Two of British dance music’s most acclaimed and legendary artists are coming together for one sensational night at TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre.
 
Electronic music pioneers Faithless and Orbital both head to the Yorkshire coast on Saturday August 2 for an unmissable show in front of 8,000 fans.
 
Orbital – aka brothers Phil and Paul Hartnoll – will open the night at Scarborough OAT before headliners Faithless take to the stage at the UK’s biggest open-air concert arena.
 
Almost 30 years on from the release of their critically acclaimed debut album, Reverence, Faithless have established themselves as one of the most influential electronic acts of the 21st century.
 
They continue to prove it is possible to achieve both critical and commercial success while delivering boundary-pushing dance music with feeling and integrity.
 
Faithless have sold more than 20 million albums, including 17 Top 40 singles, six Top 10 albums (three at Number One), and amassing more than a billion combined streams to date.
 
Their UK Top 10 singles include such anthems as Salva Mea, We Come1, One Step Too Far, Mass Destruction, Insomnia and God Is A DJ,
 
The band’s cultural significance is unparalleled – leading the charge of dance acts cutting through on a global level and showing electronic music deserves its place on the main stages. Last year’s return to the live arena, after eight years away, saw sold-out shows across Europe.
 
Orbital became one of the biggest names in music during the mid-1990s by reinventing the notion of what a dance act could do live, turning multitudes of rock fans on to the limitless pleasures of electronic music.
 
They have crafted a vast catalogue of ambitious yet accessible music, informed by a wide range of genres such as ambient, electro, punk and film scores.
 
Since breaking through with their landmark 1990 Top 20 hit Chime, Orbital have released a string of critically praised albums – including the 1993 landmark Orbital 2 and 1996’s In Sides.
 
Their 10th studio album, 2023’s Optical Delusion, included fabulous, furious lead single Dirty Rat, a collaboration with Sleaford Mods.

Faithless and Orbital join Basement Jaxx, Pendulum, Craig David, Rag’n’Bone Man, Snow Patrol, Judas Priest, Blossoms, Shed Seven, Texas, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, The Corrs, Gary Barlow and The Script among the artists confirmed for TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre 2025.

Solidifying his reputation as a production mastermind, Claptone unveils a phenomenal house flip of Chicane’s ‘Saltwater’. In celebration of the track’s 25th anniversary, the German DJ and producer transforms Chicane’s biggest hit into an intoxicating, club-ready take on the trance classic. It sets the stage for a yearlong series of diverse, genre-blending remixes.

Released in 1999, Chicane’s ‘Saltwater’ is hailed as one of the most defining tracks of the late ‘90s trance scene. It is built around a haunting vocal sample from Clannad’s ‘Theme from Harry’s Game’. The track blends ethereal Celtic elements with euphoric synths and driving rhythms for a captivating sonic soundscape. ‘Saltwater’ achieved global success, charting across Europe and becoming an Ibiza anthem. It also cemented Chicane’s reputation as a pioneer of atmospheric electronic music. The track has since left an enduring legacy. It influenced the next generation of producers and serving as a timeless reminder of the emotive power of trance music.

Claptone now breathes new life into the beloved classic. It underscores his unparalleled talent for reimagining timeless records across genres. Infused with his signature groove, the house aficionado’s remix retains the haunting beauty of the iconic trance anthem while weaving in crisp percussion, Balearic undertones and a deep, rolling bassline, creating a fresh yet nostalgic interpretation that serves as a testament to the track’s ability to stand the test of time.

‘Saltwater’ is out today via Armada Music.

KSHMR has sent fans into a frenzy with a cryptic Instagram story urging them to follow The Cataracs, adding, “Because you never know, something might be coming.” The teaser has sparked speculation about a potential reunion or collaboration, raising the question: Is KSHMR returning to where it all began?
The Cataracs: Where It All Started
Before he became one of the most recognized names in EDM, KSHMR, born Niles Hollowell-Dhar, was one-half of The Cataracs, a California-based duo he formed with David Singer-Vine in 2003. The two met in high school and quickly gained recognition with their fusion of electronic, hip-hop, and pop sounds.
The Cataracs found mainstream success with “Like a G6,” a global hit in collaboration with Far East Movement and Dev, as well as “Bass Down Low,” which further cemented their status in the pop-electronic scene. Their production prowess extended beyond their own music, crafting beats for artists like Snoop Dogg and Selena Gomez. However, in 2012, Singer-Vine left the duo, leaving Hollowell-Dhar to continue the project solo.
The Birth of KSHMR: A New Era
In 2014, Hollowell-Dhar made the bold decision to step away from The Cataracs and reinvent himself as KSHMR, diving deep into the world of big room and electro house. His debut tracks like “Megalodon” and “Karate” showcased a harder, festival-ready sound, marking a stark departure from the radio-friendly beats of The Cataracs.
As KSHMR, he quickly became a respected figure in the dance music industry, known for his cinematic compositions, Indian-inspired melodies, and high-energy festival anthems. Collaborations with Tiësto (“Secrets”) and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike (“Opa”) solidified his reputation as a powerhouse producer.
Could a Reunion Be on the Horizon?
With KSHMR’s Instagram tease, longtime fans are now wondering if he’s looking to revisit his roots. The Cataracs’ official pages have been largely inactive in recent years, making this sudden call to action even more intriguing. Could we see a revival of their signature sound? Or is this a fresh take on their past collaborations with a modern twist?
While no official details have been revealed, the mere suggestion of new activity around The Cataracs is enough to get fans excited. Whether it’s a full-fledged reunion, a special project, or simply a nostalgic nod to his past, KSHMR has certainly set the rumor mill spinning.
One thing is for sure—something is coming. And if history is any indication, it’s bound to be big! Follow us and we keep a close eye on developments to come!

Heralded as the world’s most international house and techno festival brand, ULTRA Worldwide’s esteemed underground series RESISTANCE stands at the forefront of innovation in the global underground music scene, bringing its visionary programming to more than 35 cities across all six inhabited continents—spanning stadium stages, international tours, and award-winning residencies.
Now, RESISTANCE announces its triumphant return to the White Isle this summer for RESISTANCE Ibiza 2025, reclaiming its status as a defining force in Ibiza nightlife with a nine-week residency at the world-famous Amnesia Ibiza, which remains as a haven for those who seek authentic clubbing.
Running every Wednesday from July 23 through September 17, 2025, RESISTANCE Ibiza 2025 will be anchored by Season Residents Adam Beyer and ARTBAT, who will deliver weekly headlining performances, rotating between Amnesia’s immersive Main Room and emblematic sky-roof Terrace—ensuring each night stands as its own distinct sonic voyage. Both Adam Beyer and ARTBAT have become fixtures across RESISTANCE’s international stages; headlining events in far-flung cities like Seoul, Split, Tokyo, and Santiago, commanding the decks of Ultra Music Festival’s iconic RESISTANCE MegaStructure, and selling out shows at RESISTANCE Miami‘s M2 residency.
RESISTANCE Ibiza 2025 will deliver its signature blend of cutting-edge programming, state-of-the-art production, and immersive audiovisual experiences – the same elements that earned the residency DJ Awards’ coveted ‘Best Ibiza Night’ 2018 accolade.
In 2017, RESISTANCE launched its first-ever club residency at the world’s largest nightclub, Privilege Ibiza, quickly establishing itself as a cornerstone of the island’s nightlife. Over three banner seasons, RESISTANCE Ibiza orchestrated a series of never-before-seen, “you-had-to-be-there” moments in house and techno history. Highlights include the global-debut B2B set from techno titans Carl Cox and Maceo Plex, as well as the first-ever B3B performance from Nicole Moudaber, Dubfire, and Paco Osuna, whose marathon set during the 2017 Season Closing Party instantly became a defining moment in RESISTANCE lore.
RESISTANCE Ibiza also lays claim to reuniting the legendary duo of Sasha and John Digweed for an exclusive 2017 season residency. This partnership marked the pair’s first Ibiza appearances together since 2009, and their first club residency in more than 15 years—a momentous return to form not seen since their fabled tenure at Twilo New York ended in 2001.
In 2023, ULTRA Worldwide unveiled its debut U.S. club residency – RESISTANCE Miami– in the festival’s Miami Beach hometown at nightlife haven M2 Miami, transporting RESISTANCE’s signature immersive clubbing experience from Ibiza to America for the very first time. Now in its acclaimed second season, RESISTANCE Miami’s six-month, Saturday night residency has become a staple of the city’s house and techno culture, notching more than 30 sold-out shows, and showcasing headlining performances from underground luminaries like Boris Brejcha, Carl Cox, Eric Prydz, Charlotte de Witte, CamelPhat, Joris Voorn, Mind Against, and Amelie Lens. 
The 2025 Ibiza residency brings the story full circle as RESISTANCE debuts at Amnesia—the venue that hosted ULTRA Worldwide’s first Ibiza event in 2007. A momentous reunion nearly 20 years in the making, RESISTANCE Ibiza 2025 will transform Amnesia’s hallowed architecture into multisensory spectacles all season long, showcasing the large-scale productions, top-of-the-line visual design, and transcendent soundscapes that have come to define the RESISTANCE brand globally. 
Today’s RESISTANCE Ibiza 2025 announcement also marks the launch of RESISTANCE’s revolutionary, yearlong global club residency program, creating an unprecedented circuit of clubbing experiences from Miami to the Mediterranean. This first-of-its-kind format bridges RESISTANCE’s acclaimed U.S. club presence in Ultra’s hometown of Miami Beach, with its award-winning Ibiza residency, merging two of dance music’s most iconic destinations into a singular, transcontinental movement.

When two globally revered superstars like DJ Diesel and Virtual Riot team up, a festival anthem is sure to be made. That's surely the case with their new collaboration, "Damage."

"Damage" arrives just days before "Shaq's Fun House," which features a stacked lineup of John Summit, Ludacris and the NBA legend's own son, Myles O'Neal. The event is scheduled for February 7th in New Orleans right before the Super Bowl.
Meanwhile, Virtual Riot, the Stealing Fire producer, is set to head over to the West Coast for a landmark concert at LA's Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall, the biggest headlining show of his career so far.

Charlie Powell has come to represent upbeat rhythms and limitless excitement as the voice of Capital Dance’s main breakfast show, which wakes thousands of listeners all throughout the UK every day. But this is the story of a DJ whose path from teenage bedroom mixers to commanding festival stages has resulted in her much-awaited first LP, Act A Fool, not just another narrative about a radio personality.
Act A Fool, which was released on Toolroom Records, one of the most esteemed labels in electronic music, is a statement rather than merely a song. Powell’s place not only as a tastemaker but also as a creator inside the genre she loves so profoundly thanks to its sensuous grooves, vintage synth stabs, and vocal hook full of attitude. Let us explore what makes this release—along with the woman behind it—so unique.
What then distinguishes Act A Fool exactly? The track takes little time from first gaining to gaining. The bassline from the first bars welcomes listeners with a new yet rooted bumpiness. The vintage stabs recall humid bases and joyful events under strobes, harking back to the golden years of club culture.
The vocal sample, a feisty, character-filled hook that gives the music layers of personality, is the actual star of the show though. The encouragement of dancers to let go and embrace their inner wild side is lighthearted yet forceful.

Few collaborations in electronic music carry the weight of Monstercat and Hospital Records joining forces. The two label juggernauts have spent years defining and expanding the boundaries of drum & bass, especially the legendary Hospital Records, a cornerstone of the UK scene since 1996. Now, their debut joint compilation sets a bold new precedent for cross-continental creativity in the genre.
Born from an intensive four-day writing camp at London’s TYX Studios, the compilation is a high-voltage showcase of styles from liquid soul to warehouse-shaking neurofunk. Each track has been crafted by a collective dream team of Monstercat and Hospital signees.
The rollout began with daily single releases, each revealing a new sonic dimension. The week started with "What Are We Proving" by hayve and DRIIA, who open the compilation with a slow-burning, emotionally charged odyssey. DRIIA's poignant lyrics melt into hayve’s swelling basslines, delivering a track that pulses with introspection and raw energy. DNMO and SOLAH's "Find Peace" follows, its vintage keys and crisp drums weaving through the latter's soul-drenched vocals.
On the heavier end of the spectrum, "IDGAF" by Anaïs and hayve roars with razor-sharp sound design and unrelenting bass. Meanwhile, "Starchild" by Bensley, BOP and Degs blends celestial soundscapes with rapid-fire lyricism to administer a dose of euphoria wrapped in rhythmic precision.

Few producers can say as much with three tracks as Max Styler does on Don't Stop, a captivating new EP that wastes not a single second.
Out now via Diynamic Music, the EP bridges the gap between technical excellence and pure physical impulse. Across these three tracks, the surging DJ and producer demonstrates his ability to craft house music that's both functionally powerful and artistically compelling.
Its opening cut, "Let' Em' Know," sets the tone with a tech house framework that's elevated by acidic bass that slithers through the mix. The production is crisp and commanding, with each element given room to breathe while still forming a unified groove that's impossible to resist.
The titular "Don't Stop" lives up to its name, providing an insistent call to movement that works its magic through expertly curated vocal samples and a bassline that refuses to relent. It's the kind of track that DJs will reach for when they need to maintain peak energy without overwhelming the dancefloor.
But it's the closing track, "Inferno," that stands as the EP's crowning achievement. It builds tension through operatic vocal fragments that slink ghostlike through a propulsive beat. When the lyric "I feel the temperature rising" enters, it acts as both a warning and a promise—Styler eventually delivers on that mounting pressure with a sweat-soaked house drop.
