastery. This burgeoning talent has now collaborated with Los Angeles’ esteemed rock ensemble, Point North, unveiling their dynamic single, “Not My Night.” Scheduled for release under the esteemed Monstercat Uncaged label on February 28th, the track is a nod to the punk rock sound of the early 2000s, enriched with contemporary electronic flair. The synergetic blend of Point North’s engaging vocals and Fairlane’s sophisticated audio engineering, interspersed with melodious bass, renders the song a staple for both festival-goers and punk rock aficionados.
Following Fairlane’s initial joint project with Silverstein titled “Take It Back,” “Not My Night” stands as a testament to the burgeoning genre of rocktronic, highlighted by a viral performance of the track by Fairlane himself. His journey in music has seen him creating official remixes for icons such as Rihanna and Ava Max, working with esteemed artists including SLANDER and Vanic, and amassing extensive streaming numbers. Fairlane has also shared stages with notable acts like ILLENIUM, Gryffin, and Wooli, showcasing his exceptional fusion of guitar and electronic music at major events and venues.
Point North, equally lauded for their achievements, have secured over half a billion streams and experienced significant success with their third album, “Prepare For Despair.” Their collaborations span the dance music realm, including work with Two Friends and Kayzo, and have toured with rock luminaries like Escape The Fate and Sleeping With Sirens, cementing their place in rock’s upper echelons.
Fairlane’s contributions to the rocktronic scene, especially with “Not My Night” and “Take It Back,” position him as a pioneering figure in the evolution of genre-blending music. As he prepares for further releases and tours in 2024, Fairlane is undeniably a rising star to watch.
