"Laserbeam" serves as the second single from Volpe's forthcoming EP. According to a press release shared with EDM.com, it all started with a nondescript email to fellow dubstep virtuoso Excision.
"I mentioned in the email how 'Laserbeam' would be cool to play with lasers in his high-production sets with crazy rigs," Volpe explained. "After my set at Thunderdome where I was support for Excision, I went to the crowd to watch Excision perform & suddenly heard the beginning of 'Laserbeam.' The reaction from the fans in the venue as the song dropped was loud & clear."
"Needless to say, I was also freaking out," Volpe continued. "I filmed the whole thing & posted it the next day on social media, which went viral, currently tallying over 800,000 views on my own platforms; Excision, ILLENIUM, Black Tiger Sex Machine, & many others have posted as well since then, accumulating a total of over 10,000,000 views today. I thought to myself that this is the craziest thing ever and that it couldn’t possibly get any better.”
