On its official Facebook account, Emerald Noise has been posting artist spotlights describing each of the artists- and their specialties. One to look out for is Mazaa, who released two albums last year, as well as a single last month. His sound is characterized by melodic synths reminiscent of Porter Robinson’s Worlds project.
Additionally, be sure to catch Adastra’s closing set. He’s a pretty influential DJ, constantly supporting local artists, particularly through his PNW Producer Radio playlist on Spotify. Melodic dubstep seems to be his go-to genre.
