Ephwurd

Ephwurd was an American electronic music project run by Bais Haus and formerly Troy Beetles, aka Datsik. The project was active as a duo from 2015-2018 and as a solo project until its end in 2021. Ephwurd went public with a remix of Major Lazer & DJ Snake's "Lean On", before revealing who was behind the duo in July 2015 as they released the single "Rock the Party" on the Spinnin' Records label. Ephwurd was one of the first acts to popularize the "bass house" genre of music to a wider audience. Bass house has been described as an " all-encompassing melting pot is so broad it’s impossible to define what it is". The origins of bass house has been traced back to the mid to late-1990s with the work of the group Basement Jaxx that was melded into UK garage over time. One reviewer labelled Ephwurd as a "high-flying collaboration of epic proportions", describing the music as "an exciting blend of dubstep and house music that has packed out venues around the world." In February 2019, Ephwurd has developed Eph'd Up Records label releasing emerging artists in the "bass house" genre. Since 2021 the label is no longer active. Read more on Last.fm.
