Hard techno.
Hard techno on BASSWAV is the melodic side of hard. The lane is melodic techno with bounce — bright hooks, a clear lead, and the kind of room-ready lift that carries a peak-hour set without losing the floor. AAVEX is the anchor project, building tracks that land as melodic techno first and as hard techno second: songs people sing on the way home, not only kicks people remember from the room. The catalog sits between peak-tunnel hard techno and high-BPM melodic techno; we sign for the bridge that gets peak-tunnel crowds to listen and melodic-techno crowds to move.
We sign hard techno that works in headphones and in a warehouse on the same night. A lead you can still hum on the way home, at 150–160 BPM. A breakdown that earns its drop instead of announcing it. And a second track behind it, to show the first was not luck. Play it to a real room before you send it. The catalog stays away from the relentless-kick end of the lane and from EDM-melodic crossovers.
