At first you barely hear it. Almost imperceptible, like a faint heartbeat under thundering drums and relentless rhythms. But you know it’s there. You can feel it. Then suddenly, two of the most recognisable notes in dance music history burst through in all their brilliance, demanding that a new generation of fans lose their sh*t on the dance floor.
The track in question is Tiësto‘s seminal masterpiece ‘Traffic’, the rework is by Techno star DIØN, and what’s about to drop is a hard dance cover for the absolute ages.

DIØN spoke about the significance the original single holds for him: “It was one of my first encounters with (electronic music). When I was really young my dad would pick me and my brother up from my grandmother who was watching us after school when my parents had to work. My dad always had this Tiësto CD playing in his car with this track ‘Traffic’ on it, and we would listen to it almost every time he picked us up. I never could have imagined that I would be doing a rework for this track.”
When it came to the production, DIØN knew how vital it was to walk the line between authenticity to both the original version, and his own, trademark style. “For me Tiësto is a real legend and this is my favourite track of his. I had to make something that would stick close to the original sound but also a track that I could play in my sets and have my own elements in it like signature drums and acid. My sold-out 10-hour set in Thuishaven in June was the first time I played it out and it went absolutely crazy, I saw the hole crowd just living in the moment of it, especially in the long and uplifting break. I’m very happy how it turned out.”
Weaving unforgiving ripsaw synths, depth-charged basslines, hardcore percussion and squelching, rave-style FX around Tiësto‘s iconic two-note riff like some sort of musical tornado, DIØN takes the original BPM and throws it out of the window without apology. His cover lands firmly in the heart of the hard dance arena, making it entirely appropriate that the track has just been named the official anthem for the Verknipt ArenA 2024 show in Amsterdam this summer, released on Verknipt Records.
DIØN‘s association with Verknipt has grown since the celebrated Dutch event gave their ADE stage to the youngster back in 2021. Delivering an explosive set that made the establishment sit up and pay attention, DIØN is now an integral part of the Verknipt family, headlining for them at shows around the world as they expand their global reach.
“DIØN’s rework of Tiësto’s ‘Traffic’ is a testament to his deep respect for electronic music history and his innovative approach to hard techno,” said Verknipt founder Mer Hajbarati. “By blending the iconic elements of the original with his signature hard-hitting style, DION has crafted a track that’s both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. This cover captures the essence of what the mission of Verknipt Records stands for- to champion the hard dance genres by providing an immersive platform for emerging and established artists. Our relationship with DION goes way back and we’ve grown together over the years, that’s why we can’t wait for him to play this track at the ArenA show, especially since it’s the anthem of the event.”
One of the most in-demand names in Hard Dance and Techno, DIØN courts support from some the genres’ biggest superstars, including Amelie Lens, Sara Landry, and Fatima Hajji. His ROUGH MATERIAL label showcase at legendary Dutch venue Paradiso earlier this year sold out in a matter of minutes, and in June he bought the proverbial house down with an epic, monstrous, 10 hour set at Thuishaven. As he prepares to unleash his take on ‘Traffic’ at arguably the biggest hard dance event of all time, it’s safe to say he’s cemented his seat at the A-list table.
DIØN – it’s a hard new world.

Liara Tsai, a local Minnesota DJ and Trevor Project volunteer, was killed at just 35 years old, Minnesota Public Radio reports.
Hailing originally from Mauston, Wisconsin, the transgender musician had just accomplished a long-anticipated move from Iowa City to join the Minneapolis EDM community. With a focus on spirituality, the techno and house music-focused DJ was beloved for her ability to freestyle all of her shows.
According to friends within the community, Tsai was starting to gain popularity and a dedicated fanbase as tragedy struck. She frequently performed around Minneapolis through one of the city's well-known promoters, Intellephunk, and had also recently become a crisis counselor for the promotion brand.
Along with her involvement in the music community, Tsai volunteered with the Trevor Project, a nonprofit organization focused on suicide prevention among LGBTQ+ individuals.
According to MPR, the DJ's former partner, Margot Lewis, was charged with two counts of second-degree murder in Minneapolis' Hennepin County. Tsai's autopsy reportedly revealed that she was found "with a puncture wound on her neck" and died as a result of "multiple sharp-force injuries."
Tsai and fellow DJ and friend Dana Kazuko were scheduled to have their first joint performance at Minneapolis' Uptown VFW today, July 5th. The performance will now be carried out solely by Kazuko, who is planning to play Tsai's music alongside a video she's prepared, per MPR. The show's proceeds will benefit Twin Cities Trans Mutual Aid.
We at EDM.com express our sincere condolences to the family, fans, friends and loved ones of Liara Tsai.

Listen to the most flavour-packed tracks we discovered this week.
Music makes the world go round. And in that regard, we’re constantly on the lookout for new, exciting tunes to share with our audience. We’ve found some that cause goosebumps, and make you open your eyes and get up from your chair to dance. So put on your best pair of headphones, or turn up your speakers, and enjoy this week’s New Music Friday.
Here are our top picks for the best music we came across this week, in no particular order. And remember, if you would like to contact us for a chance to feature your track on our page, head over to this link right here.
Darren Porter, XiJaro & Pitch – Reach for the Stars
Genre: Uplifting Trance
Kicking off this week in style with a genre that’s a favourite of the NMFs curator, Trance! Out today on Dreamstate Records is a starring new collaboration that sees powerhouse Darren Porter join forces with equally legendary duo XiJaro & Pitch. Jump in without hesitating, because here’s the purist note you needed this week: ‘Reach for the Stars‘.
The genre describes this one pretty well: Uplifting. This tune is so beautiful. The melody has the potential to make you levitate if you’re in the zone, and the whole track is built in a journey-like fashion. From the power-filled beat to the heavenly break and outstanding hooks, you’ll struggle not to replay this one once you’re finished.
TMPST feat. Idun Nicoline – Need To Be Found
Genre: Deep House
Staying on the “Melody and feelings” lane, here’s yet another warm and heartfelt piece for you all, albeit a bit slower and, well, deeper than the last entry. TMPST is becoming a mainstay over here, since this is the third track of him that we feature. This one is called ‘Need To Be Found‘, and features the vocals of Idun Nicoline.
A Deep, borderline Melodic House tune, ‘Need To Be Found’ explores the experience of feeling adrift and yearning for connection within a world that can often seem distant. TMPST views the release as an arrangement that can “capture those quiet moments of reflection and longing“. And we’d agree.
Arcando – Don’t Tell Me (VIP)
Genre: Drum & Bass, UK Garage
And talking about mainstays! Arcando is probably one of the artists we’ve shared the most in our New Music Friday compilations. And it’s not just because. He’s a terrific producer, as have testified Alok, Martin Garrix, The Chainsmokers, and many other industry leaders who love a good Arcando tune every now and then.
Drum & Bass? UK Garage? We’re not really sure about the genre of this particular track, but what we’re sure of is that it is a proper belter. The man behind the original ‘Don’t Tell Me‘ figured it could be directed into a different route and crafted this Variation In Progress — yes, that’s VIP for you. Just give it a listen, trust us.
Eskei83 feat. MARIELE – Run Alone
Genre: Drum & Bass
A feel-good, warm and Summer-suggesting Drum & Bass piece incoming! Hailing from Germany, Eskei83 is a leading DJ and producer who’s been at it for over ten years now. Far from being a conventional disc jockey, he also became Red Bull Thre3style’s World Champion (!). He offers a complete experience both in production and live mixing, as you may be able to tell.
And his latest certainly does not disappoint. ‘Run Alone‘ is the name of quite a happy track, one that was complete with the soothing vocals of MARIELE. The track blends offbeat piano riffs borrowed from House and some leads from Happy Hardcore even, to showcase a fine result which leaves a lasting impression, and a smile on the side.

Tiësto, Lucas & Steve feat. Silent Child – Zenless
Genre: Techno, Tech House
Award-winning DJ Tiësto and Dutch duo Lucas & Steve created ‘Zenless‘, the electrifying theme song for HoYoverse’s hit urban fantasy RPG Zenless Zone Zero. This genre-bending Dark Techno track blends Tiësto’s iconic style with Lucas & Steve’s futuristic soundscapes, aiming to capture the game’s vibrant world.
HoYoverse, the leader in cartoon rendering, AI, and cloud gaming (known for games like Genshin Impact), launched Zenless Zone Zero on July 4th for PlayStation 5, PC, iOS, and Android. The track, one of anthem-like quality for the game, counts with the mystery-themed vocals of Silent Child, for the finishing touch.
Bound to Divide – Gold Rush
Genre: Progressive House
Back to the deeper genres with this one! We’ve got a hot track courtesy of Bound to Divide, a South-African-born producer living in Bournemouth, UK. Not only does he do music, though, as Julian currently works on all fronts of Dance, as a Sound Designer, YouTuber, DJ, and composer.
His latest track, ‘Gold Rush‘, is one that features a melodic base, and melodic elements, but yet with a darker, sober feel to it. It’s a track that sounds wise, mature in a way. The machine-programmed beat and the analogue-sounding snare play a truly masterful role here breathing life and originality into a great piece.
T. Matthias, Adam Griffin & ALLKNIGHT – Saved Me
Genre: UK Garage
Perfect Havoc label boss and producer Adam Griffin brings a beautiful piece of Garage to the table today. He’s joined T. Matthias on a vocal-led future anthem they like to call ‘Saved Me‘. A collaboration of sorts could not get any better, you say? Enter Jodie Knight, under her Dance-focused alias, ALLKNIGHT.
Elegant, dynamically fast-paced, and truly wonderful, is our key analysis for you to understand this track in a nutshell. Not only does this tune portray a warm and positive story instrumentally, it also does a spectacular job of letting Jodie’s soft voice reign high aloft, making a memorable ensemble. Or in other words, “Mmmmmm“.
AFTERUS & Maxine – I’m Enough
Genre: Trance
I personally love the fact that this episode of NMF was almost entirely based on melody and feeling. And as such, why not close it on with a properly fitting Trance arrangement? Our last feature of this week comes from AFTERUS and Maxine, who’ve teamed up for this beautiful piece of Heaven: ‘I’m Enough‘.
The whole tune feels magical. The track engulfs and builds upon the vocal, and at the same time has enough personality to turn into a memorable melody. Add to that the fact that the evolution of the track is not overwhelming, but it instead allows you to enjoy the slowly-unfolding tension. Hats off to this piece. Enjoy it!

Belgian DJ and producer Amelie Lens has granted a fan guestlist and backstage access for life, she revealed in a lighthearted Instagram post.
As the techno superstar was milling around the 2024 Glastonbury Festival, she came across a sign reading, "Oli wasn't able to get tickets this year. Please ring & tell him how amazing it is," followed by the man's phone number. Lens then gave him a ring as the sign instructed and said, "I just wanted to call you to say how amazing it is here!"
Lens said that Oli had no idea who was calling until seeing her Instagram Reel. However, the joke started to sour when others started to call as well after seeing his number on her platform of over two million followers.
Feeling sorry for the influx of calls and messages Oli received, Lens made a deal with him—he changed his number, and she gave him guestlist and backstage access for life. Fair deal? We're sure Oli thinks so.
Check out Lens' lighthearted video below.

Channeling the mystique of its namesake, deadmau5's new single "Quezacotl" evokes a sense of wonder as the release date for a new EP looms large.
Premiered during his sold-out "retro5spective: 25 years of deadmau5" shows at the Hollywood Bowl and Brooklyn Mirage, "Quezacotl" has captivated audiences from the start, setting the stage for its official release via the producer's own mau5trap imprint.
Opening with dainty synths, the track's introduction flutters like the delicate wings of a mythical creature, tiptoeing across the auditory canvas. As the track unfurls, warm soundscapes crescendo and envelop us like a familiar embrace. 
"Quezacotl" seamlessly blends complexity with accessibility, a hallmark of deadmau5's best work. Uplifting melodies take flight, weaving through the soundscape with an airy grace as spritely synths dance amidst a lush backdrop, their tones friendly and inviting. It's a return to form for deadmau5, marking his first instrumental single since the release of 2022's "XYZ."
"Quezacotl" will be feature on the producer's upcoming three-song EP, "some ep," which is set to release on July 19th, 2024. Listen to the new single below and find it on streaming platforms here.

Drama ensues! World-Known Dutch DJ and producer Hardwell decided to call out SAGA Festival during his set on day one. It seems like equipment was malfunctioning so he decided to stop his set, grab the mic, cuss out the event, and acusse them of not paying him for his involvement. However SAGA clapped back at him on social media. The festival is currently taking place in Bucharest July 5-7. In addition, it offers a wide array of artists ranging from Nicki Minaj, Armin van Buuren, Deborah de Luca, and more.
Hardwell at SAGA
As seen above, Hardwell addresses the crowd and puts the organizers on blast for the equipment failure. Moreover, the artists claims the festival did not pay him for his set but he still went there to perform as his commitment for his fans outweighted the inconvinience.
Nevertheless, the festival was quick to fact-check Hardwell’s hard claims. Per below, the festival explains that had the DJ brought it to attention that the equipment was faulty, they would’ve rushed to help and make sure his set ran smoothly. Furthermore, they stated that the equipment came to Romania from the Netherlands, at the same time the DJ traveled to the event. Lastly, the organizers claim that the DJ was indeed paid, and the stage was functional for another major Headliner Will Sparks. Saga emphasized that other big names in the industry performed in all other stages without any issue.
What team are you on? Was Hardwell on the right to call out the event halfway through his set? Should we believe the SAGA’s claims that they would’ve cooperated with the artist? Did he get paid? So many questions, so little answers. We hope that we can find the truth in the situation and have both parties receive their best outcome, whatever it may be.

A collaboration from two long-time partners in crime has just hit the stores.
Great news comes today from the world of Tech House, in particular, that pumping House sound we all grew to know and love — and we get to hear it tonight from one of its trailblazers. We’re talking about the Toolroom sound, the one that can’t fail to get a crowd moving. Today, the leading imprint welcomes a track coming from its founder, Mark Knight himself, in tandem with James Hurr, becoming one of the classic collaborating duos of this corner of Dance music.
A powerhouse DJ and Grammy-nominated producer, Mark Knight truly is a Dance music icon. His career, one who’s seen him making music for around 20 years now, has turned him into a living legend status, being the proper spearhead of the Toolroom sound ever since. Chart-topping anthems like ‘Man With The Red Face’ and collaborations with Faithless and Underworld solidify his legacy.
On the other side of the ring, long regarded as one of the go-to producers in the UK electronic scene, James Hurr has made his name as a prolific writer/producer. He’s worked with an impressive roster of A-tier artists, which include Tiësto, Fisher, Armin Van Buuren, Acraze, and many more. Being a Toolroom mainstay for years at this point, a new track from him on the imprint is to be expected — yet never underestimated.
‘You Take Me Higher’
Their latest endeavour comes after conjoint hits like ‘Movin’, ‘Make You Happy’ alongside legend Todd Terry, a cover of the infamous ‘Lady’, and even an earlier release of this year, ‘I Got All This Love’. July’s single, ‘You Take Me Higher‘, sees the lads make fantastic use of the classic Sandy Mercer vocal sample and layer it over a straight-up, Disco-laced House groove, for the ultimate dancefloor weapon.
There’s nothing else to add, it’s a simple formula, but one that works every time, assuming you pull it off correctly. And I wouldn’t doubt one second that these two did. It’s got “summer” written all over it, and we bet this one will be rinsed all across the Northern Hemisphere this season.

After declaring himself cancer-free last December after his battle with a rare form of brain and spinal cancer, known as CNS Lymphoma, Michael Bibi is now focusing his efforts on raising awareness and funding resources for cancer patients. The DJ/producer will encourage attendees of his One Life London event this weekend to join the stem cell transplant register.
One Life London will take place this Saturday, July 6th at Finsbury park, where 45,000 people are expected to attend. Bibi has invited Anthony Nolan, a charity centered on matching donors with patients in need of stem cell transplants, to set up a booth at the event to spread awareness for their cause. Attendees are encouraged to stop by the booth and consider joining the register, especially 16-30-year-olds, as research has shown that younger stem cell donors lead to more successful outcomes for cancer patients. Bibi will also sell One Life merchandise at the event to raise funds for the Royal Marsden hospital in London, which is where he received treatment himself last year.
In a statement, Bibi said: “Last summer I was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer and given just a 30% chance of survival. Advancements in medical treatments like stem cell transplants gave me a second chance at life and are crucial in battling these conditions.”
After celebrating the end of his battle with cancer last December, Bibi has returned to playing a few select shows; however this weekend’s One Life party marks his biggest event yet since his return. The DJ/producer announced his One Life tour back in January, which will kick off this weekend in London before heading to several locations throughout Europe. You can get more info and purchase tickets for all events here.

This new track by Buranello is an intense, textured sound, designed to create moments of tension and euphoria. DJs have had access to the track on Beatport since the 21st of June.

Marika embodies Buranello’s progressive vision of groove, showcasing his ability to create music that appeals to both critics and the general public. His recently released EP, “Fading,” also received acclaim from major artists. “Marika” represents a notable achievement for Buranello, having been personally selected by the “Father of House Music,” legendary DJ and music producer David Morales, during a live online A&R session. Morales, along with Frankie Knuckles, is historically regarded as a pioneer of House music. “Frankie Knuckles was my older sister”, said David Morales to The Guardian once.
Both have influenced a wide range of producers, leading to a new approach to music production, characterised by vocals and melodious arrangements. “Marika” has also garnered support from prominent artists such as Anthony Pappa, Ilario Alicante, Steve Lawler, and Paco Osuna.

The track evolves continuously, beginning with an engaging melody and dynamic percussion, and culminating in a high-energy peak. The captivating melody and aggressive bassline are complemented by drum samples and synthesiser tones. Buranello utilised plugins such as U-He’s Diva and Arturia’s Pigments 5 to create a unique atmosphere.
“David Morales heard my music during an online event where producers could submit their tracks for feedback from various artists. He was very impressed with ‘Marika’ and decided to sign it to his label, Diridim. In May, I had the opportunity to attend a music production retreat with David Morales, Josh Wink, Marshall Jefferson, and Funk D’Void. We met in person for the first time and developed a great chemistry. Since then, I’ve been in close contact with David and the label,” said Buranello.

The climax of “Marika” is a moment of pure energy, where the combination of all elements creates a sense of euphoria. The progression of the music maintains the listener’s attention, building up to a powerful and exhilarating peak.
In his statement to Mixmag Brazil, Buranello expressed his commitment to not being confined to a single production style. “I love the melodic and progressive, so my productions will always revolve around these styles. Some will lean more towards one side, others towards the other, and sometimes a blend of both. Each genre has its unique sounds, and I will always produce what I enjoy and what I want to play.”
Buranello hopes his music evokes various emotions in listeners and creates unforgettable moments on the dance floor. With new releases and collaborations on the horizon, he is poised to continue surprising and delighting his audience.

The single is a rework of BootlegBoys‘, aka Keith Mac and Matt Clayden, single titled ‘Euro Friendly’ released on the Labello Dance record label in October 1994.
You may have heard elements of this single before, Mark from Luv Foundation (UK) goes on to say “I remember going to TRADE back in 1995, I was only 16 years old and heard this track played by the legendary late Tony De Vit in his set, I remember going into the record exchange shop in Soho, London and grabbing a compilation album called FLYING HIGH where the track was featured, it has been a huge part of my life and DJ sets and I regularly use the Original for GYM sets and cardio sets to this day”.
It’s no surprise that Mark would reach out to Keith Mac and ask if they could rework this underground 1994 classic, and with permission to add a new vocal around the hook line of the original. Ashley teaming up once more with Lucas Marx have added a new verse and re-tweaked the original hook line and we have to say they capture something pretty amazing around the hook line, which will captivate you instantly.
Mark from Luv Foundation (UK) came up with the concept of the artwork, social and lyric video, bringing a nostalgic feel using stickmen dancing with Sean Keepin bringing Mark‘s vision to life.

Be careful, it’s witch hour… The High Priestess of Hard Techno aka Sara Landry introduces us to her second single leading into her highly anticipated album. ‘Prisoner‘ featuring Alex Ferral is that magical prowess we love from the Austin-born self-taught producer.
Arriving on her imprint HEKATE , ‘Prisoner’ offers a collaborative testament to Sara Landry’s passion for innovation, exploration and experimentation. Born from a moment of complete spontaneity, ‘Prisoner’ originated from a text Landry sent to Alex Farrell when he touched down in Amsterdam late last year. Within a few short hours – quite literally by the time Farell took the stage for his Verknipt set that same evening – the dynamic composition was completed. 
‘Prisoner’
A masterful interplay between chaos and ritual, ‘Prisoner’ reveals itself as a visceral, yet transcendent experience. It demonstrates the tour de force’s intuitive ability to create ceremonial spaces amongst the highest of frequencies. The juxtaposition of the track’s unrelenting bassline and intoxicating vocal elements that weave throughout its frenetic pulse transport listeners on a cathartic odyssey where sonic and spiritual resonance collide, all at Landry’s command.
The High Priestess
An irrefutable powerhouse in the genre, Landry has quickly become one of the most captivating artists in today’s electronic scene. She is known for her dark, driving and divinely feminine brand of hard techno. The self-taught producer, audio engineer and DJ has earned a cult-like following at nothing short of a meteoric pace. Powerfully, she has amassed over 1 MILLION monthly listeners on Spotify. Moreover, she consistently sells out some of the world’s biggest stages with unprecedented fervor.
She is specifically a conduit to otherworldly sonic realms. Each of Landry’s thunderous productions are deliberate, witchy and uniquely in a category of their own. Her dynamic sound and unbridled authenticity have carved out a singular niche for the phenomenon as she crafts fully immersive, safe spaces for audiences. Surrender yourselves to the recesses of her vibrations. 
Claiming the title of the biggest hard techno ticket seller in the world, Landry opened the year with a sold out ‘All Night Long Tour’ with shows in cities across Europe. Furthermore, she had a 9,000 ticket sold out headline show in Bogota and two sold out shows at 516 Anderson St. in Los Angeles.
