Excision

Bass music’s chief architect brings seismic energy and immersive spectacle to DSTRKT25.

Excision has carved his name into the DNA of modern bass music, raising the stakes for what a live electronic show can be. The Canadian producer is a master of extremes—his sets move with surgical precision, then hit with the force of a tidal wave. Whether headlining festival main stages or curating his own immersive experiences, Excision is relentless in pursuit of sonic impact. What sets Excision apart isn’t just the sheer weight of his drops, but the cinematic scale of his vision. Every show is engineered from the ground up, with custom visuals, relentless bass, and a sense of momentum that sweeps the crowd into a collective frenzy. He blurs the boundaries between DJ and world-builder, creating a space where fans aren’t just listeners—they’re participants in something bigger. This year, Excision brings that same intensity to DSTRKT25. Expect a set that’s as physical as it is emotional, where the low end rattles the concrete and every build feels like the start of something seismic. For the faithful, it’s a ritual; for the uninitiated, it’s a baptism by sub-bass.
