Ghastly Strikes Back With Banger Future Bass Track “I’ll Wait”

Everyone’s favorite farmer turned DJ, Ghastly, is back with another groundbreaking track that will leave you in a state of awe. The Bass DJ made clear in an interview with us last month that he was going to be bringing the heat and gearing back more towards his roots in bass/future bass. Being a man of his word, Davey did just that in his latest single “I’ll Wait”. Good News is there’s no need to wait, its here… Get it, cause the title…

Hitting us early on in this one with a Future sound, Ghastly continues to show diversity and ability to manipulate sound. It opens up with a sound that sounds very “Porter-esque” with high-pitched tunes and delivers into a bridge that feels like you may be at a “Shelter Live” tour stop. When the first drop hits, he proves otherwise incorporating tweeked bass sounds in the background and brings them fourth heavily at times. Dropping the beat back into a more tempo’d verse, he brings us to a second drop that blows the top off with heavy bass. It’s an emotional roller coaster and rightfully so, his music often delivers on various emotional levels proving his diversity among bass genres.

Check out Ghastly’s latest single here. It’s a rocker of great proportions that lets his production do all the talking.

The Farm-To-Festival Story Behind Ghastly

That “farmer turned DJ” line isn’t a joke — Ghastly, real name David Lee Crow, actually grew up on a working farm in Buckeye, Arizona, surrounded by hundreds of goats and cattle before he ever touched a set of decks. He moved to Venice Beach to chase music, went through a genuinely rough stretch of homelessness while grinding it out, and eventually landed a residency at Exchange LA. His break came after linking up with Mija at a rave; the track they made together caught Skrillex’s attention and led to releases on OWSLA, which put Ghastly on the map in the bass scene alongside labels like Dim Mak and Mad Decent.

By the time “I’ll Wait” came out in October 2017, that backstory was part of what made Ghastly stand out from the pack of future bass producers — the guy who once mucked stalls on a goat farm was now headlining sets built on the same emotional, genre-hopping production this track shows off.
