On Deck and Skemaddox are at it again, each bringing their distinctive drive to the forefront.

At the same time, Skemaddox is carving out his presence in the Los Angeles circuit, hustling his way into every exclusive venue worth mentioning, and steadily building a reputation that’s becoming sharper and louder across the tech house scene.
Their new track, “Telling Me Lies,” hits like a jolt of electricity straight to the chest. Released under 2Dutch Records, it doesn’t ask for permission—it’s pure, relentless, late-night adrenaline. The synths pulse like a heartbeat that won’t quit, and the vocal hook commands attention, dragging you willingly into the darkness. The production is tight and precise, all while the eerie ambiance wraps around you. This is the kind of track that thrives in the murky depths, unapologetic, raw, and entirely a product of the duo’s collective chaos.
Accolades are far and wide with these two. On Deck had great experiences with majors in the past—certainly playing a roll regarding his skillset today. Skemaddox, meanwhile, keeps his foot on the gas in Hollywood, taking his rise to the next level with every release. Together, they’ve got the strength, the chemistry, and the grit to make “Telling Me Lies” reach the audience it was meant to.
