Borgore
With Parker, Trini, Star Monster.
Perfect for Halloween, there’s something sinister and insidious in the hypnotizing dance music of Borgore. The Israeli-born producer, thoroughly in the school of dubstep artists such as Skrillex and RL Grime, adds metal influences to the genre, creating a musical style that he calls “Gorestep.” Mixing thrill with fear, his style could be described as a horror movie set inside a nightclub. Check out collaborations with emcees G Eazy and Juicy J for a taste of Borgore at his best. With Parker, Trini, Star Monster.
press release: As a fearless boundary buster, Borgore has deconstructed the stereotype of what a musician should be by blending his bass, trance, hip hop and dubstep influences with his classical music background.
Borgore is at the top of his game, his decade-long scroll of accomplishments include heading up his own successful label, Buygore Records, headlining sold out shows to record-breaking crowds, a weekly internationally syndicated SiriusXM Radio series ‘The Borgore Show’, and a milieu of collaborative bangers alongside G-Eazy, Miley Cyrus, Waka Flocka Flame and Diplo.quid

Star Monster is the new electronic act from Madison Based musician, producer Phil Pharaoh.
After taking over Butch Vig's Smart Studios in Madison this year, where hit albums such as Nirvana's Nevermind and Smashing Pumpkins' Gish and self-titled debut was recorded, Phil is launching a project steeped in EDM bass music and cutting edge production. Donned “New School” by Butch when the two met shortly after acquiring the studio this spring, Phil is bringing razor sharp high tech musical movements to the studio thru the dark Bass Dance music of Star Monster. Starting off his career on the extreme opposite side of the spectrum as founder early folk blues, punk band The Dirt Bros that had success with label Fat Possum records and Black Keys representatives, Phil doesn’t see the two genres as conflicting. “ When I started making heavy punk/pop/blues I actually wanted my guitar to sound like razors shooting around. The basis of the Dirt Bros was in fife and drum blues…which is the start of hip hop and dance music. Whether your talking about techno or rap the beat falls into the same patterns and there's the same body movement you feel when listening. Ive always been interested in making people dance to the point of release. That's what gets me off musically.”
