BARELYALIVE

In 2013, two childhood friends from Massachusetts named Matt and Willie teamed up to pursue their dreams in music—and quickly took the dubstep world by storm. Known for their high-energy sound and technical precision, BARELY ALIVE spent the next decade cementing themselves as staples in the scene, touring globally and delivering a relentless stream of heavy-hitting releases. After mastering their craft as producers, the inventive duo turned their attention to technology, setting out to create a robotic assistant. In a bizarre twist of fate, they fused their consciousness with artificial intelligence, only to perish in a freak accident. Today, their legacy lives on through their animatronic surrogate, WATT, who continues to create and perform at an otherworldly level. Now in 2026, BARELY ALIVE are ushering in a new era—bringing brostep back with a modern, explosive edge while pushing the boundaries of live performance. Their Overdrive 360 Laser Experience Tour is full-sensory, combining a cutting edge visual experience, immersive production, and the signature chaos fans have come to expect. With a revitalized sound and one of the most ambitious live shows in bass music, BARELY ALIVE proves they’re not just part of dubstep’s legacy—they’re actively reshaping its future.
