Marking its 17th edition in 2024, Les Plages Électroniques once again shone as a pristine Mediterranean dance music experience–and arguably Cannes' very best. Taking place from August 16-18, the festival's 2024 edition enchanted roughly 60,000 attendees over three days and nights. With a stellar lineup, 15 hours of nonstop music from 2pm until 5am and a festival site taken out of a movie set, there was nothing not to love. Torterolo Valentin Les Plages Électroniques takes place at a unique venue in the heart of Cannes, offering 360° views of the Mediterranean across an impressive seven stages. The radiant festival includes a variety of stages, like a daytime indoor club and one on the rooftop of the iconic Palais des Festivals. Attendees seeking some sun found themselves beachside on the Mainstage, which was soundtracked by some of dance music’s very best. Alex Martin Les Plages Électroniques' lineup was as impressive as ever this year, featuring headlining DJ sets from by oris Brejcha, FISHER, Kaytranada, Timmy Trumpet, Paul Kalkbrenner and Lost Frequencies, as well as special performances from French rappers Gazo and SCH. The diverse lineup also included Creeds, Stella Bossi, Apashe and EDM.com Class of 2024 star Sara Landry, among many others. The organizers of Les Plages Électroniques have already announced next year’s edition, which returns to Cannes from August 8-10, 2025.

The latest release from Mincer, “Mansion”, captures the emotional essence of finding home in unexpected places. Forced to leave his home country due to an economic crisis, Mincer found solace and inspiration in a new connection that brought comfort and joy. The production of “Mansion” was a six-month journey, pieced together in various locations from coffee shops to airports, reflecting the diverse experiences and emotions behind the song. With its uplifting energy and themes of love and positivity, “Mansion” stands out as one of Mincer’s most essential tracks to date. Introduce yourself and your project My name is Mincer and I’m a 27-year-old musician and producer with a Master’s in Software & Multimedia Engineering from Beirut, Lebanon. I’ve always loved electronic music, but I truly fell in love with it after watching the 2012 Tomorrowland aftermovie. Seeing how happy people were and the impact music could have gave me goosebumps. That’s when I knew this was what I wanted to do. I’m also one of the founding engineers at Fundbot, a Lebanese Fintech company. I began working on ‘Mansion’ in 2023 during a work trip to Istanbul, Turkey. ‘Mansion’ is one of many progressive house tracks I’m currently working on. It talks about finding home in unexpected places which is something I have been experiencing since 2020 after the tragic explosion in Beirut which forced me to leave the country. The goal of this project is to revive the joyful, euphoric sound of classic progressive house while adding a modern twist to appeal to a new audience. Explain what musical genre fits you best Good old progressive house from the golden age of EDM back in 2012-2013. Were you connected with music from a young age and did anyone inspire you? I began my musical journey at the age of seven at the National Conservatory of Lebanon. Initially, I disliked the instrument my father chose for me, which led to a brief hiatus from music. After a few years, I rediscovered my passion through electronic music, inspired by artists like Hardwell, Swedish House Mafia, Avicii, and Alesso. What kickstarted your music career? I never originally thought of music as a career; I was just doing it because I loved it. Then I started getting some local gigs, especially at university events, and people loved it. Seeing how happy it made them was priceless. And now, here we are! Tell us more about your sound and how it’s evolved over time When I first started, everything I made sounded like Trance, but it wasn’t great haha. After moving to Germany and learning more about production from different artists, my sound began to shift towards a Deadmau5-inspired style and progressive house, which you can hear in my album ‘SMFONIKA.’ A few years later, after a lot of experimentation, mistakes, and confusion, my sound evolved into what it is today, the sound I had been aiming for since the beginning, inspired by 2012-2013 Progressive House. You can clearly hear this in ‘Paradise,’ ‘Nirvana,’ and my latest single, ‘Mansion.’ Any words you want to share to encourage other artists or producers? Just keep going and keep adapting. There will be times when you feel like you understand everything, and other times when it feels like you don’t understand anything at all. It’s all part of the learning process. Whenever you feel like giving up, just pull up a track you made a few years ago and listen to it. You’ll notice your progress, and it will motivate you to keep going. How do you nurture your industry relationships? I try to place myself in environments where industry professionals are present. For example, DJLAB in Lebanon started as a small DJ store with a relaxed area where artists would frequently hang out. You’d be surprised at the amazing people you can meet there. Another effective way I connect with the industry is by collaborating with local artists. Is there anyone you’d like to thank that’s been crucial to your journey? Mostly, I want to thank my sister and friends for their unwavering support since day one, especially Moe. He’s also an artist, and we began this journey together at university, continuing to work on music together to this day. I also want to express my gratitude to DJLAB in Beirut for being like a second home and for providing countless opportunities throughout this journey. Name 3 songs you love and what they mean to you + Youtube links My all-time favorite Swedish House Mafia song is ‘Don’t You Worry Child.’ I can’t fully explain why. Maybe it’s the story, maybe it’s because it’s a musical masterpiece, or perhaps it’s just nostalgia and good memories. It gives me goosebumps every time. “Tom Odell’s ‘Another Love.’ The original is already full of emotion and really hits home, but when I heard the remix in one of Tomorrowland’s aftermovies, it made it ten times better. Alesso’s ‘Years’ brings back so many great memories from my teenage years. It’s a feel-good song full of hope, and every time I’m feeling down, this is my go-to. What’s your favourite piece of studio equipment or software? When it comes to VSTs, Serum is my go-to virtual synthesiser for every project. For hardware, it’s definitely the MicroFreak by Arturia. That thing is a piece of art, so portable, affordable, and it produces amazing sounds. It’s been a core piece in every performance of mine for the past year. Name your favourite club or festival and how it makes you feel Tomorrowland. Even though I’ve never been, watching the after movies always gives me goosebumps. It gives me hope for a better world when I see all those flags and everyone so happy and peaceful, just enjoying the music. Playing there would be a dream come true. It’s definitely on my bucket list. Name an outlandish rider request? I haven’t encountered many outlandish requests yet, but I did receive a request for both a flamethrower and a fog cannon from one of the acts at a low-budget festival I organized at university where we barely managed to get an LED screen for the performers. There was a good five seconds of silence before one of the organizers responded with a bewildered, ‘What?’ Favourite clubbing memory and who or what did it involve? Seeing Monolink in Istanbul was magical. I experienced it with a special someone the night before my flight back to Lebanon, after spending nearly a year and a half in Turkey. I even rescheduled my flight just to make sure we could see Monolink together and it was definitely worth it. What famous quote represents you best? “If someone else has done it then I can do it too. If no one has then I can be the first. If I can do it so can you” If you could play at any venue, where would it be and why? The Tomorrowland Main Stage is the ultimate dream for every electronic music producer, and it’s mine as well. I can only imagine how incredible it would feel to share my music and message with so many people who share the same passion for electronic music. It would be an honor to offer them a unique experience, taking them on a journey through my music and hopefully forming an emotional connection along the way. Music is….. (explain more) Music is like magic, an international language that everyone understands without needing to learn. Its impact on people is truly magical. I firmly believe that music has the power to heal, transform our moods, and uplift our spirits. Even after all these years, the more I explore music, the more curious I become to delve deeper. It has enriched my life in countless ways, and it would be an honor to bring that same joy and healing to others. One song you really couldn’t live without and why? You’ve probably guessed it by now… It’s ‘Don’t You Worry Child’ by Swedish House Mafia. It was one of the first tracks that made me realise electronic music was something I wanted to pursue for the rest of my life. Every time I listen to it, I still get goosebumps. The song also holds special significance for me because it was the last release by Swedish House Mafia before they disbanded in March 2013. Namedrop your favourite 5 artists or DJs (past or present) Above & Beyond Swedish House Mafia Monolink Deadmau5 Avicii What was your first music memory and how did it fuel your fire? As a Lebanese who grew up in the ‘90s, my first music memory is undeniably Fairuz. She’s more than just a singer; she’s a Lebanese icon. If there’s one thing all Lebanese people can agree on, it’s the timelessness of Fairuz. My parents used to play her music every morning when driving me and my sister to school, and those melodies became a core memory for us. While her style is far from the electronic music I’m passionate about today, Fairuz’s music is deeply ingrained in my cultural roots. Although I didn’t draw direct inspiration from her, I felt a strong connection to her songs and decided to put my own spin on them. That’s why I released a couple of Lo-fi remixes of her classics ‘Ana La Habibi’ and ‘Kifak Enta.’ Tell us more about your plans for the future I’m definitely planning to stick with Progressive House for a while, and I have a few new originals lined up for release this year and next. In the long run, I aim to push the boundaries of Progressive House by integrating even more advanced technology into my music and performances, creating immersive experiences that resonate with audiences on a deeper level, especially AI. I’m a bit of a tech geek myself. I also hope to collaborate with other artists and producers who share my vision to blend our styles and create something truly unique and innovative. I will definitely continue mentoring young artists, sharing the knowledge and experience I’ve gained over the years to help them navigate the challenges of the music industry and develop their own unique sound. Beyond the music itself, I aspire to contribute to the evolution of the genre, and hopefully influence the next generation of producers to keep the spirit of Progressive House alive. Any worldly advice you’d like to share? Don’t rush art. Nowadays, everyone seems obsessed with becoming famous overnight, and it’s taking the soul out of music. I’ve met so many people searching for shortcuts to ‘make it’ in the industry, and they’re missing out. The feeling you get when you find the perfect melody with the right chords, or when you release a track and people tell you how it makes them feel, that’s priceless.

MPH stuns with Refraction, his debut album, out now via Night Bass. In the sonic labyrinth of Refraction, the UK producer shatters genre boundaries like a prism splitting light. It's a shapeshifting beast, prowling the shadowy realms between garage's swagger, jungle's frenetic pulse and the quaking rumble of 140 dubstep. To that end, Refraction isn't just a display of technical skill; it's a journey through the evolution of UK dance music, reimagined through one producer's unique lens. The album stands as a testament to MPH's versatility and his deep understanding of the genres from which he draws, leading to a must-listen for fans of electronic music who crave innovation and experimentation. Highlights are everywhere in Refraction, which doesn't just push envelopes—it shreds them. In "My Mind," he beautifully blends brisk UK garage with soulful vocals, creating a haunting track that leaves listeners questioning where their minds end and the music begins. That walk-on-air delirium continues in "Lights On," a collaboration with Eloise Keeble and Night Bass founder AC Slater, before crashing back to earth with a blistering bass house drop. Elsewhere, MPH stuns with "Funk Master," one of the album's undeniable standouts. A stunning descent into 140 dubstep, it's a sonic rollercoaster built by a demented architect, plunging us through hairpin turns of writhing bass and warped, cinematic textures. The same goes for "Crowd Rolling," a jungle banger where loungey keys slink through frenetic drum patterns. Listen to Refraction below and find the new album on streaming platforms here.

As the pulsating energy of Tomorrowland 2024 swirled around us, I found myself in a quiet corner, face-to-face with one of electronic music’s most intriguing rising stars. Might Delete Later, with her warm smile and eyes that sparkled with creativity, immediately put me at ease. There was something refreshingly genuine about her presence – a quality that, I would soon learn, infuses every aspect of her artistry. As Might Delete Later began to share her story, I was struck by the beautiful simplicity of her concept: turning voicemails from strangers into electronic music that pulses with human emotion. It’s an idea born from the isolation of the pandemic, yet it has blossomed into something that connects people in ways I never imagined possible. As we chatted, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of wonder. Here was an artist who had found a way to make electronic music – often criticized for its detachment – into something deeply personal and touching. Her enthusiasm was contagious, and I found myself leaning in, eager to catch every word about her creative process. Might Delete Later full interview at Tomorrowland 2024 So I have to be honest, I didn’t know you before. But I was stunned in a good way by your production and your idea of music. You are like no other artists: you put out songs but you kind of engage with the public. So I wanted to ask how it all started, how you thought about this idea, and why electronic music in general, and not, maybe, another kind of type of music? Well, the thing is, I used to do a lot of what is called top lining. So I worked with Patrick Topping and those kind of guys. I’m still doing it, but a little bit less now especially during Covid. I felt really alone in the studio during that time and at some point I thought, you know what? I have to change something; I don’t want to make music alone anymore. This was the time when you could not go out. And so what I did was there was this book closet on our streets. And one day I put a sticky note, a yellow sticky note, just saying, “Hey, here’s a phone number call it if you want”. I went home and had no idea that anything was going to happen. Next thing I knew, a neighbor was calling: “So my apartment was flooded”, and then another girl said: “I’m not sure if I’m feeling it today. I’m feeling bad” so we started talking. These conversations somehow clicked and we came to an idea. A voicemail is something that we’ve forgotten about. Who uses voicemail these days? And I bought this single-use SIM card inserted into an old Nokia. And from then onwards. There’s always a Nokia in every story [laughing] And it’s so reliable. And yeah, right now I receive about 10 to 15 voicemails per day. Which is wild. Amazing as I think the fact that you interact with people on a personal level, that you can hear their voice it’s I thing that you won’t see normally. Yeah, sometimes I listen to those voicemails and I get goosebumps and I think “Did someone just say this openly?” Some people might draw comparisons between your work and that of Fred Again, who’s become quite famous recently, because of the voicemail in the songs. But you mentioned that you started during COVID-19, which seems to predate Fred’s rise to prominence. That’s interesting timing. Given your unique approach, how would you describe your musical genre? I’ve noticed elements of UK garage, tech house, and house in your music. I would say it’s very much house, but also very pop. Pop because every song evolves around the voicemail or the voicemail mixed with my vocals. But ultimately I just make whatever happens in my head. And mostly it is house and pop. But that’s not always the case; lately, I got so many, so many touchy voicemails that I had to make something slower from it. The main thing is that it’s mostly ends up being danceable. Something in between. You mentioned before that you were in the studio, so, are you kind of a hardware girl or more a software girl? Do you like to use a synthesizer or something like that? I’ve lately been a bit overwhelmed with the teenage engineering gear. So good. They’ve also been really nice to help me out with some awesome gear. So I think it’s in between. I also really love that I can take the voicemails with me on a bench in Amsterdam and just sit and do everything on software, but when you play some old prophet synths or something like that, you feel it. It’s really warm (the sound – editor’s note). Plus on the stage, we’re playing live with the modular. We like improvisation so a set is never the same. There are always different voicemails. There’s always a different modular. Now, let’s talk about the industry. We know that the electronic music environment is kind of male-oriented and there are a lot of male people on the top. How do you live being a female artist in a male-powered industry? To be honest, I have to. I have to say that sometimes it’s been a bit rough, especially because sometimes, especially when I was a top liner, you would enter a studio and the first thing they tell you is: “Oh, so you’re the singer?” I also am a singer, but I also produce. I always wanted to have a hold of all my tracks from start to finish, and that’s what I do. And still, it’s especially true when you go to the Amsterdam Dance Event, for instance. It’s a weird thing that there are so few women producers out there, but there are a couple, and they are amazing. I think it’s growing and we’re getting there, but it’s a rough place out there in terms of just getting the support you need. It’s a big competition. But I’m proud that there are so many amazing artists, especially at this festival (Tomorrowland) as well, coming out. And what about your production routine? I’ve seen you released an album but a lot of singles as well. What was the drive to it? What was the idea behind writing an album instead of another single? Well, first of all, it’s my own self-confidence. It’s just, I need to get some kind of a border where I can stop. But I feel that sometimes the voicemails that I get are in some kind of a time frame. They are often times related to what’s happening in the world. What is happening in those specific countries or in those specific languages? And I feel that a collection of singles makes like a complete package for that period in time. And so right now I’m actually working towards an album as well. I feel there is a set, there’s a theme, and that just needs to be put out and needs to be attached to a certain period so that later in 50 years, when I listen to this, I’m like “yep, that’s where we were. That’s how we felt”. Then that’s, and you’re going to play Tomorrowland in a couple of hours so what can we expect? So you told me before there are some new songs. Yes, there are. There are a lot of new songs. And actually, there’s one song that I made two days ago. I asked people on my social media to leave a voicemail if they would possibly want to end up being heard on the stage. And there might have been some that made it to my set. And also, I know for a fact that that person will be in the audience. You’ll have a live reaction out of it Yeah, exactly. Actually, I know his name because of Instagram. He told me he was going to be there. His name is Will. So big up for Will. And that’s actually why I’m making this whole music for that. There will be someone sitting at a cafe or being at that festival who’s going to be like: “Wait a second.” “It’s me”. Yeah, that’s fantastic. And last question. So as you receive voice mail, you put out this paper card that turns out to be environmentally friendly. You thought about 360 degrees on the whole process, including the fact that this thing could have an impact on the environment and how to tackle that. The thing is, we try to do the best we can. We have our own merch and we have these bags that we give only to those people who decide to order the flyers and merch around the world, and our flyers are made from biodegradable paper as well. And even the sticky stuff is made from recycled paper. The thought behind it is thanks to my art director Hime, who’s sitting here. He helps me enormously to make sure that we can pull this off together. But we really want to make sure that if we do make something, it’s the safest for the planet we can think of. It doesn’t mean that it’s easier, it’s a lot harder and a lot more expensive. But we just try to put out things that have the least impact that we at this stage can. Well, wonderful. That’s amazing. I hope you will have a great time at Tomorrowland. And we will be there for sure. As our conversation drew to a close, the anticipation for Might Delete Later’s upcoming set was palpable. The idea that someone in the audience might suddenly hear their own voice, transformed into music, sent a shiver of excitement down my spine. It was a reminder of the magic that can happen when art and life intersect in unexpected ways. Make sure to follow Might Delete Later on Instagram and all their social media.

It’s time for some real hard techno, shall we? Belocca and Heerhorst join forces for an exciting new release on Factory 93, ‘Flipping’. The tune, which is a mix of hypnotic beats and nonstop percussions, is another massive tune on Insomniac’s techno-driven imprint. The beat is fast, mysterious, and dark. The vocal perfectly merges with the techno vibes creating a narcotic feeling. The synth on the drop generates the right depth to bring Flipping on the bigger festivals. The breakdown slows down things, creating a sense of anticipation and relaxation before another heavy-hitting drop. This opposition of sounds, from cinematic and dreamy harmonies on the breakdown and eerie and obscure drums on the drop creates a unique feeling you can’t easily find in other tunes. Belocca and Heerhorst collaboration is out now on Factory 93 and it is called ‘Flipping’. Factory 93 will host stages on the major festivals worldwide in the next few weeks. They will take over Sonus 2024 as well as Decibel Open Air. The post Belocca and Heerhorst team up for ‘Flipping’ appeared first on The Groove Cartel.

For anyone that’s not familiar with your background, can you fill us in on how you got started playing the trumpet, and how that transitioned into dance music? I’ve been playing the trumpet for as long as I can remember—since I was big enough to hold it. My father taught me, just as his father taught him. It’s in our blood, a family tradition. I’m blessed to have inherited this magical instrument, and it means the world to me. The fact that I’ve built a career performing with it around the world still blows my mind, and I’m forever grateful for that. Transitioning into dance music was as simple as me jamming in my bedroom as a teenager. I’d listen to Daft Punk on the radio, start playing along with the melodies, and I thought, “Damn, this actually sounds pretty good.” I started experimenting from there, and the rest, as they say, is history. Congrats on your recent performance at Tomorrowland where you closed out mainstage during weekend 1, can you describe the emotions you felt and what you were thinking during the set? F*cking epic!! It’s been a dream of mine for a decade. The first time I went to Tomorrowland, I was just in the crowd, looking up at Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike on the main stage. I told myself I didn’t know what it would take, but one day, that would be me up there. It was a real moment where I had to pinch myself to believe it was all happening. After my set, I was physically shaking from the emotion. It felt like ten years of hard work and dreams were released all at once. It’s a moment I’ll never forget. Your live shows are legendary for their energy. What goes into creating such an electrifying atmosphere? I’ve got the greatest job in the world, so the least I can do is give it everything I’ve got when I’m on stage. The energy and love I feel from everyone out there remind me every day to pour my heart into every performance and never let anyone down. People spend a lot of money, save up, and even travel across countries to see me, so I never want to disappoint them. When I’m on stage, I become the monster they paid to see—and I absolutely love it. You will be performing at S2O at the Brooklyn Mirage Labor day weekend. This will be the first time the water festival takes place in the U.S., do you have anything special prepared for your performance? Absolutely, and it’s been a dream of mine to play Mirage too. It’s my first time as well as the first time for this S20. It’s the craziest party on Thailand – and that place is wild! I’ve got some tricks up my sleeve for this one, but you’ll have to come along to see what’s in store. Tell us about your new collaboration ‘Drumroll Please’ with GRAVEDGER. How was it working with him and what’s the story behind the track? He’s a beast! I love everything he does—it’s pure madness, and that’s exactly what I’m all about when I’m on stage. This track was all about creating a moment that I could play at every single show, capturing everything we both represent when we’re performing. I’m so happy with how it turned out. I play it in every set, and it goes absolutely mental, even if you’ve never heard it before. I love it. What do you have in store for the rest of the year music/touring wise? This summer has been wild. I’ve closed the main stage at so many of my favorite festivals in countries all over the world, and each show just keeps getting crazier. Our whole team has nailed it with the entire production, but as we head towards the end of the year, we’ll be focusing more on my own branded events, FREAKSHOW. Everything’s a little extra—extra SFX, extra pyro, extra production—and the madness never stops. I can’t f*cking wait!! The next FREAKSHOW in the states is at The Torch in LA. Such an iconic venue. It’s gonna be sickkk! The music industry can be demanding. How do you prioritize your mental health and well-being? Be as present as possible in every moment. It’s really demanding, especially with the travel. As I’m doing this interview, it’s my seventh show in nine days across seven different countries, and that can be tough. It’s especially hard on my team, who give everything they’ve got every single day to ensure I can do what I do on stage. When I have time off, I love spending it with friends and family as much as possible. I eat well, I go to the gym, I tell the people around me I love them, and I feel their love. That goes a long way to keep you grounded in the middle of all this chaos. Lastly, do you have a message you want to tell your fans. I F*CKING LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

Mura Masa has always been ahead of the creative curve, but with his new album, the tenured producer is consciously forging a path inspired by his newfound independence. "Feels very different to be releasing a record this time around," Mura Masa said of Curve 1. "Being independent affords so much more control and connection to the work. I wanted to make something no frills, no cynical music industry narrative, no manipulative backstory. Just music that I think is really great and that people can gather around." Following 2022's Demon Time LP, Masa has returned with a collection of tracks that, in typical fashion, challenge the conventional limits of dance music. The album arrives with a handful of singles that have already proven themselves on the dancefloor, including "We Are Making Out," "Still" and "FLY," each of which reflect some of the many dynamic sides of his eclectic sound. The album opens with "Wherever I Want," a track that immediately sets the tone for the broader project's free-spirited flare. Frenetic vocal chops slice through the air, syncopated in a way that feels spontaneous yet perfectly orchestrated. As the breaks-style drums kick in, the arrangement takes off with a heart-racing pace, the perfect blend of hip-hop and dance music that makes for an exhilarating ride. Meanwhile, "We Are Making Out" takes the album in a darker, more sultry direction. With distorted vocal effects that echo through gritty basslines, the track creates an atmosphere thick with tension. In contrast, "Shuf (Adore You)," is a standout bursting with lightheartedness as playful, fluttery vocals dance over a backdrop of bright melodies and driving drums, leading to an organically uplifting moment while showcasing Masa's range. The album’s closer, "FLY," is a fitting end to a record that celebrates freedom and creativity. With yearning vocals from Cherish and modern, club-dominating synths, the track encapsulates the adventurous spirit of Curve 1. It doubles as a love letter to the fans who continue to support his career journey, especially as the producer traverses a critical creative juncture. Listen to Curve 1 below and find the new album on streaming services here.

If you've ever considered what the force of magnets sound like, Stacco has the answer. This innovative instrument turns magnetic attraction and repulsion into a matrix of electronic sounds that's as unpredictable as it would seem. At its core, the innovative device utilizes an interface embedded with magnetometers to attract and repel magnetic spheres, turning their movements into sound. As these spheres dance and shift across the instrument’s surface, Stacco captures the changes in magnetic fields before translating them into audible form. What sets Stacco apart is its ability to merge human creativity with the spontaneous nature of magnetic interactions. It allows for a balance of user control while maintaining the understandably unexpected outcomes that come from fluctuating magnetic forces. Moreover, Stacco has been designed to work hand-in-hand with neural synthesis models. By navigating through its intricate control parameters, musicians can explore a vast range of sonic spaces, allowing them to create music that varies between structured and entirely exploratory. To inform the users' musical journey using the device, it comes with graphical scores, which function as a map to the potential sounds the neural synthesizer can produce. In a recent performance titled "Magnetologues" at Zurich's Institute for Computer Music and Sound Technology, two Stacco instruments were used to showcase their versatility in a live setting. The result was a performance that offers a stereo-rendered glimpse into the infinite possibilities of the device's sound. Whether it’s creating sharp, distorted tones or long, drawn-out waves, Stacco proves that music isn’t just about notes and rhythms—sometimes, it's about harnessing the unseen forces of nature to push the boundaries of creativity. Check out a demonstration of the instrument below, courtesy of Giacomo Lepri's YouTube channel.

Of The Trees is about to take his fans on an unforgettable journey through enchanted soundscapes and stage designs as he's poised to embark on his largest headlining tour yet, "Moonglade."

With a dazzling LED castle as the foundation of his live performance setup and a lineup that includes a slew of promising support acts, the forthcoming tour is shaping up to be a must-see for fans of bass music's experimental leanings. One of the most notable aspects of "Moonglade" is the inclusion of the producer's signature LED castle wall, which debuted at his sold-out Red Rocks show in 2023. The stunning piece of stagecraft transforms Of The Trees' live environment into a captivating visual spectacle and has rapidly become a fan-favorite at the intersection of electronic music and visual storytelling. As a member of the EDM.com Class of 2024, Of The Trees' rise has been marked by a commitment to pushing the boundaries of bass music, both in the studio and on stage.

As both an icon and a trailblazer in the world of electronic dance music, Kaskade has some fascinating stories and insights from his three decades in the music industry. Just before his headlining "Redux" set at Nashville's Deep Tropics festival, we caught up with the electronic music superstar, whose real name is Ryan Raddon, for an interview on the current state of the dance music scene. He's humbly snacking on Sour Patch Kids in his trailer as we sit down to chat. Raddon has long-positioned himself at the vanguard of live performance, a reputation that reached new heights in February after his historic performance as the Super Bowl's first in-game DJ. With so much major experience under his belt, we were curious to hear his thoughts about what makes a great music festival. "There’s a lot of good festivals out there, and only a handful of great festivals," he tells us. "I think stage is a big deal, location and ambiance. I mean, that already is half the battle. If you’re sitting at downtown and you have the skyline, like Lollapalooza Chicago, every picture you see from there, you’re like, 'This is insane!' That already is ahead. So you need top-level production and a great location." When traveling for festivals and shows, the chart-topping producer says he always seeks out local food to get a taste of a city's authentic culture. One thing that only his tour manager knows about him is that there's certain hotels he simply can't stand while traveling. Kaskade's tour manager laughs in agreement off-camera. Kaskade.Brian Rapaport/EDM.com When it comes to the music, Raddon recounts experiences of being thrown out of establishments back in the day for blaring his tracks. Now, performing at major festivals and high-flying Las Vegas DJ residencies, he doesn't have to worry much about the volume. "I’ve had so many noise complaints throughout the years," Raddon says. "I've had to move before, I’ve been kicked out of apartments and I’ve been kicked out of studio spaces." But that wasn't the craziest thing to happen. "In college, I was throwing a massive party," he recalls. "We had so many people, it was on the second floor, and we cracked the floor... our ceiling was going to cave in." Kaskade.c/o Press Once Kaskade's career started to skyrocket, he says he didn't go crazy with lavish purchases or big shopping sprees—although he did go on to buy "a nice car." He does, however, vividly remember the moment he collected his first big paycheck from music. "I remember I laid the two checks out on my kitchen counter and I took a picture of them," he says. "I was like, 'Oh my gosh, I’m actually making money doing this!' When I did one of my biggest Vegas deals, I signed the lease shortly after that for my studio in Los Angeles, in Santa Monica. That was a big deal because it was a very big purchase, and not really like me, but it’s been awesome. I’ve been there for seven years and I love it." We were also curious to hear what Kaskade would do for work, had he not followed his path as a DJ. "If I wasn’t out performing every weekend, I’d be writing and producing music for other people, which I did a little bit before my career took off," he explains. "I’d still be doing something music-related." Kaskade's "Redux" set at Deep Tropics was the unquestioned highlight of Deep Tropics' first day. The dazzling Nashville festival took place August 16-17.

A luminary of sound design, Virtual Riot's name has always been synonymous with his virtuosic dedication to the craft of electronic music production. But in a recent podcast conversation, he showed a different side of himself, one that’s just as inspiring as his otherworldly tracks. Speaking with SlamCast, Virtual Riot opened up about the transformative impact of sobriety on his life and career, sharing his journey from living in Los Angeles to teaching advanced music production and embracing a cleaner lifestyle. Living in LA for eight years, Virtual Riot admits he had every excuse to party to excess. But everything changed after a stint in rehab, which was the turning point, he says, that led him to sobriety. His first performance after this life-altering decision was at the 2023 Electric Forest festival, where he stepped onstage with a renewed sense of purpose and clarity. Since then, he has embraced a sober lifestyle, something he says has not dampened his creativity in the slightest. In fact, Virtual Riot notes that staying sober has strengthened his sense of discipline and helped him connect more deeply with his craft. He likens going sober as a DJ to exposure therapy because you can't control what others are doing at your shows, but it provides a situational mechanism for building your own sense of discipline. "I'd say that sometimes, Virtual Riot says he's also found support in a familiar cohort of high-profile DJs who have embraced sobriety, like Ghastly, Barely Alive and Steve Aoki, providing him with a professional network that understands his journey. He emphasized the importance of self-awareness and personal choice when it comes to sobriety. "Everyone has enough conscience—enough of a moral compass to know if what you're doing is good for you or not," he said. "It's just about listening to that."

There has been another sad loss to the Brooklyn dance community this past month. Last year, 2 men were found dead in a creek near the Brooklyn Mirage. Both men were 27 years old. This summer’s tragedy is eerily similar to two other deaths and many are wondering if they are all connected. Damani Alexander, 30, attended the Knockdown Center on July 28, but his body was found in the waters of Newtown Creek two days later, according to his mother, Desiree Nicholson. Details about Alexander’s final hours remain unclear. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner has yet to determine the cause of death, and the NYPD is still investigating how and when he ended up in the creek. Nicholson shared that detectives initially informed her that her son likely didn’t drown, as there were no signs of trauma on his body. The family’s shock is palpable as they struggle to understand what led to Alexander’s death. Nicholson also revealed that her son had confided in a friend on July 28, expressing fear for his safety before he was found dead. Investigators returned his wallet, but his phone remains missing. Alexander’s death comes a year after two other young men, John Castic and Karl Clemente, were also found dead in Newtown Creek, just over a month apart. Both had disappeared after leaving the Brooklyn Mirage. Clemente’s death was ruled an accidental drowning, while Castic’s was also determined to be a drowning, with no signs of foul play, according to his father. These tragic incidents have sparked discussions about the safety of nightlife venues around Newtown Creek. The creek’s surrounding area, particularly in East Williamsburg and Queens, is primarily industrial, with limited foot traffic at night, aside from those attending nightlife venues.

A settlement has been reached in Los Angeles between the State of California and leading ticket reseller StubHub. When the COVID-19 pandemic started, and events were canceled, San Francisco based StubHub changed its FanProtect Guarantee. Instead of providing full cash refunds, as advertised at the time, it began offering credits that could be used for future events. Thus, California Department of Justice investigation found the San Francisco-based company failed to issue timely refunds for canceled events during the pandemic, according to a statement by the state attorney general’s office. “By failing to issue full cash refunds for canceled events during the pandemic, StubHub not only violated its advertised policy but also violated the trust of its consumers,” — Attorney General Bonta Following the start of the investigation, StubHub reversed course and began issuing cash refunds in May 2021, distributing $20 million to 45,000 California consumers since. The settlement includes restitution and a $295,000 penalty. It also requires StubHub to abide by the UCL and other consumer protection laws, including not violating California laws specific to event ticket sales.

Barkin has unleashed his inner growl with his latest track. Fittingly titled ‘BARK’ the Bass House record takes you on a journey towards unleashing your inner fury. The New York-based artist has been bringing the heat this year and ‘BARK’ is no different. The hip-hop drum beat in the beginning is a sign of things to come later in the track. As tension and energy begins to rise we are thrown into a ferocious first drop that will be stuck in your head. The massive synth and bass lead the way with pulsating drums throughout. The track stays interesting with a full hip-hop break. You will not be able to hold yourself back here. Little and subtle dog references keep the rap verse exciting.

Forget Tinder—Rich DietZ prove the dancefloor is still cupid's favorite hunting ground with their new single, "Getting Hot." Sweat-slicked bodies dancing under strobing lights, a sea of anonymous faces until, boom—eyes lock. With its infectious house rhythm and DietZ's sultry vocals, "Getting Hot" transports you right to that moment, capturing the electric feeling when strangers become soulmates on the dancefloor. It's the soundtrack to that delicious moment when "maybe" becomes "definitely," and the world suddenly narrows to a single, intoxicating focus. Out now via Azureon Select, this audio aphrodisiac finds the duo at their best: producing tech house bangers designed to make you move and spark connection. The sensual slink of the song's central lyrical grenade makes that mission a reality: "I came here to party, you came here to dance / We should get together, I think we got a chance." Evoking lust and possibility, the lyrics paint a vivid picture of two silhouettes gravitating towards each other, inhibitions melting away with every shared move. Meanwhile, synths sizzle like skin on skin on the drop, where you can practically taste the tension as it builds through DietZ's fiery production. "Getting Hot" dropped ahead of a massive weekend for Rich DietZ. They DJed as direct support to Pickle at Tempe's famed Sunbar club on Friday, August 23rd before throwing down at the beloved pool party series, Splash Down Arizona, and its official afterparty.

They're now gearing up for a high-profile performance at Breakaway Music Festival's Carolina edition, which takes over the Charlotte Motor Speedway September 27-28.
