Pauline Herr Dances On a Razor's Edge in Captivating Single, "Bleeding Out"

Pauline Herr is at her most vulnerable in her new single, "Bleeding Out," a cyberpunkian lullaby for the chronically overthinking.
Crackling with electric tension, the stunning track is out now via SLANDER's Heaven Sent label. True to form, Herr's lyrics cut deep like daggers, carving out a space between self-destruction and rebirth.
"Liminal, I'm caught in the space between / Self-critical, Yeah I'll try to be patient / I'm bleeding out," she belts.
The artwork of Pauline Herr's new single, "Bleeding Out."Heaven Sent
As the track reaches its climax, Herr's promise to "be alright" feels less like hope and more like a battle cry. Meanwhile, her intense production pounds like a relentless heart monitor, tracking the vital signs of a mind on the brink. But it leaps off the cliff at the drop, a dark and disorienting four-on-the-floor sequence that transports us to a purgatorial dancefloor where demons and determination collide.
Herr says she began recording the deeply personal track during a solo retreat to Joshua Tree.
"I forgot my microphone at home, so I recorded the whole vocal on my MacBook Pro," she explains. "There was so much emotion in the original takes that I ended up leaving those in for the final version."

ToMix Shatters the Screen in New Confession Single, "Deal With Reality"

Daring you to confront life unplugged, ToMix is back with a new single, "Deal With Reality (Broke My Phone)."
This pulsing house track is a dark yet energetic descent into the dystopia of today's technology-addicted society. Crashing onto the underground dance scene like a broken smartphone against the pavement., the rising producer has crafted an unlikely anthem for those caught between the dream of virtual escape and the crash landing into the real world.
Driven by the jagged lyric, "Damn I broke my phone, now I gotta deal with reality," the song pulses with the same chaotic energy as late-night streetlights flickering over shattered screens. That lyrical grenade hits like a punchline to a cosmic joke as ToMix's relentless basslines and shadowy synths beautifully blend together like the pixels in those broken screens—erratic yet hypnotic.
Out now on Tchami's venerated Confession imprint, the track is part of a new compilation, Discothèque Records Vol. 5. That record features tracks from Loge21, Control Room, Chuwe and Myles O'Neal, among others.
You can listen to "Deal With Reality (Broke My Phone)" below and find the new single on streaming platforms here.

Justin Irby Drops Soulful House Track, "Your Lips"

Justin Irby has released a new single, "Your Lips," out now on BIJOU's Do Not Duplicate Recordings.
"Your Lips" is what happens when a piano gets drunk on house music and starts spilling secrets. Akin to a whispered promise in a crowded club, the sultry track simmers with an infectious beat that'll have your body moving before your brain catches up.
Evocative lyrics drip like honey over an effervescent house rhythm, lamenting a day bereft of the touch of a partner's lips. Drenched in ache atop a paradoxically uplifting beat, the vocals paint a portrait of yearning so visceral you can almost taste the desperation on your own tongue.
Meanwhile, Irby's pirouetting piano riffs dance through the mix like fingertips trailing across bare skin. He manages to bottle that tantalizing feeling, distilling it into a breezy dance track for touch-starved lovers everywhere to reunite on dancefloors.
"This release is a reminder that you never know where your passion can take you if you stay true to yourself and your sound," Irby tells EDM.com. "Back in 2017, I was just a fan in the crowd at one of BIJOU’s shows. Fast forward to today, and I’m now signed to his label—going from someone who looked up to him to being on his label is surreal. It proves that when you trust your vision and stay authentic, you can end up standing alongside the very artists who inspired you from the beginning."

Aaron Hibell, Alex Wann convene on ‘set me free,’ official single of Ultra Music Festival’s 2024 aftermovie

Some things just go together, like Aaron Hibell‘s trance sensibilities and Alex Wann‘s Afro-inflected signature. It’s no wonder then that “set me free,” the second single from Hibell’s forthcoming debut album, drummed up considerable interest in the weeks preceding its release. And while live play-out from RÜFÜS DU SOL and Adriatique further fanned the flames of anticipation, the song’s appearance as the official single of Ultra Music Festival‘s 2024 aftermovie trained seemingly all eyes (and ears) on “set me free.”
Hibell and Wann’s collaboration is certainly timely; the Afro-infused number extends the dance/electronic genre’s recent streak of high-performing Afro House one-offs, most notably Keinemusik’s “Move” and more recently, HUGEL, Topic, Arash, and Daecolm’s “I Adore You.”
“I love this song because it’s such a clear blend between both mine and Alex [Wann’s]’s styles,” Hibell wrote on Instagram.
Indeed, the classically-trained producer’s inspiriting hybrid of trance and orchestral music complements the deep percussive rhythms and smoldering Afro House style for which Wann has become known (remember, Wann was behind the “Milkshake” remix that dominated dance/electronic’s live circuit last summer, a run that supported his selection as a Dancing Astronaut Artist to Watch in 2024).
“set me free” is the propulsive second preview of what remains to come on Hibell’s LP, following his revelation of its lead single, “morning light,” at the end of August. Judging by the compelling sounds and overall polish of the album’s initial previews, the project already has the makings of a standout dance/electronic LP — a narrative that Hibell will only continue to strengthen as the rollout proceeds via Astralwerks.

EDMTunes Chats with Woo York

Ukrainian duo Woo York has been making waves in the techno scene for over a decade, captivating audiences with their hypnotic soundscapes and powerful live performances. Known for their unique blend of dark, melodic techno, they have carved a distinct niche for themselves in the global electronic music landscape. In this interview, we chat with the enigmatic duo to discuss their creative process, their influences, and their thoughts on the evolution of techno.
What have been the standout memories of 2024 so far?
2024 started on a high note for us, particularly with an unforgettable event in Colombia. We were part of the Afterlife event in Medellín, performing in front of an incredible crowd of around 15,000 people. Just before our set, the skies began to cloud over, and by the time we finished, it was clear that a storm was imminent. In fact, as soon as we wrapped up our set, a huge rain hit, forcing the event to a complete stop. It was one of those moments where everything seemed to be hanging in the balance – imagine flying 15 hours, excited to play for such a massive audience, only to nearly have it canceled due to the weather. But we were fortunate. We managed to perform our set just before the storm took over.
What inspired you to start your upcoming new label OTHERVOICE, and what do you hope to achieve with it?
That’s a good question! Throughout our career, we’ve created a vast and diverse body of work, ranging from hard-hitting, unforgiving tracks to soft, melodic, and dreamy tunes. We’ve never confined ourselves to a single style or direction, and that’s something we’ve always been proud of. However, the process of releasing music often felt restrictive. Typically, you have to approach a record label, submit your music, and then wait to see if it aligns with their taste. If they like it, they’ll release it – if not, you’re back to square one. After years of relying on someone else’s opinion to determine whether our music would see the light of day, we realized it was time to take control. The idea behind OTHERVOICE is to create a platform where we can release music on our own terms. Where we have the freedom to share the sound we believe in, without the need to depend on someone else’s taste. With OTHERVOICE we will release what we want, when we want, and how we want. With OTHERVOICE we will showcase the full spectrum of our sound and connect with listeners directly, without any barriers.
Your new tune ‘Broken Inside’ featuring DJ Preach marks the label’s debut. Can you tell us more about the creative process behind this track?
To fully explain the creative process behind “Broken Inside,” we need to take a trip back about 20 years when we were just kids having fun, fully on into the rave scene. During that time, there was one track with a melody that lodged itself in our minds and never left. That melody became one we could never forget, not just because of the track itself, but because of the memories and emotions it evoked. It was a soundtrack to those formative years, a connection to our past, and a reminder of how far we’ve come. Fast forward to more recent times, we found ourselves in the studio, reminiscing about those days, and thought, why not pay tribute to these memories that meant so much to us? We set out to reinterpret the spirit of that melody – not by creating a remix, but by crafting a homage that honored the original inspiration. Though we didn’t use any samples from the original track, we reimagined that memorable melody through our lens, creating something entirely new. In the end, we produced something that we’re incredibly proud of – a track that not only marks the debut of our label but also serves as a deeply personal tribute to a piece of music that shaped us.
How does “Broken Inside” reflect the sound of OTHERVOICE? What can we expect from the label’s future releases?
As we’ve discussed, we have never confined ourselves to a single color of electronic music. Over the years, we have produced techno in all its various shades – from hardgroove at 140 BPM to softer and melodic ACID lines, exemplified by our album released on Afterlife. You can expect OTHERVOICE to continue this tradition of diversity. We aim to introduce a variety of aspects, all rooted in the WOO YORK ethos. There may be collaborations with other artists in the future, but for now, our priority is to present our sound and vision through the label. 
The name OTHERVOICE suggests a distinct or alternative perspective. What message are you trying to convey through your label and its music?
In an industry where the approval of trendsetters hinges on their personal interests, great pieces of music can never see the light simply because they don’t fit someone else’s idea of what’s “in”. OTHERVOICE is our response to this. By establishing our label, we’re reclaiming the freedom to present music on our terms. We want to showcase a wide range of sounds, reflecting our belief that music should be celebrated for its uniqueness rather than its conformity. 
Melodic Techno has been your signature sound. How do you continue to innovate within this sound while staying true to your roots?
While we’ve always had a deep appreciation for melodies, the genre you are referring to as Melodic Techno wasn’t even defined when we started and the sound landscape has evolved dramatically since then. For us, the essence of innovation lies in continually evolving while staying true to the core principles that define our artistry. On one hand, we remain deeply committed to our vision and on the other hand, we keep an eye on emerging trends and new sonic possibilities. This balance allows us to stay relevant and fresh without losing our authentic voice. 
With OTHERVOICE, do you plan to focus solely on your own music, or are you looking to bring other artists into the fold? Will there be events or showcases?
We plan to host exclusive OTHERVOICE events. These events will feature specially curated lighting, visuals, and stage design, creating an environment where our performance can be presented in a fresh and engaging way. Unlike traditional shows, where we are presented just as “another DJs”, OTHERVOICE will feature us as a Live act, emphasizing our performance style and showcasing our music with the distinct energy and authenticity that define us. If the right opportunities arise, we might explore including other artists in our roster. For now, our goal is to establish OTHERVOICE as a platform for our own creative output.
What are your dreams for OTHERVOICE? Where do you hope to see it in the coming years?
We don’t have a rigid long-term plan. We want to see where the journey takes us. Maybe OTHERVOICE will evolve in unexpected ways, and that’s exciting to us. What matters most is staying true to our path and connecting with people who appreciate what we’re doing. If OTHERVOICE can become a home for music that we love and resonates with listeners, then we’ll consider it a success.

Swedish House Mafia’s ‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ Turns 14

Swedish House Mafia dropped ‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ 14 years ago today, marking a pivotal moment in the EDM Golden Era. Featuring UK rapper Tinie Tempah, this collaboration became an anthem fusing house music with rap, perfectly capturing the spirit of 2010. The nostalgic nature of the lyrics makes the track even more memorable today, with Tinie referencing pop culture staples from the era like magazines (FHM), luxury cars (BMW, Audi TT), and tech favorites like the Blackberry Bold. Released as Swedish House Mafia’s second single, ‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ is a time capsule for fans of the early 2010s, a period when EDM was exploding into mainstream popularity.
One standout moment comes in Tinie Tempah’s 28th bar when he cleverly drops the line, “Like Lindsay Lo’ and Queen Latifah.” This reference to Lindsay Lohan feels especially fitting today, as Lohan is experiencing a career renaissance. Looking back, the track’s playful lyrics and energetic beats reflect a carefree, party-centric era, and they take listeners back to the peak of both EDM and Tinie Tempah’s early success. The blend of house beats and rap flows made ‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ an instant classic, securing Swedish House Mafia’s place as EDM titans and Tinie as a force in the UK rap scene.
‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ appeared on three major albums: Swedish House Mafia’s debut compilation Until One, their second compilation Until Now, and Tinie Tempah’s Disc-Overy. The track earned multi-platinum status across the globe, including 5x Platinum in Sweden, 2x Platinum in Australia, and Platinum in the UK. The song’s influence continues to be felt, as both Swedish House Mafia and Tinie Tempah have left a profound mark on the worlds of EDM and rap.

Dancing With Darcy: The Eerie Urban Legend at the Heart of the 2024 BOO Seattle Festival

There aren't many music festivals that quicken the pulse quite like BOO Seattle. 
Insomniac's Halloween-themed festival annually invites the Pacific Northwest's electronic music community to rave to the grave, but 2024 has the feel of something entirely different.
A lot of themed festivals crumble under the weight of their own ambition, but with a tenured brand like Insomniac at the helm, attendees can expect a full-blown exorcism of the mundane. And this year, an eerie storyline is propelling BOO Seattle like a haunted hayride gone haywire.
The story follows Darcy, an otherworldly spirit inspired by an urban legend of a girl who once disappeared into the forests around Lake Washington.
"It is said one night she felt called into the moonlight’s embrace, but was led astray somewhere along her journey and vanished into the night," reads the festival's website. "Sometime later, she was summoned back to our world by ghost hunters in her shadowy new form—reborn as Seattle's descendent of the dark. To this day she roams the city at night, seeking the force of light that she lost so many moons ago."
Frights aside, BOO Seattle, one of EDM.com's top Halloween festivals of the year, features a massive lineup in 2024.
The two-day fest will feature performances by Kaskade, Rezz, ILLENIUM, Afrojack, Crankdat, SLANDER, Zomboy and Ray Volpe, among other influential electronic music acts. Other can't-miss sets will come from surging house artist Odd Mob, bass music virtuoso Hairitage and EDM.com Class of 2024 star Hedex.
The lineup for the 2024 BOO Seattle festival features Kaskade, ILLENIUM, Afrojack and more.Insomniac Events
These artists will perform across three unearthly stages: Dark Forest, Den of Darkness and The Lighthouse. Attendees can also expect a spate of onsite experiential activations and "paranormal activities," per Insomniac.
BOO Seattle returns to the WaMu Theater October 25-26, 2024. Tickets to the 18+ festival are on sale now.
In the meantime, check out the festival's official playlist below.

AIAIAI Reveals "World's First" Wireless Headphones Designed for DJing

AIAIAI is getting ready to release an enhanced version of one of its most popular products.
Coming soon to a club near you are the TMA-2 DJ Wireless ultra-low latency DJ headphones, which AIAIAI says is the first product of its kind. 
"DJs can confidently free themselves from the cable with no compromise," AIAIAI's website reads.
The innovative audio tech manufacturer claims that typical Bluetooth headphones have a latency of around 250 ms while their W+ Link technology will bring the latency below 10 ms. In addition to the latency improvements, the company says the TMA-2 DJ Wireless weighs less than half a pound and will have a 25-hour battery life.
AIAIAI also highlighted the headphones' noise cancellation capabilities, saying they are "tuned to clearly present bass and treble details in loud venues." They're also outfitted with on-ear cushions made from memory foam covered in soft PU leather so "high sound isolation blocks out unwanted noise."
AIAIAI says the TMA-2 DJ Wireless will arrive sometime in early 2025 at a price point of $280. You can learn more about the wireless headphones and register for updates here.

Ticketmaster Hacked, Users Report Stolen Tickets

Concertgoers have been reporting that their tickets have been mysteriously disappearing from their Ticketmaster accounts. This alarming issue has come to light following a data breach earlier this year.
Victims of the ticket theft have reported losing tickets to various events, including concerts and musicals. Some have incurred significant financial losses due to the disappearance of their tickets. One victim, reported that her family lost over $1,200 in tickets that were transferred to an unknown account. Another one lost Pink concert tickets that she had received as a gift, and a third victim had her $3,500 Taylor Swift tickets stolen from her account.
The increasing number of reports suggests that the data breach may have exposed a significant number of user accounts. The “ShinyHunters” hacker group claimed to have accessed 1.3 terabytes of data from Ticketmaster, including sensitive information like credit card numbers and payment details.
The incident has led to a class-action lawsuit against Live Nation and Ticketmaster, alleging anticompetitive practices. Ticketmaster claims that user passwords were not compromised in the breach, but the growing number of affected users raises concerns about the security of the platform.

PREMIER: SHAB Follows Announcement Of 2nd Album With New Single ‘Swerve’

Hot on the heels of the announcement of her upcoming album, ‘One Suitcase’, SHAB releases her 2nd single from the album, ‘Swerve’. The single comes shortly after the release of ‘Afterglow’ and is a song that blends romance with a heavy club beat.
Co-composed by Damon Sharpe, JHart, and SHAB herself, ‘Swerve’ delves into the excitement of a new romantic relationship, turning the initial uncertainties into a playful game for two. Pairing those romantic elements with a heavy club beat makes it an instantly addictive dance-floor filler, compelling listeners to move while also resonating on a deeper level. Its dark, edgy, and alluring vibe is meticulously crafted to captivate and enthral, creating an atmosphere that’s both thrilling and intimate.
SHAB’s personal story is just as compelling as her music. She escaped Iran as a young girl, arriving in New York alone, speaking only Farsi and German. Despite those challenges, she graduated from university and briefly attended law school before pursuing music full-time. Now, SHAB is using her platform to advocate for women’s rights in Iran.
Her career has been marked by major milestones. In 2023, SHAB’s collaboration with hip-hop legend Fat Joe on ‘VooDoo’ became a chart-topping sensation. Her debut album ‘Infinite Love’ earned critical praise, and she has continued to grow her fanbase globally with millions of streams and views.
SHAB has also shined on stage, performing in international tours and opening for JLS during their 2023 arena tour. With her upcoming album ‘One Suitcase’, SHAB is set to continue her meteoric rise while inspiring others with her remarkable journey.

Avicii’s Belongings Auction Raises $750,000 For Charity

An auction of items belonging to the late DJ Avicii has raised a significant sum for charity — in fact, the amount accrues to close to three-quarters of a million dollars ($750,000). The sale, held in Stockholm on Tuesday, happened at Auktionsverk in front of a crowded audience, and featured over 260 personal items, including clothing, instruments, and memorabilia.
Bids poured in from around the world, with at least bidders from 40 countries. A 2015 Fender Telecaster was among the highest-grossing items, selling for SEK 240,000, or approximately $23,000. Other items that attracted high bids included a Martin acoustic guitar, headphones, a Miami Marlins cap, and a contact sheet of portraits by Mark Seliger.
All proceeds from the auction will go to the Tim Bergling Foundation, established in memory of Avicii. The foundation aims to raise awareness about mental health and suicide prevention among young people.
Cecilia Gave, CEO of Stockholms Auktionsverk, expressed her satisfaction with the auction’s success and the Foundation’s ability to connect with a younger audience. Many fans shared their excitement about purchasing items related to Avicii, with one fan planning to display the leather jacket he bought in his music studio.
We’re happy to see Avicii’s legacy over time has always gravitated, one way or another, to bringing the community together. We’re glad to call Tim one of the most influential acts EDM has ever had.
