Artist: Micah Martin Title: VHS Label: Create Music Group Release date: September 25, 2026
Grief for the person you used to be runs through "VHS," the new single from Micah Martin, out now - and the fourth track revealed from his debut album "All I Need," arriving November 20. Where "Burn Them All" with OddKidOut hit with heavy guitar riffs and jump-up drum & bass, "VHS" sits on the electronic and alternative end of Micah's Rocktronic spectrum, pairing electronic drums and synth production with his rock-oriented vocal identity. The result lands as nostalgic alternative-electronic rather than straight EDM or straight pop-punk - a pop-rocktronic cut built around the memory of a slower, simpler world, and the wish to pull those years off a shelf like an old tape. The track was produced by WALSCHLAGER, an emerging producer carving out his lane in the modern bass and club scene with a gritty, high-impact sound design style: aggressive low-end, sharp percussion work and dark, dancefloor-driven energy that brings a raw, high-energy aesthetic built for both club and live settings. Micah also composed and produced on the record himself, shaping it alongside WALSCHLAGER and carrying it over the finish line. It follows "Tomorrow's Over" with HIGHSOCIETY, "Burn Them All" with OddKidOut and "Thrown Away," continuing to map out the range of a 17-track record sitting at the intersection of electronic-dance and rock-metal music - and the bridge Micah has spent the last decade building between the biggest names in electronic bass music and the punk-rock and metal worlds he came up in.
"'VHS' is a letter to the kid I used to be. It's about grieving the version of yourself that existed before life got so overwhelming & sometimes chaotic... before deadlines, expectations, and the weight of growing up. Sometimes I wish I could pull those memories off a shelf like an old VHS tape and spend one more day in a world that felt slower, simpler, and full of possibility. I think we've all had moments where we miss who we were just as much as where we were." - Micah Martin about "VHS" single

Micah Martin
Micah Martin has spent the last decade doing something few artists manage: moving credibly between the biggest names in electronic bass music and the punk-rock and metal scenes he came up in. He first made his name fronting rock band The Zealots, which he formed in 2014 in the Quad Cities and took on the road opening for acts like I Prevail, Memphis May Fire, Pop Evil, Theory of a Deadman and Drowning Pool, alongside festivals such as Rock Fest Wisconsin. When the pandemic brought the band to a close in 2020, Martin channeled his rock-honed voice into electronic music. Over the past ten years, that voice has become an unmistakable force in the scene, featured on collaborations with SLANDER, Zomboy, Kayzo, PhaseOne, Rebelion and Sub Zero Project, and carried to stages including Red Rocks, The Hollywood Palladium, The Gorge, EDC Las Vegas and Orlando, and Lost Lands. Today, Micah is a daily host on Insomniac Radio, anchoring its bass-focused IMPACT channel and BASSRUSH Radio since the platform launched at EDC Las Vegas 2025. He has also stepped out as a DJ in his own right. After learning the craft in 2024, Micah took his first official gigs supporting RIOT on their 2025 "The Machine Tour" - including Grave Rave shows with Emo Nite in Dallas and at Academy LA, and a Montreal date with Loud x Clear - before supporting yetep on his 2026 album tour. He has since performed for Live Nation Canada's Escapade Music Festival in Ottawa and a headline NYC debut at Brooklyn Meadows with ULTRA DNB just recently. His debut rock EP, "MICAH MARTIN" - featuring AJ of The Dangerous Summer and TJ Minor - marked the start of his own artist era, fusing soaring guitars and anthemic hooks with emotional storytelling. Now, with debut album "All I Need" on the way, Micah is bringing both halves of his story together at full volume.
