Renowned electronic music producer Eptic has announced an indefinite hiatus from touring, citing exhaustion and a desire to focus on personal well-being.
In a candid post on social media, the Belgian dubstep virtuoso revealed that after years of non-stop travel, he’s stepping back to focus on his health, creativity and personal life. Eptic, known for his innovative sound design and heavy-hitting bass music, explained that the relentless nature of his touring schedule has been impacting his ability to create the music he envisions.
“I’ve been traveling the world pretty much constantly since I was 17 and while I wouldn’t trade those experiences for ANYTHING, I’ve realized I can’t make the music/art that I want if I’m this exhausted and on planes all the time,” he wrote. “I’m going to take some time to finish and write music, work on my health and spend time with family and friends. If that’s a couple of months or longer is up in the air I can’t really say.”
While the hiatus leaves a gap in the touring circuit, Eptic’s fans and fellow artists are eager to see what creative projects emerge from this period of reflection. Whether his break lasts a matter of months or years, the focus remains on quality over quantity—a sentiment resonating deeply within his community.
“Absolute legend and well deserved rest!” NGHTMRE commented. “Your music is a constant source of inspiration. Excited to hear what you write during this rest time!”
“Big ups bro, take that time, make that art,” Blanke added. “You constantly raise the bar for the quality we should be striving for.”
