G-Rex

Although the origins of G-REX can be dated back to 2015, 2019 was certainly the biggest year yet for Detroit native producer, Jake Sweeney. His brand of high energy trap and bass fused with sinister dubstep sound design became a recognizable staple in bass music as he earned the respect and support of his peers and leaders in the scene.

In September 2018 he released one of the biggest bass music tracks of the year, "Babatunde," as a collaboration with friend and fellow bass music phenom, PEEKABOO, on Liquid Stranger's record label, WAKAAN. He has since released two solo EPs, a remix EP including an almost equally well received VIP of "Babatunde," collaborations with Ghastly, YOOKiE, and TYNAN, and even an official remix for Excision.

On the touring front, G-REX made his first major run as support on Liquid Stranger's 36 date INFINITY TOUR January through March of 2019 while many experienced him live on massive stages at festivals such as HARD Summer, Shambhala, Bass Canyon, Lost Lands, and WAKAAN Festival. He even spent some time down under touring Australia and New Zealand and finished off the year with a co-headline tour with ZEKE BEATS to promote their collaboration "Purple Haze" which came out in October on Zeds Dead's Deadbeats imprint.

2020 will see G-REX on select dates for Excision's "The Evolution" tour, the release of his third EP, and a handful of singles including official remixes and collaborations with major players in the bass music scene.

While many continue to regurgitate the same stale sounds, G-REX is here to usher in a new era of cold-blooded bass.
