"Sinking" by Enei, brings not only intense energy but a story steeped in electronic folklore. This track was climbing the Beatport charts when an unprecedented crash stopped its rise, giving fans reason to believe it was cursed. Sinking pulls you in with a suspense-filled intro that transitions into a deep bass groove, perfect for fans of a sinister vibe. The haunting energy that builds throughout makes it an ideal choice for Halloween night, where myth and music blend in one ominous atmosphere.

"Jericho" is an electric collaboration between Jacknife and The Bloody Beetroots. Released under Tiesto’s Musical Freedom label, "Jericho" delivers a fusion of '80s synth-wave with futuristic, rave-ready energy. The track opens with dark, pulsating synths before exploding into powerful drops that maintain a gritty, fast-paced tempo. It’s a theatrical powerhouse, combining vintage influences with modern production that fits perfectly in a high-energy Halloween party.

Last but not least, who else to lead us into the frightening fray but Los Angeles-based DJ/producer ONHELL (a phonetic spelling of the Spanish pronunciation of angel), whose recent Sandía EP and debut on Alix Perez's 1985 imprint is bass music at its very best. With "Black Candle," we get a sonic projection of dark, invisible flames engulfing any dance floor it touches, with a bouncy cadence, heavy percussions, and two distinct drops that will make your heart stop, only to be reanimated into the ranks of the raving dead this Halloween!
