Massano Releases Crowd Favorite ‘Something In The Water’

Massano has returned with another powerful and earnest offering. Released on renowned label Tomorrowland Music, ‘Something In the Water’ showcases Massano’s fervent storytelling ability in a profound and relatable manner. Hailing from the outskirts of Liverpool’s thriving electronic underground. Massano (Sam Rose) has rapidly ascended to become one of the most formidable voices in modern melodic techno. Known for a signature “aggressive yet hypnotic” sound that bridges the gap between dark, driving energy and soaring emotional melodies. He first caught the industry’s collective ear with his 2020 breakout hit ‘The Feeling’. Since then, his trajectory has been nothing short of meteoric. Having already cemented his status as an Afterlife mainstay with chart-topping EPs like In My System, Massano has spent the last year further expanding his sonic universe through his own imprint, Simulate. As 2026 unfolds, he continues to dominate global stages. For instance, he has a high-octane B2B residency in Tulum. Moreover, he has upcoming headline slots at Ultra Buenos Aires, EDC Mexico, and the legendary Tomorrowland mainstage. Massano- Something In The Water His latest release, ‘Something In The Water‘ featuring Darla Jade, arrives as a definitive marker of this new chapter. The track blends his technical production prowess with a vocal-driven sensibility. This combination signals his continued evolution at the forefront of the genre. This track marks a sophisticated evolution in Massano’s production palette. He now leans into a more “cinematic-vocal” approach without sacrificing the club-ready grit that built his reputation. He utilizes his signature “aggressive” basslines—typically a blend of a deep, sub-heavy foundation and a gritty, distorted mid-layer—that creates the driving momentum synonymous with the sound. At the same time, collaborating with Darla Jade, Massano treats the vocals not just as a top-line melody, but as an instrument. The vocals are drenched in long-tail reverbs, creating a sense of vast, open space. Simultaneously, he pits the delicate, ethereal nature of the vocal performance against a sharp, sawtooth lead synth. This creates a tension-and-release dynamic that keeps the listener engaged. The crisp high-hats are processed with a slight “bit-crush” to give them a modern, digital edge. Legacy and what’s coming This movement presented through the music is strategic. To headline stages like Tomorrowland or Ultra, a producer needs tracks that can translate to tens of thousands of people at once. ‘Something In The Water’ provides that “hands-in-the-air” moment while maintaining the technical sophistication that his core techno fanbase expects. It isn’t a “sell-out” to the mainstream; it’s a refinement of melodic techno for a massive scale. In summary, Massano has created a track that feels equally at home in an intimate, strobe-lit warehouse as it does on the mainstage of Tomorrowland. The song’s highlights—It’s cavernous spatial depth, aggressive yet polished low-end, and undeniable emotional pull—cement it as a definitive anthem for the year.
