Bass Physics (also known as Arja Adair) and Maddy O’Neal are two talented Colorado-based producers and DJs that are quickly gaining fame in the global electronic music scene. Both artists have found themselves occupying a similar space in a genre saturated with ever-growing talent, offering up dynamic bass-driven songs that add a glitch-heavy edge to electro-soul and electro-funk while drawing on a vast range of other musical influences. While their approaches to the craft are wildly different, Bass Physics and Maddy O’Neal share a fierce creative energy, which they channel consistently into stand-out, emotive tracks with tight production and inspired and adventurous sampling.

Another trait the two producers share is an impressive list of past accomplishments. Both have landed support gigs for hugely popular artists—between the two of them, they’ve performed with Pretty Lights, Big Gigantic, Savoy, Minnesota, and Zion I—and have been tapped to play at nationally renowned venues like Camp Bisco, Electric Forest, Arise Music Festival, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, and more.

Today, Live For Live Music is proud to premiere a brand-new collaboration between Bass Physics and Maddy O’Neal titled “Self Equity”, which feature conscious hip-hop artist Knowledge THYself. The new track, “Self Equity”, shows off the best of both producers, allowing both to maintain their unique sound while highlighting the duo’s penchant for captivating, lyric song compositions and patient, high-caliber craftsmanship.

You can take a listen to the Live For Live Music world premiere of Bass Physics and Maddy O’Neal’s “Self Equity” below, ahead of its official release on Friday, April 13th. If you’re digging what you’re hearing, you can catch both artists on the road, as they both have plans to tour heavily this summer.
