Excision continuously pushes the boundaries on heavy Bass Music and production, championing an unmatched dedication to his craft and fan experience within the genre.

Within the last five years, Excision has launched multiple large-scale festival productions that over 100,000 dedicated fans call “home.” Excision’s prehistoric themed dinosaur festival Lost Lands will celebrate its fifth year in 2022, while Bass Canyon, a dubstep haven nestled along the scenic Gorge Amphitheatre will see its fourth. Excision’s dedication to touring is unheralded as he’s headlined well over 1000 shows in the last decade of touring, including at his major branded events like Thunderdome, The Coliseum, and many more.

Excision’s expansive discography spans five full-length studio albums, countless EPs and singles, 15 annual fan-favorite mixes, all of which have collectively amassed over 2 billion streams globally. His new record label Subsidia was birthed in 2020 following in the footsteps of his previous imprint Rottun Records, and it released over 400 tracks released in its first year alone. Subsidia celebrates the diversity of Bass Music and has become an exceptional platform for both established and emerging artists.
Excision’s influence can be felt in every facet of the industry, and though he’s already established a legendary brand, he’s continually striving to help the community grow. “Everything I do is focused around the mission of helping Bass Music grow, while still staying true to itself, constantly innovative and fresh. We have such a caring and loving group of people involved within this scene, and I hope the music will help more people find their home within it.” - Excision
