  2. After finding a home in Chicago for the last 19 years, Pitchfork Music Festival is leaving the city. The festival in 2005 took over Chicago's Union Park for its debut and has since returned each year except for 2020, when most of the live music industry shuttered due to the impact of COVID-19. Sadly for fans looking to celebrate the event's 20th anniversary, its organizers have announced that it won't return to the Windy City next year. "This decision was not made lightly," the festival's organizers said in a statement shared across its website and social media. "For 19 years, Pitchfork Music Festival has been a celebration of music, art and community — a space where memories were made, voices were amplified and the shared love of music brought us all together." Little did they know at the time, but attendees of last summer's Pitchfork Music Festival were the last to enjoy it in Chicago. The 2024 event featured performances by Jamie xx, 100 gecs, Carly Rae Jepsen, Yaeji, De La Soul and Grandmaster Flash, among others. With no specific reason given for the move, the future of Pitchfork Music Festival is uncertain at the time of this writing. Organizers claim they will continue to host events next year and beyond, but have not yet confirmed whether or not their flagship fest will take place at all in 2025. You can read Pitchfork's full statement below. Nineteen years of music and memories. Thank you, Chicago. pic.twitter.com/SmNEXHwKiV — Pitchfork Music Festival Chicago (@pitchforkfest) November 11, 2024

  5. Life is full of changes—whether it’s moving to a new city, starting a new creative project, or reinventing yourself in a fresh environment. These shifts can be both exciting and overwhelming, but with the right mindset and approach, you can find your rhythm and ensure a smooth transition. For those in the EDM scene, where creativity and constant evolution are key, finding balance during these changes is crucial. Here are some creative strategies to help you transition smoothly into your next chapter. 1. Start with a Fresh Soundtrack Music has the power to influence mood and motivation. As you embark on a new journey, whether it’s a relocation or starting a new project, building a playlist that captures the excitement of the next chapter can help you stay inspired and focused. · Curate Your Moving Playlist: If you’re physically moving to a new place, create a playlist that represents both the emotions of leaving your current space and the excitement of your new destination. Include tracks that energize you and reflect the vibe you want to bring into your new life. · Use Music to Set the Tone: As you settle into a new home or begin a new project, let music set the tone for each phase. Whether you need upbeat house tracks to stay productive during unpacking or calming beats to help you focus on planning, your soundtrack can help guide the rhythm of your transition. By using music to establish the mood, you’ll maintain positivity and creativity, no matter what challenges come with the change. 2. Embrace the Creative Chaos Transitions can feel chaotic, but embracing that chaos and turning it into an opportunity for creative growth is essential. Whether you’re rearranging your life or reinventing your artistic output, the period of uncertainty that comes with change can be used to fuel fresh ideas. · Find Inspiration in the Disruption: Moving or starting a new creative endeavor often disrupts routine. Rather than resisting the change, use it as inspiration. The new surroundings, challenges, and people you meet can become catalysts for new music, art, or creative projects. · Use the Moment to Experiment: If you’re transitioning creatively, now is the time to experiment with new sounds, techniques, or collaborations. Just as your life is shifting, allow your creative work to evolve with it. Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and explore new approaches that align with where you’re headed. Embracing the chaos can turn the unpredictability of a transition into an engine for creativity, helping you find your rhythm in new ways. 3. Streamline the Physical Move For those moving to a new city or space, finding your rhythm depends on a smooth and organized move. The less stress you experience during the moving process, the more creative energy you’ll have to focus on your next chapter. · Declutter and Organize: Use the transition as a chance to declutter your physical space. Moving provides the perfect opportunity to get rid of items that no longer serve you. Simplify your move by only taking what adds value and meaning to your life, leaving behind what weighs you down. · Use Professional Movers: To avoid the stress of handling the logistics yourself, consider hiring professional movers to streamline the process. Services like www.shiply.com connect you with reliable movers who can handle everything from your DJ equipment to your personal belongings. This allows you to focus on your creative work while knowing your move is in good hands. · Set Up Your Creative Space First: When you arrive at your new home or studio, prioritize setting up your creative space. Whether it’s your production setup, instruments, or work desk, having a functional creative environment from the start will help you maintain your artistic momentum. By minimizing the logistical stress of a move, you’ll have more mental and emotional bandwidth to focus on creating and enjoying your new space. 4. Lean on Your Community Transitions are easier to navigate when you have a strong support system. In the EDM scene, community is everything, and staying connected with fellow creators, musicians, and fans will help you maintain your creative drive. · Collaborate with Local Artists: If you’re moving to a new city, one of the best ways to find your rhythm is by connecting with local creatives. Attend events, collaborate with local producers, and engage with the scene to build new relationships that fuel your creative journey. · Stay Connected with Your Roots: Even if you’re moving or starting a new project, keep in touch with your existing creative community. Whether it’s through online platforms or collaborating remotely, maintaining these connections will provide a sense of continuity and support. · Share Your Journey: Share your transition with your audience or creative peers. Whether you’re documenting the process on social media or creating new music that reflects your journey, involving others can help you stay grounded and inspired. Your community can serve as a powerful source of encouragement and creativity as you navigate your next chapter. Final Thoughts Transitions are an inevitable part of life, but with the right mindset and approach, they can be powerful opportunities for growth and creativity. By using music to set the tone, embracing creative chaos, streamlining the moving process, and building a strong routine and support network, you can ensure that your next chapter is a smooth and inspiring one. Finding your rhythm through every change will help you stay true to your creative passions while welcoming new possibilities into your life.
  6. Of The Trees recently demonstrated the power of the EDM community to support environmental causes, raising nearly $30,000 for Environment America. The campaign, which wrapped up on November 7, attracted over 20,000 supporters. These fans took action to show their commitment to clean air, wildlife conservation, and sustainable urban spaces. In return, they got the chance to meet Of The Trees at his Red Rocks shows and win tickets to a Moonglade Tour show of their choice. Originally scheduled for November 9-10, the Red Rocks shows had to be postponed due to over a foot of snow. Although this caused disappointment, fans could still support the cause while waiting for the new dates of November 16-17. The fundraising campaign not only showcased Of The Trees’ dedication to environmental causes but also highlighted the influence of music to inspire positive change. In a social media post, he expressed his gratitude, saying, “I’m really happy that we can help make a real impact to help protect the planet in times like these, where the sustainability of the natural world around us is of utmost importance.” Protecting Wild Places Environment America, the nonprofit benefiting from the campaign, is committed to restoring and protecting the natural world. With members spread across the United States, the organization works on initiatives focused on clean air, clean water, wildlife conservation, and sustainable energy. They also advocate for the protection of open spaces and the promotion of a livable climate for future generations. One of the most urgent issues Environment America addresses is the lifestyle that is damaging the planet. The organization believes in a greener future, where nature thrives and people can live healthier, more enriching lives. They use research, public education, and direct action to push for policies that protect the environment. Through litigation and advocacy, they work toward policies that benefit both the planet and the people who call it home. The success of this campaign further emphasizes Of The Trees’ commitment to making an impact beyond music. By using his platform, he demonstrated that even small actions can lead to significant changes. This partnership with Environment America is just one example of how artists can use their influence to support meaningful causes. The enthusiasm of Of The Trees’ fans proves that when music meets a powerful cause, real change is possible.

  7. California-born Max Styler is making waves in the world of dance music with his latest release, ‘Time To Go,’ on Three Six Zero Recordings. With nearly a decade of production experience under his belt, Styler has crafted a distinctively dark, European-inspired sound that pushes the boundaries between house and techno. Styler’s 2024 has been a standout year, marked by his debut appearances at iconic venues like Ushuaia Ibiza alongside Calvin Harris and the legendary Burning Man Festival. His remix of Pleasurekraft’s underground classic ‘Tarantula’ was a hit, and he scored two Beatport No.1s in the Melodic House and Techno genre with his remixes of John Summit feat. Paige Cavell‘s ‘Tears’ and the summer anthem ‘See You Sweat.’ Not one to rest on his laurels, Styler recently collaborated with dance music heavyweights Gorgon City on the track ‘Touch,’ released on the duo’s REALM label. His impressive catalogue spans across esteemed labels such as Solomun’s Diynamic, John Summit’s Experts Only, and Adam Beyer’s Truesoul. Styler has garnered support from top DJs like Fisher, Dom Dolla, Kevin de Vries, and Cassian, and his upcoming shows include appearances at Drumsheds London with Gorgon City, Elrow Miami for the Art Basel Festival, and a coveted sunset slot at EDC Orlando on the day ‘Time To Go’ is released.

  8. Night Tales is a duo from Sydney that plays a unique fusion of electronic music and R&B that inspires attendees who see them become instant fans. On Saturday, November 2, Night Tales came to Audio Nightclub in San Francisco to perform a fantastic set that got everyone dancing and feeling the good vibes at the same time. Feeling the positive vibes from Night Tales at Audio Audio Nightclub stands out from a lot of the nightclubs in San Francisco is that this club stands above a well-renowned bar, Bergerac. That club also hosts sets from diverse artists from various sub-genres of house music, in particular deep house. Another cool thing to know about Audio is that when entering it, the attendees would walk upstairs as if they’re walking up to an attic. When they get the to the dance floor, they see branches of leaves and a disco ball hanging overhead, as well as a retractable roof that opens up when there is a day time show at the venue. As for Night Tales at Audio, the duo continuously hooked the audience by playing fantastic tracks from beginning to end. Whether if they were playing top hits such as ‘Only If’ and ‘Friends’ or playing latest singles like ‘I Just Wanted To Dance’ and ‘Sure Thing’, the mood remained the same positive environment where everyone felt the music inside their soul with their beat and even each vocal. The duo not only are skillful maestros in mixing their set but they are also world-class in their vocal talents too. This phenomenal Australian duo will definitely become one of the world’s best electronic music groups just like how RÜFÜS DU SOL, The Chainsmokers, and Daft Punk came to be.

  9. In the fast-evolving world of Latin Tech House, Rimbano is a name making waves with his fresh and percussive sound. Known for blending diverse cultural influences, Rimbano’s tracks are redefining the genre’s landscape, catching the attention of top names like Cloonee and Gordo. In this interview, we dive into his new single ‘Safada’, his production journey, what’s next for him, and more. Hey Rimbano, thanks for taking the time to chat with us, how are you doing today? Hey! I’m doing great, thank you for having me. Let’s start with ‘Safada’. Can you tell me the story on how this one was created? I started making “Safada” back in January and it actually took a few versions in order to get to the final one. I opted for a Brazilian vocal instead of a Spanish one, which is more usual for Latin Tech House, and added some Brazilian funk percussions to spice the beat up. Those are probably the elements that make it work so well on the dancefloor. Released on Andruss’ Drop Low Records, how does it feel to have your music on this well established label? It’s an honor to me since I really admire the impact Andruss had on the Latin Tech House scene, and I was so excited when he texted me just after his set at EDC Las Vegas saying that he wanted to sign “Safada”. In August we also hung out together in Italy and talked about new projects, so expect new music on Drop Low Records soon! You’ve developed a really distinct percussive house style. Can you share how this signature sound came to be and what inspires it? The Latin Tech House scene can be considered an oversaturated market, with DJs and producers using the same sounds and playing the same tracks over and over again. In order to stand out, I decided to implement in my productions percussive sounds from different cultures (like hand-played djembes and congas from Cuba, Brazil and Africa) instead of just sticking to generic elements. I believe that having a melting pot of cultures in music can lead to original and never heard before products. The same goes for vocals, as I always dig from different sources in order to find a unique vocal for the track I’m working on. What production tips would you give to producers out there searching for their own style? I highly recommend focusing on a specific scene and finding the balance between the sounds that inspire you and what you can actually bring to the table in that scene, based on your own background and culture. That way you’re able to stand out even in the most saturated market as a breath of fresh air. I also suggest finding some specific elements that define your signature sound, so when people listen to a track, they’ll be able to recognize it as yours. This has been a game changer for my career, as people started sending me videos of my unreleased tracks being played by big names like Cloonee and Gordo. Those tracks weren’t out yet, but people recognized them as mine. If you could collaborate with any other DJ, who do you think would be the perfect match for your music? The perfect match would probably be Andruss. We mutually support each other’s work and our styles fit well together, as peculiar percussions and vocals are common elements in our productions. Another DJ and producer is GREG (BR). He’s one of the hottest names too in the Latin Tech House scene, and we already have a track together in the works. We are also planning to work on more music together in the future, so stay tuned for that! Who would you love to collaborate with outside the house music scene? If it was on a House track, definitely Charli XCX. Her vocals are perfect for House music, proof of that is the support from John Summit on his radioshow of my edit of Charli XCX’s “Club Classics”. But if it were a completely different genre, I would love to work with Ava Max. I’m a huge fan of her music and electro pop in general, and she is one of the artists that best represent that genre worldwide. Which artists have influenced you the most as a DJ and producer? Cloonee and Gordo have definitely influenced my sound, both in productions and sets. When I have writer’s block I listen to some of their sets and immediately get inspiration back. Furthermore, having my music continuously supported by them (Gordo played my track “Colombiana” together with Jezu (US) during all summer, as Cloonee did with “Safada” and many other unreleased tunes) means a lot to me, and I’m so grateful for that. Thanks for taking the time to chat! Do you have any news to close this out? Sure! I already have music planned in the near future, such as my debut release on Kevin McKay’s label Glasgow Underground and my comeback release on the Las Vegas based label Intentions Records. At the moment I’m in the studio working on more music and I’m currently planning international gigs for 2025, so keep an eye on my social media to stay updated on what’s to come!
  10. Many attending the EDC Orlando festival over the weekend witnessed an unforgettable moment when Alesso paused his set to honor the late Liam Payne. In a tear-jerking display of remembrance, the Swedish electronic music superstar stopped his DJ set to pay tribute to Payne, whose sudden and tragic death has left the music world in a state of mourning. Just before dropping their 2020 collaboration "Midnight" at EDC, Alesso took a moment to address the crowd from the sprawling circuitGROUNDS stage, his voice thick with emotion. "Hopefully, he can hear us," Alesso said as his words echoed across a sea of ravers. The crowd responded with an awe-inspiring gesture, raising their phone lights to the sky in unison and illuminating the night. It was a scene filled with shared grief and respect as Alesso stood solemnly, soaking in the poignant moment before playing the song that once brought the two artists together. View the original article to see embedded media. Payne, 31, died on October 16th after reportedly falling from the third floor of a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina’s capital. Three people are currently facing charges for crimes related to his death, according to CNN. With Payne’s soulful vocals layered over Alesso's euphoric production, "Midnight" remains a symbol of hope. Released at the height of the pandemic, the track captured the resilience of artists and fans alike during a time when live music was out of reach. The pair even filmed a special music video from separate quarantined locations, highlighting a connection that transcended the sense of physical distance.

  12. In a twisted, adrenaline-pumping celebration of Squid Game, Netflix is turning the famed Drumsheds into a one-night rave inspired by the high-stakes series. Once a sprawling IKEA warehouse in North London, Drumsheds now stands as the city's largest nightclub, a vast industrial space with room for 15,000 people. Attendees can expect heart-thumping electronic music and immersive thrills worthy of the cutthroat games that left audiences worldwide on edge in 2021 and beyond. Add to the experience a selection of Korean street food vendors and more interactive experiences that bring the show’s intensity to life, and you’ve got one unforgettable—and totally free—night ahead. The rave is set to take place December 18th, just before the show's hotly anticipated second season is scheduled to drop on Netflix on December 26th. Squid Game currently holds the record as the streaming service's most popular series of all-time, with over 1.65 billion view hours in the first 28 days after its September 2021 premiere. For a chance at tickets, you’ll simply need to join the "Squid Game 2: The Rave" official waitlist, which currently has a two-per-person limit. Attendees must be over the age of 18 and have photo ID, or they'll be out of the game before it even starts. Join the waitlist for passes to "Squid Game 2: The Rave" here.

  15. Cinnedi’s metamorphosis from bass music storyteller to techno provocateur hits like a sledgehammer on “Rush.” After crafting the sprawling “Seven Deadly Sins” saga, she’s ditched both the “O” in her name and any trace of compromise in her sound. The result? A relentless 128 BPM descent into dystopian techno that makes her previous work sound practically pastoral. Where “Seven Deadly Sins” painted elaborate portraits of pride, addiction, and redemption, “Rush” opts for straightforward sonic warfare – all atmospheric menace and mechanized fury. It’s the sound of an artist torching the rulebook she wrote herself. “Rush” suggests Cinnedi’s not just changing lanes – she’s building her own highway straight into techno’s dark heart. Sorry, bass music – she’s got new demons to chase. The post Cinnedi reveals new sound on ‘Rush’, a Dark Techno Odyssey appeared first on Dancing Astronaut.
  16. Ivory has imaginatively reinterpreted Bantwanas’ “Akanayo” into a melodious techno trip with expressive vocals. This remix preserves the core of the original song while also bringing it into a contemporary electronic environment, where Ivory’s mastery at creating immersive soundscapes really shines. By including male and female vocal layers, Ivory produces a hypnotic effect that captivates listeners into a strong, almost transcendental experience. The remix feels fresh but anchored in history since it deftly combines ethnic ideas with a modern electronic foundation. Ivory finds great inspiration in the track’s strong environmental message, which helps her to create an emotional resonance that really connects with listeners. The soundtrack of the remix swings between sad introspection and explosive adrenaline, which makes it flexible for times of dance floor excitement as well as peaceful meditation. This remix distinguishes itself since the harmony of rhythmic intensity with ethereal parts creates a very good and immersive environment in any context. Who is Ivory? Originally from Milan, Ivory is becoming well-known as a young electronic music star. His production method is rich and uses a sophisticated combination of hardware synths, plugins, samples, and field recordings. From melancholy, sad tunes to ecstatic anthems, Ivory’s sound profile is defined by a trademark mix of house and R&B-inspired vocals alongside futuristic synth work. His songs appeal to both ambient, atmospheric events and peak-time excitement, therefore accommodating a range of emotions. Respected musicians like Tale Of Us and Mind Against have taken note of Ivory as she advocates the creative junction of melodic and emotional techno that she epitomizes. Prominent labels such Innervisions, Afterlife, Kompakt, and Multinotes—known for generating some of the most forward-looking music in the genre—have recordings he has released. His work regularly shows a surreal beauty, stretching the possibilities of electronic music with emotionally powerful, dramatic compositions. Part of Cercle Records‘ expanding collection, the remix of “Akanayo” has found a home among varied, genre-blending musicians. Originally launched in September 2020 as a part of the French music corporation Cercle, Cercle Records has quickly grown to be a center for creative ideas across electronic and neoclassical genres. Today, the label reflects the changing variety of electronic music by featuring more than fifty musicians whose works range from house and techno to downtempo and beyond.

  18. In response to a rise in pickpocketing at raves and festivals since the pandemic, Insomniac Events has introduced a new set of security measures aimed at protecting festival goers. Insomniac now checks bags as attendees leave the event, a new yet effective method designed to prevent theft at some of the biggest EDM events. The rave scene in the US has seen a surge in reported thefts. Pickpocketing rings, often working in groups, have targeted festival goers, taking advantage of the packed environments to steal phones, wallets, and other personal items. One method thieves use is wrapping stolen phones in foil, a tactic meant to block cellular signals and prevent tracking. In response, Insomniac’s security teams are checking for unusual bags with increased weight or “upward bags” that appear to be packed irregularly, hoping to catch these individuals before they make it off the premises. Insomniac’s approach involves checking bags at the exit, weighing them, and flagging any bags that appear abnormally heavy or suspicious. This step could be especially effective because it occurs at a time when thieves may least expect to be searched—on the way out rather than in. For the EDM and rave community, these measures represent a step in the right direction. Raves are spaces meant for freedom, music, and unity, and reducing pickpocketing incidents will help maintain the positive, welcoming atmosphere that keeps the community coming back.
  19. Rampa, &ME and Adam Port are the three names who shook the electronic music world with their beats and vibes at every show. After a fantastic 2024 where Keinemusik have performed at exquisite locations such as the Pyramids of Giza and Mykonos, but also at festivals such as Tomorrowland, the crew are ready to make their return to London in 2025. Four shows have been announced yet for Keinemusik’s 2025 tour, and one of them brings the afro-house icons to Gunnersbury Park on 15th of June. The event is expected to unite fans from all over the world, witnessing one of the best productions along with the funky beats of Rampa, Adam Port and &ME. The last time Keinemusik played in London was earlier this year when the trio along with promoter Krankbrother, hosted a one day festival experience in Finsbury Park. Bringing out a unique lineup for the event, Keinemusik’s show sold-out quickly, becoming one of the most anticipated parties in London’s dance music scene. Due to its capacity, Gunnersbury Park will allow Krankbrother and Keinemusik to organise an event of larger scales, and even though the venue can accommodate a bigger number of people, the 2025 London date is expected to sell-out fast. Make sure to sign up here for the latest news and keep an eye out for ticket sales which will happen on Wednesday 20th of November (presale tickets) and Thursday 21st of November (Subject to Demand General On Sale).
