Andres Buzo Brings Dark Techno Vibes With ‘I Like Your Body’

Andres Buzo, born in Mexico City, started his music career in collaboration with Xavier May. As a pairing, they released several singles and an EP on the progressive house label Silver Planet and appeared on many compilations. Now after gaining some traction in the industry, Andres is focusing on his solo project presenting us with a brand new single titled ‘Andres Buzo Brings Dark Techno Vibes With ‘I Like Your Body’.
‘I Like Your Body’ is an electrifying techno track that opens with deep percussion and intricate sound effects. Atmospheric synth pads and sharp staccato stabs create a complex, textured soundscape. A distorted vocal sample repeating “I like your body” adds a sensual touch to the mechanical beat. The track slowly evolves in energy adding more arpeggiated synths that drive the melody. The breakdown strips back the layers, building anticipation for the syncopated drop that follows, introducing fresh melodic elements. This track is a perfect blend of rhythm and atmosphere, ideal for late-night sets and underground clubs where energy dominates the dance floor.

EDMTunes Chats with Kamil Ghaouti

Techno titans, rejoice! EDMTunes is jacked to lock into the world of Kamil Ghaouti, a name synonymous with powerful beats and pulsating energy on the dance floor. Having already carved a distinct path in the techno sphere, Kamil Ghaouti weaves intricate soundscapes that have captivated crowds worldwide. Get ready to explore the rhythmic mind behind the music, their production secrets, and the future vision for techno in this electrifying interview!
Can you share with us your journey from Morocco to Los Angeles and how your cultural background influences your music?
I started making music at age 15 when I was still going to high school in Morocco, I then moved to Madrid, Spain at 18 for a few years and finally decided to move to LA to pursue music full-time a year and a half ago. Ever since I was a kid even before starting to make music, I knew I’d end up in LA someday so when the occasion presented itself, I had already made up my mind. I honestly can’t think of a more suitable city to do what I’m doing and pursue the goals I have. I don’t think I would’ve been able to meet this many creative people who I work with a lot anywhere else and the city itself makes it so easy to feel inspired and driven. I grew up listening to so many different genres I can’t really say Arabic music influences what I end up creating a lot, but I do feel like there’s a certain sense of rhythm and a great use of percussions present in the more traditional music popular in Morocco which makes me more prone to implement the same things in my music.
What inspired you to start your own label, Kameleon Records, at such a young age, and what vision do you have for its future?
To be honest, I always had the idea of making my own record label in the back of my head, but I never thought I would act on it this early on in my career. I just got to a point where I had too much unreleased music that I loved and that other labels didn’t seem to be interested in and I thought why not release all of them under the same structure with the same visual direction. I’m still working with other labels the way I used to before launching Kameleon but knowing I have this structure gives me a feeling of freedom I didn’t really have before. Another thing I love about having my own label is hearing unreleased tunes from friends and collaborators and believing in some of these so much that I want to try and push them as much as possible. I love the idea of playing a role in the release of a dope record without necessarily being involved in the production and music side of things.
Despite your early success, you remain incredibly humble. How do you maintain this attitude, and what drives you to work hard towards your goals?
Thank you! I’m real far from where I want to be in my career even though I’m extremely grateful and proud of everything that’s been happening the past decade, so I always have lots of goals and things to look forward to and work towards. A lot of the dreams I had when I first got started in music already came true but I know the hardest is yet to come and I love it. I used to be a bit scared that after reaching certain milestones I would lose motivation and get complacent, but it had quite the opposite effect so I’m excited for the future and more confident than ever before.
How do you balance the creative aspects of being an artist with the business responsibilities of running your own label?
I’m honestly never happier than when I’m making music and creating so the business side of things is obviously not as fun and fulfilling but it’s very much necessary if you want music to be your full-time job and not just a hobby. When I’m lucky, I get to spend the same amount of time making music and handling business in a day but most days I have to spend more time running the label and my career from a business standpoint. What really helps is that I made so much music that I love these past years that I always have new stuff to release without having to work on new material all the time, which gives me more time to spend on marketing these records and dealing with everything else at the label.
At just 23, you’ve already achieved a lot. What are your main goals for the next few years, both as an artist and as a label owner?
Much appreciated. As an artist, my goals have changed a lot over the years as I realized the things I thought would make me a fulfilled artist didn’t necessarily so now I’m all about staying true to my authentic sound, which I haven’t really had trouble doing up to now, releasing as much of the music I love as possible and eventually being able to look back on my discography decades from now and feel deeply proud. As a label owner, my goals and promise to myself and supporters is to only release the music that moves me and that I’m excited to play out at shows and push as much as I can from people I really believe in, both as artists and people. At first, I wasn’t really planning on releasing music other than mine in the first year of the label, but I ended up receiving songs I liked so much I could only say yes to release and do my best to market them and I’m learning so much because of it.
Tell us what we can expect from you over the rest of 2024.
The best music I’ve put out yet, a release on my dream label end of summer, and more consistency than ever before.

Ben Böhmer Reveals New Album, "Bloom": Listen to the Stunning Lead Single

True to form, Ben Böhmer's new single is a masterclass in translating life's messiness into evocative dance music.
The German electronic music virtuoso delves into the murky depths of self-sabotage in "Best Life," the lead single from his upcoming album Bloom, which he revealed today.
Featuring singer-songwriter duo JONAH, the track shimmers with indie sensibilities and bittersweet nostalgia, artfully capturing the disorienting paradox of looking back while being propelled forward. Its lyrics reflect on mistakes made and relationships frayed, mirroring our own fractured minds when we experience the ache of lost connection.
JONAH's plea, "Look at me and say it's alright," hangs heavy over Böhmer's intoxicating production, a desperate cry for absolution that questions whether or not love can weather self-inflicted storms. Meanwhile, misty-eyed recollections of a former flame "dancing in the headlights" plummet us even further into the depths of the melancholia.
"'Best Life' was born out of an unexpected moment," Böhmer tells EDM.com. "It wasn't part of the plan, but the song emerged from a shared vulnerability with my collaborator [Angelo of JONAH]. The initial lyric fragment, 'Best Life, I just fucked it up,' struck a raw nerve, and the song became a way to explore the emotional rollercoaster ride of trying, failing and trying again, and sometimes losing important people along the way. These experiences leave an indelible mark on us, shaping who we are. I wanted to capture that raw honesty and vulnerability. We all face challenges and setbacks, but it's crucial to embrace those imperfections, learn from them, and keep pushing forward."
Scheduled to release via Ninja Tune on September 27th, Bloom is Böhmer's third studio album and first since 2021's Breathe Again. The project will also feature "One Last Call," a scintillating collaboration with Berlin-born singer-songwriter Felix Raphael.
Bloom, Böhmer tells us, is "the most vibrant and diverse album" he's ever written.
"Throughout its creation, I felt a sense of freedom that allowed me to explore many new directions," Böhmer explained. "The album was crafted in two primary settings: in nature and at home. After extensive touring, I found balance and solace in nature, which became a significant source of inspiration. I often found myself retreating to natural surroundings, where I wrote large portions of the album. I also set up a home studio, where I acquired an upright piano and engaged in traditional songwriting."
"Working directly from the comfort of my home in a cozy environment, and from composing on a piano to jamming with singers, naturally led me to incorporate many organic sounds and classical song structures," he continued. "Two of the tracks, 'Evermore' and 'Rain,' were even re-recorded with a 40-string orchestra [the FAMES Orchestra]. It felt only natural to choose a title that reflected this influence. Bloom represents the diversity, colors and equilibrium that nature brought into my life."

From Concept to Reality: Nymfo reflects on first year of Love For Low Frequencies (LFLF)

A year has flown by since the launch of Love For Low Frequencies (LFLF), the brainchild of drum & bass veteran Nymfo. With over a dozen releases already under its belt, the label has exceeded expectations and garnered a dedicated following. 
To mark the milestone for his very much sought-after deep and techy D&B label, Nymfo (Bardo Camp) and LFLF core member/documentary maker VOXI (Tamara van der Vos) sat down for a candid conversation about the label’s journey, challenges, aspirations and the recent premiere of ‘For The Love Of Low Frequencies’ documentary at Melkweg, Amsterdam. Enjoy.
Well, congratulations. Over a dozen releases in the first year. How does it feel? 
Nymfo: Yes, I’m proud, too. I didn’t really expect that much positive feedback already. But it’s going much better than expected. 
In the documentary, it was mentioned that the initial plans for LFLF started coming along in 2020. Back then, you let the people you wanted to work with, like Waeys and Rueben, know that it would still take some time. Do you think that, in hindsight, really taking that time, helped? 
Yes, I wanted to prepare well. Because you see new labels being launched. And then people often announce ‘something big is in the making’… And then? There’s one release. Maybe a second one. And then it dies a bit, you know. 
And yes, I had imagined that I wanted the first five releases to be ready, before I announced it. Because then you can start, you can do a release every month. It’s better than creating a hype and then it dies. Nowadays, you just have to (keep going) you can’t do a release and then nothing for a year. Because everyone has already forgotten you.
And then you have a certain creative margin for, in this case, your artists too?
Yes, definitely. Especially the first five (EP’s) it just took a while, and then I was curious about how many demos I was going to get, as soon as people knew I had a label. I am impressed, there are a lot of good producers out there. But I have to say the next release takes a little longer before it comes out.
There have been some challenges with the masters that took a little longer. But I do want to be in the picture every month or every other month. But it depends on getting enough demos. The music has to keep its quality. You don’t want to release just for the sake of it. But that hasn’t happened anyway. 
What was the biggest challenge after all? 
The preparations took a long time. Back then, nobody knew I wanted to start a label. I had to contact all the artists via SoundCloud and such. And that took a while. Back then, I was starting from scratch, like a nobody.
You’re still Nymfo…
Yes, but some people would rather send a demo to Critical Recordings or Dispatch. I found a few artists who had the patience to wait. I said: I want to release your music, but it’s going to take a while before I’m there.
And then there was the scheduling involved to do a release every month. I have to give credit to Lars Dingeman from Triple Vision. He works behind the scenes and helps me a lot.
For you, it’s a new role, being a label boss. Something else. How do you see it? 
I found out that I’m pretty good at it because I’m always on point. What I miss with a lot of labels is actual human contact. You send demos to whoever, and you don’t even get a response. And if you get a response you don’t really communicate, while nowadays it’s super easy to connect.
What I do with every artist I sign: I call them and say thanks for sending me music. Then they’re surprised, because, an actual label is calling them. I communicate well, and check the wishes of the artist. And it’s going really well.
While being a father, do you see taking on this role as a natural evolution in terms of being a mentor? 
Maybe from being a father, but also due to age. I’m 42. I always say I don’t want to end up spinning records far into my sixties. You have to know your place. Eventually you got to step down and make room for other artists. That’s how I feel.
I get a lot of energy from running LFLF. Everyone is happy and grateful. Especially with the label. It’s super cool. I have the network and can handle it easily. It feels natural to me and I can still keep performing, but don’t have to do it every weekend. I’ve had that time.

I just watched the documentary and it was really cool. Especially the many shots of you from back in the day. Did you sit with Tamara (VOXI) to edit the footage? 
At first, Tamara used footage from my set at Star Warz, back in 2005. She went through a lot of footage. I figured it would be cool if the documentary started fast-paced. With a lot of shots, intense music etc. Then I found an old compilation video and we used some footage from that. Perhaps Tamara can add something? 
Tamara: There are actually two versions of the documentary. The first version had a single-shot intro from Star Warz. A jump back in time: Young Nymfo playing a vinyl set, a young Andy C giving Nymfo a heads-up that he had a couple of minutes left from his set. Which I thought was pretty funny. 
What stood out for me: how intense the crowd was; really enjoying themselves, no phone in sight. The shot made me feel like I was there. I sent this version to a short music documentary film festival, but it wasn’t selected. 
I figured the best way to push this documentary was to gather D&B heads and screen the documentary at Melkweg Cinema during Curated by Talks on LFLF’s first anniversary. It was the perfect time and place. And of course it’s now available on LFLF’s YouTube channel. 
Did you change a lot for this version? 
Tamara: Only the intro. For the screening in Melkweg Bardo had an alternative fast-paced intro in mind, which was a compilation of him DJing around the world. I selected the best shots from the compilation and cut some shots a bit shorter so it would have a good pace. Bardo took care of the music.  
Bardo: The rest of the LFLF docu Tamara prepared it very well. She made a script. During ADE, she interviewed all the artists. It came together really well, and it builds up to the first label night during ADE. 
Last week we did the premiere for this version at the Melkweg, Amsterdam, and it was really cool. Many friends and acquaintances were there. And you could feel the vibe of the writer’s camp. And above all- you can do cool things with nice people. 
Do you have specific goals for the next year you want to share?
I want to expand the label night to more places in Europe and at some point abroad. I want to expand that steadily. Furthermore, I am looking for a vinyl release; a compilation of the first year, something like that. Hopefully the expansion will go faster than expected.
And keep building with the releases, but with a few key artists. I hope some artists will send me demos that already had a release, so we have some familiar faces. It is important for the organisation. 
Any upcoming shows this summer worth mentioning?
We are doing a LFLF showcase at the Liquicity Festival that will be announced soon. What is the stage called Tamara?

Tamara: Nebula.
And with ADE we are doing something at a new location in the north of Amsterdam. 
And of course your radio show…

Yes, I have a monthly Kool FM showcase with LFLF. Especially in the UK, it’s popular, really cool. Every month, when I have a release, I can showcase a guest mix. 
Do you also mix yourself? 
Sometimes I host. It depends on my time. I have to prepare. Sometimes it is a one-hour mix with new LFLF tunes. Or a guest mix. It is a way to test the music.
We’re highlighted there every month on the app and website, so people see the name. Kool FM is big in the UK. It is part of Rinse FM.
We have a showcase in Ghent, Belgium on June 21st. The UK is the target for one of the next foreign showcases. I am looking into it, but so much has changed after Covid in England. It is harder.
Awesome. Last question. Being the curator of your own label nights with Love For Low Frequencies –  what would you like to convey vision-wise? 
Positive vibes. Good energy. And of course the music itself. You see a lot of the same names on line-ups these days, and I want to give other artists a platform. 
We are still building the foundation for these showcases, and eventually, I want to work towards a bigger budget with a wider line-up. But also expand the visual presentation.

Pioneering Producer Rustie Returns With First Release in 9 Years, "Black Ice Mudra"

Rustie has returned with "Black Ice Mudra," his first new song in nearly a decade.
Rustie's name may not be big in today's TikTok-era music scene of viral-today-forgotten-tomorrow hits, but he's one of the world's most influential electronic artists. Thanks to his singular sound in which glitchy textures and buoyant melodies collide, he's your favorite producer's favorite producer.
Simultaneously avant-garde and playful, Rustie's tracks are aural funhouses where fizzy bitpop synths pirouette with staccato drum cracks. His fans have been willingly devolving into his wormholes of radiant bass and mind-bending beats since 2011, when he released his debut album Glass Swords.
The pioneering Glasgow producer is now back with his first new release since 2015's Warp Records album, EVENIFUDONTBELIEVE. That year saw Rustie cancel a number of shows "due to addiction and mental health problems," he announced at the time.
Devoid of drums, "Black Ice Mudra" channels his signature maximalist electronica by virtue of a flurry of piercing rave synths. It's unclear at the time of this writing whether or not a long-form project is in the works. Check out the new track below.

Avicii’s Posthumous Album ‘TIM’ Has Turned 5 Years Old

On 20th April 2018 the world was hit with the devastating news that Avicii had taken his own life. The pain of his loss was felt all across the world by his countless fans, his family, his friends and left a gaping hole in the music world that still hasn’t healed. Due to his passing, he left behind a lot of unreleased and unfinished tracks that would unfortunately likely not see the light of day. But in the wake of his death Avicii’s parents Klas Bergling and Anki Liden agreed that they didn’t want his final work to be locked away and that it should be released to his fans. With their blessing work began on completing what would become his final album, ‘Tim.’
A set of 16 songs were chosen to be worked on by several producers, performers and writers who had been working on these songs with Avicii or who had worked with him on previous projects to ensure his true vision for the songs was achieved. A very welcome name to see appear on the album was Aloe Blacc who would provide the vocals on ‘SOS’ which would be the first single on the album. Aloe Blacc had previously worked with Avicii on one of his most successful and most loved tracks ‘Wake Me Up’ which launched Avicii to stardom and showed his incredible talent for mixing genres. ‘Tim’ would include several other big names in music with the likes of Chris Martin, Bonn, Dan Reynolds and many of his former collaborators.
‘Tim’ was very well received by fans and was a wonderful tribute to Avicii that stayed true to his style. On several of the songs the MIDI information in the projects had been saved so you can actually hear him playing the synths in some of the songs. The album takes on a rather solemn tone for the greater part but has some moments of joy amidst it with the likes of ‘Heaven’ that provides a wonderful uplifting feeling through the amazing lyrics and fantastic delivery by Chris Martin of Coldplay. ‘SOS’ tackles a tough subject as the lyrics feel like a cry out for help from Avicii himself which is quite haunting to hear. Despite this Aloe Blacc said “I think it’s a really important topic to approach and to share especially with his visibility and his access to ears and hearts. To give people the words to be able to say ‘I need help’” which is a positive way to look at it a really good message to those out there who are struggling mentally.
This album gave everyone the opportunity to hear Avicii’s creativity one last time which was a wonderful gift that helped a lot of people in the healing process following his death. All the money made from the album went straight into the Tim Bergling Foundation which is an organisation formed by Avicii’s parents to help raise money to assist in fighting mental health issues. Fans would also get a chance to hear some of the songs from the album live at the Avicii Tribute Concert which brought together many of his former collaborators and a full orchestra to perform his music in a way never heard before. The loss of Avicii is something that the music world will never recover from, but ‘Tim’ added another chapter in his story to help ensure that his music would live forever.

[Interview]Brigado Crew: More Than Music, It’s Symbiosis

As you may know, Symbiosis is the benefitial ecological relationship between two or more organisms. This allows for both species to thrive in a hostile environment. No no, we don’t mean to bring you back to biology class. We want to introduce you to Brigado Crew‘s up and coming project. The Argentinian duo sat down with EDM Tunes for an exclusive interview to discuss Melodic Techno, their Symbiosis label and events, and their inspirations for their body of work.
You just played in Belgium at a festival. How did it go?
BC: Good, good. Luckily it went very well. First festival here in Belgium and everything turned out very nice.
The Melodic Techno genre has been standing out in the English language and with respect to your musical repertoire, many of the vocals in you songs are in English. Do you think it is easier to produce songs in English?
BC:Yes, the grace and the power of English more than anything, anyone can understand it in the world. However, we have a new production with a Spanish vocal and it’s a gamble to see how people react. We already did a remix to an Argentinian band called Peces Raros. Now we have a new collaboration with them and it’s a gamble to see how it is received by listeners. That leads to our other question, because I feel that it is a little easier to have a larger audience in English. Do you think that to be successful in this genre, there is that pressure to write in English? There’s pressure, but In electronic music in general, let’s say, 80-90% of the tracks that have vocals are in English. It’s already the default. Obviously not 100%, but 80-90% sure.
You have mentioned before that your brand, as such, your style, is very based in the music of the 80s in a futuristic sense. What are other sources of inspiration for your music?
BC: Well, we are always attentive to what is playing by other artists and others, rock in general, that’s why we also have indie, that’s also why we are related to the guys from Peces Raros. And well, we are also always attentive to national and international artists. Whoever is within reach to be able to collaborate. We are very open to collaborations. We have always been very confident that more than one artist can collaborate a lot, can contribute a lot to of creativity. So we are always looking for inspiration on that side, with different artists, listening to Indie music in general, electronics in general, and well, also strongly influenced that way.
You have plenty of tracks with Crisstiano, so I wanted to talk more about how you got to work with him and what keeps you working with him?
BC:Well, we’ve been working with Crisstiano for a long time. Basically, there is a friendship with him. And well, apart from that, there is a very good chemistry when working in the studio. He is also a great DJ and electronic music producer. And well, over time a flow of work and a very good chemistry was generated we rescued that, as Brian said, we like to have that situation of being able to collaborate and work also with other artists, that in this electronic music is more individualistic.
The DJs, the DJ world is more individualistic, unlike the world of bands, where the musicians who work on a song, we always liked that, that there are other heads, apart from ours. Of course we also have songs where it’s only Brigado Crew. But Crisstiano is a long-time work friendship. We benefit from it, and very good things come out when we produce together.
A lot of the cities you play in are located in South America and Europe. We wanted to know, how does each place perceive your music?
BC: Well, the audience varies a lot, as I said, it depends on the region. Obviously, everything related to Latin America, the audience is warmer, closer, maybe they ask you for more messages on social media, they ask for photos, they scream more. On the other hand, in Europe it’s a little colder, more distant. However, we are grateful that there is always good feedback, we’ve always had a good relationship with the places we play in.
We have not been unlucky enough that a venue doesn’t book us again. We have always come back. I think, almost all the clubs, in some festivals we have played once alone, We’ve played in almost every club. We’ve played in some festivals just once, because the festival didn’t return the following year. And the reception is good. People ask you for a song before the show. They send you a message, saying they want to hear this or that. So we’re grateful that we’ve always had that feedback of 7 or 8 requests up on each show.
Have you toured in the US?
BC:We are starting the process of the artist visa which is a basic requirement to be able to enter the US and to be able to go and do our work so we haven’t had a tour in the US for that reason.
And I have noticed that a lot of DJs such as Nora en Pure or Solomun have played your songs in the United States. When you come to the United States you will be welcomed. What is your vision for the project Symbiosis?
BC: Well, let’s say that it all started with that possibility that you mentioned, of our album. At that time we were thinking about a concept, we liked the symbiosis concept, we believe in it a lot. It also comes a little to the conclusion of what I was telling you before, this of the joint work, of many heads thinking for a result, for an end. It’s something we’ve been bringing up since the beginning of our career. We say, well, let’s work together to reach a certain goal. Let’s add someone to add a certain idea, and among all of us. Basically, what has to do with symbiosis.
BC: We released our first album, called Symbiosis, with the title track. We released it on a very well-known label worldwide, based in Germany, Steel Wall Talent. And well, as a result of that, we started to think about also having our own brand, our own label. And we said, well, why not also, since we started with that concept that our first album was called Symbiosis why not also put our record label Symbiosis so we started last year in April it was the first release we had in Symbiosis. Now we are about to launch the 8th single. Time Slave was the 7th. We will have many releases to come in the next months, with great artists and parties of the record label so very happy with that project that goes in parallel to Brigado Crew
You already have some collaborations that are releasing soon. What are other artists that you’d want to work with?
BC: We have talked about doing things with the guys from Township Rebellion, Citizen Kain, Idylwild, but due to time issues we haven’t done anything. We also know that this year is very busy, we don’t want to neglect our original songs. We have remixes to do, we have everything about the label, the party, so with Citizen Kain for example we talked last year to work together, we started it and then it was kind of frozen because we have had too much going on and we have not been able to concretize it.
We wanted to know where you get most of your inspiration from? Besides the idea of Symbiosis, everyday things in your life or some hobbies you have that have influence your sound?
BC: Basically, the ideas that we have ideas for the parties we do. We want the symbiosis concept to be in everything, from the music, the visuals, so that people can interact with us, the artists, with the merchandising, with a lot of things so that when people go to the Symbiosis party, they can say, this was a different party. It was a party where I felt a part of, where I could interact with the DJs. Where the DJs seemed to be connected with us, not only in music, but in a lot of other things. So, based on all that concept, the idea of the party comes, and the idea of everything we have to do from here to the future.
We’re really excited to see your next parties when you have your visa approved. That’s our time for today. This was EDM Tunes with Brigado Crew, until next time.

Limited Storage Capacity: The space is quite minimal, so it might not be sufficient for carrying all your rave essentials. For those needing more room, a larger pack might be necessary. Durability Concerns: Since this product does not belong to a well-known brand, we are facing some concerns. Even though it is waterproof,  the overall quality might not be as good as other high-end options, which could affect its longevity after using it regularly. Verdict:
This 5th option is a good choice for those seeking a vibrant and waterproof option. However, for those who prioritize security and need ample storage space, this pack may not meet all requirements.

Durability Concerns: There’s no brand recognition and the materials used may not be as reliable as those in other high-quality rave fanny packs. Verdict:
While this Fanny Pack is a fashionable and fun choice for festivals, it has limited security features and capacity.

LSDREAM and CloZee Announce Debut LSZEE Album

A new supergroup is well on their way with new music, and their name is LSZEE.
The dynamic duo, a joint effort between LSDREAM and CloZee, is set to release a pair of singles, "French Dream" and "Chrysalis," later this week. The tracks are setting the stage for something much bigger, however: a debut album slated for release in September.
The journey of LSZEE began back in 2022 during a studio trip to Joshua Tree, where the two artists discovered a profound creative synergy.
"We tapped into the most abundant creative spark, and the music just started flowing,” they said in a joint statement. "We kept writing more and more songs, exploring new ideas that inspired us, and having the best time, being in awe of each other’s creativity."
Save for a few previews of unreleased songs, no one quite knows what to expect from LSZEE in the studio or on stage. But that hasn't stopped this project from picking up steam as CloZee and LSDREAM are set to take the stage together at a series of high-profile events and festivals this summer, including Electric Forest, North Coast, Bass Canyon and Colorado's iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre.
View the original article to see embedded media.
"This body of work, about 20 collabs is what the LSZEE live show is built around," they added. "The 90-minute set is mostly this original music, and of course a few tunes from the homies. You won’t hear that many songs from our personal catalog, but we did do some LSZEE remixes for some of our favorites!"
LSZEE's self-titled debut album is due for release on September 27th, 2024. You can pre-save the album here and check out its artwork below.

Major Fire Breaks Out Near Ibiza Airport, Causes Delays In Flights

Planes to and from the island experienced temporary setbacks due to the smoke.
A fire broke out near Ibiza Airport earlier today, causing delays for travellers and disrupting traffic flow. The sinister happened in the Citubo warehouse, one located close to the airport runways, and which reportedly contained various products like gardening equipment, furniture, and household items. An adjacent car rental building was also affected by the fire.
Due to its proximity to IBZ, the Ibiza International Airport, the blaze significantly impacted air travel, with reports of at least 13 departing flights and 19 arriving ones experiencing a delay. The main cause of this was the huge column of smoke emerging from the warehouse, visible, according to some witnesses, up to the opposite side of the island.
A passenger landing at IBZ captured the smoke from another angle. There are no reports of injuries or deaths at the time of writing, with the only hurt individual being an elderly man who received treatment for smoke inhalation. As for the workers inside the warehouse itself, all employees were evacuated swiftly within minutes. The fire destroyed the 1,000-square-metre warehouse, though, with authorities anticipating a potential collapse soon. The cause of the fire remains unknown.

Diplo Reveals $100m Mansion In Jamaica

Diplo took to Instagram to unveil a very special place to him. He penned a heartfelt message to the world showing off his beautiful $100m mansion in Jamaica. The tropical oasis is stunning in photos and you can see where he got his inspiration from for Major Lazer and more projects.
While on horseback, he states it was purchased for his 18 children. Yes, I too am just learning he has 18 children. Very Bob Marley of him. Diplo believes this house and creative space is the greatest project he has ever worked on. The island of Jamaica has given him so much inspiration for dancehall and beyond.
He mentions how they rescued horses and planted sweet potatoes and pineapples. The private jungle home has served as a refuge for him and he hopes it can continue to inspire other artists. Architectural Digest dived into the home and I highly recommend watching the video below.
Diplo’s undertook the ambitious project by first buying 50 acres of land. Diplo assembled an inspired team of artists to help bring his vision to life over the next 10 years. The years of work have resulted in an indoor-outdoor concrete villa clinging to the lush hillside. Bridges, trellises, and breezeways connect the space, allowing the jungle to weave into the home as if one. He had this to say:

Following his widely supported release ‘Alone’ on Knee Deep in Sound, it was a meeting with another of dance music’s A-list names that changed the course of Cristoph’s future, when Eric Prydz, impressed by the Geordie’s crisp productions and acclaimed EP ‘8-track’, offered him a spot on his new ‘Pryda Presents’ label. Releases such as ‘Feel’ and ‘EPOCH’ saw Cristoph quickly become a giant in the world of progressive house.

Afrojack, Pitbull and Ne-Yo Are Reuniting for New Music 13 Years After "Give Me Everything"

Picture this with a Kodak: Afrojack, Pitbull and Ne-Yo are reuniting over a decade after releasing "Give Me Everything."
Back in 2011, Mr. Worldwide seduced us all to the dancefloor with the smash hip-house hit, which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 chart at the time and appeared on his fan-favorite Planet Pit album. The track, which features Ne-Yo's buttery vocals and Afrojack's signature "Dirty Dutch" production, ultimately grew into a generational dance anthem.
13 years after their iconic collaboration dominated the airwaves, Afrojack, Pitbull and Ne-Yo are back to transport us to a time when hashtags were just becoming a thing and everyone was still reeling from the end of the Harry Potter film series. The trio has shared a preview of their new single, "2 The Moon."
A planetary call to hedonistic nights with a partner, "2 The Moon" recaptures the feverish energy and head-over-heels rapture of its predecessor, which joined Spotify's elusive billion-streams club in early-2024. The track is scheduled to hit streaming platforms on Friday, June 7th.
