Part I
Bass Temple
“Midtempo has been such a fun genre for me to produce and explore along with my other styles. This track starts off with a nice riff to groove to before transitioning into a bass face worthy drop section.” -Bass Temple

Flora Noise
“I spent the whole day with the love of my life – my muse – my everything. We spent the day in the rose gardens near lake Harriet in Minneapolis as I was constantly enamored at our resilience and love through the heavier growing pains of life. Holding her hand and seeing her smile was the safest thing I knew. I was so inspired by the day that I grabbed my laptop and started sound designing – I recorded her laugh and put them all together behind a nice fat beat. The song wrote itself through Love.” -Flora Noise
Minnesota’s Flora.noise has been highlighted by a DJ MAG feature on my Sliimzos Recording Release in 2024, along with Sicaria spinning my tracks at the esteemed BASS COAST FEST, my career has seen support from industry luminaries like Skream, Slimzee, and VEIL, fostering a community of inspired creatives. Through collaboration and friendship with talented musicians, we continue to fuel the creative momentum, exploring hybrid sounds crafted from global influences, distorted breakbeats, and emotive basslines, aiming to create a space where curiosity thrives and emotions are explored. Rooted in a belief in the unifying power of music, I strive to extend that energy beyond the arts community, taking action to address global human struggles through awareness, acceptance, and positive change.

Dystracted
“Two Americans start a duo after meeting in Australia. Now we live apart in both countries furthering the Dystracted sound. We are always exploring our creativity through different genres and bpm’s. This song was the result of an attempt at a 4-to-the-floor house track, which obviously… we got a bit Dystracted.”
