[LISTEN] DIESEL And Virtual Riot Unleash Debut Collaboration With 'Damage'
DIESEL and Virtual Riot, two powerhouses in bass music, have teamed up for their first-ever collaboration, “Damage.” The track, set for release on Monstercat Uncaged, blends their unique styles into a high-impact festival anthem. With Virtual Riot’s precision production and DIESEL’s commanding presence, “Damage” is poised to make waves in the electronic music scene.
The song begins with an acoustic guitar-driven intro before shifting into an aggressive trap beat, accompanied by Shaquille O’Neal’s unmistakable vocal delivery. The energy builds until the track erupts into a drum & bass drop designed to shake festival grounds. This unexpected blend of influences highlights both artists’ versatility and ability to push genre boundaries.
The timing of this release coincides with Shaq’s Fun House, a major music and entertainment event taking place during Super Bowl weekend at Mardi Gras World in New Orleans. Featuring performances from John Summit, Ludacris, and DIESEL himself, the event promises a night of larger-than-life experiences, including carnival rides and a six-hour open bar.
Virtual Riot, known for his groundbreaking productions and genre-defying album Stealing Fire, continues his momentum with this collaboration. He is set to headline The Shrine in Los Angeles the day after “Damage” drops, with a stacked lineup including MUST DIE! B2B Syzy and more.
With its hybrid sound design and relentless energy, “Damage” stands out as a must-hear track for bass enthusiasts. As both artists gear up for a massive year, this collaboration is just the beginning of what is sure to be an exciting chapter for DIESEL and Virtual Riot.
