Gamer – GRX, Bassjackers Martin Garrix has done several amazing collaborations under his GRX alias, but the first ever GRX track is one that not many people have come across. Released in 2013 on Doorn Records, ‘Gamer’ was an epic collaboration with fellow upcoming stars of EDM, Bassjackers, which took on a heavy big room house sound. Despite this songs powerful bass and really creative lead sound, it’s one of the very few songs by Garrix that has less than a million streams on Spotify. Take a tr

Avicii’s Instagram announced the news this week and had this to say: The new

We recently sat down with one of the legends of Electronic music for a chat. Paul van Dyk has been a towering figure in the Electronic music scene for literal decades. His distinctive blend of genres and the different countless anthems he released during the golden era of Trance captured the hearts of millions worldwide, including the heart of who’s writing this piece. Van Dyk’s journey began in the early 1990s when he started experimenting with production in his hometown of Berlin. His

After a strong debut earlier this summer in the City of Angels, Brunch Electronik will return this weekend to sunny Southern California for its final summer soiree.  The Spanish import, which has been rallying dance music fans for over a decade, landed stateside last July after offshoot events in São Paulo, Madrid, Paris, Lisbon and Lima. An international sensation, Brunch Electronik focuses on day-to-night events with atmospheric enhancements, art installations, quality food options, a vendor v

The best dayclub in New York City, with its stunning cityscape views and vibrant atmosphere, provided the perfect backdrop for the American DJ’s euphoric set. From the moment Audien stepped onto the stage, the crowd was hyped. His signature blend of melodic house and progressive trance filled the air, transporting listeners to a euphoric

Louis The Child today released a new album, The Sun Comes Up, but it apparently only scratches the surface of their music vault. Beloved for their bubbly dance-pop, Louis The Child's Robby Hauldren and Freddy Kennett are currently sitting on an unreleased, full-length hip-hop album, EDM.com has learned. The duo wrote each beat and even rapped their own lyrics, according to a media alert. The duo produced the project in Malibu, where they temporarily lived prior to today's release of The Sun Come

Swedish House Mafia might just give you your big break—if you can impress them with a remix of their track "Finally," that is. Teaming up with Alicia Keys, Swedish House Mafia's Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso reimagined Kings of Tomorrow's 2001 dance classic of the same name last month. Now, they've invited their fellow producers to remix the track by releasing its stems. To raise the stakes, Swedish House Mafia promised an official release of their favorite rendition of the high-p

We’ve got a great Garage/Hybrid Dance tune for you today. ESPER, a French-born, California-based producer and artist, has just released his new track ‘These Nights (LA Lovin’)‘. The single, which features the vocals of Ave Savage, has just been lifted from the upcoming Joie De Vivre EP, to come out later in the year on Seeking Blue. ESPER has gained significant recognition in recent years. His song ‘Good Things’ was featured in a Netflix ad on TikTok and has amassed close to 100 million

BRANDON and No/Me have joined forces for a new collaboration, "Lost & Found London," out now via Don Diablo's Hexagon imprint. A sonic love letter to London's underground, the track captures fleeting moments of urban freedom—hopping barriers, chasing beats, embracing the unexpected—through heady house music. It's both an ode to nocturnal self-indulgence and a soundtrack for strangers to become friends, linked by the gravitational pull of all things four-on-the-floor. A seductive vocal perfor

Good news comes from the Tech bubble today. Apple’s latest operating system rolled out for their products, iOS 18, brings a significant improvement for iPhone users who frequently text with Android users. With the addition of RCS (Rich Communication Services) support, these chats will now have features like high-resolution media, typing indicators, and read receipts.   This is a welcome development, as iMessage conversations have long been superior to SMS-based chats. While RCS still lacks s

The all-female EP represents for us, in many ways, how the future of Trance is being woven. Yes we are two days late. No we are not by any means less excited. If anything, we spent a proper chunk of the last 48 hours adding to Amy Wiles‘ Spotify play count. Matter of fact, we could do the same today. The UK-based producer has just released the Here I Am EP, a collection of five impeccable tunes which battle on all fronts of the Trance sphere, and we can’t get enough of them. In case you’

At this stage in their illustrious careers, it's clear that Chris Lake and Disclosure intend more on shredding the envelope of house music than pushing it. That's more clear than ever after today's release of their new collaboration, "in2minds," out now via Astrawerks and Lake's Black Book Records. It's house music stripped to its naked core, then rebuilt with a dark, postmodern edge that cuts through the noise of its formulaic counterparts in the genre. As the track unfolds, it reveals layers o

Brazil’s rising star Klean, a 21-year-old producer with a stand out sound and knack for hooky beats is leading off the run up to a new 4-track EP with a bumping lead single. After catching Rihanna’s ear with his “Rude Boy” remix at the Super Bowl, he’s been busy in the studio, recently remixing DJ Snake and Peso Pluma’s “Taka” and now dropping his own single, “Sem Parar.” The track and leads single from his upcoming 4-track EP literally means “Non-Stop” in Portuguese and blends baile funk’s
