The Protocol has been activated!
Bass Assassin Protocol is the first track to officially showcase the dual identity of The Houseifyer and The Rhythm Shifter – two alter egos born from remix culture and genre experimentation. This track isn’t just a song. It’s a concept drop. A statement. A handshake between two sides of the same musical mind.
Driven by basslines, boom bap patterns and break-infused tempo shifts, it blends the grooves of house with the energy of drum & bass, jungle (at least almost, as we run this in 126-128 BPM), breakcore and beyond.
Backstory: Why it’s called “Bass Assassin Protocol”
When I tried to publish the track on SoundCloud, I hit a wall: their naming policy doesn’t allow track titles to match artist names. Why they enforce this isn’t entirely clear – probably something with metadata indexing and platform compliance.
So, I ditched the intended title – The Houseifyer & The Rhythm Shifter – even though the track was designed to embody both identities. Time was short, so I renamed the track Bass Assassin Protocol to get the release out.
Releasing it under a neutral name also meant I could separate this drop from future official artist profiles – if anything went wrong, nothing else would be affected. Long term, the goal is to verify Houseifyer and Rhythm Shifter as distinct artist identities on Spotify and other platforms.
This track represents a clash of genre obsession: house, hip hop, funk, afrobeat, reggaeton, moombahton – meeting jungle, DnB, hard techno, breakcore and speed house. It’s remix culture funneled into original production. Lyrically, it’s a declaration:
“I take your sound, I flip your form.
No genre safe when I bring that storm.”
Early remixes were labeled “Houseifyed Remix” (Sientelo, Whirlybird, Mr Worldwide, etc). But vocal transcription issues led to renaming the alias from Housifyer to Houseifyer. The name stuck, and so did the idea: bending genre limits until they collapse.
Bass Assassin Protocol carries that evolution forward. Reason-built. AI-polished. Club-engineered.
The protocol doesn’t ask for permission. It detonates.

Drums like fists when I claim that throne.
One hand House, one hand Breaks,
Two gods clash when the system shakes.
