Built around a hypnotic, hushed vocal hook that snakes through the track, “RAGE” surges with raw, visceral energy. Kumarion’s razor-sharp sound design takes center stage, as gurgling synths twist and churn alongside thunderous bass oscillations. Intricately layered percussive arrangements propel the momentum with a restless, breakneck pace, while call-and-response sequences inject bursts of chaotic unpredictability. It’s a high-octane workout of a track designed for both peak-hour festival moments and those seeking to unleash their inner fury.
Diving into the perfect setting to listen to his latest creation, Kumarion says, “I listen to ‘RAGE’ anytime I hit that treadmill in the gym to get across the finish line. It’s a great motivator with a good pace for a gym sesh.”
Kumarion’s boundary-pushing approach has earned support from top tastemakers across the scene, including EDM.com, Dubstep FBI, and The Music Essentials. Since being named a Billboard ‘Artist to Watch’ in 2022, the rising talent has continued to solidify his place at the forefront of modern drum and bass. His early breakout “Give It To Me Like I Want It” dominated the 2020 season, earning co-signs from bass music titans like RL Grime and JOYRYDE. With celebrated releases on powerhouse imprints such as UKF, Monstercat, and Sable Valley, Kumarion’s trajectory remains unstoppable.
“RAGE” hits at a pivotal moment in Kumarion’s career, arriving as he takes the stage alongside bass music icons Rusko and SubDocta for upcoming live support performances at The Brooklyn Monarch and Cervantes’ Masterpiece Ballroom in Denver. With an unrelenting drive to push drum and bass forward in the U.S. landscape, “RAGE” serves as a rallying cry for those ready to channel chaos into raw power. This is Kumarion at his most fierce—blurring genre lines, breaking boundaries, and redefining what’s possible in the world of 175 BPM.
Kumarion’s new single “RAGE” is available on all platforms via Bassrush Records.
