If you love the high-energy, melodic chaos of tracks like Slushii & Affinity VIP’s “Turn It Up,” then stop what you’re doing and check out “BAUOW,” the latest track from ANDRÉUS. Clocking in at just over five minutes, “BAUOW” pulls you and whisks you into a world of glitchy, vibrant soundscapes. It somehow feels both familiar and futuristic, a track that could easily define the sound of 2025.
“BAUOW” starts with a materializing moment – swirling, ethereal pads create an expansive, digital atmosphere that feels almost weightless. Then the beat slides in—clean, sharp, and perfectly synchronized with your pulse. A sliced-up vocal sample cuts through the mix, building tension until the drop hits. And what a drop it is – heavy, colorful basslines explode alongside melodic stabs that feel alive, chaotic, and meticulously crafted. There’s a clear nod to tracks like TYNAN & Ace Aura’s “Stay” and the manic energy of “Turn It Up,” but ANDRÉUS makes it entirely his own. It’s intense, surreal, and euphoric all at once.
ANDRÉUS’ musical journey began at age seven, banging away on a Rock Band drum kit, which sparked a love of percussion that would later evolve into full-fledged production skills. His older brother then introduced him to Skrillex, opening the door to a world of wild, otherworldly sounds. Drum lessons and a Native Instruments Maschine soon followed, and the rest is history. That rhythmic precision shows in “BAUOW,” where tight, driving percussion anchors the track’s soaring, chaotic melodies.

After early releases like 2020’s “Anyone” and “Beyond,” ANDRÉUS hit a stride with “Passenger 7” in 2021, which gained thousands of organic streams on Spotify. His 2022 EP Showdown further honed his sound, and now, with “BAUOW,” he’s taken a huge leap forward. Released in April, this track also marks the debut of Red Set Records, a new label based in Olney, Maryland, dedicated to showcasing fresh talent. ANDRÉUS is the perfect artist to kick things off, and the track is a declaration: this label is here to make waves.
As “BAUOW” winds down, it doesn’t just fade out. The heavy bass and drums give way to the dreamy, cinematic pads that opened the track, creating a full-circle experience. It’s a composed, fully realized journey that balances chaos and melody, intensity and euphoria. The Dubstep scene is indeed crowded, but ANDRÉUS is staking his claim, and “BAUOW” proves he’s a producer to watch.
