Hear Levity & Tape B’s Full Bass Bomb b2b From North Coast 2026
It's 90 minutes of pure stank face from LeviTape's set at the Chicagoland fest.
In early September, the Chicago area was abuzz as the 16th annual North Coast dance festival returned to SeatGeek Stadium in Bridgeview, Illinois. Featuring a lineup of over 50 artists, the three-day event showcased some of the most electrifying bass-forward talent in the industry. Headliners included Crankdat, Mary Droppinz, Illenium, Wooli, Richard Finger, Alleycvt, GRiZ, Level Up, Slander, Porter Robinson, Fisher, Sammy Virji, Jigitz, and many more Chicago-based DJs.
North Coast 2026 took a moment to remember the past when the group Levity was working at a burger joint. The trio made their Coachella debut with a dubstep set that night. The Chicago-born Levity, along with Turkish-American producer Tape B, joined forces for a standout b2b performance. Together, they formed LeviTape, delivering a set that was a sonic rollercoaster of glitches, wobbles, and weirdness.
Throughout their set, they incorporated samples from iconic tracks like Cherish's "Do It to It," Eminem's "My Name Is," and ABBA's "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)," all given a dubstep twist.
The pair had been on the road together all summer, headlining 12 dates across the country in an amphitheater tour. Their co-headlining runs featured solo sets for each artist, followed by a climactic Levity b2b Tape B performance. After North Coast, Levity will continue their tour with dates at Ultra Taiwan and San Diego’s Temper Festival.
Meanwhile, Tape B will perform at Breakaway Houston, Philadelphia’s Hijinx Festival, and more. North Coast, produced by Chicago-based concert and festival operator Collectiv Events, also contributed $1 from every ticket sold to support under-resourced communities in the Chicago area.
