What happens when two masked producers get their minds on the same piece of music? In this case, the post-apocalyptic, DVRKO, touches Marshmello’s x Wiwek’s, ‘Angklung Life’, to create a unique tribal bass house gem.

Framed around an amplified angklung, (the Indonisian orchestra instrument made of bamboo that is believed to promote social harmony, mutual respect and teamwork (PLUR), this high-octane remix drives deep with rattling pipes, chimes, bells and hard-hitting beats that give off a powerful, aggressive attitude. Tightly controlled, DVRKO finds space to create a spectacular atmosphere along his sonic assault.

DVRKO’s remix of Marshmello and Wiwek’s, ‘Angklung Life’ is out now and available to stream via YouTube and SoundCloud.

The steamy dancefloor track was accompanied by a music video that offers hints to solve the trending question, Who is DVRKO?

Between original productions, the versatile, masked musician gave us a taste of artists he is likely to mix into his debut set through a rework of Cheat Codes ft. Trippie Redd, Blackbear & Prince$$ Rosie, ‘No Service in the Hills’. You can be among the first to hear how DVRKO runs the decks through the freshly released, DVRKADE Radio weekly radio show, featuring Carnage, Diplo, JOYRYDE, Matroda and many more.

We know DVRKO has gone through dark times (a cyberpunk dystopia in the not-so-distant future), yet carries a message of ubiquitous love. Let’s hope that his cryptic presence here is a warning and if we heed to his messages we may shift humanity’s fate to a brighter future.

Whatever acts DVRKO committed during his dark upbringing has warranted a need to hide his identity while earning him prestige from the reputable artists who have remixed his work. It is safe to say, you will want to be at the DVRKO party when it first lights up.

Check back for the new single from DVRKO, “Death March,” out this week. We can’t wait to see what he conjures up for this music video!
