OBLVYN’s musical journey began at the age of 5 with training in classical piano, later on becoming a guitarist in a pop punk band, and finishing post-secondary with a degree in jazz and pop music. After years of experimenting in different styles of music, OBLVYN has settled on future bass as her primary genre but often steps out of those bounds to create a sound that is unique to her individuality as an artist.  Her talent is undeniable and we are hooked on her latest single “With You“, a colla

The news was broken by his daughter on Facebook on February 27 and the D&B community has been in a bit of a shock state ever since. Perhaps just as much as his own family, Skiba’s friends and colleagues in the world of D&B have been hit especially hard with the news of his passing. His comrades in jump up sup

Rich Furniss has been on a roll this year delivering amazing music, like his previous single “Suddenly” that has been heating up dance floors all over. Now, he’s back with another tight, disco house single “Get Down” that lives up to the name, driven by a tight groove and infectious piano stabs. Cleverly incorporating himself as a character within the late 90’s / early 2000’s themed cover art, the production elements of the single embrace classic house, disco, and a piano rhythm that feels like

Three years since the last VOYD release, SVDDEN DEATH returns with the next installment in this unique audio/visual journey. Whereas the first and ‘first and a half’ volumes of VOYD were only five and nine tracks respectfully (and even 1.5 was 4 originals, 1 VIP, and 4 remixes), VOYD Vol. II is a staggering 18 tracks totaling a full hour of madness. Sound design and arrangement are the names of the game with this release. Though to the untrained ear this might all sound like “just another riddi

NGHTMRE’s long-awaited upcoming debut album is due out later this year, and we finally get the first single, “Fall Into Me.” Bringing this particular trio of NGHTMRE, SLANDER, and Dylan Matthew together for the first time on an original track (NGHTMRE remixed “First Time”), “Fall Into Me” is a true festival classic. It incorporates signature elements from each artist, including NGHTMRE’s meticulous production skills and SLANDER’s distinctive sounds with the juxtaposition between peaceful piano

Following Kendra’s five Top 10 dance hits including “Self Control”, Kendra Erika is a force to be reckoned with in the pop/dance space at the moment.

Expect emotional bu

We don’t get a whole lot of breaks submissions at YEDM anymore, but when we do it’s great to see them from artists like Keith MacKenzie, a name synonymous with the rise of the Florida breaks scene in the 90s and 00s and one of the original architects of progressive breaks full stop. He also happens to be a big part of this DnBoomer’s origin story, so when fellow OG Reid Speed handed over Play Me‘s most recent remix EP for her single with AIRGLO and Metric Man called “The Spark” out this Friday,

Few acts have been at the forefront of modern dance music like Showtek has been for over a decade. The production duo of Dutch brothers Sjoerd & Wouter Janssen have been through many cycles of the dance music industry. From their early days producing UK hardstyle tracks, to their massive mainstage anthems like “Booyah,” “We Like to Party,” “Bad” and “Cannonball;” Showtek have ridden the industry rollercoaster and have emerged as heady veterans. Like the rest of the world, the Janssen brothe

SEXPAYS is very talented in the studio and it shines in his music. His previous single, “Love“, fused together nostalgic house rhythms with a fresh twist. His latest single is no different, as “BANGBANG” offers funky house elements to groove backed by an infectious bass line. An intentional and pronounced retro atmosphere is at the core of “BANGBANG,” boasting an all instrumental feel. SEXPAYS does use a bit of looped vocal to up the flavor of the release – the melodic work brought forth from t

Spring is upon us, and that means more festival announcements. If you happen to be in the midwest in early June and fancy motorsports, then we’ve got the festival for you. GRIDLIFE Midwest Festival returns to Gingerman Raceway in South Haven, Michigan June 3-5 for a weekend of motorsports, camping and some filthy beats. ‘The Music Festival At High Speed’ combines its industry-leading on-track motorsports competition and high caliber car show with top-drawer festival production and two nights of

Nicky Romero is back with his Monocule alias for another dark progressive track, “On My Mind.” This one sees Nicky reunite with fellow Dutchman Tim van Werd. He co-produced the very first Monocule track “Time to Save” back in 2020 (which seems like it was a decade ago.) “On My Mind” follows the familiar, but fool-proof pattern that all Monocule tracks have taken. A quiet, slow buildup, in this case accompanied by a club-ready vocal track. The production is fairly minimal. The drop consists of t

Armin van Buuren and R3HAB have joined forces for a massive collaboration, “Love We Lost.” Just released on Friday, “Love We Lost” is a booming progressive house song that combines the best of both artists for an instant mainstage anthem. Somehow, despite each artists’ longevity in the industry, this is the first official collab between the two Dutch superstars. The track opens with some sparse piano notes allowing Simon Ward’s country-tinged vocals to absolutely shine. It’s quite clear, this i
