Canadian producer Rezz teams up with Swedish artist Owl Vision for Downward, a dark and hypnotic release on her label HypnoVizion, pushing bass music into deeper experimental territory.
The queen of hypnotic bass, Rezz, has returned with another genre-bending single. This time, she partners with Swedish electronic visionary Owl Vision for Downward, released through her own label HypnoVizion. The track continues Rezz’s signature journey into dark soundscapes, cementing her status as one of the most innovative producers in modern electronic music.
A Hypnotic New Chapter
Since founding HypnoVizion in 2022, Rezz has curated a home for music that exists at the edge of bass, techno, and experimental electronica. Downward fits perfectly into that mission. By collaborating with Owl Vision, known for his pioneering “death electro” style, Rezz has crafted a track that feels both eerie and cinematic.
From the opening bars, Downward pulls listeners into a shadowy sonic world. The track builds with distorted synth textures, ghostly atmospheres, and a heavy, hypnotic bassline. It’s a song that doesn’t just move the body—it unsettles the mind.
Rezz x Owl Vision: A Natural Collision
The collaboration came naturally. Rezz has often spoken about her love for darker, industrial-influenced electronic sounds, while Owl Vision’s productions have long lived in that world. By joining forces, the two artists push each other into new creative territory.
“Working with Owl Vision felt inevitable,” Rezz shared in a press note. “His sound has always inspired me, and Downward came together in a way that feels raw and powerful.”
For Owl Vision, the partnership represents a chance to introduce his unique aesthetic to a wider global audience. Known across underground circles for his intense, cinematic sound design, he brings an unmistakable edge to the single.
The Sound of Downward
At its core, Downward is built around slow-burning tension and explosive release. Unlike mainstream EDM drops, the track thrives in atmosphere and weight. Layers of distorted bass rumble beneath eerie vocal samples, while sharp percussion drives the momentum forward.
It’s a track designed for late-night sets, cavernous venues, and headphone immersion—an example of Rezz’s ability to build worlds through sound. Fans describe it as “a descent into darkness,” perfectly capturing both the title and the sonic experience.
HypnoVizion’s Expanding Universe
Since launching HypnoVizion, Rezz has used the label as both a platform for her own releases and as a space to amplify artists who share her vision. The imprint has already released a string of boundary-pushing records, and Downward continues that legacy.
This collaboration signals HypnoVizion’s international reach as well, with Canadian, Swedish, and global influences converging. It shows the label’s growing importance in the experimental bass movement, offering an alternative to mainstream festival sounds.
Community Reaction
Within hours of its release, Downward began circulating across fan communities and playlists. Listeners praised its cinematic depth and raw intensity, noting that the track feels tailor-made for live performance.
On social media, fans celebrated the collaboration as a perfect pairing. “Rezz and Owl Vision together is the dark alliance we didn’t know we needed,” one fan tweeted.
A Defining Moment for Bass Music
With Downward, Rezz and Owl Vision have delivered more than just a track—they’ve crafted a statement. It reinforces the idea that electronic music thrives when artists aren’t afraid to explore the darker edges of sound design.
For Rezz, it’s another step in her evolution as both an artist and label head. For Owl Vision, it’s a breakthrough into the broader spotlight. And for the global electronic community, it’s a reminder that bass music can still be fresh, hypnotic, and daringly different.
