In a truly marvelous display of music, Swedish DJ Eric Prydz delivered a great set for Day 1 of BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend 2024. Also known for his Techno and Trance aliases Cirez D and Pryda, the DJ debuted lots of new music, ahead of his upcoming HOLO show debuts in Argentina and Colombia.
Radio 1’s Big Weekend
BBC Radio 1 brought out yet a brand new stage for this year’s Big Weekend. Many incredible artists brought their A-game, including Hanna Laing, Diplo, and Sonny Fodera. Of course, the Mouseville Records founder had the honor to close out their new music stage on their annual live show. The set consists of Prydz’s signature sounds, including his unique progressive rhythms and euphoric synths. However, lots of the melodies have been unheard of. We are thrilled to experience new Prydz music, especially building up to his HOLO show premiers in South America later this fall.

Listen to Disclosure's Sun-Kissed House Track, "She's Gone, Dance On"

Following a string of viral moments, Disclosure's summery single 'She's Gone, Dance On" has finally hit streaming platforms.
The sun-kissed house track, which samples a 1978 song by the late Italian composer Ennio Morricone, first broke online when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were spotted dancing to it during Dom Dolla's set at Coachella.
"She’s Gone, Dance On" is an irresistible summertime hit. Disclosure expertly interpolate the infectious sample throughout the dancefloor-ready track, spicing up its production with their anthemic ambiances and bright synth chords.
A tune "just made for clubs and DJs" according to Disclosure, "She’s Gone, Dance On" marks the brotherly duo's first single since their fourth studio album Alchemy. That record dropped last year before one of its singles, the breakbeat gem "Higher Than Ever Before," nabbed a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Recording.

GorillaT on His Sudden Life Pivot and What it Takes to Create a Brand from Scratch

From being a college athlete to producing his own music, GorillaT made lots of noise—literally—in the dubstep scene in 2023. The 22-year-old artist, whose real name is Tate Warner, started making electronic music just about three years ago and now finds himself performing on headlining tours, festival lineups and popular stages like Excision's "The Thunderdome."
For many in the electronic dance music community—or any community for that matter—there is often a show, moment or song that sparks a deeper passion for it. Warner found this to be true when he went to a Subtronics show around three years ago. GorillaT tells EDM.com that his origin story goes like this: "I went to that Subtronics concert, my friends kind of dragged me there, I remember not really wanting to be there too bad, and then the next day I went home and sold my PS4 and like, half of my belongings so that I could buy Ableton."
After downloading the music production software, the next step was figuring out his sound and means of promotion. Discussing his initial sound, Warner highlights that because Subtronics was his first show, he spent a long time trying to emulate his music.
"When an artist finds an artist that just changes their lives like that, you spend the next year or two trying to make songs exactly like them," he explains. "A lot of my early songs around those times were more me trying to figure out how to make full songs in the style that I wanted."
This imitation game didn't last for long, though. "I understand production now to a level where I give online classes, one-on-ones, I mix down people's songs, I have a Patreon," says Warner, who now describes his sound first and foremost as "wonky," the word appearing in the titles of multiple songs. "Once I figured out what style I liked I could just do it by myself in terms of my own sound design and the way that I like melodies to kind of sit together."
Despite his success, Warner didn’t always want to be a musician. In fact, he has been a student athlete at Loyola University of New Orleans for the past four years and just recently dropped out to pursue his music career. Now, the only thing that lives on from his past swimming dreams are "a few state records," he says.
Growing up in the sublime city of Golden, Colorado, a city near Denver and the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, the swimmer-turned-musician was given access to a lively EDM scene that would ultimately cultivate a foundation for the dubstep music he wanted to create. "It’s been in the culture of where I’m from," says Warner, whose experiences at shows by SVDDEN DEATH, Wooli, Virtual Riot and Infekt would eventually influence his own future sound.
About halfway into this three-year journey is when Warner found his music garnering more listeners, recognition and fans. His first single "Stoned Ape Theory" was released just about two years ago in 2022, and after releasing 17 other singles on streaming platforms, his first full album came out in late 2023, marrying many of those tracks under one name: Tales Of A Stoned Ape. GorillaT had his first-ever headline show in July in Minneapolis and in 2023 alone has performed at Forbidden Kingdom, Apocalypse and Lost Lands.

So how does someone make this much wonky noise in the span of just a few years? We all have an inkling of the answer to this question: social media. Warner attributes much of his success to the various platforms that fall under the umbrella term.
"I just don’t see a better way to promote myself as an artist," he says. “To do what a record label would’ve done for $10,000 I can just get on my phone and spend a few days posting videos."
With this strategy, Warner finds himself quickly gaining velocity in the industry. "The people that truly understand that are the people that are going to have a way easier time breaking into this," he says.
Warner values social media not only as a marketing tool, but also as a way to show transparency and gratitude to fans, collaborators and the venues who book him.
"These people make a living for me!" says Warner. "I wouldn’t be able to do this without all the fans."
As a result, he finds that he is easily approachable at shows when he ventures into the crowd. He also finds that a perfect concoction of social connection with fans and being a perceptive DJ results in an explosion of positive feedback.
"I feel like half the reason they come out to these shows is because they want to see you onstage—of course they love your music. The baseline of all of this is perfecting your craft, and from there you can use social media to do whatever you want really.”
To supplement people seeing him onstage, Warner tries to read each room thoroughly so the crowd likes what they hear. "It seems like every place I go, they vibe with just slightly different things that I’m dropping and that’s why it’s good to be a good DJ and be able to switch stuff up.”
GorillaT.c/o Gridlock Management
With the new attention his music and DJing is receiving comes new collaborations and knowledge. Warner says that these collaborations aided in the creation and evolution of GorillaT’s sound and brand. “It’s so awesome to collab with people because I always learn so much about their work flow and what works for them,” he says.
Upcoming collaborations Warner hints at include work with ProbCause, Hostage Situation, Ahee and Steller. New visuals and merchandise are also in the works that feel happy, trippy and welcoming, he says.
With a growing platform, though, comes growing scrutiny and a greater chance for burnout. Warner highlights that a career contingent on a computer and internet can easily blur the line between work and play.
"It always feels like play until there are deadlines,” Warner says with a laugh while stressing the importance of self-care. "I’m able to make the best music when everything surrounding the music is on the right path."
It looks to Warner like this momentum is not going to slow anytime soon—and it also hasn't quite sunk in. "I don’t think I believe it yet," he says in disbelief. "I don’t think it’ll ever change, that aspect of how grateful I feel for all of this."
Fans of GorillaT can catch him at upcoming performances at Ottawa's Escapade Music Festival and Excision's Paradise Blue in Cancún, among other tour stops in 2024.

Framework Presents Solomun, A 6-Hour Set At Exposition Park

When two powerhouses in the underground music scene unite, you know something extraordinary is about to unfold. Framework, renowned for curating unique and immersive music experiences, has collaborated with the legendary Solomun to present a 6-hour extended set at Exposition Park in Los Angeles. This highly anticipated event on Saturday, June 1, is set to be a night to remember, spotlighting not only Solomun’s exceptional talent but also featuring two female powerhouse DJ/producers, Nala and Julia Sandstorm.
Located in the south region of Los Angeles, Exposition Park is a sprawling 160-acre urban oasis that serves as the perfect backdrop for this one-of-a-kind event. With its lush green spaces, iconic landmarks, and rich history, the park sets the stage for an unforgettable night of music and celebration. As the sun sets over the city, the sounds of Solomun, Nala, and Julia Sandstorm will fill the air, creating a magical atmosphere that is sure to captivate all in attendance.

His return to Los Angeles is a momentous occasion, and the addition of Nala and Julia Sandstorm only adds to the excitement surrounding this event. Get your tickets HERE!
The Sound of Solomun
For Solomun, music isn’t just a tool to make people dance. Music is as diverse as life itself: many different shades, moments, and memories to be made. Music and emotions have a strong connection, and this relationship is evident in Solomun’s performances. His “Solomun +1” residency at Pacha Ibiza began in a unique way, with him moving the DJ booth to the center of the club to be closer to the audience and introducing the concept of performing with only one friend. Since its start in 2013, “Solomun +1” has become well-known in Ibiza, with its “Solomun +LIVE” events on the island and +1 editions worldwide, including Berlin, New York, and Tulum. This same energy inspired the founding of his music label, Diynamic, in 2006. Diynamic has been a stepping stone for many artists’ careers, all thanks to a group of like-minded individuals supporting each other. Solomun’s genuine approach to entertaining has made him highly sought after, proving that the music is more important than the venue it’s played at. His sets, remixes, and productions bring people together, and his message remains consistent: “Nobody is not loved.”

The filing accuses Live Nation and Ticketmaster of monopolizing the live events industry by driving out rivals and pressuring venues that work with Ticketmaster competitors. This mirrors the DOJ’s allegations in its recent filing aimed at breaking up the two companies.
“Over the past three decades, Live Nation and Ticketmaster collectively built empires in several key markets within the live concert and event economy,” the lawsuit claims. It states the merger led the entity to dominate US concert promotion, primary ticketing, and secondary ticketing markets.
On Friday, the court assigned the case to US District Judge Arun Subramanian, who has a background in antitrust lawsuits. Attorneys at Israel David and Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd represent the plaintiffs in the class action.
Live Nation has dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuit as “baseless,” arguing that the live events market is more competitive than ever. Legal experts note Live Nation’s defense may hinge on the DOJ’s prior approval of its Ticketmaster acquisition. The DOJ’s new case differs from 2010 by focusing on more expansive anti-competitive conduct by Live Nation. The government argues Live Nation’s failure to follow original merger guidelines warrants the current legal actions.
As the legal battles unfold, the pressure on Live Nation and Ticketmaster is likely to intensify, potentially reshaping the live events and ticketing landscape.

Robert and Lyric Hood release their fourth Floorplan studio album ‘The Master’s Plan’

Robert and Lyric Hood announce the release of their fourth studio album, ‘The Master’s Plan,’ which will land on Luke Solomon’s Classic Music Company imprint on Friday, June 21st. Spanning 18 crafted house and techno tracks, Robert and Lyric playfully juxtapose the light and dark of their signature sound, navigating a spectrum of genres and styles on this highly anticipated body of work.
“In these troubled times, we are grateful to be able to share our music with the world. Especially the dance community. We hope this album will uplift and invoke you to dance.” – Robert Hood
“I want people to feel inspired and empowered, but most of all, to feel the love of God and his connection in every track. This album was made for the fans that love house music as much as we do.” – Lyric Hood
Between the two of them frequenting clubs and festivals worldwide together, Robert still reigning supreme as the techno vanguard, and Lyric further expanding her solo discography and DJ activity, the duo operates on a divine level of blood harmony. The father-daughter pairing demonstrates their unparalleled outlook on electronic music, their generational gap only strengthening their breadth of musical inspiration on The Master’s Plan.
From the signature gospel joy of ‘We Give Thee Honour,’ to the tough club beats of ‘What A Friend,’ right through to the dreamy house soundscapes of ‘Feel It’ and boundless warehouse energy of ‘Summa Funk,’ features from Detroit vocalists like trio Dames Brown, Earthtone (Eunice Hood) and Lowell Pye demonstrate an album with its sound deeply rooted in Floorplan’s Motor City home. With Classic remaining the duo’s musical home for some time, since their acclaimed solo debut on the imprint in 2021 ‘Right There/ Holy Ghost’, it seems only right that esteemed label-mate Honey Dijon would also feature, adding her signature allure to ‘Fake & Unholy.’
“The combination of wonderful people and wonderful music is always the absolute top for me. Floorplan is an unstoppable force that stays in their lane and delivers dancefloor music in a way that no one else can, but beyond that, they are special human beings, and I am beyond grateful to be able to call them Classic family.” – Luke Solomon, Classic Music Company founder
“Although my hands never touched the mixing boards, my mind, body, and soul have been infused in each recording. House music, much like gospel, speaks to the soul.”– Eunice Hood (Earthtone)
Releasing the final preview of the LP ‘Feel It’ on Wednesday, May 29 (alongside pre-orders for the album), the single continues to demonstrate the sonic diversity of Floorplan. With Robert crediting Lyric for “changing my ideas about what Detroit house could be” in a recent interview with Disco Pogo, this is seen clear as ever on ‘Feel It,’ as deep, swelling pads, dreamy soundscapes, and soaring yet soft vocal harmonies for a glorious slice of Motor City house at its finest.
As always, Floorplan’s faith remains at the forefront of what they do, cementing the connection between the creative process and their listeners: “This is an invitation to eternal salvation … At some point, this natural earthly body, the shell that we live in, is going to deteriorate. We’re going to pass away at some point, but we don’t have to; we don’t have to die. That’s what ‘Never Grow Old’ means. ‘The Master’s Plan’ is expanding on that precept that where we’re going, those who believe, are never going to grow old and will never die.” – Robert Hood
Floorplan The Master’s Plan’ LP will be released via Classic Music Company on June 21, 2024. Pre-order HERE

Busterkun & Mt. Sierra Drop Explosive House Track ‘Vendetta’

Unveiling a monumental moment in their musical journeys, Busterkun & Mt. Sierra unite to unleash their debut collaborative track – ‘Vendetta’ – under their new duo alias, Low Hanging Fruit. This eagerly awaited release not only signifies their inaugural official collaboration but also introduces a vibrant, dynamic presence in the electronic music domain.
‘Vendetta’ pulsates with lively house rhythms intertwined with mainstream techno beats, drawing inspiration from artists like Odd Mob. Infused with sharp stabs reminiscent of Busterkun’s recent single, ‘Blasé,’ the track maintains its distinct energy and inventive twists.
The track wastes no time getting into the action. A huge bass groove moves our bodies before a female vocalist takes over the track. Before we know it we are thrown into the electric drop filled with ear candy galore.
There are unique stabs and touches throughout keeping the record interesting. I am a huge fan of the bridge/2nd build. It is super tension-filled and makes ‘Vendetta’ stand out from the pack. This part would go off live for sure. I can already imagine the club rocking to it.
This experimental fusion has resulted in an electrifying collaboration carrying a message of resilience and ambition. Busterkun had this to say:
As Busterkun & Mt. Sierra embark on this new journey with Low Hanging Fruit, ‘Vendetta’ serves as a promising glimpse into their musical prowess and creative growth. Make sure to check it out below!

Kayzo and Scarlxrd See the World Through Broken Glass in Searing Single, "Eyes Wide Xpen"

Kayzo and Scarlxrd's new single, "Eyes Wide Xpen," isn't comfortable—it's a furious excavation of the buried truths we choose to ignore.
A punishing blend of metal, hip-hop and trap music, the track rips open like a ruptured artery, Kayzo's bass a barbed-wire riff twisting through Scarlxrd's snarling verses. The latter's lyrics are jagged hooks, each syllable laced with a bitter truth about society's decay.
Simultaneously invigorating and unsettling, Scarlxrd's claustrophobic verses offer a beautifully abrasive exploration of the human condition's darker recesses. To that end, the song is a primal scream that demands to be heard amidst the noise of the modern world, a hellscape of technological alienation and emotional desolation.
Kayzo crafts a melody akin to a rusted razor scraping against bone, a brutal counterpoint to the hollowness exposed by Scarlxrd's tormented vocals. It's clear that the beloved producer, who recently tore up EDC Las Vegas alongside a live band, remains fascinated by nu-metal's potential to push dance music to its most manic levels.
Listen to "Eyes Wide Xpen" below.

This Techno DJ Refused to Unplug His Equipment for Nicole Moudaber at Movement

It seems like the rain wasn’t the only thing that affected Lebanese/British Techno Queen Nicole Moudaber. Monday Afternoon, Nicole took it out on the social platform X (formerly Twitter) to express her mistreatment while trying to set up for her set as Movement Music Festival announced the gates would reopen. Fans were concerned that the main stage remained silent for an hour before Richie Hawtin started his set, debuting his new DEX EFX X0X project.
Set-Up
In her post, Moudaber explains how after being called back to play her set as the weather cleared out, the DJ meant to close out the night (Richie Hawtin) refused to unplug his equipment so she could play. Thus, the stage stood silent for an hour until Richie Hawtin performed his set and closed out the night. There has been no public response from Movement officials nor Richie Hawtin’s team. We are not sure if it was a miscommunication or flat-out disrespect. Nevertheless, Nicole closed out the weekend celebrating 10 years of her In The Mood radio. With support from Devon James and Techno Titan Chris Liebing, Techno reigned supreme in the city of Detroit.
Stay tuned for an exclusive interview we did with Moudaber. We sat down moments before she got on stage for her In The Mood 10-year anniversary set.

John Summit then added that the only way to honor Avicii’s legacy was to “not make the same mistakes”. At the end of the clip, John Summit then affirmed his love for entertaining the fans and music making.

Time Warp’s Two Days | Two Celebrations: full lineup revealed for unmissable return to Mannheim

After its grand anniversary celebration, Time Warp is back at Maimarkt Mannheim on October 25 and 26, 2024 for a significant birthday celebration as techno legend Sven Väth turns 60. 
The “compact” edition of Time Warp began in 2021 due to the pandemic and was so well-received that it has become an annual fall tradition. This year, Two Days Two Stages transforms into Two Days Two Celebrations, celebrating 30 years of Time Warp and 60 years of Sven Väth.
On Friday, Sven’s birthday will be celebrated with a stage in the Maimarkthalle, and on Saturday, the second part of the 30-year celebration will take place with the usual two stages in the Maimarkthalle and -club. A diverse lineup of long-time Time Warp heroes and newcomers has been curated to mark the special occasion. 
Sven Väth, who first performed at Time Warp in 1995 and has been an integral part of the family since, will be performing, while Nina Kraviz will join in the celebrations, along with Keinemusik members &ME and Rampa. A back-to-back set from Charlotte de Witte and Enrico Sangiuliano is also expected to be a fan highlight.
On Saturday, techno and house music heavyweights like Adam Beyer, Indira Paganotto, Reinier Zonneveld, and Vintage Culture will perform. New talents such as Alignment, Cera Khin, Miss Monique, and Nico Moreno will make their Time Warp debut.
Fans can look forward to another stellar edition in this jubilee year. The April Time Warp drew 30,000 visitors from around the world to celebrate with over 70 artists for nearly 30 hours. A successful edition followed in Sao Paulo. This fall, alongside Mannheim, Time Warp will debut in Madrid and hold its seventh edition in New York.
