Rezz Rocks VII Night 1 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre

Show Review

REZZ Rocks VII @ Red Rocks Amphitheatre - October 18, 2025

Okay time to lock in. I’ve finally come down from the lofty high of REZZ Rocks VII night one and after three years of shooting this show I can confirm: it never gets old. If anything, it gets sharper, heavier, and more ritualistic. This wasn't just another concert, it was an exorcism in heavy bass music.

Red Rocks, as we know, is sacred ground. You feel it before a single note drops. Towering slabs of prehistoric rock cradle the stage like a natural cathedral. And when the music hits just right, it echoes like a sermon. REZZ knows exactly how to wield this kind of power with her 7th named headlining event at the venue, she doesn’t just rise to the occasion, she embodies the very essence of performing at one of the most iconic venues.

The night opened with Tinykvt who laid the groundwork with a gritty out-the-gate kind of energy. No gimmicks, just pure, raw, low-end. NotLo followed and stretched the atmosphere wider. Think more experimental and slightly haunted, weaving in shadows where others might reach for lights. EDDIE stepped in like a sonic wrecking ball, cranking up the energy with tracks that jolted the crowd into full movement. A favorite set of mine for the night and when he dropped his remix of Porter Robinson’s Sad Machine the crowd, including myself, lost their collective mind. Right before REZZ took over, YDG ripped through his set with chaotic precision, throwing down heavyweight drops that had the whole amphitheatre locked in.

Then came REZZ. You know that moment right before a drop, when time feels like it’s holding its breath? Her whole entrance felt like that. She emerged from the shadow with those signature LED goggles glowing and the place erupted. From he first pulse, she took command. Her set wasn’t just loud, it was engulfing. The kind of bass you feel in your teeth.

The visuals were next level too. Her new portal set up did not disappoint. It’s been a joy being able to see REZZ’s production change, evolve and upgrade through the years. With lasers slicing through the mile high air and pyro hot enough to make you lose your eyebrows. The production wasn’t just impressive, it was transportive. You weren’t just at a REZZ show. You got to be in her head.

And what’s a show without a crowd? They were dialed in. Everyone moving and bouncing through the night. There’s a certain kind of unity that only happens when the music is this immersive. A Collective head-nod, a mutual bass-face agreement that yeah, this is the chaos we live for.

For me, year three shooting this event brought a weird sense of full-circle clarity. I’ve not only seen REZZ refine her sound, scale her vision and keep it personal. I’ve also done the same with my photography. Being able to look back at 2 past years to see how far I’ve come and evolved beside this mega talent that is REZZ is something special.

If you missed either night, let that FOMO sink in. REZZ Rocks VII wasn’t just another milestone, it was a masterclass in what happens when an artist fully owns their moment, in a venue designed for legends.

Here’s to hoping I’ll see you all next year. I’ll be the one in the pit, camera shaking from the bass and excitement.


Tinykvt

Emerging from a cinematic past (yes, she interned at Hans Zimmer’s studio and even sang on major film scores), Tinykvt flipped into bass music with purpose. Her production leans heavy and emotional. The kind of intensity you feel in your chest. One of her standout tracks, “Down,” dropped on HypnoVizion Records (the label run by REZZ) and shows how she marries cinematic tension with raw drop logic.


NotLö

Denver‑based and cutting her own lane in bass music, NotLö delivers distorted grooves, dark atmospheres, and unapologetic presence. She’s one of those artists who doesn’t just build a set, she builds a statement. From her EP Outskirts to sets that collapse genre boundaries, she’s someone you’ll remember leaving a show.


Eddie

Hailing from Australia, EDDIE has made a name for himself blending gritty electro-house with brooding midtempo and cinematic flair. His sound sits in that sweet spot between festival chaos and headphone introspection; dark, layered, and undeniably catchy. A frequent collaborator with REZZ and a staple on the HypnoVizion label, EDDIE isn’t chasing trends; he’s building his own lane in the shadows.


YDG

Short for “Young Death God,” YDG delivers bass music that hits like a controlled demolition. Known for blending dubstep, trap, and dark experimental vibes, his sets are explosive and unrelenting; always keeping crowds on edge. With a steady rise through the underground and support from major names in the scene, YDG is becoming a go-to for anyone chasing high-octane drops with a cinematic, sinister twist.


Rezz

REZZ has carved her own orbit in the electronic universe; a hypnotic force of dark basslines, slow-burning grooves, and trance-inducing visuals. Raised in Canada with roots in Ukraine, she broke out with a style that defies genre but lives somewhere between midtempo, industrial, and alien. Her aesthetic is unmistakable, her presence iconic, and her fanbase deeply devoted. Whether she’s headlining global festivals or dropping mind-bending visuals, REZZ builds full sensory experiences that stick with you long after the music stops.
