Just when I thought EDM-trap was receding into flash-in-the-pan infamy, the Scottish heavyweight Rustie returns with a game-changer. The ecstatic “Slasherr” rejuvenates the fading Luger-inspired sub-genre with jittery percussion, tropical seapunk-esque rave vibes and of course, a face-smashing drop. Download “Slasherr” now from iTunes or pre-order it on 12” vinyl along with the as-yet-unreleased single “Triadzz”.

In other news, Rustie‘s Spring tour includes two Canadian dates:

• Toronto – March 8 @ The Hoxton
• Montréal – March 9 @ Le Belmont
