Saturday, April 12, 2025 – Wooli

Alright, Tony Price back in the bassment – I mean, at Red Rocks – for Saturday, April 12th, to catch Wooli! Now, after the more mellow vibes of Elderbrook, I knew we were heading back into the heavier end of the electronic music spectrum. My son had prepped me for this one, mentioning something about "headbanging" and "insane drops." Your old man was ready (with earplugs, of course!).

The weather was a bit more typical for a mid-April night in Colorado – a little chilly, especially as the sun went down. Definitely a beanie and gloves kind of night, but the energy of the crowd more than made up for it.

Wooli came out and absolutely unleashed a sonic assault on Red Rocks. From the very first drop, the entire place just erupted. The bass was so intense you could feel it in your chest cavity. It wasn't just loud; it was this deep, guttural sound that just vibrated through everything. My son was in his element, headbanging with the best of them. I found myself nodding along vigorously, trying to keep up with the sheer intensity.

His music is definitely on the heavier side of the dubstep and riddim genres, with these incredibly intricate and often chaotic sound designs. It's not for the faint of heart, but the sheer energy and the technical skill on display were undeniable. The crowd was absolutely loving it, a sea of headbanging and raised fists.

The light show was equally intense, a barrage of strobes, lasers, and visuals that perfectly synced with the aggressive sound. It created this overwhelming sensory experience that was both exhilarating and a little bit terrifying (in a fun way!).

Now, if I have to put on my "sensible dad" hat for a moment… well, it was LOUD. Like, potentially-cause-permanent-hearing-damage loud if you weren't careful. And at times, the sheer intensity of the sound could feel a little overwhelming for someone not as accustomed to this style of music. It wasn't always easy to discern individual melodies or nuances amidst the sonic chaos.

However, the sheer energy and the passion of the crowd were something to behold. There was a real sense of community among the fans, all united by their love for this heavy, intense sound. And Wooli himself clearly knew how to work the crowd, building the energy and delivering those earth-shattering drops that everyone was waiting for.

Overall, Wooli at Red Rocks was an experience. It was a full-on immersion into the world of heavy bass music, with an energy level that was off the charts. It definitely gave me a newfound appreciation for the intensity and the dedication of the fans of this genre. Tony Price, signing off – my ears are still ringing a little, and I might need a nap, but it was definitely a night to remember!
