2023 has been an electrifying year for bass music, and Dirt Monkey fits right in with the latest album, “MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 1.” Dropped on October 18, it’s the kind of music that makes you wish you had a bigger pair of headphones, to say the least
Now, we’ve seen Patrick Megeath, aka Dirt Monkey, dive into a ton of genres over the years, but this album is something special. The lead single, “Ignite,” featuring Christian Acamo, sets the tone. It’s like a gateway, beckoning listeners into Dirt Monkey’s world where wobbly basslines meet fresh rhythms.
Collaborations bring in even more flavor. Shanna Raymond and J Nolan sprinkle their magic, ensuring that the album isn’t just about the sound itself, but also about voices that give life to the music. And let’s not forget those festival anthems that are baked in as well.
However, it’s not just about the collaborators or the festivals. It’s about the journey through the tracks, the ups and downs, the chill moments, and the ‘time to rage’ points as well. It’s this rollercoaster of sounds and emotions that sets “MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 1” apart.
As October 25 approaches, there’s already buzz about MYCELIUM SOUND PT. 2. But before diving into what’s next, do yourself a favor: plug in, turn up the volume, and let Dirt Monkey’s latest sonic trip take you places. It’s a journey worth taking.
