On Don Diablo's HEXAGON label as part of the Future collection, "Wanna Be" is a burst of adrenaline and neon-lit energy from Canadian producer iQoniK alongside FAZE X for the exciting new single. The track bursts out of the gate with kinetic energy.
"Wanna Be" is just a really fun, high-energy DnB track straight up about movement. It's the sort of record that makes you want to dance, to drive late at night, and listen at a festival. There is a beat that runs throughout, balancing brisk energy with stinging, contemporary production.
IQoniK and FAZE X make a very good team. Pacing on the production is rapid, with bouncy drum patterns and bright layers of synth that thrum up and down in perfect time. This song knows what it is and goes for bright, forward-thinking Drum and Bass with an implacable bounce. That this record is part of HEXAGON's Future collection further cements the idea that it is music made with a look towards the future. The mix has a slick sheen that suits the label's avant-garde electronic sound.
"Wanna Be" is a celebration of sound, beat, and collective energy. It's a reminder that the best electronic music is about people, and providing them with a space to let loose and simply move. This release sounds fresh and easy to fit into the place your mind makes for a new experience, but it was created with a purpose. It was designed to traverse playlist after playlist, speaker after speaker, and crowd after crowd primed to feel its rush.
