Inside the Making of ‘Disco Demon’ By SUBSHIFT ….
SUBSHIFT and Basura Boyz have teamed up on “Disco Demon,” and it’s an absolute knockout. From the first hit, the track hits with a dark energy that pulls you right in. The bassline, deep and driving, sets the tone, while the drop delivers a heavy punch you can’t ignore. Then there’s that addictive vocal loop—“I met her at the after’s / She’s my disco demon”—it’s raw, gritty, and impossible to shake. With SUBSHIFT’s sharp production style and Basura Boyz’s edgy, acid-laced touches, “Disco Demon” is pure fire, made for those late, sweaty, underground sets.
The track came together fast, almost like magic. SUBSHIFT got things rolling with a killer bassline, and right away, he knew it was perfect for Basura Boyz’s sound. Nick (Basura Boyz) brought his signature flavor—gritty synths, hypnotic plucks, and those vocals that give the track its wild, raw feel. They wrapped it up in less than a week, just in time for Miami Music Week. When they shared it at Retail Records’ studio day, Black V Neck was all in, loving what they heard. Now, “Disco Demon” is dropping on Strangelove, the sub-label of Toolroom Records, marking a fresh new step for both of them.
SUBSHIFT, based in the UK, is well on his way up and simply cannot be ignored and it’s easy to see why. He’s signed to big names like Insomniac Records, Techne, Hau5trap, and Confession. His live sets have lit up places like Ushuaia Ibiza and Ministry of Sound in London, and he’s started to build an international following, headlining in Reggio Emilia, Italy, and making his debut at Tomorrowland Belgium. With over 10 million streams on Spotify and 250k monthly listeners, tracks like “Get Loose” have been massive, earning love from BBC Radio 1’s Jess Iszatt and spins from heavyweights like DJ Snake, Goodboys, and Tchami.
