Seven Lions
Producer Seven Lions has never had a problem breaking rules and transcending musical boundaries to satisfy his creative vision. Catching his break after winning a Beatport remix contest in 2012 with his dubstep-focused version of Above & Beyond’s “You Got to Go”, Seven Lions, born Jeff Montalvo, garnered support from the likes of Anjunabeats, Casablanca Records, OWSLA, Viper Recordings, Republic Records, and Monstercat over the past nine years. After a decade of music, Seven Lions released his first ever album ‘Beyond The Veil’ to the excitement of the wider dance music scene. The album includes twelve solo original tracks that challenge and evolve the current melodic bass and dubstep sound that he helped pioneer. Massive crossover stars Lights and Vancouver Sleep Clinic as well as dance music singer/songwriters Mija, GG Magree and JT Roach are featured on the record, which delves into dance pop, downtempo, acoustic, house, ambient and cross-genre territory.
Seven Lions has been busy teasing the album tracks at countless festival headlines this past year, his 2021 tour and standout performances at Red Rocks and his own music festival Chronicles at the Gorge. Putting technical production prowess to work in a soulful, deep, hybridized creations that all distinctly his own, the multi-talented musician is changing the sonic landscape for future generations to come by bridging the gap between the soaring, ethereal vibe of trance and intensely adrenalizing bass music. His productions have seen stages at world-renowned festivals such as Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival (New York and Las Vegas), Electric Forest, Electric Zoo, South by Southwest, and HARD.
The Seven Lions world continues to expand through Ophelia Records, his own melodic bass label that has made its imprint through several scene-leading releases like Seven Lions, SLANDER, and Dabin Feat. Dylan Matthew – First Time, Seven Lions & Jason Ross – Ocean, Seven Lions, Excision, and Wooli Feat. Dylan Matthew- Another Me, and Seven Lions, Dabin, and Trivecta Feat. Nevve – Island. The label has become synonymous with homegrown, cream of the crop melodic bass music, and is undoubtedly the label that the rest of the melodic bass scene looks towards for up and coming acts and tour worthy anthems.
