SLANDER, Poo Bear and Nikademis Explore the Depths of a Nonexistent Future in New Single: Listen

A collision of SLANDER and Nikademis' euphoric production and the emotionally intoxicating lyricism of Poo Bear has brought to fans a new anthem with an existential twist.
Out now via SLANDER's own Heaven Sent label, "If Tomorrow Never Happens” explores the finite nature of humanity while maintaining a triumphant sound and feeling. Together with Poo Bear, the melodic bass duo debuted the new single together at Miami's Ultra Music Festival in March before dropping it again at EDC Las Vegas in May.
At the track's outset, we're met with a gentle melody that underlies smooth vocals conveying the title's thought-provoking message. A vigorous beat builds tension underneath speculative lyrics, which pose a series of open-ended "what ifs" should we not see the sun rise tomorrow. A euphoric drop then enters the fray to contrast Poo Bear's sobering hypotheticals, its melody encouraging us to realize what his words mean for their todays.
"I sent SLANDER a DM one evening in hopes of being able to create a song with them that could take over the world," Poo Bear said in a statement. "I wrote this song with intent of creating an anthem for party and festival goers to be able to celebrate like tomorrow isn’t gonna happen! We never know when our time is up in life and for this reason we have to live like tomorrow might not happen."
Listen to "If Tomorrow Never Happens" below and find the new single on streaming platforms here.

Swedish Festival Conceives "IVF Stage" to Play Headliners' Music for Unfertilized Embryos

Prospective attendees of Sweden's Way Out West Festival, in the form of sperm and eggs, will soon be incubated to the sounds of its headliners, including Fred again… and Peggy Gou.
That's according to the festival's organizers, who this week announced the creation of a new stage in collaboration with renowned designer Love Hultén. They are planning to activate the miniature stage, dubbed "Future Fan Stage," at Eliva, an IVF clinic in Stockholm.
Complete with colorful (albeit gentle) visuals, the fully functional stage will be "injecting" live recordings of music by the festival's headliners into unfertilized embryo samples "before they even develop into fetuses," per a blog post shared by Way Out West. The festival cited recent studies showing that "music improves the fertilization rate during an IVF process."
The innovative installation takes the scientific effects of music quite literally. Hultén expressed excitement for the intricate layers of the stage's design, saying he was "all in" after the festival approved him.
"The Future Fan Stage was already an amazing concept in theory and had a lot of interesting design aspects," the Swedish audiovisual artist said. "Combining elements from the lab world with music stage visuals was challenging and fun."
"With this cheeky and wonderful idea, we will get future fans hooked on our festival with great live music, even before they’ve come into being," added Way Out West Project Manager Kimmie Winroth. "And if we’re lucky, even contribute to welcoming them into existence."
For those who have surpassed their cellular form of life, this year's Way Out West Festival returns to Gothenburg's Slottsskogen park from August 8-10. Passes can be purchased here.

Environmental Group Files Appeal Against Tomorrowland Days Before The Festival

An action group challenged the Tomorrowland campsite permit recently.
Just days before tens of thousands of festival-goers arrive at Boom, Belgium, the Dreamville campsite associated with the iconic Tomorrowland music festival is battling a last-minute obstacle. The action group Leefmilieu Rupelstreek has filed an appeal against the permit of the place, accusing potential environmental damage and legal breaches.
The appeal centres around alleged failures by the festival organisers to secure the necessary permits for specific actions undertaken during the campsite’s construction. These actions include altering vegetation and paving sections of the designated area, both of which are restricted within the nature reserve where Dreamville is located. Additionally, the group claims unauthorised drainage activities have negatively impacted the habitat of protected salamander and natterjack toad species.
Leen Schamp, a representative of Leefmilieu Rupelstreek, emphasises the group’s commitment to upholding environmental regulations. “These practices simply aren’t allowed in a nature reserve“, Schamp states. “We believe the organisers neglected to obtain crucial permits and conducted activities during the construction phase that are, in fact, illegal“.

Authorities Reply
The appeal has drawn criticism from Minister Zuhal Demir, who oversees the permitting process. In a statement, Demir suggests the timing of the appeal may be strategically motivated to disrupt the festival. “The applicants of this appeal waited until the last day with a clear view to the collapse of the festival“, he said. “While the appeal itself cannot be commented on until reviewed, the last-minute filing raises concerns about the intent behind it“.
Schamp defends their take, explaining “Our group consists of volunteers with other commitments, so processing the documents takes time“, hence why the appeal was filed just days before Tomorrowland.
And speaking of Tomorrowland, organisers expressed surprise at the appeal, noting its unprecedented nature and close proximity to the festival’s commencement. “We’ve received permits for Dreamville in past years without such challenges. (…) We remain confident in the ongoing legal process and believe a positive resolution is achievable“.
This is an ongoing story and we’ll keep a close eye on how everything unfolds. If given legal validation, the preparations at the campsite will have to be stopped and the campsite might not be used to its full potential. Stay tuned to our page for more news.

deadmau5 Set to Sanctify New EP With Rare Performance in Historic London Church

deadmau5 is planning to take fans to church ahead of a hotly anticipated EP—Hackney Church, that is. Standing in East London since 1275, the church recently underwent an ambitious renovation, transforming the historic building into a destination for music and art events alongside regular services.
The venue, cozy and intimate, will present deadmau5 for "his most intimate London show in years," according to the concert's organizer, LWE Events. Scheduled for July 16th with Volaris as support, the show will celebrate the iconic producer's new body of work, Some EP.
The restoration of the Anglican church's interior and surrounding churchyard cost the developers, SAINT, £6 million (just over $7.7 million USD). According to the church's website, it has been a "center of Christian worship in the borough since 1275" and now hosts various cultural events.
Through the upcoming deadmau5 show and others, the venue and its proprietors are operating with the aim of "renewing culture," per SAINT's website. It also serves as a museum of sorts, with an archive of historical documents dating back to the building's construction.
You can purchase tickets to deadmau5's show at Hackney Church here.

Vitalic lands on Cercle with “You Are Not Alone”

Vitalic, the OG French electro wizard, just dropped a straight-up banger with Cercle Records. “You Are Not Alone” is a certified face-melter that’ll have you questioning your existence while your body moves involuntarily to its relentless pulse.
This joint kicks off with some retro-futuristic arps that’ll make you feel like you’re piloting a spaceship through a wormhole. Then BAM! That four-on-the-floor beat hits you like a freight train, anchoring the track with the gravitational pull of a black hole. But hold up, we ain’t done yet – a spectral vocal floats in, adding some serious haunted disco vibes to the mix.
Just when you think you’ve got this track figured out, Vitalic flips the script. A gnarly, bone-rattling bassline crashes the party, setting the stage for one of those spine-tingling drops that only this madman can conjure. From there, it’s a non-stop rollercoaster of pulsating energy, with those celestial arpeggios dancing around your cranium like a constellation of party-starting stars.
Bottom line: Vitalic’s latest offering is a certified heater that’ll have you questioning the nature of reality while simultaneously losing your shit on the dancefloor. It’s a time-bending, genre-defying masterpiece that proves why this cat’s been at the top of the game for so long. Trust me, fam – you need this track in your life yesterday. Now excuse me while I go rewire my brain to this absolute weapon of a tune. Peace!

AI Artist Ravyn Lyte Debuts With Futuristic Love Song ‘11111 (Just Be the One)’

The music industry is on the verge of a revolution, where cutting-edge technology amplifies human creativity. Leading the charge is Ravyn Lyte, a groundbreaking AI artist, DJ, and champion for positivity.
Ravyn Lyte explodes onto the scene with her debut single, ‘11111 (Just Be the One).’ This futuristic drum and bass anthem explores the complexities of love and longing. The lyrics delve into unspoken emotions and the push-and-pull of relationships, culminating in the chorus’s powerful plea to “just be the one,” a universal desire for connection that transcends time.
Ravyn Lyte is the brainchild of Marcus “Bellringer” Bell, a musical prodigy and visionary. Bell’s musical journey began at age two, composing his first songs at eight and starting a record label at twelve. A Berklee graduate, he traversed genres, playing 12 instruments and composing for big bands and orchestras. Always ahead of the curve, Bell even predicted the rise of Hip-Hop Country years before it became mainstream.
In 2023, he lost his voice during a grueling recording session, which sparked a catalyst for a groundbreaking innovation. As a lifelong tech advocate, Bell used AI to create a replica of his own voice, unlocking the creative potential of AI tools. In a world saturated with negativity, Ravyn Lyte’s music is designed with the help of neuroscientists to embed sounds of peace and healing. “Imagine music that calms you down, has a positive psychological impact,” says Bell. Ravyn Lyte’s music aspires to soothe the soul and promote peace in a troubled world.
A portion of Ravyn’s music proceeds will go to nonprofits like White Hall Arts Academy, a Los Angeles-based organization that teaches music to underserved communities. “I see the work they do there and their impact on families, not just the kids. Many schools struggle even to have music programs, and that’s the kind of thing we aim to support with this project,” he says.

SLANDER, Nikademis and Poo Bear Drop Emotional Anthem ‘If Tomorrow Never Happens’

Get ready to sing, cry, and maybe even propose because Grammy-nominated bass music duo SLANDER is back with another emotional anthem teaming up with Nikademis and Poo Bear on ‘If Tomorrow Never Happens.’
SLANDER, known for hits like ‘Love Is Gone’ and ‘All You Need To Know’ joins forces with songwriting legend Poo Bear. Poo Bear’s magic touch has graced tracks by Justin Bieber and Skrillex, and his ability to craft tear-jerking anthems perfectly complements SLANDER’s signature sound. Rounding out the dream team is electronic music producer Nikademis, adding his production prowess to the mix.
SLANDER and Poo Bear debuted the track live at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, then brought the heat again during SLANDER’s headlining set at EDC Las Vegas 2024. The response was electric, proving this collaboration is a recipe for fan-favorite status.’
‘If Tomorrow Never Happens’ is all about living in the moment. The opening is a masterclass in building anticipation. Soothing vocals and a gentle rhythm lull you into a sense of calm, punctuated by the haunting question, “If tomorrow never happens?” Then, the song explodes into a moment of pure euphoria. Infectious vocals and pulsating beats combine to create an irresistible urge to move, to lose yourself in the moment, and celebrate the beauty of seizing the moment.
“​​We are thrilled ‘If Tomorrow Never Happens’ is finally out! Getting to work with Nikademis and Poo Bear was incredible. They are both immense talents and we are so happy with how the final version turned out! We hope you enjoy it and we thank you for listening!” – SLANDER
‘If Tomorrow Never Happens’ is one of the most meaningful songs I’ve had the opportunity to work on. It’s an emotional journey that is so well conveyed by Poo Bear’s passionate and moving performance on this track. For me it’s a reminder to try to live life everyday to the fullest and always be present in the moment with our loved ones. It’s been a dream come true to work with SLANDER who I’ve looked up to as artists and individuals for so long, and with Poo Bear whose talents are lent something to this track beyond what I could’ve ever dreamed of” – Nikademis
Denver-based producer Nikademis is taking the EDM scene by storm with his unique blend of dark, atmospheric soundscapes and uplifting melodies and vocals. This 25-year-old Long Island native has quickly built a reputation for crafting powerful tracks, evident in hits like ‘I Don’t Wanna Know’ (with Friendzone and Candace Sosa), ‘Talking to Ghosts’ (with We Are Fury and SOUNDR), and his official remix of ILLENIUM’s Grammy-nominated ‘U & Me’ from ‘Fallen Embers. His distinctive style has caught the attention of industry heavyweights like ILLENIUM, Dabin, William Black, and Blanke. This year alone, he’s impressed with ‘Waking Up in a Dream’ (with 9 Worlds and Donna Tella) and ‘Numb’ (with LEUTHERO and Skye Silansky).

Wounded Wallflower: Whethan's Stunning New Album Trades Wide-Eyed Wonder for Rebellious Angst

Producing glossy, timeless dance-pop that defied his age, Whethan released the first Life of a Wallflower album nearly six years ago. 19 at the time, he produced an album replete with starry-eyed anthems about the elusive search for love.
Today's release of Life of a Wallflower, Vol. 2 presents a new artist entirely—one who has lost that romanticized youth and must burrow into its shadows. Crafting a stunning sequel that convulses with the tortured energy of growing pains, the effort marks a stark departure from the wide-eyed optimism of its predecessor, instead painting a raw portrait of disillusionment.
A departure from the bubbly production of its predecessor, the album thrashes with a dizzying barrage of distorted bass that feels both expansive and claustrophobic—much like the minds of those navigating the tumultuous waters of early adulthood. Its song titles intrinsically reflect that internal struggle, with tracks like "sick of myself" and "PLACE IN MY MIND" taking us straight into the tormented mind of an artist grappling with the pitfalls of a loss of innocence.
Whethan fills that void with dark, hedonistic club bangers designed for reckless abandon, like the down-and-dirty house track "ROOM IS ON FIRE" (featuring AG Club) and the disco-fueled "DO YOU REMEMBER?." In the latter, he channels the head-in-the-clouds naïveté of Vol. 1 but shatters its veneers, swallowing the bitter aftertaste of a love he was told would last forever.
You can listen to Life of a Wallflower, Vol. 2 below and catch Whethan on the album's dedicated tour.

John Summit Talks Debut Album, ‘Comfort In Chaos’ with the GRAMMYs

John Summit, the dynamic DJ/producer known for his electrifying performances and hit tracks, recently sat down with the GRAMMYs to discuss his long-awaited debut album, Comfort in Chaos. This release marks a significant milestone in his career, a testament to over a decade of dedication and musical evolution.
Comfort in Chaos, a body of work that has made waves far and wide building up to its release, is finally out now. You can find a complete review on it made by our team, by clicking this link right here.
The Journey to ‘Comfort in Chaos’
“I always wanted to do an album“, Summit reveals. The path to Comfort in Chaos was far from straightforward. Despite his success on major stages worldwide, it took him over ten years of producing and eight years of releasing music to feel confident enough to create a full-length album. This journey wasn’t just about technical growth but also about understanding his unique sound and artistic identity.
Balancing Life and Music
In a candid moment, Summit admits, “I’m a little hungover, but I’m hanging in there“, reflecting on a rare night out with friends. Despite his demanding schedule, he cherishes these glimpses of normalcy. Summit’s rise to fame began with the 2020 hit ‘Deep End,’ released just months into global lockdown. His momentum continued with tracks like ‘Thin Line’ with Guz and ‘Sun Came Up’ with Sofi Tukker. As live events resumed, he graced stages from EDC Las Vegas to Madison Square Garden, launched his label Experts Only — formerly Off The Grid —, and maintained a vibrant social media presence, all while working on his debut album.
Creating Comfort in Chaos
The creation of Comfort in Chaos was a deeply personal endeavor for Summit. “The album showcases my past, present, and possible future“, he says. Tracks like ‘EAT THE BASS’ highlight his club roots, while hits like ‘Where You Are’ and ‘Shiver’ with Hayla reflect his evolution towards more melodic, lyric-focused music. The album also explores new sounds beyond his usual House and Techno style, revealing a broader artistic vision.
Summit’s month-long retreat in London was crucial for this project. He rented a studio house, inviting collaborators like Sub Focus, Hayla, and Julia Church. “It was great to make an actual body of work instead of just festival music“, he notes, emphasizing the importance of stepping back from touring to focus on creative exploration.
The Duality of John Summit
The album’s title, Comfort in Chaos, reflects Summit’s personal journey. It captures the balance between his public persona as an energetic DJ and his introspective self, John Schuster. “I’ve been portraying this John Summit image my whole career, but in reality, I’m John Schuster“, he explains. This duality is a central theme of the album, showcasing his ability to find peace amidst the chaos of his life.
Summit’s collaboration with Kaskade on the album is particularly meaningful. Kaskade, a mentor and inspiration, taught him the importance of patience and staying calm. “Everything I’m experiencing is something he’s experienced at some point in his DJ career“, Summit shares, highlighting the invaluable guidance he received.
Looking Ahead
With Comfort in Chaos, John Summit has not only achieved a significant career milestone but also opened a new chapter in his artistic journey. He continues to push boundaries, exploring new sounds and emotional depths in his music. As he says, “Now is when my career is starting to actually get fun“.

Get Lost In the Sauce With ARTY’s Latest, ‘In My Head’

Summer is in full throttle and releases keep coming fresh out the oven. Next up in Armada Music we receive a wonderful Electro Pop banger from ARTY featuring the beautiful vocals of Jay Sorrow. ‘In My Head’ is that light breeze by the sea coast. Time to enjoy yourself with a pina colada and your favorite summer situationship.

Full of energy, drive and attitude, this version is all about cracking dance floors and making crowds go mental. The beat is as fun as it is refreshing, the simple yet deep lyrics are extremely relatable, and the groove is expected from ARTY as the star he is.
ARTY
Famed DJ/producer and EDM heavyweight ARTY continues to surprise the dance community.

Moreover, he has immensely popular remixes for Skrillex, Axwell /\ Ingrosso, Armin van Buuren, Halsey, and many more.
He has established himself as one of the music industry’s most consistent and sought-after artists. Known for fusing his trademark Big Room anthems with Downtempo Electronica, he routinely showcases his gift for translating club-focused sounds to the Pop or radio format. This resulted in continued success on U.S. Dance Radio with tracks such as ‘Sunrise’ (2018), and ‘Take Your Time’ (2021). After hitting #1 on U.S. Dance Radio with his single ‘Save Me Tonight’, ARTY decided he wanted to transport fans back to the 2012 glory days of Progressive House.
ARTY is geared up to release some of his greatest work to date. When he’s not producing music or touring, he spends his downtime obsessing over Formula 1 racing. Or he dominates League of Legends and FIFA. Or he likes to sink into single-player narratives. He is also a fan of the Real Madrid and AC Milan soccer franchises, and the Washington Capitals hockey team.

With Aldae’s powerful vocals adding an extra layer of emotion to the track, ‘In the Dark’ is a testament to the magic that can happen when two musical visionaries come together.
The track’s message of finding light in the darkness is a theme that resonates with many listeners, making it not just a dancefloor anthem but a source of inspiration for those going through tough times. ‘In the Dark’ is more than just a collaboration between two artists – it’s a beacon of hope in a world that can often feel overwhelming.
David and I have been great friends for years, and we’ve always talked about working together. ‘In The Dark’ is a special blend of our styles, and I hope listeners can feel the admiration we have for each other’s work. This track also wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible Aldae, whose talents as a songwriter and vocalist are unrivaled.”

John Summit Inspires Vulnerability With Debut Album ‘Comfort In Chaos’

At last, the bender king blesses us with his masterpiece. From ‘Human’ , to ‘Where You Are’, we have followed and supported Illinois native John Summit. The golden child of this generation of EDM enthusiasts presents us his magnum opus. comfort in chaos is the debut album of the Experts Only label lead. With a long list of legendary collaborators including Kaskade, Sub Focus, Julia Church, Hayla and Of The Trees, to name a few. We will bask in the glory of this album, and honor the tracks that make us cry, dance, and cry again. With a little mix of Melodic House, Drum and Bass, Downtempo, and great vibes, we definitely pre-ordered the vinyls.
The Comfort in this Chaos
First thing first, let’s run back to the singles he has released in the last year that gave this album the expectation and excitement from fans all over the world. Singer and songwriter Hayla has become a major player in Daddy Summit’s team. Both ‘Shiver’ and ‘Where You Are’ channel her prowess with her ethereal vocals. Their lyrics are as lovingly and sentimental as the melodies. Unconditional love and the desperation to hold a moment in time is evident across the span of the album.
‘Resonate’ with Kaskade and Julia Church brought these feelings of being profoundly in love to life. This was also a heavily expected collab, as we all wanted Daddies Kaskade and Summit together, and after Summit’s legendary Arc Music Festival performance, we have waited for this track for almost a year. There is a lot of consistency in the album, with each track bringing a different melodic element to the table thar still encapsules similar sentiments. As a whole, the aesthetics of the album remain victoriuos.
Hidden Gems
Now we can get to the new tracks that pleasently surprised us. These tracks weren’t singles. However, they have a deeper connection to the idealities of the album that resonate heavily within the listener. ‘Stay With Me’ features organic bass and downtempo artist Of The Trees. The Maine native is a staple in the bass community with intricate sounds and focus on nature. His producing style is the perfect addition to comfort in chaos, with softer textures and inspiring vocals. ‘Undo’ continues the vulnerable side of Summit with a beautiful piano intro and vocals that remind us of the happy, good feeling of ‘What A Life’.
‘Comedown’ is a special track in LP with no features. It showcases the rawness of Summit in producing and the feeling after the party after the high is gone and everything slows down. Moreover, ‘Tears’ with Paige Cavell presents us with a very melancolic feeling, very similar to early 2010s progressive house we have all come to love. Lastly, we wanted to mention ‘Eat The Bass’. As the only sexy house track in the album, this track develops a different side of the album we don’t see in other tracks. Consequently, we could consider this song as part of the chaos.
Writer’s Pick
And alas, we still have to play favorites, cuz we can, and you can’t do anything about it. The pick for favorite track goes to… drum roll please… ‘Give Me Anything’ with Elderbrook. Where do we start? from Elderbrook’s sensational vocals, the inspiring beat, or the nasty Melodic Techno drop, this song merges the comfort and the chaos and brings out the perfect balance of both. If there is a track that fits right in the center of the album and pushes for a different sound that is totally different from all tracks but also is in perfect synergy with it, it’s this one.
We never doubted the ‘Deep End’ producer to provide us with a significant body of work. We have seen him transform from being an accountant to being one of the biggest DJs in the world. After massive number 1 hits, incredible sets in major stages all over the world, and great memes online, we give comfort in chaos our EDM Tunes seal of approval.
What’s next for Summit? We all hope there will be more music, more beautiful moments, and more memes. Bye bye!
