  1. GNDHI, the eclectic artist and multi-instrumentalist returns with his newest track ‘Bangalore’. Renowned for pushing boundaries and infusing global soundscapes, GNDHI delivers a club anthem that embodies the lively essence of his hometown. ‘Bangalore’ showcases GNDHI’s mastery in integrating cultural motifs with electronic music, combining South Indian Konnakol vocal rhythms to create a unique experience like no other. The track kicks off with intricate melodies and an energetic baile influence. GNDHI’s versatility is highlighted throughout, with his artistry taking center stage. As its name suggests, ‘Bangalore’ serves as a tribute to his roots, encapsulating the city’s pulse through pure experimentation. The track’s deep, hypnotic beat pulls listeners in, delivering a sense of euphoria immediately from the start which will keep fans on their feet all night long. Pulling inspiration from Afrobeat, Baile funk, and trap, GNDHI effortlessly incorporates these styles into his production elements. Following the success of previous singles such as ‘Move On’ and ‘BULLSHXT’, he continues to explore new frontiers with his latest single. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone India, GNDHI discussed his evolving live performances, stating: “I’ve categorized my sets into two now. One is a hybrid live set, and one is a fully live set. The fully live set has no DJ decks, and the hybrid live has decks, but I’m still doing live synthesis, live saxophone, and percussions.” GNDHI‘s impressive catalog has garnered acclaim from renowned publications including GQ, Billboard, and EARMILK. While many artists have been rinsing his tunes across major festivals such as Ultra Japan, Coachella, Lollapalooza, and EDC. With a lineup of future releases already in the works, GNDHI solidifies his place as one of the most exciting and influential artists of the year. “Bangalore’s energy is what drives me creatively and this track is my way of capturing that vibe. Merging the classic sound of retro trumpets, the rhythmic artistry of Konnakol, and South Asian beats with a touch of Baile and Bass. It’s a nod to my roots while delivering a fresh record to my fans” – GNDHI
  2. When it comes to the magic conjured by an artist and the venue in which they perform, there may not be a better alliance than Of The Trees and AREA15. The EDM.com Class of 2024 inductee, a rising superstar, has quickly emerged as one of the electronic music community's brightest artists at the intersection of sound design and visual storytelling. He recently announced his largest headlining tour yet, "Moonglade." The expansive tour will send Of The Trees to a slew of major venues from coast to coast, but perhaps none more compelling than AREA15, the immersive Vegas campus changing the fabric of Sin City's entertainment sector. Considering the show's billing as "an unbelievable night of ice cold bass music from the frigid plains of Maine," attendees can safely expect a visual spectacle of epic—and haunting—proportions. They'll be enveloped by the dreamlike whimsy of his signature, eye-popping LED castle stage design, which is touted as the pièce de résistance of "Moonglade." To that end, the convergence of the artist's phantasmal production and AREA15's captivating ambiance promises to be a rare and unforgettable event. Of The Trees will take over AREA15 on November 29th, 2024.

  3. Hailing from Bangalore, India, rising music producer GNDHI has officially bequeathed an infectious tribute to his beloved hometown. Titled with warm-hearted adequacy, “Bangalore” materializes a tightly mixed and expertly rhythmic addition to GNDHI’s growing music catalog. The one-off dance cut, released in partnership between Sunset Entertainment and Create Music Group, effectively capitalizes on an ear-grabbing brass sequence upheld by intricate tribal percussion. A trained drummer, percussionist, and saxophonist, GNDHI’s modest but mighty discography effectively captures the multi-instrumentalist’s long-nurtured talents. “Bangalore,” which could single-handedly back that claim, marks the burgeoning tastemaker’s fourth single of 2024, landing on the heels of “Cry Me A River,” “Move On,” and “BULLSHXT,” respectively. With respect to his latest, however, GNDHI delivers a bona fide club weapon while drawing direct inspiration from the lively essence of his hometown. Given the commercial yet tasteful appeal of his new track, GNDHI will undoubtedly continue climbing the ranks as a credible musician in the dance music space. Get familiar with the rising talent’s sonic capabilities by streaming “Bangalore” below. The post GNDHI pays sonic homage to hometown with new single, ‘Bangalore’ appeared first on Dancing Astronaut.
  4. Earlier this week, media giant Billboard released an article that made serious allegations against several music festivals, including North Coast Music Festival. However, these claims were later proven to be incorrect. The claims in question were that at least two festivals — North Coast and Lost Lands — had been selling part of their inventory tickets to Lyte as a way to scalp on a bit of extra revenue, as opposed to selling them themselves from their official first-hand website. After further investigation, though, it was discovered that North Coast Music Festival was actually selling tickets at or below face value on the secondary market to protect customers from being overcharged. This decision resulted in less profit for the festival itself. Despite generating revenue from these sales — and expecting lesser profit from them —, the festivals did not receive any of the profits. According to court documents, North Coast Music Festival sold tickets on Lyte at a loss, even after accounting for the fees generated. Lost Lands Music Festival also experienced similar losses, with Lyte owing them over $300,000 in revenue and fees. Billboard has since issued corrections and provided additional information to clarify their original claims, and most websites that used the original post as a source have also stepped back from their sayings, including us. We apologize for any misinformation reported, and we’ll be updating you on this topic as more information rolls out.

  7. UKF is thrilled to present an exclusive extract from How You Make Me Feel by Sherif Dhaimish & Mark O’Donnell, the forthcoming book celebrating the life and legacy of Marcus Intalex, one of drum & bass’ most pioneering and beloved figures. From his early days DJing in Burnley to his transformative years on the Manchester rave scene, Marcus became a beacon for the drum & bass community worldwide, while also effortlessly moving into techno with his Trevino alias. The book chronicles his journey from the raw energy of ‘Gunchester’ jungle raves to international acclaim, capturing the essence of a man who was not just a DJ or producer, but a vital force in electronic music for nearly 30 years. Told through the voices of those who knew him best, including Goldie, Calibre, DJ Flight, and Doc Scott, this illustrated oral history paints a vivid picture of Marcus’ trailblazing career. How You Make Me Feel offers over 100 rare photos, artwork, and memorabilia, bringing his story to life visually while providing a deep dive into the emotional weight of his music. From Metalheadz to Berghain, Marcus left an indelible mark on club culture, and this book is a fitting tribute to the enduring influence of a humble yet restless creative force who continues to inspire artists and music lovers across the globe. Extract taken from How You Make Me Feel: the Life & Legacy of Marcus Intalex By Sherif Dhaimish & Mark O’Donnell Velocity Press, 2024 GRAHAM ‘GRUMPY’ NAYLOR I once drove Marcus to Goldie’s to pick up a mixing desk that he was getting rid of. Apparently it was an old one of Noel Gallagher’s, at least that’s what Goldie said. We turned up at his house and he was standing outside his front door in his underpants. We got out, and I said (probably not being the first or last to do so): ‘That’s not Goldie Hawn!?’ Marcus chuckled, Goldie chose to ignore it and in his best northern accent said: ‘Shall we get bacon butties on f’t’northern lads?’ He invited us in and we were all nattering on in the lounge while his daughter was kicking lumps out of me on the sofa. We had been there for well over an hour and he never did get the bacon butties on… The desk was huge and only just fit in my car. I don’t know much about mixing desks, but I’m sure it allowed Marcus to perfect his craft a bit more. Not content with creating a ruckus on dancefloors, Marcus’s production aspirations were firmly in motion. Alongside ST Files he’d struck up a fruitful studio partnership with tracks on Renegade Hardware, Breakbeat Science, Emotif and the D&B Arena album. In what was a one-time-only release, they explored the convergence of house and broken beat with ‘Taking Over Me’ on Hospital Records. Under their Ill Figure alias, ‘Untouchable’ b/w ‘Style’ on Suburban Base blew up, both sides receiving heavy rotation on BBC Radio 1’s ‘One in the Jungle’ and in the clubs. ‘Style’, with its catchy horns, hiphop vocal and a bassline so wobbly it made jelly look stiff, remains a classic Mancunian wall-slapper. Like the kids carrying Henry Hill’s groceries home for his mother in Goodfellas – the wall-slapping was the ultimate sign of respect. In early 1999, their aim was simple: make a tune to get in Scotty’s record box. What they created became a scene-defining moment. ‘How You Make Me Feel’ was like a shard of light suddenly flashing away in the gloaming, a clarion call for those who wanted to embrace a deeper, more soulful strain of dancefloor D&B. GLENN AI Soon after Kemistry passed away, there was a last minute memorial event at Heaven nightclub. I was a student working with Marcus at Eastern Bloc’s Leeds branch, and he persuaded me to go with him. There was all of this techstep music being played. And we were having this massive chat about how it was such a shame there was nothing with any musicality, soul, vocals, or breakdowns. Afterwards, we were playing records – early Good Looking and Creative Source – back at my parent’s house in Camden, and Marcus said he had an idea. And then two or three days later, he played me an early version of ‘How You Make Me Feel’. I remember it had a different bassline to the final version. Scotty was always his number one to send tracks to, and he snapped it up. It all came from that conversation at Heaven. As darkside and jump-up D&B raged away in the big raves, and ‘sausagefest’ was used to describe the ratio of men to women rather than a celebration of British bangers, ‘HYMMF’ was the antidote. Bringing a hypnotic rolling groove with an acapella from a New York house release by Creative Force, it was immediately picked up by key tastemakers like Fabio who absolutely battered it on his Radio 1 show and at his weekly Swerve sessions in London. As legend would have it, Goldie got down on his knees in a Wayne’s World-esque ‘We’re not worthy’ salute after hearing it. Manchester D&B was having a moment. CALIBRE When I first heard ‘How You Make Me Feel’ it confirmed feelings I had about drum & bass and its capacity for beauty in the dance. I know a lot of producers who use it as a benchmark for quality. Around that time, that tune was a seed. We’ve seen it with other tunes like Shimon & Andy C’s ‘Bodyrock’ where it almost creates a sub-genre. It brought ladies back to the dancefloors too; it was the counter to everyone in Burberry caps. DRS I remember going into the End in London, and Bryan Gee was coming out, and he said, ‘Scotty man, where’s all the girls at?!’ I knew what he meant. A lot of the events were 90-95% male. A couple of months after that, I heard ‘How You Make Me Feel’ by Marcus and ST Files, and I knew this was the tune that the scene needed. The kick and snare were militant, but it had those vocals and chords. It was a reminder to people: you can have vocals in your tunes, it’s not a bad thing! DOC SCOTT I don’t say this lightly – it is one of the most important tracks in drum & bass history. At the time it came out the music was incredibly aggressive and male-centric. In making music, timing counts for a lot. Sometimes an album or a track needed to come out at a specific time. Look at NWA, Wu-Tang or Oasis’s first album – whatever it is. The world just needed that tune at that time. And that’s what it was like with ‘How You Make Me Feel’. HIGH CONTRAST I heard Fabio playing ‘How You Make Me Feel’ on the radio when I was about 19. That was an incredible moment for me. Someone had made this sound that I’d had an inkling for in my head. It was this perfect, beautiful track. I felt like it was the beginning of a new era of melodic, soulful drum & bass. DARREN FUTURE CUT They had one mixing desk, a sampler and a synth. They worked that equipment to the bone. The fact they made tunes like ‘How You Make Me Feel’ and remixes like 4hero’s ‘9×9’ is amazing. The equipment was so basic. That scene-defining moment signalled the start of a movement. Marcus and Files led the way by setting the standard for others to follow. They also had a healthy disregard for a-sides with each 12″ release having two killer cuts that could arguably be the lead single. ‘Love & Happiness’ and ‘Dreamworld’, again on Doc Scott’s 31 Records, reinforced their reputation for mining the deeper end of the spectrum and showcased a sonic palette that saw them raid their record collections to sample Philadelphia’s First Choice and an early Roger Sanchez cut. While they brought a musical maturity missing in a lot of the high-impact but quickly disposable dancefloor tracks at the time, they maintained a clear focus on making music to bust up a dance. MARCUS We build a dancefloor element first, without being cheesy, and then put a musical element on top. The beats and bass – they’ve got to have impact. Next, Goldie got in on the action, snapping up ‘Universe’ and ‘Lose Control’ for his Metalheadz label. ‘Universe’ was the middle ground ST Files talks about. Using a snippet of Vikter Duplaix’s soulful tones from a Masters at Work track, it’s the definition of soul in motion. The flip showed their versatility with a techier, futuristic vibe. It proved a deadly DJ tool. Marcus handing DJ Marky the white label promo of Calibre’s ‘Mr Maverick’ / ‘Highlander’. Soul:ution at Band on the Wall, Manchester, 13 February 2004. (Al Baker) GOLDIE There are branches to this oak tree which we call this beautiful music, drum & bass. Marcus and ST Files established new branches for Metalheadz when releasing ‘Universe’. Alongside their own productions, they’d quickly picked up a reputation for being able to work their magic as remixers. Their reinterpretation of MJ Cole’s silky smooth UK garage cut ‘Be Sincere’ was a major calling card, maintaining the track’s warm and soulful elements and updating it to a D&B tempo. Next came a flurry of requests from some of the scene’s most influential figures. ‘Just A Vision’ for Clayton Hines’ Renegade group had a vocal harmony you could hum along to and still have people calling for the rewind in the hands of DJs like Bryan Gee. UK pioneers 4hero followed: ‘9×9’ and ‘Better Place’ were a dream to mix and showed they were masters of sequencing. Closer to home, Un-Cut’s ‘Midnight’, which thanks to Jenna G’s ability to shine in live settings, was a singalong classic in Manchester long before it became a huge hit for the singer and Future Cut. It received plenty of play at Notting Hill Carnival over a blazingly hot August bank holiday weekend in 2001, ultimately scoring them a big label deal. Marcus, who lived with Darren from Future Cut at the time, and Files delivered a DJ-friendly relick that again showed they could do no wrong. HIGH CONTRAST ‘9×9’ by 4hero, Un-Cut’s ‘Midnight’, MJ Cole’s ‘Be Sincere’… these were all so influential to me and set the gold standard of what drum & bass remixes could be, especially if the song was from a different genre. MARC MAC 4 HERO They did the Solid State ‘Just A Vision Remix’ and it was a massive favourite down at Dollis Hill (where 4hero/Reinforced’s studio was based). I remember after working with Vikter Duplaix and getting to know his vocals, I heard ‘Universe’ and was like, ‘Who’s gone and sampled Vikter like that?’ And some of the guys at Reinforced got hot under the collar until we heard it was Marcus, then everyone was like, ‘Oh cool, he’s dope, that’s all good, calm down.’ Plus the track was fire, really nicely done. I remember they enjoyed doing the ‘9×9 Remix’ because it was different to a lot of things they were doing at the time, i.e. remixing more sample-based music. ‘9×9’ is a composition of live music: string section, upright bass, piano, vocals, Rhodes, analogue synths and drums, which allowed them to get some real depth in the re-arrangement. I wasted no time and asked them to do ‘Better Place’ which I prefer; it’s less polished but still sounds great. They had ‘a sound’ and that’s not easy to do. Great remixers like Masters at Work, Basement Boys, Steve ‘Silk’ Hurley or even the Neptunes all have a sound, a formula for hits, and M.I.S.T. (Marcus Intalex and ST Files) had that.
  8. Impactful moments manifest when music and education collide, which The LIFE Stream Project knows well.

  9. Seriously asking, is there anything this man cannot do?! It’s incredible just how gifted Nick Chicane is. Once famous for his timeless classic ‘Saltwater‘, which is widely considered one of the core tracks of Trance and Dance music of all time, he hasn’t stopped releasing music year after year, for over a quarter of a century. As far as Beatport goes, Nick’s discography has accrued to about 1,000 releases. (!). Chicane’s impressive catalogue offers more than a couple gems, and while ‘Saltwater’ has been a defining record ever since its year of release, 1999, Nick has produced several iconic records throughout his career. Some of his most famous songs include ‘Offshore‘ (1996), ‘Don’t Give Up‘ (2000), ‘Autumn‘ (2002), ‘Poppi‘ (2007), ‘No Ordinary Love‘ (2010), and ‘Times‘ (2016). ‘The Sleepless Year’ With ‘The Sleepless Year’, Chicane once again showcases his unparalleled ability to create immersive soundscapes. This chilled, piano-focused Dance track is the next highlight from his upcoming album, Trampolines, the ninth entry of his long-play offerings. Blending soft-spoken strings with an illuminating piano melody that hits like a breath of fresh air, this track invites listeners to lose themselves in its beauty, whether on the dance floor or in quiet reflection. The best things are not always the most romantic. Such is the case with me discovering this record. I was at my local bakery one early morning, still shaking the pillow off my head, when I received this as a demo. I just lifted the phone to my ear and hit play. I swear, my eyes opened up fully. There’s something magical about this track: it has that sensitivity only Nick can imprint on his pieces. I’ve been obsessed with ‘The Sleepless Year’ ever since, and I’m so happy that it finally came out. Truly.

  10. Ahead of his long-awaited debut album, NOLIMIT, Knock2 is not-so-ironically pushing the limits of his artistry with its lead single, "feel U luv Me." Out now by way of 88rising, the scintillating track was first teased in his performances at HARD Summer and Lollapalooza and quickly became a coveted release amid the furious rise of EDM.com Class of 2023 star. "feel U luv Me" blends high-energy bass house with euphoric vocals, propelling through a the kind of infectiously dynamic chord progression that's become a hallmark of Knock2's singular style. A highlight is the sample of PARTYNEXTDOOR's "TBH," which has been masterfully pitched and interpolated to add a fresh twist that seamlessly integrates into the track's bouncy groove. Knock2 says the track's origins can be traced back to a coffeeshop music production session alongside his ISOKNOCK bandmate, ISOxo. "I was making a new intro for 2023 festivals, sampling my favorite R&B artist, PARTYNEXTDOOR, and that’s how the song came to life," Knock2 said in a press release. "I began playing it live, and it quickly became one of my standout tracks. I'm excited to share it with the world since so many fans already know and love it." Fans can experience feel U luv Me live at upcoming ISOKNOCK gigs in San Diego and San Francisco, where the Coachella alums are expected to perform for over 50,000 attendees. Organized in support of their collaborative album 4EVR, performances will also feature other unreleased songs from Knock2's NOLIMIT album, per the press release.

  11. This one is a beautiful respectful, and powerful tribute. Props. We’re excited to share his with you all. NITTI, the GRAMMY-winning artist, has been on a roll lately, experimenting with a unique blend of Rock and Electronic music. And before you look away, trust us — he actually makes it work. Over the summer, he released viral remixes of iconic Rock and Metal anthems, including Slipknot’s ‘Duality’ and System of a Down’s ‘Chop Suey!’. After experimenting with some Rocktronic tracks, such as ‘Stay Away’ with OUTRAGE and Micah Martin, and ‘White Knuckles’ with BRAYTON, he eventually got to Linkin Park‘s legendary hit, ‘Numb‘. The remix quickly went viral after NITTI shared a video of his friends listening to it, and the demand became so high at one point, we now welcome an official release of this cover on his very own ALT/RAVE label. ‘Numb’ Teaming up with Rock and Metal vocalist Dakota, NITTI created a powerful and emotional rendition of the original ‘Numb’. Dakota’s vocals have often been compared to Chester Bennington’s, adding a special touch to the track. And let me tell you, the vocal range, the timbre, the raspiness, the sentiment, everything’s there. If you needed something special for this weekend, here you go. We’re not gatekeeping this. With Linkin Park’s tour in full motion, this Dance version of ‘Numb’ truly arrives at an opportune time.

  12. Listen to a banging body of work which just came out today. If you’re a fan of high-intensity four-on-the-floors, come this way. After patiently crafting his sound for eight years, Diskull has finally released his debut album, I’m The Beat. This highly anticipated piece showcases a rich blend of Deep House, Bass House, UK Garage, and a plethora of genres translated to a fine degree of Tech House, which all pay homage to Diskull’s musical influences. The release of the album is not only a huge milestone for Diskull himself, but also for his record label, Groovy Bone. The goal of his imprint is to elevate the House music scene in his city, Charlotte, NC, providing a platform for local talent and fostering a community that celebrates creativity, diversity and inclusion. He aims to turn Charlotte into a hub for groundbreaking Electronic music, where artists can thrive and the local scene can experience cutting-edge sounds of all genres. I’m The Beat Eight entire years in the making, Diskull’s most comprehensive release has just come out today. Across eight high-octane tracks, I’m The Beat offers a seamless fusion of pulsating rhythms, immersive basslines, and innovative House elements, all meticulously woven together in Tech House fabric, yet shaped in the different genres he dominates. The album features collaborations with talented artists such as Bianca Gardner, Proppa, Niko The Kid, Megan Hamilton, NO STATIC, and Thatz Hot, adding further depth and variety to the tracks, while also sending a message about crafting timeless gems and unforgettable music as a well-entwined community. “I’m The Beat represents the culmination of eight years of passion and persistence“, Diskull says. “This album is my love letter to the genres that have shaped me, and I’m excited to share this next chapter with everyone. My journey has always been about pushing the envelope of electronic music, creating tracks and memories that resonate not only on the dancefloor but also in the listener’s mind long after the beat drops“. Writer Picks Even though all tracks are pointy and banging — as they should be —, there’s something in ‘All For Myself‘ which stuck with me from the first listen. I’ll call it the “House-groovy-resemblance-ness” it has, for lack of better words. Funnily enough, I think that Frankenstein word I just made up gets my point across. The track scratches my craving for jazzy chords and blending of genres in just the right spot. You can hear early Tchami influences during the break, even earlier House stab chords, warm, rounded synths, and even yesteryear vocal lines, but it’s all, once again, adapted to the contemporary sounds of Tech House. It’s also a very minimalistic track, not a super over-the-top arrangement. It lets every element shine, and I dig it quite a bunch for it. “I’m The Beat represents the culmination of eight years of passion and persistence. This album is my love letter to the genres that have shaped me.” -Diskull Diskull — I’m The Beat Tracklist I’m The Beat featuring Bianca Gardner All For Myself Sync Button with Proppa What It Is featuring Niko the Kid Good Lookin’ featuring Megan Hamilton Can U Keep Up with NO STATIC EDM Bop It Relaxed with Thatz Hot Listen to Diskull‘s brand-new LP I’m The Beat by hitting the ‘Play‘ button on the Spotify player below.

  13. Disgustingly good. No other words do justice. High energy Friday from what we can see. And we’ll add even more fuel to the fire. You may know German legend Paul van Dyk as a pillar of Dance music for his contributions to Trance, but he loves making music in general. Dance music with no last names. That’s what he told us in our interview with him at least! I turned to Electronic music at a time when it was just Electronic music. It wasn’t called Trance, Techno, this and this and this. So as a DJ, you just pick the music that inspired you and that you play. And that’s what I do with VENTURE X. I play things that I think are absolutely worth playing because they’re substantial, they’re good, and not just being stuck to one genre. Paul van Dyk, in conversations with EDMTunes. And on that same line, to celebrate the 100th release on his VANDIT Alternative label, Paul has teamed up with the talented Techno duo The YellowHeads to deliver a powerful new single, ‘Back 2 The FVTR‘. It’s an honour to say this: we had the chance to test it live, spun by the master himself, and we witnessed just how powerful it is. ‘Back 2 The FVTR’ Van Dyk’s and The YellowHeads’ brand-new ‘Back 2 The FVTR’ is a sonic journey that encapsulates the sheer essence of Techno in its most raw form. It’s pure power, but it also comes with some iconic soundscapes we find quite familiar, from a man coming from Berlin, and whose name pictures some of Trance’s defining pieces. This track is, well, as Paul himself wanted, a nod to the classic rave era and a futuristic anthem, all at once. It just speaks volumes about his way of seeing the industry, and the way he’s having fun reinventing and branching his sound towards new spaces. After three decades of experience, whatever genre he produces will be a success. This new track is certainly a case in point.

  14. This one’s for all those looking to kick off the weekend in style. Have a listen to this piece. Alex Kislov, a talented DJ and music producer from Chicago, is on the brink of releasing his debut album, Dream Sequence. As a taste of what’s to come, Kislov has lifted the veil on an entrancing single from the collection, which he’s called ‘Time Stops‘. Kislov’s music has been gaining traction in the industry, with his tracks being played on major radio shows and podcasts. Recently, he also achieved a major milestone by performing at the EVOL AFTERS Electric Forest afterparty. In perhaps the most solid evidence of a future leader of the Dance scene, he’s just come back from the Playa, where he performed multiple sets as part of the Burning Man 2024 roster. ‘Time Stops’ The track is a proper Progressive House belter, standing on the more Peak-Time side of the genre. Strong beats, powerful snare, rhythmic and fast-paced hats, and other ear candy goodness are waiting for the picky ear to discover. Over the base and percussion, lays the core of the song, which is led by warm arpeggios, jumpy basslines, and a hypnotising vocal line which, every now and then, reminds you of the title of the track, and the intention of the haunting atmospheres beneath. The single is indicative of the kind of quality you can expect from the full and upcoming Dream Sequence project. Stunning, evocative, deeply emotional synth lines paired with slick, punchy beats. We sure have our fingers ready to hit Replay a thousand times on the tunes, which promise to be reminiscent of the golden age of Progressive House.

  18. Is it deja vu? Sadly, no, it’s another incredible show forced to be rescheduled due to the impending Hurricane Helene. The Caverns in Tennessee announced today that they had to shut down operations for the Eli Brown takeover this weekend September 27th and 28th. The popular Bristol-based Techno DJ would’ve been the second Techno act this year in the venue. As we remember, Hard Techno High Priestess Sara Landry had her ritualistic takeover in late June. Hurricane Helene Expected to make landfall tonight through Florida, Hurricane Helene is a category 4 storm surge that poses a serious threat to Floridians. As Hurricane Helene continues north, it is expected to go through Tennessee, hence making the venue reschedule the event. Per their social media, tickets will be transferred out to the next date on May 9th 2025. The lineup included Massano, Marie Vaunt, and Boges, for an Arcane Label takeover. Moreover, attendees are able to contact the venue for a refund by October 4th 2024. As disheartening as it is to have amazing shows cancelling and rescheduling left and right, safety will forever come first. Diamonds on Our Mind As one of today’s mainstream/Peak Time Techno biggest figures, Eli Brown has developed a fun and sexy brand. In effect, it has enchanted the masses. His repertoire includes fantastic releases on Adam Beyer’s Drumcode, Insomniac’s Factory 93, and his impactful collaborations with HI-LO, Lilly Palmer, and Layton Giordani. He runs his own label Arcane Music, and consistently tours the world, influencing dancefloors with his tracks. Sadly, this is Brown’s second show that was cancelled in September. The first one was EDC China, dealing with a storm as well. Be not afraid though! Eli will make his return to The Caverns in May. But if you can’t wait to see his shows he will be playing At The Shrine Outdoors in LA with Mind Against. Until then, do not let Hurricane Helene get you, and stay dry everybody!

  19. Out today is the highly anticipated collaboration from visionary producer and composer Aaron Hibell and Melodic Afro innovator Alex Wann, entitled ‘set me free.‘ Released via Astralwerks, the collaboration highlights the unique talents of both artists, merging Hibell’s cinematic, emotive production style with Wann’s signature deep percussive rhythms, creating a powerful, melodic track that is both captivating and forward-thinking. Here’s what Aaron Hibell had to say about the creation of the new track: “My manager sent me the isolated vocal one day that he’d dug out from an old playlist of songs and I initially started a harder trance version. It was okay but it was missing the feeling which I strive for. He suggested I try it in a slightly different style and I made a slower more melodic version, and it was night and day. We instantly knew this was the type of song we wanted on the album but hadn’t yet made. I had become close with Alex Wann after he remixed my song ‘ghost’ and it turned out this was the perfect song for us to collaborate on. He added his grooves and sounds and brought it into another world. When we started playing it live we realized the power of the record“. Alex Wann continues to reflect on the single: “This release is one I have been really excited about for some time now. Myself and Aaron made this back in January and since we started playing it out we’ve been getting a crazy amount of attention on the release. It’s not something either of us saw coming as we are both from such different worlds musically“. “Maybe that’s what people are finding exciting, a cross-over from the Afro-House and Trance scene. I’ve been using this track to close all my sets this summer so I am excited to get it out into the world.” -Alex Wann The Build-Up To ‘set me free’ This release not only marks an exciting collaboration between two promising talents, but also serves as one of the official soundtracks for this year’s Ultra Music Festival Aftermovie, a fitting placement for a track of this magnitude. Aaron Hibell hit a massive career milestone and scored the entire aftermovie for the iconic festival where he included more released and unreleased tracks to come. You can watch the full Ultra Music Festival Aftermovie below. Several artists have already been playing ‘set me free’ within their sets, including RÜFÜS DU SOL and Adriatique. This collaboration with Alex Wann further solidifies Aaron Hibell’s status as an artist to watch in the scene, blending the duo’s deep understanding of emotion and melody into a track that stands apart in today’s electronic landscape. Stay tuned for more music and updates from both artists as they individually continue to shape the sound of the future.

  22. Today, award-winning artist and producer Ben Böhmer shares his highly anticipated third studio album, Bloom. The 11-track LP, which brings his innate skill and passion for songwriting and composing to the foreground, is out now via Ninja Tune. Ben has delivered Bloom as a confident reassertion of his improvisational origins as a songwriter. Despite the success of over 1 billion streams, one of the most-viewed live electronic sets on YouTube (34M+ views), and performing over 200 times in 2022, Ben’s talent as a musician has been compartmentalized, in a way, until now. Having developed his piano-playing talent from a young age, Ben can craft deeply emotive music equipped with just a piano, a microphone, and his computer. By opening himself up, Ben has earned the trust of and received stellar performances from collaborators such as indie pop icon Lykke Li, synth-pop duo Oh Wonder, and more. The songs on Bloom reach far outside the pre-fabricated boxes he’s been put into as an artist. While Ben’s explorations of new genres and tempos have garnered the support of indie tastemakers like Pitchfork, Line of Best Fit, and XLR8R, a steadfast thread of his signature melancholy electronica runs through the entire tracklist. From the very first piano notes of the introductory track “Martin,” Ben’s melodies are the stars of the show, whether in orbit with vocals by The Blaze’s Enfant Sauvage on “Evermore” or rooted by grounding dancefloor rhythms on “Rust.” “The Sun,” the project’s final single perfectly encapsulates the feeling of rebirth throughout Bloom. Featuring alt/dance-pop duo Oh Wonder’s Josephine Vander West, Ben toes the line between his established sound and his sophisticated instincts as a composer. Empowering, heartfelt lyrics compliment the instrumental with messages of overcoming hardship and emerging into power and enlightenment. Bloom Tracklist 1. Martin 2. Hiding (feat Lykke Li) 3. Best Life (feat JOHNAH) 4. Memory Cassettes 5. Beautiful (feat Malou) 6. Faithless (feat Erin LeCount) 7. Rust 8. Evermore (feat Enfant Sauvage) 9. Rain (feat Max Milner) 10. The Sun (feat Oh Wonder) 11. Blossoms Ben is fresh off several major performances, including festivals such as Sonar by Night and a closing set at Lollapalooza, and served as direct support for ODESZA’s stadium tour at The Gorge and Madison Square Garden & more. He’ll round out his North American tour with a stop at Portola before heading to Australia, where he’ll perform in music halls across Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne. Then, he’ll head back to Europe for a string of fall shows, including a stop at the Great Hall of Alexandra Palace. Ben’s music and live performances have earned him widespread acclaim from fans and tastemakers alike. In 2023, he completed the biggest-ever North American live touring run while reaching 4 million monthly Spotify listeners and accumulating over 1.3M social followers across all platforms. His Cercle set has surpassed 34 million views and is now one of the top 10 most viewed electronic music sets of all time on YouTube. He’s shared festival stage bills with the likes of Caribou, Four Tet, Bicep, Jamie xx, and Amelie Lens, and in 2022, launched Portraet, his four-night residency at the open-air Ibiza club Cova Santa, enlisting Barry Can’t Swim, HAAi, Sofia Kourtesis and more to play alongside him.

  23. Armin van Buuren, the legendary Trance producer also known for being a great admirer of the Electronic and Ambient music legend, the late Vangelis, surprises us today with a re-masterization of the iconic ‘Pulstar‘. This dynamic version has all the respect that this masterpiece deserves, simultaneously encapsulating the spirit of ambition and the drive to conquer the challenges. “Music is more than art, and it’s the main code of the universe” is one of the most powerful sentences by one of the most prodigious producers and composers in the world, Vangelis, who captured the mystic essence of the universe with Albedo 0:39, one of the best Electronic music albums in History. We can listen to the original version of ‘Pulstar’ from this great work. This is a loop with a 20-second melody sounding over and over again for more than 5 minutes, but it managed to be a masterpiece in all its splendor. This particular song along with others from the same album captivated children and adults both in the now classic program “Cosmos” hosted by Carl Sagan and in other scientific, news, and even sports programs. One of those people amazed by the considered “sound of the universe” was one now known as one of the greatest DJs and producers in history: Armin van Buuren. Armin van Buuren – ‘Pulstar’ If we delve into the Dutchman’s history, we will discover that he is a great fan of the late Greek composer, indeed we can listen to the influence of Vangelis on tracks such as ‘Communication’, ‘Sail’, and all the Gaia Stuff, to be more specific: the Moons of Jupiter album, released on 2019. The King of Trance has always shown himself to be a fan of space themes and considers the “space composer” as one of his greatest influences, and partly the reason why he is dedicated to music today. In 2024, he decided to make a remaster of this song. This re-work perfectly preserves the original essence of ‘Pulstar’ but, with the addition of this producer’s characteristic Trance sound, a very euphoric and thunderous one that strengthens the meaning of the original song, giving the power of a pulsar we can capture with our astronomical study devices in the most remote places of the universe. Pulsating with energy, euphoria, and uplifting melodies, ‘Pulstar‘ will possibly become a Dutch anthem, uniting the best of New Age Ambient music and Trance. The track encapsulates the creative spark and euphoria in the moment of listening to the original version and a classic theme of Electronic music, offering a glimpse into the unique chemistry of these iconic artists. It seems that this track follows the same narrative driven by the DJ since Feel Again, seeing Armin’s personal reconnection with music, it showcases music’s unifying power, inviting listeners to celebrate life, recognize the light in others, and reconnect on dance floors. If you want to be a part of this travel through the origins of trance music, you can listen to this track below!
