Jay Wikid’s crafty bass lines will turn your insides out and have you grinding before you know it. His musical recipes blend infectious hiphop rhythms with light sprinkles of glitchy fun – smothered with a topping of bassline warfare. Five years ago, the Canadian producer was chosen by Bassnectar as his protege; their first collaborative release, “Select Frequency”, was the 1 Hip Hop track on Beatport for over 3 weeks and subsequently licensed to MTV, where it continues to rack up international plays. Jay also works under the alias “Ghetto Blastaz” in collaboration with Colorado native Jantsen. His recent collaboration with Opiuo, “Panty Slingshot”, was released on An-ten-nae’s latest Acid Crunk compilation and took the Beatport charts by storm. Expect fast-paced hip hop and dancehall breaks, overdriven glitchy crunk and electrozested zipper basslines from this hard-hitting duo. Jay’s enthusiasm immediately ignites any dancefloor – watch him throb and bob, energetically dancing along with his crowd, as he twists and warps his wompy style productions. Whatever he’s playing, you can count on Jay to keep it squishy, glitchy and sexy all at the same time. Straight rowdy! Jay’s also played alongside The Glitch Mob, Bassnectar, Breakbeat Buddha, and Vibesquad .
