Legendary rocktronic artist Sullivan King has just released his powerful new single “The Beginning” on Monstercat Uncaged. This track marks a significant shift in King’s musical journey, blending rock, heavy metal, drum & bass, dubstep, and riddim into a seamless and energetic anthem. Known for his innovative approach to electronic music, King’s latest release captivates with its dynamic and genre-defying composition.
“The Beginning” starts with soft melodies and compelling lyrics, gradually building intensity. King’s iconic scream-singing, paired with robust drumming and electric guitar riffs, transitions into an intense drum solo, culminating in a high-energy drum & bass drop. This track showcases King’s ability to blend different musical styles, offering a preview of his upcoming major project.
This multi-talented artist’s career achievements range from supporting Avenged Sevenfold’s 2024 arena tour this past March, to amassing over 300 million Spotify streams, and performing at major festivals like Tomorrowland, Download UK, and Red Rocks. Additionally, King has joined forces with the likes of rock stalwarts Papa Roach and Atreyu, as well as bass icons Excision and Subtronics on collaborative songs.
Upcoming performances include Elements, North Coast, Shrine, EDC China, Lost Lands, Freaky Deaky, Goldrush, Dancefestopia, and Sziget Festival in Budapest. “The Beginning” is guaranteed to be a staple during these sets, representing a new era for King, bridging the realms of rock and drum & bass.

Raised in upstate New York, I was always a big fan of music but never really listened to electronic music. Within the first month of attending Florida State University and meeting some new friends, I was introduced to the rave scene. After seeing Ekali at my first show, I was instantly hooked. Since then, I have dived into every subgenre of electronic music, picked up DJing, and mixed for clubs and different entertainment events in Tallahassee. Once graduating with degrees in marketing and hospitality, I was hired for a sales position. However, I recently decided to leave my sales job to pursue my dream of working in the music industry. Currently, I run Magnetic Magazine's Melodic Techno Charts, along with my role as a PR and marketing specialist for different artists and labels. Some of my favorite artists are REZZ, Kyle Watson, TOBEHONEST, San Pacho, Josh Baker, HUGEL, ARTBAT, Vintage Culture, Ganja White Night, CamelPhat, Green Velvet, Jungle, Milky Chance, Paco Versailles, Franc Moody, and RÜFUS DU SOL. My favorite festivals are Hulaween (by far), EDC Orlando, and all the different venues during Miami Music Week. Outside of music, I love sports (especially hockey, soccer, tennis, basketball, and spike ball), going to the movies, working out, sushi, Chick-fil-A, food in general, and hanging with my dog Maui and my cat Loki. Feel free to reach out to me via my email or on IG, I love expanding my network of friends and business opportunities!
