However, it was the following year where the track would take on a whole new life as a massive house hit when Cedric Gervais put his spin on it. The remix was a huge success for both Gervais and Del Rey as it became Lana Del Rey’s highest ever charting track in the US reaching number 6 and earned her much more worldwide recognition. Meanwhile Gervais would earn a Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording in 2014 for his take on the song.

Creamfields Releases Images Of New ‘Halo’ Stage

Last year Creamfields introduced the astonishing ‘Zenless’ stage which provided some incredible visuals and pyrotechnics while playing host to the likes of Martin Garrix, Tiesto and Armin Van Buuren. Now for 2025 they’re kicking it up another notch with the introduction of the ‘Halo’ stage which looks to be an impressive concept that will continue to bring this legendary festival into the future.
‘Halo’ will be taking the place of the ‘Runway’ stage which while a very cool design, looks like it won’t hold a candle to the new 360° immersive experience of ‘Halo.’ The concept images show that this will be an outdoor stage with a circular structure surrounding the whole thing with state of the art lighting that will be able to create some breathtaking visuals. With the DJ right in the middle with yet more lighting above them it looks to be a stunning experience where once inside the structure there’ll be a light show whichever way you turn.
The announcement of this new stage has come alongside the unveiling of ‘Downtown’ which is another new concept for 2025 and is an area that’s going to have activities such as football and mini golf, entertainment, makeup and styling areas, and even hot tubs. Creamfields is always updating which is why it remains one of the biggest festivals in the world and 2025 is looking like another huge step forward for them.

Is Steve Angello quitting in 2025?

Electronic music legend Steve Angello has generated fierce conjecture over his future in the business following a mysterious Instagram post revealing his intentions to “embrace more isolation” in 2025. The declaration made by the Swedish House Mafia member and SIZE Records manager comes at a time when the electronic music scene is under more scrutiny for how it handles artist welfare and sustainable traveling policies.
In his meditative speech, Angello considered his 25-year career and characterized it as running “full throttle—never stopping, never resting.” Deeply ingrained in the electronic music scene, many fans and fellow musicians have supported his choice to give mental health and creative rebirth top priority.
The announcement seems to indicate strategic repositioning rather than retirement. Angello’s concentration on using solitude as a tool for artistic expression points to a change in emphasis rather than a leaving from the business. Indicating possible future releases, he said, “more silence, more stillness, and in turn, more creative expression.”
Industry watchers have pointed out similarities with other well-known artists who have lately followed the same actions. “They deserve the break, just like GRiZ is doing and Maiden kinda did this last year,” one Reddit member observed. Often, these pauses have produced creative regeneration rather than career termination.
Given the industry’s continuous discussion on artist well-being, Angello’s announcement timing is especially moving. Modern touring‘s rigorous nature has come under further criticism as performers like Steve Aoki allegedly use to “power naps” to keep their exhausting schedules. One fan’s comment, “Touring all year long is never sustainable,” captures a rising awareness of the psychological and physical toll of continual performance.
Angello‘s choice also raises matters regarding the direction in which the Swedish House Mafia is headed.
Although some may be worried about this statement, it’s interesting to note how carefully and strategically Angello’s approach to retreating seems. He is looking for what he describes as “clarity” alone, not a total detachment.

Anyma and Ellie Goulding's "Hypnotized" Doesn't Just Describe Hypnosis—It Administers It

In a world where AI and humans are increasingly entangled, it's fitting that Anyma and Ellie Goulding have dropped a song about losing control.
Out now via Afterlife/Interscope, "Hypnotized" arrives after its stratospheric premiere during Anyma's historic Vegas Sphere residency. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to lose yourself in electronic music, look no further than this dream collaboration, which will leave you questioning whether you were ever in control at all.
Anyma's production in "Hypnotized" is tighter than a submarine door, with a throbbing bassline that doesn't so much invite you to dance as it does possess your body like a friendly demon. Meanwhile, Goulding's lyrics about "perfect chemistry" and "spiraling down" feel especially poignant when you consider they were debuted in the stupefying Sphere, where her digitally warped face probably made more than a few ravers question their reality.
Goulding performed the collaboration live as a stunning visual engulfed the crowd, her face contorting while a swarm of ghostly hands clawed and twisted her features.
View the original article to see embedded media.
This is far from your typical "featuring" cash grab where a pop star phones in some vocals over a lazy beat. The marriage of Anyma's brooding techno architecture and Goulding's ethereal delivery creates something properly hypnotic, like being slowly pulled into a dancefloor of quicksand.
To that end, you should listen at your own risk. That "circles in my eyes" lyric is as much clever wordplay as it is a warning. The track doesn't just describe hypnosis, but administers it, leaving listeners happily trapped in its haunting soundscapes.

Insomniac Records Wraps 2024 with an Essential Compilation

Insomniac Records closes out 2024 with a compilation that shows exactly why they’ve become such a force in electronic music. Their 25-track ‘Best of’ collection captures what the label does best: releasing music that works both on massive festival stages and in intimate clubs.
BLOND:ISH’s “Never Walk Alone” stands out as a perfect example. The track pairs Steve Appleton’s vocals with a groove that’s helped it rack up 17 million Spotify streams and land coverage from BBC Radio 1 to KISS FM. HUGEL and Diplo’s “Forever” brings similar crossover appeal, topping Beatport’s Afro House chart while finding its way into Billboard and Mixmag.
The label’s grown beyond its original scope too. Their new publishing division and studio complex at Insomniac HQ point to bigger ambitions. Between the main imprint and sub-labels like Factory93 and HARD Records, they’ve put out over 700 tracks this year from artists spanning the electronic spectrum – from Boys Noize’s raw techno to Miss Monique’s progressive house.
Their festival presence has expanded naturally, with label stages at EDC Vegas, Beyond Wonderland, and even their cruise festival EDSea. The Discovery Project keeps feeding new talent into the pipeline, with artists like Illenium and Seven Lions helping judge the next generation.
Insomniac Records has built something solid here – a label that can push both streaming hits and underground heaters without losing its grip on either.
That’s harder than it looks.

LA's Sound Nightclub Offers Full Refunds as City Grapples With Catastrophic Wildfires

Sound Nightclub, a cornerstone of Los Angeles' electronic music scene, has announced a flexible refund policy for all January events in response to the ongoing wildfire crisis affecting the metropolitan area.
There are currently five active wildfires raging in the LA metropolitan area, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, including the catastrophic Palisades Fire. Fueled by high-speed winds, that blaze alone has scorched nearly 20,000 acres and is now "one of the most destructive natural disasters in the history of Los Angeles," according to Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley.
Five people have reportedly died as the uncontained blaze continues to spread, but officials say the death toll is likely higher. Evacuation orders are impacting roughly 200,000 residents at the time of this writing.

Sound Nightclub, located in the heart of Hollywood, will remain operational but is offering ticket-holders the option to receive full refunds without requiring justification. The venue's proprietors have implemented a straightforward refund process, requiring only basic ticketing information via email to process returns.
Sound's move represents a significant gesture from one of LA's most prominent nightlife venues, particularly given the typically strict refund policies common in the music industry. It could set a precedent for how clubs respond to environmental crises in increasingly vulnerable urban areas. 
"We stand in solidarity with you and remain committed to supporting one another. Please prioritize your safety and well-being," Sound said in a statement. "Sound will remain open as scheduled, however, to support our community, we are offering no-questions-asked refunds for all events scheduled through the rest of January, aiming to ease any additional stress or pressure."
Sound has nearly a dozen shows planned through January. DJs scheduled to perform include Chris Avantgarde, Layla Benitez, DJ Seinfeld, Sosa and EDM.com Class of 2022 artist Qrion, among others. Patrons seeking refunds can contact this email address with their ticket information.
You can stay up-to-date on evacuation zones, shelters and other wildfire-related resources via CAL FIRE.
