Denver's Motion Trap has been a staple of the Mile High music scene for years now.

Motion Trap was featured on 303 Music Vol. 2 — a vinyl compilation in partnership with 303 Magazine and Vinyl Me, Please — and had a music video featured in an official Denver Film Festival afterparty. Their sonic pop-rock sounds are danceable to say the least and catching on quick.

NASTY NACHOS

Nasty Nachos (Alex Anderson) is an experiment in technology, vintage synthesizers and mastering melody in order to create escapist dance music. The Denver-based artist is on the heels of a debut EP release after spending three years solely constructing a booming reputation for Nasty Nachos.

CERVAL
CERVAL
Very little is known about Denver pop newcomer CERVAL, but if their debut single, “Unavailable” provides any insight, it’s that he didn’t come to play games. The drugged-out self-produced song, mixed by Shuta Shinoda (Hot Chip, Bath Full of Ecstasy) wobbles in a disconcerting haze of IRL fantasies before breaking into four-on-the-floor propulsion that drags you down a rabbit hole of R&B harmonies and increasing urgency and depth.
