Released on Insomniac’s IN / ROTATION on October 8th “You & I,” is Dutch music icon Bingo Players and house music veteran Plastik Funk’s newest track. Feel-good, disco-fueled track filled with contagious enthusiasm is “You & I”. Its unquestionable crossover appeal is created by its upbeat top line and joyful vocal harmonies sitting alongside funky guitar licks, warm piano chords, and flinging synth lines. This is a unique music for the dancefloor since the two producers mix strengths to create a piece that naturally combines bubbling modern house sounds with old disco components. I’m excited to finally release this track together with Plastik Funk! We’ve been sitting on it for a while, and the reactions have been great so far. Hopefully, people will enjoy this uplifting, disco-influenced track as much as we enjoyed making it! – Bingo Players Dutch producer Bingo Players is well-known for guiding the electro-house explosion in the middle of the century. Having a platinum- and gold-certified career in dance music, he has also had seven Billboard Dance Top 10 singles on his two-decade record. His last collaboration, “Pieces,” with Vassy and Disco Fries, tied for first place in the US Mediabase Dance Radio Airplay chart. Maybe my favorite release this year. The vocals are the best toplines I’ve had in my hands in years. Also, happy and proud we finally made this Bingo Players and Plastik Funk collab happen, which makes this release even bigger. Uplifting disco house right here for the dancefloor, but also for the radio. – Plastik Funk Another seasoned pro noted for his bouncy, bass-heavy house productions is Plastik Funk.

Sound artist and musician Paul Cousins has announced Atomised Listening – an interactive two day analog sound exhibition at the legendary arts venue Stone Nest in London’s West End on 22 and 23 November. Exploring our relationship with technology once it becomes obsolete, Atomised Listening will transform the former chapel into a sanctuary of sound. Visitors are invited to create an ever evolving sonic sculpture using five mid-century tape machines stationed around the venue. They will be able to mix a personal interpretation of the work by creating new soundscapes using the analog equipment provided by the artist. A Quadraphonic sound system will transmit a composition made of 10 asynchronous sounds as visitors engage with the tape machines, bringing new life to the obsolete equipment. The visitors are welcome to linger in the space and watch as the sonic sculpture develops during the course of each day. The exhibition stems from Cousins’ profound interest in conservation of technology when it becomes discarded and forgotten. With the shelf life of everyday technology becoming increasingly shorter, the exhibition encourages its visitors to play and engage with tangible media while creating something new out of obsolescence. Atomised Listening is a celebration of the heart and soul of analog equipment while also advocating a more mindful consumption and relationship with technology. Paul Cousins says: “Atomised Listening is the idea of a musical piece being seemingly disconnected moments rather than a unified composition, a concept coined by Theodor Adorno. In keeping with this, I have created a multi-channel, asynchronous work using obsolete tape machines. With this installation, the listener becomes the performer and is completely immersed in the experience. No technical knowledge is required to interact with the work. The sculpture’s form is ever-evolving and it changes at the hands of each user. The technology is no longer obsolete” Atomised Listening is supported by Arts Council England with audio systems provided by L-Acoustics and Tape Echo by Soundgas. Address: Stone Nest, 136 Shaftesbury Avenue, London W1D 5EZ Tickets: £5.00, available to purchase here Opening times: Fri 22 November 4:00pm-10:00pm | Sat 23 November 3:00pm-10:00pm Age guidance: 12+ The post Atomised Listening – an Interactive sound installation using obsolete technology opens at London’s iconic Stone Nest appeared first on Decoded Magazine.

The electronic dance music world is a creative playground where artists push sonic boundaries and merge styles to craft unforgettable beats. While we’ve seen a fair share of thrilling collaborations, there are some dream pairings that would take the scene by storm. From genre-defying duos to powerhouse combinations, here are six potential dance music collaborations that would truly be mind-blowing. 1. David Guetta and TiëstoTwo giants of the EDM world, David Guetta and Tiësto have been at the forefront of the genre for decades, shaping the modern dance music scene. Guetta is known for his chart-topping, festival-shaking hits that blend pop sensibilities with house and big room, while Tiësto’s legendary career spans trance, electro-house, and future house. Together, their fusion of styles could lead to an unstoppable festival anthem that spans across house, pop, and future rave sounds. With both artists’ experience working with major vocalists, this collaboration would likely produce a euphoric, vocal-driven banger that dominates the charts and unites dance floors around the globe. 2. Amelie Lens and Charlotte de WitteThe techno scene is more vibrant than ever, and a collaboration between two of its strongest forces—Amelie Lens and Charlotte de Witte—would be a seismic event in the underground. Both Belgian DJs and producers have carved out their own lanes, with Lens’ deep, dark, and atmospheric techno contrasted by de Witte’s raw, acid-infused energy. Together, their collaboration would likely result in a relentless, driving techno track, filled with hard-hitting basslines and hypnotic rhythms, perfect for the peak hours of a warehouse rave. It would be a must-hear for any fan of modern techno and a testament to the strength of female artists in the industry. 3. Skrillex and Axwell & IngrossoWhat happens when the dubstep icon Skrillex meets Swedish progressive house royalty Axwell & Ingrosso? Fireworks, that’s what. Skrillex is known for his innovative, bass-heavy drops and genre-bending approach, while Axwell & Ingrosso bring anthemic melodies and soaring energy that have electrified main stages around the world. A collaboration between these two forces could easily become a genre crossover masterpiece. Imagine Skrillex’s gritty basslines layered over Axwell & Ingrosso’s melodic build-ups—it would be a track that balances emotional highs with ground-shaking lows. The world of EDM would undoubtedly stand still for a moment to take in such an explosive fusion of styles. 4. Nicky Romero and Steve AngelloNicky Romero and Steve Angello both bring a mastery of progressive house, but each has their unique take on the genre. Romero is known for his powerful, melodic drops and technical production skills, while Angello, a former member of the Swedish House Mafia, has been a master of creating larger-than-life moments in his tracks. Their collaboration would likely lean into epic, big room progressive vibes. Think soaring synths, emotive chords, and drops that would send shockwaves through any festival crowd. The blending of Angello’s bold, dramatic touch with Romero’s clean, punchy production could result in a dancefloor anthem that captures the essence of progressive house’s glory days. 5. Hardwell and Knife PartyIf there’s a pairing that could bring pure chaos and energy to the dance floor, it would be Hardwell and Knife Party. Hardwell, known for his big room house anthems and high-energy sets, and Knife Party, the side project of Pendulum members known for their aggressive, electro-house and bass-driven tracks, would form an intense combo. This collaboration would likely result in a high-octane festival smasher, combining Hardwell’s knack for massive builds and euphoric drops with Knife Party’s glitchy, electro-house madness. Expect pounding bass, unpredictable drops, and an unrelenting tempo—perfect for those peak festival moments when the crowd is craving intensity. 6. Kygo and Don DiabloOn the more melodic side of dance music, a collaboration between Kygo and Don Diablo could create something truly unique. Kygo, the king of tropical house, brings warm, soothing melodies and lush soundscapes, while Don Diablo’s future house style is more upbeat and energetic, yet equally melodic. Together, they could create a track that blends Kygo’s chill vibes with Don Diablo’s future-forward house beats. Picture a song that starts with Kygo’s signature soft piano and tropical plucks, building into Don Diablo’s futuristic, groovy drop. It would be a genre-blending masterpiece that’s both uplifting and danceable, bridging the gap between sunset beach vibes and late-night dance floors. These six collaborations represent some of the most exciting possibilities in the dance music world. Each pairing brings a unique blend of styles and influences that could lead to groundbreaking tracks. Whether it’s the high-energy fusion of Skrillex and Axwell & Ingrosso or the underground techno mastery of Amelie Lens and Charlotte de Witte, these dream collaborations would push boundaries, dominate festivals, and leave lasting marks on the EDM scene. Let’s hope these artists are listening—because the world is ready for these insane team-ups!

A massive crane suspended the largest disco ball we've ever seen above III Points' Mind Melt stage, a radiating beacon that doubled as a testament to the festival's fearless pursuit to reach new heights. The event, which celebrated its 11th year on October 18th and 19th, paid homage to Miami's eclectic arts and cultural scene. Local and international artists alike performed across a slew of genres, like house, funk, techno, hip-hop, bass and more. III Points 2024 featured 11 diverse stages around the arts district of Miami, all stacked with L-Acoustics speakers that were dialed in to perfection. The crisp sound was the cherry on top of each artist's performance, fully immersing fans in the audiovisual experience. Perhaps the musical highlight of the entire weekend was Justice's hotly anticipated performance. Their live featured timeless dance classics and high-energy tracks from their latest album, Hyperdrama, expertly paired with some of the industry's most cutting-edge stage design. A deluge of lights and lasers danced to take new forms as the duo's iconic silhouettes grounded the performance. Another highlight was Jamie xx's set. He played tracks from his new album, In Waves, including heavy-hitters like "All You Children" and "Waited All Night." The renowned producer flexed his tastemaker abilities by blending an array of tempos to keep us on our toes while curating an innovative and dance-forward experience. On Friday night, a rainstorm brewed overhead while Jungle performed their signature soulful blend of funk, electronica and disco. The crowd didn't let the weather bother them one bit, and dancing in the rain below the disco ball instantly became a core memory. Other noteworthy performances from III Points included HorsegiirL, Mochakk, PAWSA, Beltran and EDM.com Class of 2024 stars Sara Landry and Of The Trees. View the original article to see embedded media. Beyond the music, III Points also delivered a variety of art experiences. Inside the Mana Wynwood warehouse, "Mokiworld" by Mokibaby transported us to another dimension, dripping in chrome, rainbow and retrofuturistic aesthetics. The warehouse also featured a skating rink, the "Full Moon Motel" housing Red Bull's Unforseen stage, the III Points Players Club and 444, a special L-Acoustics x Apple Music stage with three exclusive four-hour sets per night. III Points described 444 as "a dancefloor outside of time and space," with sets by Seth Troxler, D33 with Danny Daze and Maher Daniel, Yu Su and more. The space acted as a powerful ode to sound culture, with masterfully tuned speakers staged around the room. "Unlike conventional mixing, which blends audio between left and right channels, L-ISA enables a sound experience where the stereo image is precisely spread around the room; positioned, scaled and moved with infinite flexibility, within a three-dimensional space," III Points explained about the 444 specs. View the original article to see embedded media. Outside, we immersed ourselves in Age of Union's Black Hole Experience by artist Kelly Nunes, which featured an LED tunnel leading to a black hole projection chamber. Inside the art piece, Jacques Green's exclusive track "Ligo" played while the visuals ignited a theme of interconnectedness with the universe. The experiential art piece reminded us that while humans may be small specks in the grand scheme of space, we play a dynamic role in the environment and we must appreciate the delicate dance required to balance our impacts on the world. All said and done, III Points continues to impress year after year. The festival's world-class production, lineup and arts offerings left us awestruck. Beneath the glow of the massive disco ball, it was tough not to feel immense gratitude and appreciation for Miami's diverse cultural scene, which brings people from all walks of life together through the lens of music and art. We felt the city's pulse throughout the entire weekend at III Points. Revisit the magic of III Points via the photo gallery below. III Points 2025 Prophet Passes are on sale now.

A new report from SoundCloud has revealed that electronic music fans are the most engaged users on the platform. Whether it’s sharing, commenting, or reposting tracks, these fans go above and beyond to support their favorite artists. The data, revealed during a panel discussion at Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) with Dutch DJ/producer Mau P, highlights just how essential electronic music has become to the SoundCloud ecosystem. Electronic Music Fans Lead Engagement According to SoundCloud, electronic music fans are 52% more likely to comment, 104% more likely to share music, and 85% more likely to repost than the average listener. This heightened level of interaction underscores the passion within the electronic music community. For artists, this level of engagement means more visibility and a better chance of breaking through the noise in a crowded music space. SoundCloud’s ability to foster a direct connection between artists and fans has long been a standout feature of the platform. With more tools enabling artists to engage directly with their audience, SoundCloud has become a go-to platform for electronic producers looking to build a fanbase from the ground up. Jack Bridges of SoundCloud emphasized this during a panel at IMS Ibiza, noting that more artists and labels are using the platform early in their careers to gain traction. House, Hardcore, and Trance Dominate When it comes to genre dominance, house music sits comfortably at the top of the charts for plays, listening time, and audience size on SoundCloud. Hardcore comes in second for both plays and listening time, while trance secures the second-largest audience. Interestingly, trance also claims the title of the fastest-growing genre on the platform, with a 24% increase in listening time and an 11% rise in listeners since 2023.

LSZEE has exploded onto the scene this past year. The duo comprised of LSDream and CloZee is bringing a new wave of bass music to our ears. After taking over Red Rocks for 2 sold-out nights, they took their experience to the famous Brooklyn Mirage. For 2 hours, bass fans were treated to more than wubs. We had the pleasure of listening to a stacked lineup comprised of Daily Bread, Tripp St., A Hundred Drums, and Jordan Moody. It was hypnotic and trippy and filled with grooves all over. The openers and closers were phenomenal and set the stage perfectly. LSZEE showed off their first album together self-titled LSZEE. The 13-track album is impressive and diverse. It is a beautiful combination of their signature sounds. As LSDream said on stage, Cloozee is his “Spirit Sister” and you could feel it. LSZEE It was wonderful seeing these two grace the stage. LSDream and CloZee are experts in their genres and together they are so much more. It really is the perfect combo of heavy yet funky bass combined with ethnic-infused sounds. I saw both of them separately for the first time at Elements this year and was thoroughly impressed. Seeing duos sometimes feels off but this felt perfectly right. They are spiritually made for each other and you could see it on stage. The two played all of their classics plus their album of course. They left fans happy with ‘PEACE LOVE & WUBS’, ‘FRENCH DREAM’, ‘WOOK WHISTLE’, and ‘NIGHTHAWK’. I cannot wait to see these two again, whether it be together or separately. I feel spiritually connected with them after this year. The post LSZEE Takes Over Brooklyn Mirage For Increible Experience appeared first on EDMTunes.

In an election year, it’s somewhat common to see musical artists calling out political candidates for using their music in political ads or political rallies. More often than not, those instances involve music other than electronic dance music and usually involving calling out a Republican candidate. This time, techno DJ Sama Abdulhadi is calling out the Kamala Harris Campaign for unauthorized use of her name, image, and likeness in a campaign ad. Apparently, the Harris Campaign posted an ad called “Like Detroit” which included footage of Sama performing at Detroit’s Movement Festival in an attack on her opponent, Donald Trump. The DJ took to Instagram and posted a statement: “The use of this footage was unauthorized and done without my consent. The use of this footage implies that I endorse Vice President Harris’ presidential candidacy, which is totally and utterly false. It is deeply offensive to my social, moral, and political beliefs and is misleading political advertising by VP Harris’ Presidential Campaign. For the avoidance of doubt, I do not endorse, nor have I ever endorsed, Vice President Harris, and I am taking the necessary legal steps to ensure that this video is promptly retracted, to dispel any notion of an association between myself and VP Harris’ campaign for the us Presidency.” The post Sama Abdulhadi Calls Out Kamal Harris For Unauthorized Use of Her Image in Campaign Aid appeared first on EDMTunes.

As the modern dance community continues to champion bold innovations in bass music, rising “trap metal” producer STVG contributes to the scene with his hard-hitting new single, “GNASH.” Now streaming on all platforms via Continua MGMT, STVG’s latest track delivers a visceral sonic intensity that could even catch DJ Diesel by surprise. Drawing inspiration from Skrillex’s early work, the Call of Duty video game series, and the heavy metal juggernauts comprising Slipknot, “GNASH” adds to STVG’s growing discography known for its relentless auditory aggression. So far in his career, the emerging UK producer has garnered attention and public support from top bass tastemakers like SVDDEN DEATH and Subtronics. Commenting on his newest release, STVG shares,. “Gnash is ignorantly heavy and a subtle ode to my trap metal roots. I take a lot of inspiration from that genre and it’s still a big part of my daily life…If you make music that’s more authentic to yourself, then chances are the outcome will be better.” With an appropriately timed release just ahead of Halloween 2024, STVG’s “GNASH” will surely set the mood for a scary good time.

Lubalin is continuing the rollout to his debut album with a contemplative new single, “dog.” Serving as the fifth extension from his upcoming debut album haha, no worries, “dog” brings introspective lyrics from the multi-talented singer-songwriter-producer together with a gliding production backdrop. Lubalin had explained that he loves the single “because it’s actually secretly a sad piano ballad disguised as a big pop drum & bass song. [He] wrote it on the piano originally but when [he] was working on the album, [he] was exploring so many different iterations that I figured I’d try this song in the DnB sound that was emerging. After turning stone after stone, banging my head against it, something just clicked, and the whole thing just came to life. It went from a demo [he] almost cut out from the album twice to one of [his] favorite songs.” The Canadian has achieved notoriety through his internet drama-inspired parody videos on TikTok. The vitality of his posts helped to land him spots on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and The Kelly Clarkson Show to name a couple. However, his social media success—of course— does not define who he is as an artist, with the multi-talented producer having released music dating back to 2020 and a discography that includes his 2022 EP, whose love. “dog” comes on the heels of previously released singles “bullet time,” “trust issues,” “you know me,” and “just love.” And Lubalin’s debut album haha, no worries is scheduled for release on December 6.

Yes, in my family my parents always were listen music and then my brothers and sisters. I grow up with sounds of soft rock, flamenco, spanish folklore, romantic latin pop, and then I heard Soda Stereo and Miguel Mateos, from Argentina, where I am from. And they blow my mind… What kickstarted your music career? To be honest, I was always a frustrated Dj, and then the pandemic hit and being in the independent industry film field, everything stopped at that moment. So, I went crazy thinking and I created a concept about fashion and music, and I thought if I do a clothing line, I need a nice beat for my promos, so then I start writing my first song that now is number 4 in the album, the song is called “Dancing In My Place” which I released as single and then make remixes releasing as EP, everything during the pandemic. Then my idea of making an Album was in my head for a long time. Lucky since a met a great professionals that help me to build the concept. DMA (Daniel Morales Arancibia) the master Dj from Chile jump in the project and we create the amazing beats and as a songwriter I created everything how I want it and delivery to them. The singers are incredible there and the mixing process and mastering with Richard Fernando in Argentina was the touch part to sound I want it, and last but not least the pushing help work from Rafa Sardina (19-Time Grammy® & Latin Grammy® Winner Producer/Mixer/Engineer) which I called him my friend mentor now, who guide me in this field, he mixed the first song Dancing In MY Place. Tell us more about your sound and how it’s evolved over time I truly believe that music is a circle in our lives, so one day we hear a song from a classic rock and the next day a classical music and then we wake up we a dance song in our head. So, sound and beats are frequencies, at least for me, that create magic and for some reason, even listen to a new song, it reminded me a song from the past, even if the song has a similar beat or something came as a memory, my beat sound in Cronofios is a transition from today’s music to the 90’s and even 80’s dance electric pop, which it can be a variation of alternative music, even for me, it is an alternative music. It will be a blend of that time and the now. Any words you want to share to encourage other artists or producers? What intrigues me more is how we, as artists, we think we can do something else, and forget about art, and then after time, you realize that you need to create again, start again, saying this is; I encourage to don’t wait for a right time that you think you will be recognize, keep going, keep working, only working in your art will make you win, winning as creator, fulfilling your soul. No necessary wining an award. So, keep shining! How do you nurture your industry relationships? In these days it become more difficult for independent artists to get in touch with the “industry” or to be heard, what I do is, “making noises here and there”, through social media, and my channels to see if someone, one day will open a door to be able to live as artists, not living two lives, as I called it when we have two jobs. Is there anyone you’d like to thank that’s been crucial to your journey? I can thank myself, because only myself truly believe what I am able to, talking about be recognized by the industry and making your art known.
