Join us on Friday, May 22, 2026 in the Y Afterhours BASSment - (featuring PK sound) - for a special night of BASS. Rhelax 007 – Love
“License to feel” RELEASE PARTY
There are moments in life when words fall short—when emotion moves too fast, too deep, too quietly to be named. Rhelax 007 – Love lives in that space. It isn’t just a mix; it’s a permission slip. A reminder that feeling—fully, honestly, without apology—is not a weakness, but a return to something essential.
Built from fragments of light and shadow, this multi-genre journey doesn’t shy away from darkness—it walks straight through it. Each transition feels intentional, like turning a page in a story that refuses to stay in one genre. Ambient textures dissolve into heavy basslines, euphoric melodies rise out of tension, and moments of stillness linger just long enough to let the heart catch up. It’s an alchemy of sound—transforming ache into warmth, chaos into clarity, distance into connection.
“License to feel” isn’t just a tagline—it’s the core philosophy. In a world that often teaches us to suppress, distract, or numb, this mix invites the opposite. It asks you to sit with the feeling, to move with it, to let it breathe. Whether it’s love lost, love found, or love still searching for a name, every emotion has a place here.
Rhelax 007 – Love doesn’t tell you what to feel—it creates the space for you to remember that you can.
Because sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do… is feel it all.
LSN
LSN, hailing from the northwest of the United Kingdom, have played a key role in the evolution of leftfield bass music. Known for pushing minimal weight with intricate, technical design, the duo have spent over a decade breaking the mould—consistently stepping outside convention to craft avant-garde, non-linear low-end sound. With support from scene innovators and respected peers, LSN have moved through multiple stages of evolution, both sonically and physically. Two albums deep and currently working on a fresh collection of work they continue to shape and refresh the blueprint of forward-thinking bass music.
Over the past decade, LSN has published an impressive and diverse discography, featuring vocalists such as Grammy award winner Flowdan, poet and T.S Elliot award winner Roger Robinson, Mobo winner Bobby Vylan, multidisciplinary artist and experimental composer Gwen Sion, Warrior Queen and Rider Shafique. LSN has released on prolific labels, including Slimzos Recordings, Manuka, Deep Dark and Dangerous, Artikal, Sentry Records, Dungeon Beats, Hardcore Energy, Albion Collective and Uprise Audio, and co-produced or remixed tracks with Synkro, Joe Nice, Leon Switch, Cimm, Khiva, Youngsta, Drezza, J:Kenzo, Truth and Von D. They also perform mixes on Rinse FM, Subtle Radio and Getdarker for shows hosted by Mystic State, Hijinx, Neffa T and others. Their latest single, “Valleys,” released on J:Kenzo’s Artikal Music UK, gained notable support and earned placement on Vanguards of Electronic—a playlist highlighting the cutting edge of IDM and progressive club music. Now based in British Columbia, LSN enter a new chapter. Surrounded by the raw landscapes of Vancouver Island, they are deep in exploration— channeling environment, isolation, and movement into the next phase of their sound.

Rhesus
(Not Rhesus Pieces. Not Rhesus Christ. It’s ya boi — RHESUS.) A Métis artist born on Treaty 4 territory.
RHESUS tells stories through hip-hop-infused, low-frequency bass music.
Operating between 80–165 BPM, his sound spans baile, dub, jungle, jersey club, breaks, and UKG — always rhythm-driven and narrative-focused.
With a deep respect for progressive culture and sound system culture, RHESUS crafts sets that are both technically sharp and emotionally charged. His style blends precision mashups, dynamic transitions, and unexpected turns, guiding audiences through an immersive spectrum of drums, synths, and bass designed to move both body and spirit.
Emerging from the Saskatchewan scene alongside DVDB Crew, Swerve Collective, and Dollhaus, RHESUS earned recognition as the 2022 Womp Music Festival DJ Contest Champion. Since then, he has become a sunrise set staple at West Coast festivals and has performed across Canada with multiple collectives.
In Spring 2023, he joined Edmonton’s United Bass Kollective, and by 2025 cemented himself as a supporting artist for Canada’s True Rhythm.
RHESUS doesn’t just play music — he builds momentum, tells stories, and makes you work for it on the dance floor.
