Clothing for Success: How to Dress for Tomorrowland 2024

Tomorrowland 2024 is just around the corner, and it’s time to start planning your wardrobe and how to dress for this spectacular music festival. With thousands of like-minded music enthusiasts coming together to celebrate, dance, and immerse themselves in the magical atmosphere, it’s essential to pack comfortable clothing that allows you to enjoy the experience fully. In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the dos and don’ts of dressing for Tomorrowland 2024, ensuring you stay stylish and comfortable throughout the festival.
We also have a tool to plan your journey at the festival.
How to Dress for Tomorrowland 2024: Unleashing Your Style and Staying Comfortable
Embrace Lightweight and Breathable Fabrics: As the festival takes place during the summer months, prioritize lightweight and breathable fabrics to keep you cool and comfortable amidst the energetic crowd. Choose clothing made from materials like cotton, linen, or breathable blends that allow air circulation and prevent overheating. These fabrics not only offer comfort but also help wick away sweat, ensuring you stay fresh as you dance the day and night away. Footwear Fit for Dancing: Comfortable shoes are an absolute must for Tomorrowland. With hours of dancing and exploring ahead of you, opt for closed-toe shoes with ample cushioning and good arch support. Sneakers, athletic shoes, or sandals with sturdy soles are popular choices that will keep your feet happy throughout the festival. Remember, fashion is important, but don’t sacrifice comfort when it comes to footwear. Layer Up for Versatility: While the weather at Tomorrowland is generally warm, it’s always wise to be prepared for unexpected changes. Carry a light jacket, cardigan, or hoodie for cooler evenings or potential rain showers. Layering allows you to adjust your outfit to varying temperatures throughout the day and night, ensuring you stay comfortable at all times. It also provides an opportunity to showcase your style by mixing and matching different pieces for a fresh look each day. A girl holding a Tomorrowland’s flag on the mainstage
Shield Yourself from the Sun: Protecting yourself from the sun’s rays is crucial during an outdoor festival. Bring a wide-brimmed hat or a stylish cap to shield your face and head from direct sunlight. Don’t forget to pack sunglasses with UV protection to safeguard your eyes and complete your festival look. Stay fashionable while prioritizing your well-being. Stylish and Versatile Ensembles: Plan your outfits with versatility in mind. Choose comfortable bottoms such as shorts, skirts, or flowy pants that allow freedom of movement while keeping you cool. Pair them with tank tops, t-shirts, or light blouses in vibrant colors or fun prints that reflect the festival’s energetic atmosphere. Dressing in layers and opting for mix-and-match pieces ensures you’re prepared for any occasion or spontaneous theme changes. Swimwear for a Refreshing Experience: If you stay at the Montagoe Area in DreamVille you may enjoy pools where you can cool off and enjoy a refreshing break from the dance floor. Pack your favorite swimsuit or swim trunks to take advantage of these water features. It’s a chance to relax, make a splash, and create unforgettable memories while staying true to the festival’s vibrant spirit. Accessorize for Style and Function: Complete your festival look with carefully chosen accessories that enhance your style and add a touch of personality. Bandanas, headbands, funky socks, and belts can all elevate your outfit while keeping you comfortable. However, remember to keep accessories minimal to ensure unrestricted movement and comfort during long hours of dancing. Don’t forget to check Tomorrowland’s own summer collection to rock some of the wonderful t-shirts or shorts they have in store.
As you prepare for Tomorrowland 2024, remember that comfort should be the priority when selecting your festival wardrobe. Dressing in lightweight, breathable fabrics, comfortable footwear, and versatile ensembles will ensure you can dance, explore, and fully enjoy the festival’s electrifying atmosphere. Don’t forget to protect yourself from the sun, embrace layering, and pack swimwear for those refreshing moments. With careful planning and attention to comfort and style, you’ll be dressed for success at Tomorrowland 2023, ready to create incredible memories that will last a lifetime.

Chris Ramos Opens Up About Return and Mesmerizing Debut Album, "Evolution"

Chris Ramos has created a dance music opus in his debut album, Evolution.
Ramos’ early career was driven by a number of singles signed to then-emerging powerhouse label Monstercat, as well as a prestigious collaboration with the influential duo Tritonal, among other notable releases. Evolution marks his first release in eight years following a lengthy hiatus of healing and self-discovery.
Spanning 13 tracks, Evolution is an expansive project, effortlessly traversing between various dance music genres, from progressive house and dance-pop to drum & bass and techno. Featuring a sizable list of featured artists and producers, the album showcases his collaborative spirit while spotlighting his unique experience as a dance music veteran.
"Underwater" kicks off the project with its uplifting melodic techno production and anthemic vocals before tracks like the organic “Pushin” and the gritty “Mike Tyson” continue the sonic journey. An uplifting drum & bass anthem, “Bad For Ya” is an undisputed highlight while “Liars Say” wraps the album on a melancholic note with its downtempo production and mesmerizing synths.
We caught up with Ramos to chat about the album as well as his extended break from releasing music and future plans.
EDM.com: Evolution marks your first release in eight years. What led you to the decision to take this extended break?
Chris Ramos: It has been a minute! There are multiple reasons connected to the long break, but the root cause was mental health and the need to better myself. Looking back, I grew up with anxiety and ADHD but didn’t fully understand it. As I got older, and things started picking up, the anxiety didn’t get any better… it only escalated. I put a lot of pressure on myself, and without the right mindset and control, it can unfortunately become a little toxic.
I slowly went from loving the process and journey of an artist/DJ, from the exciting pre-show jitters, to losing a hold of my anxious thoughts. Once it started ruining the fun and dimming the passion, I knew I needed to make the tough call and take a break. Club residencies, records playing at festivals, being played on the radio… I had to put it all on pause. I also had still a lot to learn musically/technically, and just needed to grow as a person.
EDM.com: What kept you busy throughout all these years?
Chris Ramos: The long break turned into a blessing in disguise! From the life experiences and lessons learned, to the production and sound engineering skills that I’ve further developed… It has really been great. I also started a record label during the pandemic, which catapulted both passion and purpose, and opened my eyes to a whole other side of the music industry.
Developing artists and releasing their music is a whole other ballgame. Helping and inspiring others has become one of my most favorite things, and the energy exchange between artists is like nothing else. Traveling to Europe, Los Angeles and Costa Rica brought in inspiration, new perspectives and some really cool vibes. And I also worked on music for some of the biggest brands and video games out there, which really pushed me out of my comfort zone and gave me new ways to approach my own music.
EDM.com: Walk us through the creation of this album–how did the process of making it look like?
Chris Ramos: Where do I start? Its funny because in my head I feel like I began making this album maybe a year ago, but in reality its been in development since 2020. I just didn’t know it yet. I’ve written songs about my life experience, and let them guide me into their final form. Everything has felt natural and smooth, pouring myself into every aspect.
“Underwater” is essentially about me seeing myself drowning underwater, at rock bottom, and pulling myself out. “Bad For Ya” is about a traumatic breakup, with the writing inspired by her perspective… I wrote and sang it not too long after the experience, so there is quite a lot of raw emotion behind that recording. “Out Of My Head” hits the post-breakup experience pretty well, and even “Hypnotherapy” plays on giving so much of yourself that you lose sight of who you really are.
I’m grateful for the amazing team that has collaborated with me on these records too! Dani Doucette really hit the money and emotion on her records, and her energy is always amazing to be around. MXJ brought their fun Afro vibes and really pushed my drum work to another level. S_Zero and I really merged our styles and showed what a seamless collaboration looks like, while Joe McCann pushed the experimental envelope, inspiring me to push things further with a “Spanglish” vocal. Together they have all inspired and pushed me to be better, and made the journey of this album even more enjoyable.
EDM.com: You have a very hands-on approach to creating art, from singing and producing to mastering and creating visual art for your records. What does the process of learning to do things yourself mean to you?
Chris Ramos: There’s two sides to every coin. In this case, I would say that learning to do so much myself has manifested for a couple of reasons: first, this is what happens when you love to learn new things, have ADHD, and strive to perfect whatever you’re doing. Secondly, a lot of it has come out of necessity.
Making music, real high-quality music, doesn’t come cheap, nor does it always come quick. And unless you have a massive budget and team to back you, its not easy to truly thrive. Studio costs, engineers, singers/writers, musicians, producers, graphic designers, etc… I love being creative, and have the capacity to do all of these things, so why not work my rear end off and become good at it! And the singing part… I’ve always been shy about singing, but as a recording engineer, I’ve heard from so many singers that I need to start recording myself more and sing on more music. So I decided f*ck it, this is my time to be me, and do what feels right. I love to sing, jam out, and make music. Rather than hold back, its time to showcase my real self to the world.
EDM.com: What are some of your favorite tracks from Evolution and how do they fit within the whole narrative of the record?
Chris Ramos: Can I answer another question? Haha. This is tough, I love all 13 records here. My top record would have to be Underwater. Being that it is about pulling myself from the depths, and this album is about my personal evolution coming from the shadows, it really sets the tone for the whole record.
"Out Of My Head" was a fun one to make. I envision Hans Zimmer collaborating with MEDUZA, with Eric Prydz adding some sizzle on top. I got to bring out my score experience in this one, and merging that world with electronic dance music was a fun challenge I set out for myself.
"Hypnotherapy" was one of the quickest and most natural projects here. It’s definitely a little linked to my ADHD with the flips and changeups, but thats really what I love about that record. And Dani’s dreamy vocals of course. Such a bop all around.
"Breakdown" and "Mike Tyson" are the more aggressive records, releasing built up aggression after an epic crescendo, and playing off of my martial arts background respectively.
And all of the collabs were so much fun to make. They really inspired me to continue to push myself.
EDM.com: Your debut single dates back to 2010. When did you start making music and what has that evolution looked like for you?
Chris Ramos: Let’s start at the beginning. My parents saw that I loved playing piano as a baby, so they quickly put me into piano lessons at age 3. At 13 I was graciously gifted my first real keyboard, which had a built-in sequencer. Little did my family know that I’d soon start recording ideas, experimenting with loops, and begin making tracks [laughs]. I grew up with all types of music around me, but my mom would play dance, trance and Euro when working out and I loved the energy and emotion behind it. Tiesto, Robert Miles, Global Deejays, Ace Of Base, Basshunter…I was hooked. By age 16, I became really passionate about making this a career, and that same year I signed my first record deal with a small label out of Miami. My passion to be in this industry was solidified.
From there, I went on to learn to DJ and started playing all-ages events throughout Toronto. At age 20 I had my first record on the radio, was playing clubs, and started to hold residencies at some of the best venues in the city. Music seems to have always come naturally to me, and it will forever flow through my veins.
EDM.com: What have been some of your favorite career moments so far, and what can fans expect from you throughout the rest of 2024 and beyond?
Chris Ramos: There have been so many fun moments, it’s truly an exciting career and industry to be a part of. Opening for Porter Robinson and Madeon have to be some of my favorite shows to ever play. The vibes were on point and the crowds amazing.
Hearing my name for the first time on my favorite radio station was surreal. I was driving at the time, and almost crashed my mother’s car haha!
Collaborating with Tritonal was an absolute dream. Being a fan of theirs, and hearing they wanted to collaborate on my record “This Is Love” was such an honor. They are such fun guys, and I could have never expected such an epic response. We charted on Billboard’s Hot Dance charts, broke Beatport’s top 100 overall, hit my first ever million streams, and we were played in every major dance music festival in the world. To make things even more surreal, Darude came to the fold and remixed the record! Such a legend. What an experience.
Looking ahead, fans can expect a whole lot more from me. This album is not just about my personal evolution, but about me coming back from the shadows, with full force catapulting myself forward. Expect more music, epic content, and soon live shows. No more holding myself back. It’s time to bring all the feels to the world.

Anyma NYE Performance Confirmed as Vegas Sphere's First-Ever Electronic Music Show

Back in September, we published a list of electronic music artists who simply must perform at the Vegas Sphere. One of them, Anyma, will soon become the first.
The superstar Italian DJ, who also co-founded the barnstorming Afterlife label and touring brand, yesterday shared a cryptic teaser of a performance at the $2.3 billion venue. In it, he stares down a humanoid robot as he stands in a barren desert with a structure in the distance resembling the colossal Sphere.
The rare concert has now been confirmed by Sphere Entertainment, the venue's proprietors. It will be the first electronic music show at the record-breaking Sphere, the world's largest spherical structure, which will host Anyma for a performance on December 31st. That means he's set to become the first EDM artist to perform in the Sphere's arena after residencies featuring a quartet of legendary rock bands: U2, Phish, Dead & Company and The Eagles.
View the original article to see embedded media.
The Sphere's inner sanctum projects mind-boggling graphics on the world's largest- and highest-resolution wraparound LED screen, which wraps over and behind the crowd. To that end, the venue presents a mouthwatering experience for fans of Anyma, whose live shows have become a touchstone for immersive visual production within the electronic dance music community.
Anyma's esteemed Visual Director, Alessio De Vecchi, was named EDM.com's best visual artist of 2023 for his haunting, transhumanist approach to design.
Those visuals will be the focal point of the show inside the Sphere, which has enough cutting-edge tech specs to make James Cameron's Avatar look like a flip-book animation. Its LED media plane spans 160,000 square feet—equivalent to four football fields—and uses puzzling scientific theorems to "direct sound like laser beams" across the audience bowl. The multi-sensory venue also has an immersive infrasound seating system rigged with haptics that transmit 4D wind effects and bass to your chair and feet.
The NYE concert is billed as "The End of Genesys," a reference to Anyma's audiovisual brand and tour of the same name. His stunning debut album, which released in March, also shares the "Genesys" title.
"The inclusion of special guests will highlight the concluding performance of 'Genesys,' according to Sphere Entertainment.
Presale registration for tickets to the show is available now. The pre-sale will begin on Monday, July 22nd at 9am PT before the general on-sale the following day at the same time.

Watch Fred again.. and The Japanese House Take Over London Pub for Secret Set

Imagine walking into your local pub to grab a pint, but instead of encountering the grizzled bartender who consoles (and overserves) you after every breakup, you see Fred again.. tickling the keys.
Just a few short weeks after performing Glastonbury, the chart-topping electronic music superstar played the role of busker over the weekend after showing up to a British pub to perform a secretive set alongside The Japanese House. The intimate performance went down on July 12th at The Rising Sun, a pub in the heart of Brixton's Pensford village.
The nom de plume of celebrated indie artist Amber Bain, The Japanese House is renowned for her androgynous dream-pop sound. Her aching voice proved the perfect match for the tender keyboard work of Fred, with whom she performed remixed renditions of her tracks "Sunshine Baby" and "Chewing Cotton Wool," among other unreleased songs.
"Amber's voice is so magical I couldn’t stop smiling," he later wrote in an Instagram Story.
Check out footage of the rare performance below.

This Festival Will Play EDM For Sperm & Eggs in an IVF Clinic

In collaboration alongside Swedish audiovisual artist and designer Love Hultén, the Way Out West Festival had just introduced a unique ‘IVF stage’. This stage is unique in which the attendees are sperm and eggs at the Eliva IVF clinic in Stockholm. The official name of this stage from the Way Out West Festival is the ‘Future Fan Stage’ and according to an article from MusicTech, the festival organizers stated, “To stay relevant, new fans are crucial. New generations of fans are vital for keeping both artists and music festivals alive and kicking”. The official website of the festival then added, “This year, we’ve added an additional stage to help create future fans of great music by ‘injecting’ live recordings by the headlining artists into their DNA at the earliest stage possible – before they even develop into fetuses”.
It’s basically an innovative way to inspire a new generation of music fans to enjoy the same tunes that those that came before them have loved in years past. Someday, the future human beings that will arrive on this planet will get to experience the same tunes that they enjoyed before their bodies fully formed, at a live music festival stage.
The Way Out West Festival’s ‘Future Fan Stage’ also has research data to back up its mission
The Way Out West Festival, which also bases itself in Sweden, launching the ‘Future Fan Stage’ at the Eliva IVF clinic has research data to back up its mission as well. According to Spanish scientific research institution Institut Marquès, musical vibrations increase the fertilization cycles of IVF cycles by 5%. The scientific researchers at the institution then analyzed 985 in-vitro fertilised eggs from 114 patients. The researchers then randomly divided the eggs into two groups. Afterwards, the researchers then cultured the eggs in two different incubators: one provided with a loudspeaker system and the other in a conventional incubator. Later, the results show that those grown with music had statistically higher fertilization rate, increased by 4.8%.
Notable artists who will provide musical enjoyment for the next generation of festival goers
Some of the notable artists who provide musical enjoyment for the next generation of music fans include the likes of Fred again.., Chase & Status, Peggy Gou, and many more. To provide further clarification, the music from these stars will be provided in the form of live recordings.

Celebrate Porter Robinson’s Birthday With Their Top 10 Most-Streamed Tracks

Porter Robinson is 32 years old?! It’s hard to believe how quickly time has flown. I can vividly recall first discovering his album, ‘Spitfire’, though it’s actually been 13 years since its release. And who could forget how Porter’s journey began, starting with a gift from his parents—an electronic keyboard—that led to ”locking himself in his bedroom for the next 3 years”, as his father recalled in an interview. Soon after, he surprised not only his parents, but also himself with news of an invitation to DJ in Germany. The rest is history.
This prodigy made his mark in EDM during the 2010s, particularly in Electro House. With his highly anticipated album, ‘Smile! :D’, set to launch later this month, Porter Robinson gave listeners a taste dropping single ‘Cheerleader’ back in March of this year.
To celebrate this talented artist a very happy 32nd birthday, check out his Top 10 streamed tracks of all time below.
10. ‘Russian Roulette’ [1M streams]

9. Knock Yourself Out XD [3M]
8. Cheerleader 9M

Blancwater’s Melodic House Odyssey: ‘Hear Me’

Blancwater’s ‘Hear Me‘ is a gem in the melodic house scene. I was struck by its dreamy atmosphere from the first listen. The Dutch producer’s touch is evident throughout.
The drums caught my attention immediately. Clean, crisp, and modern. They set a solid foundation for the track. But it’s Mondingo‘s vocals that truly elevate the piece. Angelic and nostalgic, they float effortlessly above the mix.
I found myself lost in the melody. Synth lines weave a captivating sonic tapestry. It’s subtle yet engaging. Blancwater’s production skills shine here. The balance is perfect.
This isn’t a peak-time banger. It’s a journey. I can imagine it working well as a warm-up or for home listening. The mood is contemplative and uplifting. It left me feeling both relaxed and quietly energized.
Dennis De Laat‘s remix takes ‘Hear Me‘ in a new direction. It’s bolder. More dancefloor-oriented. The bassline is prominent and pulsing. It drove my foot to tap involuntarily.
De Laat’s percussion work is impressive. More layers, more complexity. It’s clearly designed to move bodies. Yet he retains the original’s ethereal vocals. A smart choice that links both versions.
I appreciated De Laat’s use of synthesizers. They’re more pronounced, creating moments of tension and release. It adds to the track’s appeal for club play.
The remix strikes a balance between energetic and chill. I can see it fitting various moments in a DJ set. It’s versatile. A quality I always appreciate in dance music.
Both versions showcase their producers’ talents. Blancwater’s original is a melodic house at its finest. De Laat’s remix is a skillful reinterpretation.
Together, they offer two distinct experiences. I found myself returning to both. The original for moments of introspection. The remix when I needed an energy boost.
‘Hear Me’ highlights the depth of melodic house. It’s a release that resonates on multiple levels. A standout release in today’s electronic music landscape.

Anyma Announces “THE END OF GENESYS” at The Sphere

Electronic music producer Anyma, one-half of the duo Tale Of Us, has revealed his next major project. In a cryptic video on Instagram, he announced “THE END OF GENESYS“.
The event will take place on 31 December 2024 at The Sphere in Las Vegas. It marks the culmination of Anyma’s Genesys era, which began with his debut album in 2023.
In the video, Anyma stands alone in a desert. He faces what appears to be his virtual conscience, represented by a robot. The clip ends with a futuristic cityscape, prominently featuring The Sphere. His Instagram account has been wiped too.
Fans speculate this show may coincide with a new album release. However, official confirmation is yet to come.
The Genesys project has been pivotal in Anyma’s solo career. It blends electronic music with cutting-edge visuals and technology. The original Genesys album dropped in 2023, followed by Genesys Part II.
“THE END OF GENESYS” suggests a conclusion to this creative cycle. It raises questions about Anyma’s future direction.
What’s “THE END OF GENESYS”?
“THE END OF GENESYS” is an upcoming show by Anyma. It is scheduled for December 31, 2024, at The Sphere in Las Vegas. It marks the conclusion of Anyma’s Genesys project, which began with his debut album in 2023. This event is expected to feature new music and cutting-edge visuals, potentially introducing Anyma’s next creative phase. While details are limited, the name suggests it will be the final chapter in the Genesys narrative, closing out this era of Anyma’s work.
The choice of venue is significant. The Sphere, a state-of-the-art performance space, opened in 2023. Its advanced audio-visual capabilities align with Anyma’s innovative approach to live shows.
This announcement comes at a time of rapid evolution in electronic music. Artists increasingly incorporate immersive technologies and conceptual narratives into their work.
Anyma’s focus on blending music with visual art and technology has set him apart. This upcoming show promises to push those boundaries further.
The timing – New Year’s Eve – adds symbolic weight. It suggests not just the end of a year, but the close of a creative chapter.
What comes next for Anyma remains unclear. The end of Genesys could signal a completely new artistic direction.
Tickets for the event have not yet been released. Fans are advised to watch Anyma’s official channels for updates.
With anticipation building, all eyes will be on The Sphere this New Year’s Eve. Anyma’s performance promises to be more than just a show – it’s the end of an era, and potentially the birth of something new.

Anyma Teases New Year's Eve Performance in Las Vegas Sphere

Back in September, we published a list of DJs who simply must perform at the $2.3 billion Vegas Sphere. It seems one of them, Anyma, will soon become the first.
The superstar DJ and producer, who also co-founded the beloved Afterlife brand, today took to social media to share a teaser of a performance at the Sphere on December 31st, 2024. In it, he stares down a humanoid robot as he stands in a barren desert with a structure that resembles the colossal Sphere in the distance.
The post is captioned, "THE END OF GENESYS," a reference to Anyma's brand and tour of the same name. His stunning debut album, which released in March, also shares the name.
Anyma and his Afterlife brand have become the electronic music community's touchstone for melodic techno. Its haunting, cerebral approach to the genre has effectively reinvented it for today's generation, transforming it into a dazzling—and oftentimes chilling—live music experience. Anyma's esteemed Visual Director, Alessio De Vecchi, was named EDM.com's best visual artist of 2023.
It's important to note the Sphere has not formally confirmed the show at the time of this writing. A representative of the venue's proprietor, Sphere Entertainment, did not immediately respond to EDM.com's request for comment.

Vulnerability Meets Dancefloor Energy in Beau Cruz's New Single, "Wrong About You"

Beau Cruz has dropped a new single, "Wrong About You," a pulsating house anthem that weaves a tale of unexpected romance through its infectious beats and emotive vocals.
The promising DJ and producer is surging through New York City's dance music ranks after a turbulent period in his life, marred by the tragic death of his mother from cancer just before the pandemic, which inspired him to quit his job in finance and pursue music full-time.
The ensuing introspection of that loss is at the bedrock of "Wrong About You," wherein Cruz's production shines as he crafts a soundscape that's both melancholic and club-ready. With lyrics that explore the vulnerability of falling for someone against one's better judgment, "Wrong About You" touches on universal themes of trust, second chances and the thrill of discovering depth in a seemingly superficial connection.
The vocal delivery by This Is Tess captures the raw emotion of this emotional rollercoaster, oscillating between cautious optimism and unbridled joy as Cruz's aching drops hit like revelations in their journey from skepticism to hope. Drenched in a brooding tone, her vocals contrast starkly with the song's upbeat tempo, creating a poignant tension.
Cruz, who is fresh off a headlining gig at NYC's famed Marquee Nightclub, is poised to make the track a summer favorite on the city's intimate rooftops and dancefloors. Before then, check out "Wrong About You" below and find the new single on streaming platforms here.

Spencer Brown’s Hypnotic Techno Odyssey on ‘Chair 10’

Spencer Brown has done it again. His new track ‘Chair 10’ is a treasure. It’s part of Global Underground’s ‘Unique #2’ compilation which features twelve top producers. Twelve exclusive tracks with Brown’s stand out.
I’ve been following Brown’s career. This is different. Deeper. More experimental.
The first thing you notice? The beats. Techy. Precise. But there’s warmth there too. Then the harmonies hit you with hypnotic lines that don’t begin to cover it. They swirl.
The drums are addictive. I dare you not to move. Seriously, try it. This isn’t the Spencer Brown I thought I knew. It’s better.
He’s blending worlds here. Digital meets organic. The future meets the past. I’ve listened to ‘Chair 10’ on repeat. Each time, I hear something new.
Brown’s growing. Evolving. This track proves it.
In a compilation full of heavyweights, he holds his own. More than that, he shines.
‘Unique #2’ is available on vinyl. Grab it if you can. The digital version is great too.
But back to ‘Chair 10’. It’s a journey. A statement. A glimpse into electronic music’s future. Brown’s pushing boundaries here and taking risks. It pays off.
I’ve heard a lot of electronic music. This stands out. It’s fresh. Exciting.
‘Chair 10’ isn’t background music. It demands attention. It rewards it too. If you listen to one new electronic track this week, make it this one.
‘Chair 10’ is a new direction for Spencer Brown.
