Subtronics and REZZ have returned with a new version of their single, “Black Ice (feat. Phantogram)” via Cyclops Recordings. After the resounding success of the instrumental version of “Black Ice,” Subtronics and REZZ tap “Black Out Days” creators Phantogram to elevate the track with powerful, yet deeply haunting vocals. The follow up to Subtronics’ remix of “Black Out Days,” Phantogram continues to show their crossover-ability translating in the dance world. “Black Ice” was premiered for the first time live, in front of 30,000 fans at Beyond Wonderland music festival in Southern California on March 23, 2024.
Drawing inspiration from the “tesseract,” a geometric marvel known in fourth-dimensional geometry as a 16-cell cube, Subtronics’ passion for quantum physics and high-dimensional theory is explored through the boundaries of sound design and genre fluidity, much like traversing the cosmos. This is evident throughout the album’s audio-visual experience, while continuing to channel his fascination into an innovative stage design, accompanied by breathtaking visual elements for the TESSERACT tour.
In 2023, Subtronics—who DJ Mag tapped as “Best DJ” for their Best of North America Awards’– was the only electronic music act to crack Pollstar’s Top 100 North American Tours chart at #75. The now-completed 2024 TESSERACT Tour filled major American venues like Barclay’s Center, State Farm Arena, MGM Music Hall at Fenway and more.
