After nearly a year of teases, Ray Volpe has finally released his long-awaited track "GAME OVER." As you might imagine from the title, "GAME OVER" is inspired by the sounds of classic video games.

Aussie house producer GONE MAGIC’s latest single ‘FEARS,’ was born out of a moment of intense frustration and artistic disconnect. After a weekend of failed attempts at writing music, he found himself sitting in his studio late on a Sunday night, feeling disheartened and felt the ‘FEARS’ of writer’s block start to settle in. In a moment of clarity, he decided to let go of his anxieties and simply open himself to whatever inspiration might come. Suddenly, creativity flowed, and within a few hours

Rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs has been the subject of recent controversy due to serious allegations against him. Despite these accusations — in fact, one could argue “due to” these accusations —, his music streaming numbers have seen a significant increase, ever since his arrest.

In their latest single “Modern Tragedy,” Cheat Codes taps into the zeitgeist of millennial dating woes, delivering a radio-ready EDM-pop confection that follows a tried and true formula to sink in its catchy hooks. Featuring vocals from Julia Church, the track attempts to elevate standard club fare with a veneer of emotional depth, but ultimately falls short of true innovation. The Los Angeles trio’s production is characteristically slick, building from a pulsing bassline to a predictable cr

In the ever-evolving landscape of electronic music, Circuit Faker emerges as a curious anomaly with his latest single “We Grow Too Slow.” Circuit Faker’s approach to electronic music is decidedly minimalist, eschewing the bombastic drops and frenetic energy often associated with the genre. Instead, “We Grow Too Slow” unfolds at a glacial pace, mirroring its thematic content with a soundscape that feels both expansive and claustrophobic. The track opens with a pulsing synth line that evokes
