  2. London-based, tech-house DJ and producer PAWSA has announced his biggest UK headline performance to date with PAWSA In The Park – All Day Long, a huge outdoor show happening at London’s Gunnersbury Park on Friday 8 August 2025, with more acts to be announced. Sign up here for pre-sale access by 12PM on Tuesday 26 November. Pre-sales begin at 10AM on Wednesday 27 November. Tickets go on general sale at 10AM on Friday 29 November via www.ticketmaster.co.uk. A name that has emerged to become one of the scene’s most-loved DJs and producers, PAWSA remains an individual whose passion and focus remains solely on the music. An artist forever in the ascendancy, the Solid Grooves Records co-founder continues to deliver a never-ending arsenal of curated, dancefloor-ready cuts of his unmistakable sound. His signature sound – inventive tech house with an old-school vibe – is decisively made for the dancefloor, and as a DJ, he lays down carefully curated and dynamic sets spanning genres, decades, and styles. More recently his unique approach has been celebrated, gracing the cover of DJ Mag, featuring in their Alternative Top 100 DJ’s list and winning Best Producer in their Best of British Awards. Add to the mix numerous Beatport #1’s, sold out dates across the world, and Solid Grooves’ esteemed Ibiza residencies going strong since 2016, it’s easy to see why he’s a name that stands apart from the rest. Last week PAWSA released the viral sensation ‘Dirty Cash (Money Talks)’, a reworking of the Adventures of Stevie V classic, which will be a certified crowd pleaser when the DJ takes to the stage at Gunnersbury Park next summer. West London’s Gunnersbury Park has become established as one of the capital’s favourite outdoor venues and will play host to a series of day shows offering an eclectic mix of music genres in August 2025 with more brilliant shows still to be announced.

  4. In a move to reinvigorate the UK nightclub scene, internationally acclaimed DJ and producer James Hype takes action to preserve the culture that shaped his career. Known for dominating global stages, James Hype recently reflected on his roots in nightclubs and the impact they’ve had on his journey, sharing a deeply personal Instagram post that resonated with fans and industry peers alike. “When I was 16, I got a fake ID and started going to nightclubs. By 18, I was DJing in clubs, and for the next 10 years, they gave me the best musical education and life experience ever,” James wrote. However, he also highlighted a stark reality: since 2020, a staggering number of nightclubs have closed. “Me and my manager found that 90% of the clubs I played at in 2020 no longer exist. That hit me hard.” Determined to give back to the community that helped shape him, James Hype and his team embarked on an ambitious UK tour. Focusing on smaller venues and cities most in need of support, the initiative was a bold effort to breathe life into struggling local nightlife scenes and inspire others in the industry to follow suit. Key Highlights of the TourAffordable Tickets: Priced at just £11, the shows were designed to be accessible to as many fans as possible. Top-Tier Production: A 14-person crew delivered high-quality shows, including production and media, entirely free for the venues. Nonstop Performances: The team traveled via tour bus, performing in a different city each night for a week. Viral Content: High-energy performances captured on video quickly gained traction online, sparking a renewed conversation about the future of nightlife.While James acknowledges that the tour alone cannot “save the nightclub scene,” he believes it proves that artists have the power to drive meaningful change. “We showed that artists can have an impact. Who’s next?” he asked, leaving an open challenge to his peers. James Hype’s initiative demonstrates the transformative power of community-driven action. As a leading voice in electronic music, he continues to inspire DJs, fans, and industry professionals to protect and nurture the spaces that foster creativity, connection, and cultural innovation. His efforts serve as a powerful reminder that revitalizing nightlife is not just about music—it’s about preserving the soul of a community.

  6. German electronic producer Fejká marks the first release of his brand-new label imprint, “Coexist,” with “Maara” on November 15th. Complementing with an amazing self-directed live-performance video, his melodic and atmospheric characteristic style sets off a fresh trip combining organic components, ambient techno, and deep house into a very ethereal sound. Featuring the audiovisual polymath performing the song live on a cliff of Gran Canaria with all his instruments, the video signals only the beginning of a larger new chapter and highlights his artistic ability in an amazing context. Maara captures the core of the young Coexist imprint, a label Fejká characterizes by the limitless dichotomy within his music: calm and reflective by day, then bursting with vitality and dynamism by nightfall. Within “Maara,” a mesmerizing plucked melody blends with a powerful bassline, while ethereal piano layers and fractured voice chops progressively give its rhythmic basis life. The core of the piece blossoms in the break section, where angelic strings combine delicate beauty with wild, strong energy—a rare and amazing event on the dancefloor. “Maara” was born following the success of his second studio album Hiraeth when Fejká chose to stop his demanding tour schedule. Seeking comfort in the calm Pacific island of Gran Canaria, where he sank himself into reflection and creativity, he was escaping the terrible German winter. Surrounded by stunning natural settings, “Maara” sets the start of a new chapter with a taste of the ethereal melodies he developed from the island’s pure surroundings.

  13. There’s something uniquely unforgettable about starting the New Year with Martin Garrix. His sets aren’t just music—they’re a journey, a shared experience that stays with you long after the lights go down. For me, it started back in 2018 at Knock Knock Festival, where Martin headlined the countdown. As the fireworks burst in sync with High on Life and the crowd sang, “From the ground up, we’ll touch the sky,” it felt like the perfect way to welcome new beginnings. That night wasn’t just a party—it was magic. Fast forward to 2024, and Martin is set to headline another unforgettable New Year’s Eve, this time at Neon Countdown in Bangkok. It’s not just any performance; it’s a celebration of his incredible year, marked by his triumphant return to the #1 spot on DJ Mag’s Top 100. For fans around the globe, this is the dream: to ring in the New Year with an artist whose music is synonymous with hope, energy, and connection. The Neon Countdown Experience Neon Countdown is more than just a festival—it’s an international hub for EDM lovers. Picture neon lights reflecting off a sea of smiling faces, fans from every corner of the world united by their shared love of music. This isn’t just about the beats; it’s about the connections you make in the crowd, the unspoken camaraderie as you dance shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers who feel like friends. And for those looking to level up their experience, the VVIP Skydeck offers a stunning view of the main stage, premium perks, and an intimate party atmosphere that takes the night to another level. Martin’s Music: The Soundtrack of the Night What makes Martin Garrix’s sets so special is how they turn music into a collective memory. Tracks like High on Life and No Sleep have become anthems of togetherness. As you sing along to “I don’t need no sleep, ‘cause I’m already dreaming,” the line takes on new meaning in the glow of the stage lights. It’s a reminder that some nights—like New Year’s Eve at Neon Countdown—are too good to waste on sleep. And then there’s Higher Ground, a track that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of a Martin Garrix countdown: “You said I’m gonna be alright. As the dawn breaks, the sunlight.” It’s the kind of lyric that hits differently when you’re surrounded by thousands of people, all ready to start fresh and climb to their own higher ground in the year ahead. A Celebration of Martin’s Milestones This year is particularly special, as we not only get to celebrate the New Year but also Martin’s recent achievements. With fresh tracks like Smile and Told You So, he continues to prove why he’s at the top of his game. From headlining the biggest festivals to releasing tracks that consistently dominate the charts, Martin Garrix isn’t just an artist—he’s a phenomenon. Your Invitation to an Unforgettable Night As the clock strikes midnight, Martin’s music will become the soundtrack to one of the most memorable nights of your life. His beats, combined with Neon Countdown’s breathtaking production and the shared energy of the crowd, make for an experience you’ll carry with you long after the final track fades. So why settle for an ordinary New Year’s Eve? Join us at Neon Countdown and witness the magic of Martin Garrix live. Tickets are selling fast, and this is your chance to be part of a night where music, connection, and celebration collide. Get your tickets now, and let’s start 2024 on the highest note possible!

  16. Coachella has revealed the DJs performing in its storied Yuma Tent in 2025. A sanctuary for techno and house music enthusiasts, the Yuma Tent is a place where time bends and the desert sun is forgotten. Its air-conditioned space offers a reprieve from the sweltering heat, but its warehouse-inspired atmosphere—complete with whiplashing strobes and lasers—won't make you sweat any less. Taking the stage in the Yuma next year are Amelie Lens, Vintage Culture, Beltran, Chris Stussy, Damian Lazarus, Eli Brown, Infected Mushroom, Layton Giordani and Tinlicker, among other influential producers. The lineup also features Afro-house breakout AMÉMÉ and techno superstar Indira Paganotto, each of whom were named to the EDM.com Class of 2023. Elsewhere on the Coachella 2025 lineup, fans of the famed Indio festival can find a wellspring of electronic music talent. That includes Zedd, Above & Beyond, Kraftwerk, Keinemusik, Ben Böhmer, Chase & Status, Sara Landry and The Prodigy, among many others.

  17. For underground electronic music aficionados, the Yuma Tent has long been a lighthouse amid the great expanse of Coachella’s musical terrain. The top dance music venue in the desert for 2025 has exceeded itself, assembling a roster that reads like a who’s-who of modern electronic music culture, so bridging the gap between seasoned veterans and emerging stars of the worldwide scene. The Yuma Tent at Coachella 2025 lineup features electronic music artists including Amelie Lens, Vintage Culture, Infected Mushroom, Pete Tong x Ahmed Spins, Mind Against x Massano, AMÉMÉ, Damian Lazarus, HAAi, Indira Paganotto, Moon Boots, Tinlicker, Coco & Breezy, Chris Stussy, Yulia Niko, Klangkuenstler, and more, representing various electronic music subgenres from techno to house. Check the full 2025 Coachella lineup here. Techno Titans on Yuma 2025 lineup Belgian dynamo Amelie Lens is leading the fight; her explosive climb from underground favorite to global techno ambassador is just amazing. Known for her mesmerizing, high-energy shows and heading the powerful EXHALE label, Lens’s presence signals the Yuma Tent’s dedication to real, uncompromising techno. Spanish superstar Indira Paganotto joins the lineup. She brings her own mix of acid-tinged techno and trance influences. Thanks to her recent releases on Nina Kraviz’s Tpikney label and spectacular appearances at big European events, she is among the most fascinating emerging voices in techno. Brazil phenomena Vintage Culture dominates the house music scene, having developed from South American club favorite to worldwide sensation. His unique combination of melodic techno and progressive house has won him a devoted audience and many chart top hits. Through performers like AMÉMÉ, whose African-influenced works have given the genre new vitality, the roster highlights the variety within house music. Coco & Breezy show the ongoing cross-pollination between fashion, culture, and electronic music while also having effectively moved from making eyeglasses for Prince to commanding dancefloors all around. Dutch pair Tinlicker and Moon Boots provides a perfect counterweight to the harder-edged performers for those looking for more emotional, melodic sounds. While Moon Boots provides his own mix of soulful house and nu-disco, Tinlicker‘s progressive house productions on Anjunadeep have become mainstay in sets all over. Combining the former’s knowledge of mesmerizing, emotive techno with the latter’s fresh viewpoint on melodic house and techno, Mind Against and Massano promises to be a standout in joint performance. Electronic music statesman Pete Tong‘s participation alongside Ahmed Spins marks the ideal fusion of old and modern school. Combining Ahmed’s fresh viewpoint with Tong’s decades of experience as BBC Radio 1’s top tastemaker guarantees a session spanning generations of dance music. Including Infected Mushroom gives the lineup an intriguing new angle. The renowned reputation of the Israeli pair in psychedelic trance and their later explorations with rock and electronic fusion forms highlight the Yuma Tent’s readiness to challenge accepted genre limits. The roster also highlights a lot of underground scene acts creating waves. While Klangkuenstler‘s raw, explosive techno has established him a darling in European clubs, Chris Stussy’s deep, groove-laden house has gained him growing respect. Yulia Niko’s nuanced interpretation of minimal house and techno highlights the ongoing life force of these genres. Yuma Tent Coachella 2025 lineup Cultural convergence Most importantly, this roster reflects the genuinely worldwide character of modern electronic music. From African-influenced house (AMÉMÉ) to European techno (Amelie Lens, Indira Paganotto), American house music (Moon Boots) to Brazilian bass culture (Vintage Culture), the Yuma Tent has compiled a roster that shows how powerfully electronic music can transcend geographical and cultural boundaries. Looking ahead The Yuma Tent is ready to provide festival attendees with a thorough survey of modern electronic music’s most fascinating voices as Coachella 2025 draws near. This carefully chosen lineup provides both an appreciation of the scene’s past and an intriguing insight into its future in a time when electronic music is still developing and cross-pollinating at a dizzying rate. To those who know, Coachella’s best-kept secret has always been the Yuma Tent. With this lineup, that secret could at last be revealed, and electronic music lovers all across should celebrate.

  18. VEIL is taking experimental bass music to another level with her debut album, HIGH VOLTAGE, a delightfully disorienting exploration of new sounds and frequencies. The album comes with a meticulous storyline, which is brought to life by its central character, AZAL. Each track takes us deeper into her journey through what VEIL calls "THE HOLLOW," a space where time and reality are bent according to AZAL's will. Beyond the music, VEIL worked alongside 5/9 and Towr Media to translate AZAL’s "voyage" into an entrancing audiovisual show, which she presented at Rezz Rocks VI back in August. View the original article to see embedded media. That voyage kicks off with "RESPAWN," where experimental bass opens a portal that sends you directly to THE HOLLOW with AZAL. "YU" follows, plunging us deep into the universe with our central character through distorted bass that sounds off with the urgency of sirens. Ensuing tracks "MOVE FAST AND BREAK THINGS" (with HerShe) and "BACK BACK" convey AZAL taking THE HOLLOW by storm as emphatic, stomping beats and commanding bass signal a sort of power within the realm that she can use to her advantage. "00:00" then indicates a sharp pivot into hypnotically fluid drum & bass territory. Though relatively gentle, the track maintains an ominous nature, warning us not to settle into the bucket of any one genre. Though seemingly a respite from the chaos, "5.9 [INTERLUDE]" represents "a malware code that infects the system in THE HOLLOW," according to VEIL. It also doubles as a tribute to the graphic team at 5/9, who helped her formulate the album's audiovisual experience. "OMEGA" (with Digital Vagabond) and "EVENT HORIZON" then slowly reintroduce THE HOLLOW, their downtempo beats cultivating a newfound explorative caution that stands out against the album's unabashed fervor. Following re-entry to the realm, "ALL OF EVERYTHING FOR FOREVER" sees a hair-raising voice asking, "Did I create this?" before VEIL uncorks a warped drop. The uptempo "OVERLOAD" follows suit and signals a transformation of THE HOLLOW, which was precipitated by the virus introduced by the album's interlude. It seems, at the end of the journey, that the unfortunate "malware" was an essential ingredient to the album's success. "HIGH VOLTAGE is about embracing creativity without restrictions," VEIL explained. "I wanted each track to represent a different side of my production style and my love for multi-genre experiences, while staying true to the energy and emotion behind the concept of AZAL’s journey. She is traversing a space where she bends reality, and the album’s sound reflects that feeling." Listen to HIGH VOLTAGE below and find the new album on streaming platforms here.

  19. If Eliminate's debut album Get Off The Internet was a wild first step into uncharted territory, his latest offering is a masterful sprint through the very frontier he helped define. With his latest album, 404: Get Off The Internet [Redux], the EDM.com Class of 2021 star transforms the vibrant chaos of its predecessor into a refined, imaginative project that captivates and thrills in equal measure. It hasn't yet been a full year since the release of his original album, but as if booting up a forgotten machine, "404 (Intro)" revs to life with evocative soundscapes. Here, nostalgia seeps through layers of cinematic production, punctuated by the mechanical whirring of a dial-up tone. Turning the intensity up a few notches, it morphs seamlessly into "Thought Experiment," a track that bursts to life with rapid-fire trap synths. The pulse of the album beats particularly strong in "I'M ALREADY A WASTE (Poison Oak)," a bold standout. The track bridges eras as its upbeat drum & bass cadence races alongside pop-punk vocals that drip with youthful yearning. Eliminate balances nostalgia and innovation with precision, producing a cut that feels familiar while embracing his characteristically otherworldly tones and forward-thinking production tactics. As the album delves deeper, "TWISTED (MOREPWR)" casts a spell of dark allure as acid-tinged arpeggios coil like smoke around a techno beat that radiates with intensity. The track paints a stark, industrial landscape where every flicker of light is met with encroaching shadows. As the project's closer "ESCAPE (Get Off The Internet)" comes to form, it brings with it an ethereal ascent. Shimmering synths ripple across a euphoric arrangement, evoking a sense of freedom and wonder that’s almost gamified in its triumphant beauty. It’s a moment of catharsis, a chance to exhale and reflect on one of the most innovative albums in electronic music this year. Listen to 404: Get Off The Internet [Redux] below.

  20. Great collaborations often emerge when artists are willing to challenge their creative instincts and venture into unfamiliar territory. With Nicky Romero, Timmy Trumpet and GESES joining forces, "Here We Go Again" isn’t simply another addition to the dance music canon, but a testament to what happens when a trifecta of creative talents blend their distinct musical identities into a seamless whole. Out now via Romero's Protocol Recordings, the track marks a uniquely bold departure for each artist. Known for his progressive and electro house mastery, the Dutch producer ventures into the brooding allure of techno with a finesse that feels organic. Trumpet, whose reputation thrives on the intense, high-octane world of hard dance, dials up his melodic sensibilities to craft an infectious and euphoric energy while GESES fearlessly steps into the spotlight alongside these industry titans, proving his prowess through contributions brimming with conviction. The track radiates an irresistible vibrancy, echoing the chaotic, exhilarating rhythms of nightlife itself. Lyrics brimming with escapism and reckless abandon paint a vivid picture of losing yourself in the club's whirlwind, spinning with no thought of where the night might end. By balancing hard dance's intensity with melodic accessibility, "Here We Go Again" embodies a sound primed to make waves beyond its techno origins. While the visceral power of hard dance can sometimes feel polarizing, this polished iteration is primed for wider appeal—especially among U.S. audiences increasingly interested in dance music's underground roots. Listen "Here We Go Again" below and find the new collaboration on streaming services here.

  22. Four years ago today, the world lost i_o, the enigmatic techno visionary whose music felt like whispers from the future. The last song he released before his tragic death was "Castles In The Sky," a radiant reimagination of Ian Van Dahl's trance classic of the same name. With its propulsive kick drums, cascading synths and poignant lyrics, the track encapsulates i_o's rare ability to honor the past while pushing electronic music into bold, uncharted territory. i_o's rendition takes the shimmering, euphoric tone of the original and grounds it in his signature style: futuristic and deeply emotive. The lyrics, steeped in metaphor, evoke a longing for something untouchable, a dream seemingly just out of reach. Though "Castles In The Sky" is a cover, it's anything but derivative. The late producer approached it with reverence for its trance roots while giving it a modern edge. And by transforming the turn-of the-century track, i_o bridged generational tastes in electronic music with striking finesse. View the original article to see embedded media. Looking back, i_o’s broader work feels similarly prophetic. Melodic techno music now reigns supreme in the global dance market, and it’s easy to imagine i_o standing at the forefront of the movement. Tracks like "Castles In The Sky" prove that he wasn’t just an artist of his time—he was an artist ahead of it, crafting music that resonates as deeply today as it did when it first graced our ears. Four years later, it still feels like a call to lose yourself in the moment and dream of worlds beyond the clouds. Revisit the official music video for "Castles In The Sky" below and stream the track here.
