Doom Bass project ‘Antania’ tours Texas via NecroFlesh events
After two co-headline festivals, the Green Jelly Jam Fest and Trapt in the Desert Fest, Antania will be hitting the state of Texas to promote “The God Complex” release that drop’s January 5th 2024 via The Triad Recs. Their mini tour ends in New Orleans at Siberia.
Heralded as the bass music scene’s Slayer, Antania (epitaph or the goddess Hecate, meaning enemy of mankind) is a black, doom bass project from Joshua Tree CA that consists of Death/Bass Producer Dr Luna and blackened vocalist Kali Mortem (featured in the black metal book “Daughters of Darkness”). Antania creates black and doom metal out of bass music by wrapping distortion around saw and sub bass, they don’t sample or use any stringed instruments and Dr Luna creates bass lines with a microbrute and is sponsored by KAT Percussion. Dr Luna was a bass player and keyboard player in black metal bands and when he heard EDM calling their music brutal decided to create a bass music project that was truly “brutal” and he would bring the sound and style of “Metal” with him. Antania is completely original and within their short existence have already started headlining venues and festivals (be afraid of the dark and mechanismus, black Metal mass). Their demo release “Lividity ” featured a collaboration with Hocico’s ERK AIRCRAG and horrorcore queen Razakel.
Antania, recently signed to the Roman Label “The Triad Recs”, deliberately turned down a potentially lucrative deal with a larger label in Eastern Europe. The primary reason behind this rejection was the band’s unwavering commitment to retaining full creative control over their music. The larger label, in contrast, sought not only to influence the final outcome of Antania’s creativity but also aimed to dictate the trajectory of their marketing strategy.
In an era where artistic independence is highly valued, Antania’s choice to prioritize creative control over the allure of a bigger label speaks volumes about the band’s commitment to their craft. By aligning with “The Triad Recs,” Antania has not only secured a platform to showcase their musical prowess but has also found a supportive environment that respects their artistic integrity. Adding to the new label, Antania recently signed to “NecroFlesh Events”to help expand their vision.

AZSH rises through the storm with an unstoppable spirit in latest release “On My Way”
AZSH (pronounced “Ash”), a Miami-based dance pop soul artist, has a new single called “On My Way” that’s a declaration of strength rather than a typical song. Using her unique “Miami Pop” style, AZSH combines sultry vocals, emotional honesty, and cutting-edge production to create a moving song that speaks to people who feel let down, unsure, or as if their dreams have been put on hold. “On My Way,” is a reflective anthem with a smooth 110 BPM groove. Centered on resilience and personal evolution, it’s a soundtrack for the in-between moments perfect for listeners moving forward with purpose.
“On My Way” is all about not giving up. It captures the emotional weight of disappointment, getting through hard days, and the will to keep going no matter what. AZSH is honest about problems and turns them into strength, using each setback as a reason to grow. The song shows a quiet confidence that grows over time. It shows that change doesn’t happen all at once, it takes time, belief, and inner strength.
The track sound fits with AZSH’s artistic style. Her voice is warm and expressive, flowing perfectly over a smooth, soulful, and uplifting production. The music conveys a sense of movement, which aligns with the themes of progress and moving forward. This song works just as well when you’re alone, thinking about things, as it does when you’re listening to an uplifting playlist to improve your mood.
“On My Way” is an important part of AZSH’s growing story as an artist and storyteller. It represents freedom, change, and happiness, not as ideas, but as real things that come from hard work and determination. In “On My Way,” AZSH shows that being strong doesn’t mean failing, it means being able to bounce back after each failure. This song is for people who know they haven’t reached their goal yet but are sure they are making progress toward it.
