If you’ve seen Nero in the past five years, you’ve only seen Joe Ray behind the decks. Dan and Alana got married and had their first child in 2018, the same year they also debuted their own side project, The Night. Joseph Ray also began releasing solo material on Anjunadeep that same year. Even with the group spreading apart, Nero as a group continued to produce new music and announced their third album was complete in August 2021. (No news on that since, however.) But we could very well hear

This Fall, Grammy-winning live electronic act NERO will make their grand return to stages across the U.S. for their headline Into The Unknown Tour supporting their highly-anticipated third studio album, Into The Unknown, out August 16. Bringing their avant-garde musicality and transportive experience to iconic venues like New York’s Webster Hall and Los Angeles’ The Novo, the 16-date tour will feature a brand new hybrid live set performed by band members Daniel Stephens and Joe Ray.

GRAMMY-winning trio NERO just released their long-awaited third studio album, Into The Unknown. The album arrives nine years after its predecessor, Between II Worlds, and after much anticipation built with singles ‘Truth,’ ‘Blame You,’ ‘Draw Energy,’ ‘Too Many Questions,’ and ‘Solar.’ Into The Unknown is NERO’s post-apocalyptic tale of humanity’s dichotic destiny, where science and fantasy, beauty and brutality, creation and destruction meet in harmony. It’s reflection of the stories NERO fo

It’s been a long time since Nero performed as a full trio, with Joe Ray, Dan Stephens, and Alana Watson taking the stage together. Since around 2018, Joe Ray has been taking full reign of the solo Nero DJ sets as Dan and Alana got married and had their first child in 2018, the same year they also debuted their own side project, The Night. Joseph Ray also began releasing solo material on Anjunadeep that same year. This past weekend, the trio reunited at Red Rocks supporting deadmau5 on the lates

NERO are getting ready to bring their American fans Into The Unknown this fall. Back in October, the legendary electronic music trio announced that their third album would arrive sometime this year. After the release of singles "Truth," "Blame You" and "Draw Energy," they've finally revealed that Into The Unknown will release on August 16th, 2024. In case news of their first album since 2015's Between II Worlds wasn't enough for you, NERO's Daniel Stephens, Joe Ray and Alana Watson have revealed

deadmau5 and NERO haven’t worked together in an official collaboration ever, but the UK duo-turned-trio has remixed the Canadian mau5 once before. Way back in 2009, NERO delivered a remix for “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff” that still sends chills down the spine whenever it’s played out. Now, 13 years later, the combo returns to serve a fresh remix of “XYZ,” the lead single from the We Are Friends Vol. 11 label compilation due out on mau5trap later this year. NERO managed to bring the “XYZ” original down fr

While reminiscing about Tomorrowland 2011, an exciting moment was shared on the @edmflashback page: Avicii performing on the mainstage. The clip that was shared was of Avicii playing the song, Enough Is Enough, which he collaborated on with NERVO to create. In the video, you can see the beautiful feeling it brings to the crowd and Nora in Pure in the crowd vibing to Avicii’s set.

NSD began to gain notoriety around the time of Zomboy’s Game Time EP in 2011, with The Dead Symphonic proving a formidable follow up the year after. But label head SKis
