Sub Syrup Collective

We are thrilled to have Elevated Mind coming up from the Bay to throw down the bounciest of bleeps, bloops, and wubs!

Elevated Mind is the musical project of San Francisco native DJ/Producer Will Bauer. Back in 2014, Will created the concept of Elevated Mind through an out-of-body creative flow, where musical ideas, movements, and decisions seem to be guided outside of control. Listening to the seamless mix of psychedelic melodies and intricately crafted basslines, you can expect to feel the same lack of control when on the dance floor.

His first CD, Dr. Dre “2001”, left such a large impact on his psyche that you can hear heavy hip-hop influences vibrating through his productions and DJ sets. Mix in an obsession with mind-bending sound design and larger-than-life bass, and you’ve got a recipe to elevate your mind.

Check out his Beat Lab Radio set to get a taste, it's absolutely amazing 😺

Alrighty y'all we can't freakin wait to hear Pacific Patterns flex the system 😺😺😺

Portland based electronic music producer, Pacific Patterns, has returned from a long hiatus. PP, strikes a balance of hard hitting bass and melodic elements, driven by psychedelic atmospheres and textures. He originally made a name for himself by pushing unique sounds up and down the west coast and releases with innovative labels such as phuture collective, Jadu Dala and more.

You can hear his most recent tunes, including some especially juicy collabs with both yunis and Pressha, on Soundcloud, Spotify, and all the usual places 🔊

Oh hey y'all, we got some excellent non music thangs happening too! We're stoked to have the incredibly multi-talented Ian Bennett (aka Anode Design) back live painting for his 3rd Sub Syrup. Lately he's been milling wood from his land out in the Oregon mountains and turning them into some pretty exquisite paintings. Check out some of his recent work at Anode Design, including custom woodwork and installs! Good stuff 😺

Y’all we are just under 2 weeks from the final party at the HQ 😱 We’re pretty freakin hype on this sendoff, and wanted to share some more about all our artists. First up … Devin Kroes!!!


Devin Kroes is a Portland, Oregon based music producer and multi instrumentalist who specializes in combining cutting edge sound design with lush soundscapes and emotionally driven instrumentals.

Preferring to not be locked into any one style, Devin combines elements of dubstep, downtempo, halftime, and psybass with flairs of flamenco, jazz and soul to create a sound that is heavy, deep and harmonious.
