From the opening seconds, “SHARPSHOOTER” makes it clear to listeners that it is a track primed for the moshpit. It wastes no time crescendoing into an energetic buildup layered with a mix of spine-tingling vocal samples and heavy drums before erupting into an electrifying riddim-fueled drop. ONARA chops it up with sequences of riddim that are guaranteed to incite collective headbanging from a crowd of any size, whether this banger is being played at a festival or warehouse rave.
The first drop weaves into another buildup, giving its audience virtually zero time to take a breath before another bone-rattling progression of riddim ensues. This track as a whole showcases ONARA’s expertise as a producer and raw, aggressive sound design that continues to resonate with a consistently growing global fanbase.
Behind the music is a project built entirely on momentum. With over a decade of production experience and early inspiration from artists like Skrillex, deadmau5, and Virtual Riot, ONARA found his lane in riddim and launched the project anonymously through SoundCloud around 2020. By 2023, his music had already begun circulating in sets from major names like INFEKT, Shiverz, and Obey, sparking widespread speculation across online communities before he had even played a show.
That organic demand translated quickly into measurable success. His debut releases in 2024 immediately charted, including a Beatport #2 entry and a #1 record with “KREAM TEAM,” both of which remained staples across bass music events. Since then, ONARA has continued to attract serious attention through releases like “Most Wanted,” an official remix on INFEKT’s Port Zero label, and a standout contribution to The Resistance’s ‘EVIL EMPIRE’ remix compilation, further aligning him with the next wave of elite riddim talent. His ‘conceptualize EP’ also saw multiple tracks land inside the Beatport Top 5.
The project’s live presence has scaled just as fast. Following a sold-out debut headline show in Montreal, ONARA delivered a breakout performance at Northern Invasion and continues to gain traction across international stages. His recent B2B with roi* has already surpassed 50,000 streams on SoundCloud, with the duo set to reunite at Rampage Open Air this summer. With new EPs in the pipeline and upcoming appearances across North America and Europe, ONARA is entering a defining phase of his career.
With “SHARPSHOOTER,” ONARA reinforces his position as one of riddim’s most dangerous artists. This single sets the tone for a packed year of releases and touring, signaling that his climb to the top is only just beginning.
