Relentless Beats and Aftershock do it again—Wooli’s return to Phoenix was nothing short of explosive. With a setup echoing Subtronics’ Cyclops Desert in both layout and organization, there’s a clear formula in motion: world-class artists backed by top-tier production, delivering experiences that feel just as much like celebrations as they do performances. Every time bass shakes the Rawhide Event Center, it leaves a mark on Arizona’s EDM scene, and this night was no exception. With support from Level Up, Automhate b2b Mad Dubz, ProbCause (DJ Set), Capochino, and Phoenix’s own District 13, the energy never let up.

District 13

One of Phoenix’s rising bass producers, District 13 has been steadily earning his place on major lineups. His opening set proved why—packed with self-produced IDs and relentless energy, he set the tone for the rest of the night.

Capochino

A name quickly climbing bass music’s freshman class, Capochino has been turning heads with consistent releases and co-signs from heavyweights like Kompany, Level Up, and Hairitage. His Rawhide set was stacked with heavy drops, playful moments, and even his first live attempt at chopping riddim, making it both powerful and memorable.

Automhate b2b Mad Dubz

The Poppe Brothers—Italy’s Automhate and the UK’s Mad Dubz—brought raw riddim to the desert. Known for their Beatport-topping collab “Poppe,” their set was a nonstop barrage of bass that drew in the diehard headbangers and reminded everyone why the duo’s been shaking up the scene worldwide.

ProbCause

Known first as a rapper, painter, and collaborator with names like LSDream, Griz, and Ganja White Night, ProbCause has carved a unique space in EDM as a DJ. Fusing live raps with his bass-heavy, vibey production, his set was both fresh and infectious—bridging hip-hop roots with festival-ready energy.

Level Up

From battle DJ beginnings to a certified bass powerhouse, Level Up is known for commanding any crowd. Her set flowed seamlessly between crushing dubstep drops, euphoric future-bass lifts, and emo-driven anthems, proving once again why she’s one of the most versatile and exciting acts pushing bass music forward.

Wooli

If one thing was certain, Phoenix was ready for Wooli. The Rawhide Event Center was packed wall to wall, with a crowd that fed off every drop. His set spanned bone-rattling dubstep to cinematic, melodic lifts, showcasing the full spectrum of his sound and reminding everyone why he’s become one of the must-see forces in bass music today.

Why Phoenix Stays on the Bass Map

This night at Rawhide proved once again why Arizona has become a hotspot for bass music. With a lineup that balanced local talent, fast-rising names, and international heavy-hitters, the energy never dipped, and Wooli’s return sealed it as one for the books. Relentless Beats and Aftershock aren’t just throwing shows—they’re curating experiences that keep Arizona at the center of the bass music conversation.
