Los Angeles-based producer SHAKING has been rattling systems and making major waves with his tectonic blend of UK garage and fast-paced house cuts since launching the project recently. Making his debut on NIGHTMODE comes “PRESSURE POINT.” The UKG track packs enough energy to cause fractures at the meridians of festivals and club dancefloors alike.
“PRESSURE POINT” is an energetic onslaught of UK garage goodness. Ethereal vocal tones drift below a mixture of police scanners and dub sirens, creating a cinematic yet gritty opening with mystifying allure. Wailing foghorns, shuffling drum work, modulated synth warps, and rolling octave-shifting leads saunter across its weighty groove.
The “take it from the top” vocal acts as a throughline, anchoring the track while being bent, stretched, echoed, and pitched to match the energy of the rhythm. Fusing classic rave signatures with a frenetic pace and modern sensibilities makes “PRESSURE POINT an instant club weapon.
SHAKING stands at the epicenter of LA’s own Stateside garage revival. In a short time, the standout talent has delivered collaborations alongside Baauer and STRAWBRY, plus a remix for viral producer Lyrah.
He has already garnered tastemaker support from some of the scene’s biggest stars, including Interplanetary Criminal, Main Phase, DJ Seinfeld, Bushbaby, Odd Mob, 33 Below, and more. He’s hot off a performance at HARD Summer Music Festival, and has provided live support for NOTION, DJ Boring and Todd Edwards.
Addictive, dynamic, and heart-racing, “PRESSURE POINT” is a certified UKG anthem that helps cement SHAKING’s status among the new wave of garage artists taking over the scene.
“This track was the moment I felt I’d really done the M1 organ justice, making it special enough to stand out in a sea of similar sounds. Even now, when that M1 hits, the crowd’s reaction reminds me why it still stands out as a proper dancefloor moment.”—SHAKING
SHAKING has quickly established himself as one of the central figures of Los Angeles’ rapidly growing garage scene. Masterfully blending some of the best of today’s fast-paced sounds with an effortless energy behind the decks, his talent for reimagining familiar sounds into fresh club-and-festival-ready anthems has become undeniable to those from LA to Melbourne, to Bristol and back.
With support from huge names like Porter Robinson, DJ Seinfeld, and Interplanetary Criminal, as well as official releases with Baauer and Higher Ground, SHAKING’s momentum continues to grow, and his presence on the global club circuit is only just beginning to take shape.
SHAKING’s new single “Pressure Point” is available on all platforms via NIGHTMODE.
