Haywyre returns to Monstercat for first original single after a two year hiatus – “White Lie”

Returning with his first release in two years, Martin Vogt, better known in the space as Haywyre, recently delivered his latest Monstercat single “White Lie”. Making a welcome return to the marquee electronic imprint after 7 years, “White Lie” is a buoyant, introspective production that sets the stage for a series of new releases fans can expect from Haywyre in the year ahead.
Building with an expansive, brooding soundscape and striking vocals, the arrangement of “White Lie” leads into a driving, future-funk fueled breakdown. Featuring Haywyre’s diverse production palette, he fuses an unexpected blend of synths, strings, piano, bass and vocal chops with finesse for his return to Monstercat.
On the new release, Haywyre shares, “I’m proud to finally get my first track in two years into the world. Especially one like ‘White Lie’, which I feel really shows a glimpse into where the Haywyre project is going.”
Midwest US based Haywyre fuses his foundation classical and jazz piano training with an affinity for 21st century electronic production. With a history in live music preceding his foray into electronic, he delivers a dynamic, hybrid performance style to the stage.  Haywyre has brought his future funk and melodic glitch-hop inspired sound to the stages alongside top acts of the likes of Griz, Zedd and Gramatik. Having done official remixes for major pop acts like Charlie Puth, in 2021 he received a GRAMMY nomination in the category of Best Remixed Recording for his remix of “Young & Alive” (Bazzi vs. Haywyre Remix).

His songs have a laid-back yet adventurous feel, drawing from dubstep and glitch-hop while we simultaneously hear his background in funk, classical, jazz and house music perpetually shine through. After establishing his sound with early self-released albums such as 2010’s Of Mellows and Revelations, Haywyre produced more intense, complex works like 2016’s ‘Two Fold, Pt. 2’ (Monstercat), with nearly 50 million streams on Spotify alone, later switching to a futuristic disco/funk hybrid with 2018’s Panorama: Discover.

Thank You SLUKA! There’s Finally a Song About ‘Christmas Tamales!’ [Video]

Christopher Sluka is usually known for his serious, highly technical, expertly composed orchestral work with a hint of synth, but his newest effort is anything but serious. Unless you’re from Mexico or the American Southwest, that is. Those of us living anywhere from Colorado to Baja California know just how important tamales are year-round, not to mention Christmas. Now, “Christmas Tamales” is the anthem to the corn-based parcels we always needed for the season, thanks to Sluka and his band, the aptly named SLUKA.
The lore of the tamale is vast and varied, its origins dating back millennia to Mesoamerican cultures but their current form, which inspired Sluka’s rousing Christmas ode, are still very much a staple wherever one might find a large Hispanic culture. Made of a corn masa base and wrapped usually in corn husks (in Southern Mexican and Central American areas, banana leaves are also a possible choice), they vary in terms of their flavor and filling. Traditional savory choices are usually chicken or pork with some sort of mole (sauce), but there are veggie green chile varieties as well as loads of sweet options with white corn and filled with raisins, pineapples of mangoes.
In Southern California where Sluka likely discovered the traditional pocket food, tamales are available all year long at restaurants, taco trucks and even at many places of business, where industrious home cooks will sell them to hungry workers. These homemade, fresh tamales are considered the best ones among SoCal residents in the know; until Christmas, of course, when loads of abuelas from all different regions and will all different recipes get out their big pots and start to make them for family and friends. The Christmas tamale-giving season usually starts right after Thanksgiving (with delicious turkey tamales making an appearance, of course) and lasts through the New Year. Anyone lucky to be a family member, friend or neighbor to someone who makes tamales knows truly how magical they are, and it’s clear this is the type of tamale about which Sluka and his band are singing their praises.
The song itself is much more lighthearted and fun than SLUKA’s usual work, which tends to be dense, emotive and complex. Clearly intended at least partially for kids, “Christmas Tamales” is joyful song, easy to sing along to with pretty simple lyrics, almost like a Christmas Carol. It’s still got that SLUKA flare, however, with loads of warm, ambient sound design and synth supporting the well-composed and produced music. Sluka’s vocals themselves are booming and jovial with just a touch of cheek, sort of like Jack Black’s in Tenacious D songs. A perfect carol to everyone’s favorite Christmas food in Mexico and the American Southwest.
Sluka and his team also created an equally fun and family-forward animated video for “Christmas Tamales” using AI made by SLUKA bass player, Anna Eppink. The video is a wild ride through a Christmas wonderland where yetis shop for and prepare the Christmas tamales. Tamales also dance in the sky as the band play the song. Whimsical, festive and kind of trippy, it’s what one would expect if SLUKA did a Christmas video.
While there are likely other songs about the Christmas tamale tradition, this one done with such gusto and fun means “Christmas Tamales” could be an instant classic. With nearly 200k views on the YouTube video already and 30k streams on Spotify, it’s well on its way to becoming a household holiday song and it’s a great way to tease SLUKA’s upcoming album.

Your EDM Q&A: S.P.Y on His recent XOYO Residency, Three Years of DRKMTTR and His Advice for Producers

It might have come as a surprise when it was announced that S.P.Y, the elusive DJ, producer and now label boss of DARKMTTR Records, would be taking over the legendary XOYO in London for the whole of November. The Brasil-born mega DJ generally only picks the gigs he’s really excited about and, with his release schedule, both label and personal, many fans might wonder how S.P.Y could make time for four Fridays. Turns out it was a simple decision for him.
With the well-oiled machine that is Weird Science Promotions running most D&B gigs at XOYO (they’ve also got the likes of Grooverider, Andy C and the whole Kool FM lineup slotted for December and early 2024), and a ready-made lineup at his disposal, the first three gigs have gone off without a hitch and the series closer, taking place this Friday, promises to be a great sendoff for S.P.Y and company. The likes of Calyx, MC GQ, Etherwood, Lowqui, IAMDOOMED, Alley Cat, Voltage, Kyrist and Flava D on the roster, every week was as stunning and vibey as the last, with a super blowout for the last date (read on to find how who the special guest will be tonight).
We don’t want to yammer on too much about the other stuff we chat about, because S.P.Y gave loads of excellent answers, but suffice it to say if you were looking for tips and tricks from a master producer as well as how he does his A&R, this is the article for you. Per his name, S.P.Y usually keeps his secrets close so YEDM feels very lucky he was so open in this article and we appreciate his taking the time. Now read on and enjoy spying on S.P.Y.
As a producer who seems to live in the lab and who only does the gigs you really enjoy, what made you decide to do a residency at XOYO?
XOYO is such a legendary club, so I felt quite honored to be asked to host a residency there. It’s an amazing opportunity to curate my own lineup and share with people, the DJs and producers that I really admire and respect. Funnily enough, it’s actually got me spending even more time in the studio as I’ve been busy finalizing new tracks to play at the residency. I know that everyone who’s coming down to XOYO are there because they like my sound, so it’s really rewarding to be able to drop some exclusive new tracks and mixes just for them.
We’re just about halfway through the November dates (at time of interview); what have been some of your observations about the gigs? What are you looking forward to in the upcoming gigs?
I can’t believe we’re already halfway through! The crowd at the first two nights has been absolutely incredible. They’ve been so up for anything and have really been vibing to all of the DJs, it’s such a great feeling to get to play to such a responsive crowd. It’s also been great to get to see the other DJs play. Usually I’m so busy touring that I’m in and out and onto the next show. For each night of the residency I’ve been there from start to finish and have got to enjoy everyone’s sets and really make the most of the night. Each night of the residency has a totally different lineup with a different sound, so I’m looking forward to dropping some more dubs at the next two nights. I’m also really looking forward to going back to back with Bladerunner and Flava D, that will be special!
How did you pick the lineups for each week? How did you decide to work with Lowqui as your MC?
While it seems like it would be really easy to curate a lineup, it was actually really difficult as there were so many people that I wanted to book. I was lucky that the final lineup had everyone that I really wanted and each night has come together nicely. I wanted to make each night unique, so the four lineups reflect that. I listen to a really wide variety of drum and bass so I felt it was important to cover all the different sounds that I enjoy.
I really like working with Lowqui, he’s got a great vibe as an MC, he’s a mad hype man and he always interacts well with the crowd. It’s also been great to work with some other MCs during the residency too, like Inja, Stamina and SP:MC, they each have such a unique style and add a different flavor to my set.

Coming off XOYO for a bit, you’re on year three of your DARKMTTR label and it seems curation is very important to you, and that you’re not looking for big names to release but it’s more about the sound. How would you characterise the sound of vibe you generally go for? Is it only you on A&R, or have you brought in some help?
The sound of DARKMTTR is really varied. The label releases everything from dark and minimal, to moody and musical, although I feel like all of the releases seem to have a deep, heavy undertone to them, even the more atmospheric tracks. I always knew that when I started a label I didn’t want it to be pigeonholed into just one sub-genre so I really wanted it to reflect my taste in music. It is only me doing the A&R for the label and I really enjoy doing it. I use a DJ-based approach to A&R and the first thing I ask myself when selecting a track is, would I play this in my sets? Every track that I’ve signed to the label is one that I would – and do – play myself. I’ve always wanted to do A&R and it’s one of my favorite parts of running a label. It’s really rewarding to discover new music and help producers work up their tracks so they’re ready to release.
What are some things you’ve learned over the first three years of DARKMTTR about running a label? How has it measured up to your expectations when you started it?
I’d wanted to start a label for years and I always knew it was going to be a lot of work but nothing really prepares you for the day to day reality of running a label. It’s been a really interesting experience seeing the music industry from a label perspective. I’d only ever seen it from the artist side so it’s been quite a learning curve to see what’s involved in getting a release out there. Scheduling, budgeting and A&R, they’re all things that you aren’t responsible for as an artist and may not fully understand, but they’re vital when running a label. I’m grateful that I have a solid team around me who share the vision of the label. It’s so rewarding seeing the label grow, I can’t believe we’ve had 21 releases already!
How do you decide which releases of your own will go on DARKMTTR and which you will shop other labels? Is that a difficult decision?
It is difficult. I release most of my music on DARKMTTR, but sometimes due to scheduling I will look for other labels to release my music. If I released everything I have on DARKMTTR there would be no room in the schedule for the other artists!
Are there any upcoming releases that tie in with the XOYO residency that you can talk about? Did the release schedule inform your decision to do the residency?
The second night of the residency was actually the release day for “Take Me Up,” my new collaboration with IAMDOOMED. IAMDOOMED played at XOYO the same night and it was like an unofficial release party. It was amazing to play the track with him there and to see the crowd reaction. The release schedule didn’t inform my decision to do the residency, but it was great that IAMDOOMED could play on the same day.
Talking a bit about style and sound, in the last few years you’ve been doing a lot of deep and atmospheric stuff but not necessarily melodic. What makes you inspired to change things up and how do you come up with your more unique sounds?
Producing music is such an organic, creative experience for me. I can’t force a vibe or make myself produce a certain type of sound. My music is an expression of how I’m feeling emotionally at the time, or what’s going on in my life. Depending on what I’m feeling inspired by I can produce something totally different to other things I’ve been producing lately. I spend a lot of time working on sound design which seems to give me some quite unique sounds. I also have a lot of analog and modular equipment in my studio and I try not to be too technical with it. Late nights in the studio, a bit of sleep deprivation and a lot of experimentation seem to combine to produce some really interesting sounds. Basically I just have fun with it and see what I can create!
Having been in the game for a while, how is it to create tracks with current methods versus 15 years ago? Do you use a combination of techniques? What sort of softwares or programmers do you use?
To be honest, I haven’t really changed the way I produce. My sound has definitely evolved over the years, and I try to keep my production relevant sonically, but my techniques really haven’t changed that much. One thing that I’ve definitely changed over the past few years is my sampling. I used to sample a lot for all of my tracks, however now I create all of the sounds myself. Learning more about sound design has opened up a whole new realm creatively for me and it’s really satisfying being able to use my own sounds. I’ve been enjoying sound design so much that I’ve even started releasing my own sample packs.
I listen to a really wide range of electronic music and recreate some of the techniques from other genres with my own twist. I’ve been using Abelton Live since version five and I’m really loyal to it, it’s a brilliant production tool. I also use a Solid State Logic (SSL) desk for summing my tracks in analog, which creates a really nice warm texture for my tracks and of course I listen to everything through my PMC speakers.
Is there anything else you have coming up in releases or gigs that we didn’t mention?
We have a release coming up on DARKMTTR in December; it’s a double release: a collaboration I’ve done with DJ Limited and another of his tracks which has an amazing vocal. I’m going to be dropping the track at XOYO so I’m really looking forward to seeing what the crowd think! Rolling into 2024 we have a bunch of new releases and collaborations lined up for DARKMTTR, but I have to keep everything under wraps for now. Keep your eyes on S.P.Y and DARKMTTR socials to see what we’ve got going on.
Any advice for new producers out there?
I think the main piece of advice I could give is to never stop learning. Keep improving your sound and your production, keep learning new techniques and watch as many tutorials as you can. Also, I think it’s quite easy to give up if you’ve submitted a few tracks to labels and haven’t had anything picked up. Most of the time, it’s just that those particular tracks aren’t right for that particular label, or maybe you just need a bit more experience, or you need to refine your sound. Don’t give up, keep producing and keep sending in those demos! One trick I can share is to A and B the track you’re working on with a similar track that has been released to see if you’re on the right track sonically.
S.P.Y’s last XOYO set will be tonight, November 24 at XOYO. For clips and info, check S.P.Y’s socials or Weird Science Promotions’ Instagram. For upcoming DARKMTTR releases and to hear S.P.Y’s latest track with IAMDOOMED mentioned in this article, click here.

Listen to R3HAB’s hot new remix of ‘Habaytak’, featuring Ghizlane Melih

Multi-platinum producer, and DJ, R3HAB has just unleashed a new remix of Acid Arab’s infectiously exciting track, ‘Habaytak’. For the last fifteen years, the musician, Fadil El Ghoul, better known by the R3HAB moniker, has remixed the likes of Rihanna, Drake, Taylor Swift, and Calvin Harris, put out original tracks with huge collabs, and has dominated the mainstream whilst staying true to his Dutch-Moroccan heritage. Out now via [PIAS] Électronique, R3HAB gave the Eastern-inspired sound of the original track, featuring Ghizlane Melih’s vocals, a darker, faster-paced twist. Watch the freshly released Jean-Charles Charavin-directed video: 
Trailblazing through the original with his vision but never forgetting to intensify Acid Arab’s existing builds and breaks, R3HAB heightens the vocal track to spine-tingling levels. Incorporating explicit House elements and throbbing electronic bass, this club banger exaggerates the source material’s production whilst keeping Ghizlane Melih’s gorgeous vocals in the spotlight. In doing so, he not only injects the beats with his unique brand of thumping House, but he also pays homage to the Morrocan diva’s heritage and influences. Listen to both the original and the new remix below: 
The two producers had this to say about their collab, R3HAB: “I’ve been a fan of Acid Arab’s work for a long time now, so I was excited when they reached out. I had a lot of fun remixing ‘Habaytak’, it’s always a good challenge to infuse my sound into different genres and musical cultures. I loved the experience and we’re excited to finally share it with the world!”. Acid Arab: “This mix of R3HAB’s more mainstream sound with our Arabic-inspired electronic music has spawned a unique and potentially massive track. We’re honoured that R3HAB agreed to add his special touch and individual vibe to our track. We’re proud to see more musical boundaries fall.”

Your EDM Premiere: Billain Offers a Different Perspective With ‘Different Eyes’ [Vision]

By now, everyone in both the D&B and bass worlds knows that when Billain is about to drop a new release, it’s going to be a game-changer. Now with his last releases being in February, the scene is more than ready for a new joint from the Bosnia-based mega-producer. Or so they think. Different Eyes, the upcoming EP due out this Friday, November 17 on Vision, is once again going to lock Billain into the pinnacle of creativity in bass music.
Having already teased the title track two weeks ago, fans might assume Different Eyes will be another atmospheric concept EP, similar to 2022’s Lands Unbreached or 2019’s Nomad’s Revenge. Being that Billain has been so focused on film production with his multi-award winning short Fugitive and scoring said film as well as new A/V projects, it wouldn’t be too farfetched of an assumption. It would, however, be wrong. The fast, aggressive, yet painfully emotive D&B styles that caused both industry and fans to become infatuated with the dizzying levels of production this artist can attain is on Different Eyes in full force.
While almost every track on this EP can easily unalive any dancefloor, it’s important to note that Different Eyes is still a concept album and a journey, and it should be listened to as such at least once. It starts with the atmospheric, largely beatless wonder of an intro track, “It’s First Dream.” This lullaby brings the listener back into a world that only Billain fully knows: one of heavy atmos, cyberpunk dreamscapes and endless lands made of sound and code. It’s actually kind of him to lull the listener into this state, because the next tracks hit so damned hard, we nee a buffer.
What follows in the next five tracks is a sequence of ever faster and crunchier bass hurricanes, reflecting chaos and anger and tightly-reigned skill all at once. Our YEDM premiere is the second track, “Baka,” which presumably taken from the anime slang for “crazy” or “foolish,” and it certainly has the wild chaos of an anime fight scene. Easily the heaviest and most chaotic track on the EP, “Baka” drops the listener into the narrative of Different Eyes like a 3-meter vert ramp and doesn’t let go until it’s damn well ready. As intense and chaotic as it sounds, “Baka” was likely the most tightly produced track on the album, simply by virtue of how chaotic it is. It’s always the maddest syncopation that takes the most programming, and it might also be a little nod to jazz fusion. Only the best DJs will be able to mix this track, and it’s likely that’s the way Billain wanted it.
Going through the journey of the rest of the EP with “Kinetic,” “Uncanny Valley,” “FUCK Y00” and “Void Me,” the intensity and speed of the work only increases, but unlike “Baka,” they all have a trackable drum & bass beat. The EP ends up feeling like exploring a wild new planet in some futuristic inner space hellscape, from the prep of “Different Eyes” to the bumpy, aggressive culture shock of “Baka” to finding one’s stride in the “Uncanny Valley” to being over it already with “FUCK Y00” to the last ride of the ego-destroying ride of “Void Me.” “Different Eyes” is the victory lap, a reward for beating the game and making it through this fever dream of an EP.
As a psycho-thriller in sonic form, Different Eyes is a reflection of doing hard inner work. It’s chaos and anger and confusion and a hurricane of emotions, but the title track is the goal: meant to be the new perspective once one has let all that beautiful pain go. Whether you are working on something personally or just unthinkingly follow the arc of this EP, you will come to the end of this masterpiece seeing the world with “Different Eyes.”
Different Eyes drops tomorrow, November 17 on Vision. Click here to pre-order or pre-save.

barnacle boi Releases Thumping ‘Introspect’ EP

Ian Oliver, known as barnacle boi, has not only carved a niche for himself at prominent music festivals this year, like Imagine Fest, Wakaan Fest, Elements Fest, and Sound Haven, but also made a notable double appearance at Red Rocks in late 2022. Revered for his deeply emotional, bass-centric, and evocative trap compositions, as well as for his collaborations with icons such as Bones (TeamSESH), Holly Stell, and Madi Larson, barnacle boi’s star is on the rise. Bolstered by support from huge names like Alice Glass and Finn Wolfhard of “Stranger Things”, he draws from the nostalgic chords of 90’s/2000’s anthems, infusing them with his groundbreaking innovations.
Now, he’s back with his highly anticipated ‘Introspect’ EP – making his label debut on Vibe Digital. The result is truly spectacular, as barnacle boi creates a thrilling ride from start to finish on this six track EP. The title track sets the tone, making a thunderous entrance while the subsequent song “Love Hotel” ushers in a more contemplative, downtempo element beautifully executed.
“In The Dark” encompasses notes of festival trap mixed seamlessly with cinematic textures while “U Were Everything 2 Me” takes us even further down the rabbit hole into the sonic bliss curated by barnacle boi. “Stubborn” offers a mesmerizing vibe while “Sorry” caps off the EP with a darker, UK garage sound that yet again shows just how sonically eclectic barnacle boi is.

Ren Zukii Drops Thunderous Single “10 Hour Shower” via Liquid Stranger’s Wakaan’s Imprint

Ren Zukii is the moniker of 26 year old West Australian experimental bass music producer Rene Snow – who’s truly carving her own lane in this scene. Her music fits somewhere in between chaotic and emotionally impactful, with unhinged creativity guiding her ever step of the way.
Now, she’s back with a new single “10 Hour Shower” via Liquid Stranger’s Wakaan imprint and the single lives up to the hype. Packed with thunderous bass chords and an electrifying arrangement, Zukii turns this into a colossal main stage banger.
“I wrote this track in a tropical thunderstorm in Sumatra, Indonesia. It rained for 10 hours straight while I was there on a surfing trip, so that’s where the title of the track comes from. I was feeling super inspired to write music while in Indonesia, as I used to live there when I was 16, teaching English in a local village.” – Ren Zukii

Beaty and Beats for Love: Meet the DJ Who’s All Things Rave in Czechia and Slovakia

Most American ravers know very little about the scene in the former Eastern Bloc, aside perhaps from Berghain and the festivals in Croatia. Drum & bass denizens would likely know about Let It Roll out of Prague and maybe that Czechia is a hub of modern neurofunk, but may not know how big the scene actually is in Czechia and Slovakia. In fact, it’s quite widespread, with the popular imagination festival, loads of clubs and some of the most popular producers coming out of everywhere from Dresden to Russia. Beats for Love, a festival based in Ostrava, Czechia on the Polish border, seems to have been one of the most overlooked by North American punters while simultaneously becoming one of the biggest festivals on the planet. It’s time said punters take notice.
With festival fans beginning work on planning their summers around now, it’s a good time to look up Beats for Love. Conceived in 2014 by festival director Kamil Rudolf as a way to bring big rave names to Central Europe for reasonable prices, B4L’s tenth anniversary is set for early July, 2024. It’s a full week-long festival set in an old ironworks with cool, dystopian vibes, in an urban and easily accessible area and features huge lineups, with 2023’s festival hosting nearly 500 artists. B4L makes sure they cover all genres as well, featuring everyone from Deadmau5 and Tiësto to A.M.C and the Eatbrain League. There are also conference-style forums during the week, daytime carnival activities and a fireworks display at the end that rivals EDC. It’s no wonder it’s now the biggest festival in Central Europe, with nearly a quarter of a million visitors at the 2023 fest.
With her career born out of the burgeoning Czech and Slovak rave scenes of the late 90s and early 00s, DJ Beaty has become a fan favorite both in her hometown of Ostrava and throughout Europe. Her high-energy house, techno and drum & bass sets are usually a mustn’t miss for those in the know, and she dances just as hard as anyone on the floor. Now working on her all-female event series Proppa Rave with childhood bestie and Dnbwear bosslady Mila207, Beaty’s also the boots-on-the-ground coordinator and marketing manager for Beats for Love. Getting to know her and her positive vibes is also getting to know B4L, so with the 2024 season approaching, YEDM decided to chat with beaty and get to know them both.
How did you get involved with music?
For the Americans who are just now hearing about it, can you give us a little history on Beats for Love?
Beats for Love is an electronic dance music festival held at the heart of the Industrial National Monument in Ostrava (an actual UNESCO World Heritage Site). It’s surrounded by the ironworks scenery of the Lower Vítkovice area, so it’s got a very different vibe. This year we will celebrate the tenth anniversary of the festival and because we’re so well-established now, we’ve been able to fill it with plenty of outstanding music on 15+ stages headlining by the biggest names all over the world, not to mention a rich accompanying program and loads of other activities (including fun for kids during the day) for four days. This creates a really unique atmosphere full of fun and enjoyment!
What was the idea behind the festival and how have you seen it grow or change over the years?
The original idea was to organize an event in an industrial space and the original idea was to show electronic music to as many people as possible, which for us meant “a lot of music for little money.” Of course, over time, the festival got bigger, and with that bigger names are added, and with that came an increase in prices, but we are still one of the cheapest festivals year in and year out in terms of the price/performance ratio so we feel our original mission still stands.
How have you been able to get such huge talent to come to the festival each year?
We’re a team here at B4L so I think the best person to answer this is George Ramík, our festival booking manager:
The festival is expanding year by year, not only in terms of production but also the composition of the program. Every year we manage to book a better lineup and this is also connected with the fact that the festival wants to grow.  In order for the festival to be better, we need to put more resources into the line-up and we strive to bring people a better program every year. 
I think the reason why big headliners like to come back to us and want to play here is the unique environment of the old factory, which is not found anywhere else in the world. The main reason, in my opinion, is because of our artist care. We go above and beyond with high-quality artist care and first-class facilities for the whole week. Agents and managers visit our festival to see what Beats for Love is all about and they received first-class service too, which they greatly appreciate. I also think it’s our curated image. Our festival has a face and we keep our relationships strong. Artists and their agents already know us from the communication before the festival and these are the same people they will meet at the venue. We are not just a company, but a team and a family.  The same people have been working together on this festival for a long time, so the artists know exactly who they are and they know they can always count on us to take care of them and present a great festival.
Beaty @ B4L 2023, filmed by DnBPortal For you personally, how does the festival tie in with your own music career?
For me this event is always the highlight of the year, not only because I work on it the whole year but it is one of the biggest crowds I get to play to. It also helps that it is in my hood, I get to meet all my DJ, producer and industry friends in one place and I don’t even have to travel! I feel so happy to be involved with one of the most important rave events of the year. 
Where would you like to see the festival go in the future?*
*I asked our head of marketing, Mathiass O´Zana, to weigh in on this one:
Our goal is to be at the level of such giants as Tomorrowland or Glastonbury, which are known all over the world. In the meantime, the most important thing for us is that the festival still has so many great and satisfied fans, because it is not possible without them and mainly we are doing it for them! 
How has it been trying to manage the festival as well as doing your own gigs?
I´m working for Beats for Love as a marketing manager so during the week I’m going to work normally and during the weekends I’m doing shows. Sometimes it is challenging to be at “work” all the time, but when it is your passion and you love what you do, it just doesn’t feel like you are at work.
What is your favorite part of touring and playing so many gigs?
I love to visit new places and meet new people. I’m doing one or two gigs during the week so it’s quite tiring sometimes with the distances to venues are very long. After a weekend full of gigs I’m really tired but as I said, I love what I do so it also gives me a lot of energy. 
What’s your goal as a musician?
At the moment it’s to continue what I’m doing and try to do my best as a DJ. My goal this year is to take my DJ skills to the next level, which will liven up my performance so mainly I’m focusing on DJing right now. Also I would like to start my own production but at the moment I’m fully busy with my family, job and projects so at the moment I’ve got a pretty full plate. 
Any upcoming projects for you or teasers for next year’s B4L?
This year Beats for Love will celebrate our tenth anniversary, so the preparations are in full swing. We have so many upgrades to the different areas and visuals to ensure the best possible music experience for our #peopleoflove! Last year at the festival we started with the new project “Talking Beats” which is a conference and a meeting of the organizational team with the people at the festival, which was a great success. This year we would like to increase it, extend it to more days, invite interesting guests again and discuss topics related to electronic music, mental health and other interesting topics that are connected to music and the festival in general.

Jauz Drops Incredible Remix of deadmau5 Classic “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff”

There’s no question that deadmau5 is one of the most influential artists in dance music over the past 20 years. If you’re like me, a song like “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff” is one of the touchstones of electronic dance music. Despite being almost a decade old, “Ghosts ‘n’ Stuff” is still one of the most recognizable and iconic songs in the genre. Despite the prevalence of the original track, it only got a couple of marginal remixes. Now, 15 years later, the track gets perhaps its finest remix to date, courtesy of Jauz.
Jauz’s remix maintains the opening synth line and melody. He also retains Rob Swire’s classic vocal topline. However, Jauz’s version turns the synth melody into strings to give it a more dramatic feel. Jauz throws in a wicked synth loop before the drop incorporates the original vocal and synth melody. Jauz manages to take a classic EDM tune and spin it into a modern powerhouse.
“Making a remix for a song as revered and respected as ‘Ghosts n’ Stuff’ is honestly almost an impossible task,” says Jauz. “It was intimidating and humbling, to say the least. But it was also a great exercise to remind myself how to stop putting pressure and expectation on myself, and just make whatever comes out naturally. I made eight different versions of this remix and this is the only one that really felt like ‘me.’ Thanks to Joel and the team for letting me remix one of the greatest electronic records of all time.  It was an honor and such a cool experience”

Hardwell & AFROJACK Team Up For Massive New Collab “Push It”

It’s been a great week for collabs between legendary Dutch producers. Hardwell and AFROJACK just dropped their third official collab, “Push It” featuring MERYLL. The duo debuted the track during Hardwell’s Tomorrowland set earlier this summer and it sure seems like it’s going to become a staple in both DJs’ sets.
“Push It” is keeping with all of Hardwell’s previous recent releases, advancing his big room techno sound. The track opens with a psy-trance beat layered over the vocal “Push it, pull it, twist, I’ve got it.” After that it goes to a windy synth breakdown that is trademark AFROJACK. The synth lead starts mixing with the percussion before going into another massive drop combining the bassline and synth melody.
“I’m excited to finally be releasing another song with Hardwell after all these years.” AFROJACK says. “The people loved it at Tomorrowland and I’m happy for people around the world to be able to hear it now.”
“I’m excited we’re finally dropping this collaboration; it’s been a long time in the making.” Hardwell adds. “For years, AFROJACK and I kept bumping into each other and talking up the idea of getting back in the studio together, so I’m glad that time has now arrived and this new collab is getting its release date. We first premiered it at Tomorrowland in the summer, and I recently aired it on my relaunched radio show, Hardwell On Air; now I’m looking forward to including it in my sets in the coming years.”

Tiësto & R3HAB Join Forces For Massive Festival Anthem “Run Free (Countdown)”

Tiësto and R3HAB, two of the Netherlands’ biggest stars, have finally come together for their first official collab, “Run Free (Countdown)”. Tiësto has been using this track as the opener in his sets for months, including at EDC Las Vegas and Tomorrowland. While the two artists have previously remixed each other, this is the first proper collab between the two Dutch legends.
The track opens with some blocky synths fading up into the foreground along a siren and the instantly recognizable countdown from 10. Are you ready!!??? The synths and the beat take over, again, if you’ve seen either of these artists over the past six months, you’ll definitely recognize this tune. It all repeats again for a second, even heavier drop. It certainly feels like the bassline rolls even thicker the second time around.
“R3HAB and I have been waiting eagerly to share ‘Run Free (Countdown).’” Tiësto says. “We’ve seen the energy it ignites in our live sets all summer, and now, we’re thrilled to finally share it with the world. This track encapsulates freedom and boundless energy, a true anthem for Mainstage lovers.”
“Tiësto defines the global club culture, and I’m excited to finally join forces.” R3HAB adds. “I shared the idea of ‘Run Free (Countdown)’ with him early this year, and he loved it. We’ve played it over 50 times on iconic stages, including Tomorrowland, Ultra, EDC, and Creamfields, honing the production to its final form. The countdown call-to-action and drop energy combo is special. This is my biggest 2023 club record, and fans have been going wild. I’m hyped to finally share it with the world.” – R3HAB
