Steve Aoki and Koven Unite for Debut Drum & Bass Collaboration “Nervous System” on Monstercat
Grammy-nominated DJ and producer Steve Aoki today debuts on Monstercat alongside leading award-winning Drum & Bass outfit Koven for their massive debut collaboration, “Nervous System.”
When Koven joined Steve Aoki on stage at the iconic Tomorrowland festival to debut “Nervous System,” the crowd erupted in a frenzy. The unexpected collaboration marks a monumental moment in the dance music landscape poised to redefine mainstream EDM, as two tastemakers in their respective genres join forces. With Drum & Bass experiencing a surge in popularity across North America, there is no better crossover than Steve Aoki and Koven to bridge the gap and make the genre receive the recognition it deserves. The track’s pedal-to-the-floor bassline and infectious lyrics cement the rising genre’s place as a driving force in the dance realm and is bound to leave a long lasting impact.
Steve Aoki shares, “Collaborating with Koven on “Nervous System” was an incredible experience. I’ve been a fan of their work for a while, so when the chance came up to work together, it was a no-brainer. They brought such a unique energy to the track, and I think we really created something special that both our fan bases are going to vibe with. This is a track that represents the best of both our worlds.”
Koven adds, “Doing a collaboration with Steve had been a goal of ours for quite a few years. We finally got to meet him at Tomorrowland 2023, and at this point we had already done a remix of one of his tracks. He said he’d love to work with us again which made us absolutely giddy so we took our opportunity to send some ideas his way, and the rest is history. We are so proud of the final track and working with Steve was such a lovely experience!”
