Music with a purpose: that’s what you could call Dysphemic’s newest musical offering.

The electronic music artist has created another playful track, a type of a “Dolphin Bass”, using animal sounds to raise funds for a charity.

He’s inviting you to join him in this quest. Will you?

He’s done it before with the catchy “Koala Bass”. And he’s doing it again. This time, however, Dysphemic has turned his attention to another endangered species – the dolphins.

That’s because the NSW-based artist is not your ordinary producer.

He’s an electronic music trailblazer, celebrated for pushing musical boundaries. He captivates audiences globally with his distinctive approach to music. Known for melding gritty bass grooves with a fusion of acoustic instruments and grand cinematic breakdowns, his sound takes listeners on an eclectic journey across dubstep, glitch hop, bass house, and drum and bass.

From being credited by Vice Magazine for pioneering classical dubstep to having his album Zeus listed as one of the most overlooked albums of 2017 by Reddit, he has continued to expand the minds of listeners around the globe with his unique take on dance music. His track “Snake King” was used by GoPro and broadcast to millions of viewers during the 2019 Tour de France.

A highlight of the Australian festival circuit, Dysphemic regularly graces the stages of prestigious festivals like Splendour in the Grass, Earth Frequency, Elements, and Tanglewood.

Internationally, he has toured multiple times across the United States, making an impact at festivals such as Eclipse and Burning Man and captivating audiences in club shows from coast to coast. Amongst his career highlights, he also counts having played on top of a garbage bin in an illegal squat party in the meatpacking district of Athens in Greece.

Each live set is a unique spectacle of original music, often featuring tracks crafted exclusively for the performance. Through an eclectic discography that fuses classical melodies, Mediterranean instruments, and playful animal sounds, Dysphemic has crafted a soundscape uniquely his own.

His new single is one of those tracks using animal sounds, created with a special purpose in mind.

“AI Dolphin” tells the tale of a dolphin superhero fighting corporate tyranny, set against a mix of boom-bap drums, dubstep wobbles, and psychedelic sci-fi soundscapes. With its innovative production and vivid narrative, the track invites listeners to dance and direct positive energy to doing something good for Mother Nature.

Blending gritty bass lines with a futuristic storyline, the track has a mission: to raise awareness and funds for dolphin conservation and protection.

As with his “Koala Bass” before, all proceeds from the new song will support a good cause. This time, he has chosen Action for Dolphins – an Australia-based organisation committed to ending dolphin hunting and captivity worldwide. The charity works to protect marine life through legal action, public education, and advocacy for stronger protections. 

Here’s how Dysphemic put it himself:

The NSW muso is centralising his efforts under one umbrella to ensure that the track gets maximum exposure.

So, if you’re ready to join his mission, all you have to do is stream the song and shout about it from the (online and offline) rooftops. If you’re in the position to, you can always chip in a coin or two.

And don’t forget to tell your friends. After all, the AI versions of real-life things are something we’re all pretty curious about, right?
