MONSTER ENERGY OUTBREAK TOUR ANNOUNCES “AMPLIFIED” EVENT SERIES

2023 has been a year of firsts for the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour, fresh off their first nationwide Latin tour with rising Trap/Reggaeton sensation, Mariah Angeliq, today they've announced the debut of Monster Energy Outbreak Tour: AMPLIFIED, an extension of the popular, genre-spanning tour series.

OUTBREAK TOUR: AMPLIFIED TICKETS HERE

'AMPLIFIED' will feature 3 bonafide dance music headliners - GHASTLY , BOOGIE T.RIO x Manic Focus, and LEVEL UP as part of a singular EDM tour series which will give fans the opportunity to win amplified experiences - ranging from VIP passes to watch the show side stage and pre-show soundcheck access to personal meet & greets with individual photos, autographed merchandise, and more!  

Multi-genre artist GHASTLY, known for his continuously evolving musical sound and discography that spans a multitude of genres, burst onto the scene as a solo artist when he produced the high-profile collaboration with Lil Jon and Mija, titled “Crank It,” on Skrillex’s world-famous record label, OWSLA. In 2022, GHASTLY released his highly anticipated sophomore album, Haunted Haus which showcased his unique take on both house and future bass, and debuted in the top 5 Dance albums on Apple Music with smash hits including “Smoke” with Madalen Duke and “Fangs” with ALRT. 

BOOGIE T. RIO is a live band that consists of Boogie T on vocals/guitar/keys, longtime musical cohort Frank 'Animal Drums' Castro on drums, and New Orleans-based musical virtuoso Andriu ‘Yano’ Yanovski on keyboard and synth bass. Lead vocalist Boogie T has risen to prominence in the bass music world as a producer and a touring DJ, performing at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Coachella, EDC, Electric Forest, and many more. BOOGIE T. RIO is the next phase in the evolution of Boogie T, with the band dropping their debut “Three For All” EP and first live performances in Summer 2018, followed by their “3Fall EP”, and subsequent 50+ city national tour in 2020.

The Manic Focus Band is the live instrument fusion of electronic music by John “JmaC” McCarten, a Denver-based producer with roots in funk, soul, and new-era hip-hop. A multi-dimensional artist with a rowdy style that spans across genres, Manic Focus fuses soulful blues with heavy-hitting bass, creating a tone that’s entirely his own. The Band include instrumentalist and producer Marvel Years on guitar joined with the legendary percussion of Colby Buckler (Marvel Years Trio, Emancipator Ensemble). JmaC and Manic Focus have had some incredible live performances at some of the most popular festivals and venues including Lollapalooza, Hulaween, North Coast Music Festival, Electric Forest, Bonnaroo, The Gorge Amphitheater in WA and numerous Red Rocks performances supporting Zhu, Emancipator, Pretty Lights and more.

Originally a battle DJ studying under the legendary Rob Swift, LEVEL UP later dove into music production after discovering dubstep. Since then, she has established herself as an artist at the crossroads of blending heavy and future bass, with her own flips of classic dance and emo anthems. Her live performances have captivated audiences at legendary venues such as Red Rocks, Lollapalooza, Electric Daisy Carnival Las Vegas, Bonnaroo, Lost Lands, Beyond Wonderland, Electric Forest, and Bass Canyon, to name a few.

Since launching in 2011, Monster Energy’s Outbreak Tour has been shaping music culture and breaking new artists, while being involved with many of today’s biggest names in music across Hip Hop, EDM, Country, Rock, Latin, and Comedy.

NGHTMRE AND BIG GIGANTIC ANNOUNCE DEBUT MUSICAL PROJECT AS ‘GIGANTIC NGHTMRE’

Following their past collaborative release “Like That” and iconic performances at EDC Las Vegas and Ultra Music Festival, renowned producer, DJ, and label owner NGHTMRE and acclaimed duo Big Gigantic have teamed up again as Gigantic NGHTMRE to announce their upcoming debut project and deliver the explosive lead single.

"Back For More" is set to ignite dancefloors and playlists worldwide, solidifying the members of Gigantic NGHTMRE as trailblazers in the electronic music scene, and is available now on all DSPs and streaming services HERE.

“Back For More” is a high-energy anthem that fuses NGHTMRE's signature bass-driven sound with the infectious melodies and live instrumentation that have become synonymous with Big Gigantic's electrifying performances. The lead single of Gigantic NGHTMRE’s upcoming debut EP immediately hooks listeners with catchy vocals and a triumphant saxophone before building into a heavy drop, and carries this positivity throughout with immaculate bass production. 

Gigantic NGHTMRE’s debut EP, slated for release later this year, follows their collaboration “Like That” from 2018 and promises to deliver an electrifying blend of their unique styles. The project boasts the cinematic production and sound design that has made NGHTMRE a dance music titan, as well as the impressive instrumentation that makes Big Gigantic truly unique live performers. In addition to their collaborative project, Gigantic NGHTMRE will be embarking on a series of highly anticipated performances, building on past sets at EDC Las Vegas, Rowdytown IX at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and Ultra Music Festival. Upcoming performances include Shambhala Festival in Canada and a headline show at New York City’s iconic venue, Brooklyn Mirage, and will feature state-of-the-art new production and captivating visuals.

 “I remember discovering Big Gigantic’s music while wandering around as a fan at Camp Bisco in 2012! I got the chance to collaborate with them in 2018 and it was a no brainer! Once we dropped ‘like that’ we got the opportunity to play some of the biggest festivals around the US and they’ve been some of the best memories I’ve had so far in music. We finally found time to write music together this year and we are so so proud of how this music is sounding. So stoked to share it with the world!!” - NGHTMRE

 NGHTMRE, who has been a driving force in the industry for the past seven years, released his debut full-length album DRMVRSE in 2022. Created over four years, DRMVRSE is a masterfully cohesive fictional anthology involving a Neurotech company that discovers a sonic frequency called Unsound, which leads one through gateways to other physical planes of existence, known as the “DRMVRSE.” Add in large amounts of DMT, portal jumping, and epic battles all seen via eight long form music video vignettes and it provided one of the most imaginative and sonically pristine audio-visual, psychedelic-sci fi album experiences of the year. The project’s singles include “Fall Into Me” with SLANDER featuring Dylan Matthew, and the high octane trap single, “Trials” featuring IDK, alongside other tracks with Zeds Dead, Oliver Tree, UPSAHL and more.

 “Tyler and I got this idea for a song after one of our shows that has sax and bass on the drop and we added this sick vocal to it. It’s a song that really blends our two styles together and I really love the way it turned out.” - Big Gigantic

 Meanwhile, Big Gigantic continues to captivate audiences with their dynamic fusion of live instrumentation and electronic music. After emerging in 2009, they first amplified their message of light on their full length project, Brighter Futurein 2016. The duo's infectious energy and genre-bending sound have earned them a dedicated fanbase and performances on renowned stages around the world where they perform fan favorites like “All of Me” featuring Logic & Rozes and “The Little Things” featuring Angela McCluskey. Most recently, the dance veterans released the infectious song “Keep on Movin” together with Cloudchord.
