Poor Connection by Ookay, Hydraulix

WAKAAN signee Hydraulix and bass-fusion legend Ookay unleash a composition of glitchy synths on their collaborative single, “Poor Connection” out Friday, March 13.

Ahead of his tour supporting WAKAAN founder Liquid Stranger, Hydraulix leaves no stone unturned. Growing up with a penchant for hip-hop icons from the likes of DJ Premier, Dr Dre, and Pete Rock, the bass destroyer’s roots can be traced back to old-school hip-hop sound design. A vehicle for explosiveness both on stage and in the studio, Hydraulix’s dynamite tendencies have been praised by dance music tastemakers like ThisSongIsSick, Insomniac, and The Industry Observer. The Sydney-based producer also just landed a sync deal with Netflix’s new show Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, expanding his influence on pop culture beyond the mainstage. Serving as the co-write and counterpart to “Poor Connection” digital afficindo Ookay brings his unique production style to the forefront of the beautifully mutated single. Having released music under Spinnin’ Records and Dim Mak, the DJ/producer is no stranger to the limelight. With over a decade of experience under his belt, the Billboard chart topping artist has performed spine chilling sets at festivals as big as Coachella and collaborated alongside industry giants Marshmello and Noah Cyrus. A track that illuminates the beauty of artistic allyship, “Poor Connection” is a left-field bass gem with looming synths and matte black basslines. Another win for WAKAAN, “Poor Connection” is rich with a palpable valor.
