Can’t wait to hear the homie geome :) Geome is the electronic music project of Gage Horwitz, a St. Louis–born artist now based in Virginia Beach. He builds immersive bass music tracks through sonic experimentation and guitar-led intuition. A formative chapter in Arizona marked a shift from curiosity to discipline, where exploration evolved into craft and improvisation became a core language. His work moves between structure and spontaneity, shaped by instinct and the emotional textures found in everyday life.

Geovisual Creations is bringing immersive domes to Steppa Sound👀 These domes are about the change the whole vibe! Built by artist Ralph Edge, these installations mix geometric design, projection mapping, and trippy visuals to turn these domes into a full 360 experience. Come step inside and get lost!

He went on to release 10 EPs and 1 full length LP with the label, also releasing tracks on 1985, 20/20, Shogun Audio, and Hooversound. His sound blends forward-thinking drum & bass with experimental, bass-heavy production and a constantly evolving style. His skill as a DJ secured yearly festival slots across the UK and Europe, including Boomtown and Outlook. He was hand selected in 2016 for Red Bull Music Academy in Montreal, where he worked with artists from around the world and was mentored by Just Blaze, Dorian Concept, and Thundercat, also forming the collaborative project ‘Rippps’ with Niels Broos.

Hear @yhetimusic play two sets at Steppa Sound!! Don’t miss the sunrise!!! 🌅👣 ——————————————————————————— Yheti has written and released over 150 tracks across the internet datasphere. A fusion of a thousand inspirations Yheti’s live performances are self described as… “an ever morphing detailed sound sculpture that plays with the ears of those open to the more experimental, surreal, low end heavy side of electronic music. With the intention of creating a champion dance environment through innovative bass lines, interesting rhythms, and soul driven melodies.” Over the past 10yrs Yheti has performed at many major festivals, headlined many venues across North America, toured with many champions of sound and gained the support of a few low-key famous people. 2030 will be a huge year for Yheti, so look far into the future or very deep into the present, put your ear close up to reality, and you may hear the faint rumble of subwoofers in the distance. This is an exploration of sound, technology, psychology and how it all interacts with the complex human condition we all experience. Rooted in love for art and moving forward with gusto.
