Electronic music also scored a gold this time in France, from the hand of two beloved locals. French Electronic duo and Dance icon Justice closed the largest sports event in style this time, as they provided an extended eighteen-minute musical spectacle at the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympics on Sunday evening. A collection of their most celebrated tracks, including ‘Genesis‘, ‘Love S.O.S.‘, and ‘The End‘, formed the soundtrack as the 2024 Olympic athletes made their final entrance into the Stade de France and the Olympic flame was passed to the next host city, Los Angeles. ‘The End‘, a collaboration with Thundercat, is a standout track from the duo’s latest album — and comeback piece —, Hyperdrama, released in April of this year. Marking their return to the scene after an eight-year hiatus, the LP was received with praise and all-round positive reviews. Following their debut at Coachella in April, Justice have embarked on a worldwide tour, culminating in a headline performance at London’s Field Day later this month, on 24 August to be precise. The Ceremony The Olympic closing ceremony, masterminded by artistic director Thomas Jolly, showcased a captivating array of French musical talent. Alongside Justice, the event featured the infectious rhythms of Electro Pop band Phoenix, the ethereal soundscapes of Air, and the innovative beats of DJ/producer Kavinsky. Additionally, singer Yseult delivered a powerful rendition of ‘My Way’, originally a French chanson reimagined in English for Frank Sinatra. Following the line of the French half of the ceremony, the handover to the forthcoming Olympic host city, Los Angeles, featured performances from iconic American artists. Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish, and Snoop Dogg took to the stage, embodying the spirit of California. The handover ceremony reached its climax with quite the moment, as actor Tom Cruise made a dramatic entrance, descending into the Stade de France by rappel and subsequently making a daring escape with the Olympic flag on a motorcycle. Have a look at the highlights of the ceremony, and witness Justice’s off-screen marvel, right below. Are you a producer and you’d like to see your tracks on our page?

It turns out tons of viewers only knew "Nightcall" as "that song Ryan Gosling listens to in Drive. During the closing ceremony at the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics, the French rock band Phoenix welcomed Kavinsky onstage for a performance of his seminal 2010 song "Nightcall" alongside Angèle. While the track never reached the top of the charts, its inclusion in the cult classic film Drive propelled it into mainstream consciousness back in 2011. The timeless track is now breaking Shazam records after leading the charge of the most Shazamed minute in the app's history, an Apple representative tells EDM.com. Apple acquired the music identification app in September 2018 for an estimated $400 million. "Nightcall" also broke the record for the most Shazamed song in a single day, per Apple. France, Mexico and the US were the top three countries searching for the track during the closing ceremony. It beat out Phoenix's "Lisztomania" and "If I Ever Feel Better," which also experienced a swell of searches in the same period. The previous holder of that record did not hold the title for very long. Interestingly enough, the most Shazamed song in a single day prior was Cerrone's "Supernature," which happened during the Paris 2024 Olympics opening ceremony on July 26th. You can check out the full performance of "Nightcall" by Kavinsky, Phoenix and Angèle below. View the original article to see embedded media.

It turns out begging Porter Robinson to return to his Worlds-era sound works after all—it just took a decade. In honor of the tenth anniversary of Robinson's breakout album, he has unearthed and released a track that didn't make the cut back in 2014. Weeks after the release of his third album SMILE! :D, Robinson shared a tweet from 2020 revealing that he tried to include an additional interlude on Worlds, but didn't submit the track in time. He's now delivered "Hollowheart," a new collaboration with Amy Millan, who also appears on the album's opening track, "Divinity." "Hollowheart" begins slowly with gentle, organic production layered beneath Millan's vocals, which are distorted in a way that sounds like they're coming from an old video game console. After some dramatic piano strikes, angelic strings come through without the retro distortion of the rest of the track, making them sound crystalline and pure. View the original article to see embedded media. Seeing as the song was expected to be included on the tracklist over a decade ago, Robinson told a fan he can't remember where he initially placed it in the Worlds tracklist but if he were arranging it today, it would be nestled between "Fresh Static Snow" and "Polygon Dust." i don’t actually remember sadly, but today i would slot it after Fresh Static Snow https://t.co/5URjHPFD1i — porter robinson (@porterrobinson) August 12, 2024 In addition to the release of "Hollowheart," Robinson revealed two new vinyl pressings for fans to purchase. The first is a "10th Anniversary" edition of Worlds on a holographic vinyl and the other is a purple vinyl with the sounds of the album's bespoke live show from the debut of Second Sky Festival back in 2019. Porter Robinson's Worlds 10th Anniversary and Worlds Live vinyl are available for pre-order here.

In the quiet spaces where memories linger and emotions softly entwine, Ben Böhmer’s latest single, "Rust," emerges as a tender embrace. Böhmer's latest gem from his forthcoming album Bloom envelops us in a world where every note feels like a gentle caress, every rhythm a heartbeat close to the skin. As the latest single from his forthcoming album, "Rust" stands as a poignant counterpoint to the bold strides of Böhmer's recent releases, "Hiding" featuring Lykke Li and "Best Life" with JONAH. While those tracks charted new territories for Böhmer, "Rust" brings him back to the comforting embrace of the sound that first captivated his fans. Opening with mellow, understated rhythms that pulse like a distant memory, "Rust" slowly unfurls with a grace that feels both fragile and profound. Dusting shakers flutter in the background, their subtle presence like whispers on the wind as Böhmer's use of bright, warm synths creates an atmosphere of soft light. Meanwhile, the lyrics, playful yet introspective, explore the longing for touch and the deep-seated need for connection—a theme that resonates throughout what we've come to know of the album thus far. En evocative journey, "Rust" marks a return to the sound that brought him to international acclaim, but it also hints at the broader, more expansive palette he has in store with Bloom. Fans will soon be able to hear the full album for themselves on September 27th, but in the meantime, check out "Rust" below.

What was meant to be a creative collaboration under the Balearic sun turned into a nightmare for Clean Bandit. The British dance music trio was in Ibiza filming a music video for their new single "Cry Baby," a collaboration with David Guetta and Anne-Marie, when their celebration was cut abruptly short. While the group was out to dinner, thieves reportedly broke into Clean Bandit's hotel room and stole laptops, cameras and cash totaling €40,000 before crowbarring the room's window to make their escape. The robbery left the band not only devastated but also fearful of staying in the same location overnight, per The Sun. Luckily, the footage for "Cry Baby" had already been safely transported back to London. However, the stolen gear and cash still represent a significant loss for the band, who are now hoping to recoup some of the damages through insurance. Unfortunately, Clean Bandit’s experience is not an isolated incident on the White Isle. Just a few months earlier, fellow British DJ and producer Franky Wah also fell victim to thieves during his own Ibiza residency. His entire music collection, including a laptop loaded with unreleased music, was stolen from his car. Despite offering a reward and rallying the support of fans and fellow artists like Carl Cox, Wah has yet to recover his belongings. The rise in such thefts is a sobering reminder of the risks artists face, even in places as idyllic as Ibiza. For Clean Bandit, the experience has been a costly interruption ahead of their new album, their first in six years, set for release in 2025. Still, the group remains undeterred, channeling their energy into more new music. Check out the music video for "Cry Baby" below.

Australian artist Harry Suttor, aka Late Night Therapy, is back with RELAX, a single that says it all. If you hear closely, you’ll notice that the sounds are warm and clear, but also organic. This is because the entire elements of the tune, from the percussions to the vocals, have been recorded live. Not a single sound is electronically generated through some sort of DAW or plugin. Everything is natural! This willingness to pursue the “real sound” is something we didn’t expect in 2024, but we really endorse it. Bringing the music creation back to humans is something we really think of. For me personally as an artist I’ve always felt that the most important thing is to create something unique and authentic to my own experience. This has been my artistic journey, a voyage of self-discovery, finding my voice, my sound and my gift to those losing themselves on the dance-floor. For my new single RELAX I have recorded every instrument and my vocal live so that I could know for certain that it came authentically from me. RELAX is an introspective late night dance-floor journey for you to lose yourself in, I hope you enjoy! – Late Night Teraphy RELAX starts with an organic and tribal beat. The chill harmonies create a strong vibe of well-being and comfort. The tune introduces strong piano lines and eclectic melodies for an incredible mix of emotions. Late Night Terapy’s RELAX is out now. Have a listen to Late Night Terapy’s latest singles like When you’re gone and Spinning as well.

*Featured Cover Photo Credit: Skyler Greene (skygreene.com) / Portola Music Festival Last year’s edition of Portola Music Festival at San Francisco‘s Pier 80 was a great success as it hosted the likes of Eric Prydz, Dom Dolla, Nelly Furtado, Charlotte De Witte, Carl Cox, and Skrillex. Due to last year’s success, the 2024 edition of Portola Music Festival is set to happen and it will return for the weekend of Sept. 28-29, once again at Pier 80. In fact, the organizers of the festival, renowned San Francisco-based events promoter Goldenvoice, confirmed its return in a letter they sent to residents of Alameda, a small city near Oakland and across the Bay from San Francisco. The letter affirms Portola Music Festival’s commitment to lower noise levels for the 2024 edition, especially since last year’s edition has caused numerous complaints from some of the Alameda residents. The noise levels sent to Alameda coming from Pier 80 in last year’s edition were very significant that even the local government of Alameda issued a request to the San Francisco Entertainment Commission that it should either discontinue the festival or relocate it to an alternate venue where it will not “impact the Alameda residents”. Regardless of what may happen during and after the 2024 edition of Portola Music Festival, it will definitely be an awesome festival with cool amenities and a spectacular lineup. On May 13th, the Portola Music Festival organizers officially announced the lineup for the 2024 edition and just like last year, the lineup is totally awesome. Lineup for the 2024 edition of Portola Music Festival For Saturday, September 28th, fans will get to see the likes of RÜFÜS DU SOL, Bicep, Mall Grab, Four Tet, Tycho, Jamie xx and Gesaffelstein shining their talents through the daytime and nighttime skies over Pier 80. Furthermore, on Sunday, September 29th, stars such as Honey Dijon, Sammy Virji, Jersey, Justice, Boys Noize b2b VTSS, horsegiirL, Sara Landry, Tinlicker, and LP Giobbi and Chase & Status will continue to ensure fans attending the festival remain fulfilled with all that excellent music flowing through the air. Check out the official lineup poster at the bottom of this article. As a result of the festival’s commitment to lower noise levels for this year’s upcoming edition, each festival day will start at 01:00 p.m. and end at 11:00 p.m. However, for that Sunday, all outdoor music will conclude at 10:45 p.m., which gives enough time for festival attendees to beat the rush as they leave the festival grounds. Photo Credit: Portola Festival/ALIVE Coverage Passes for this year’s festival As of the moment of this writing, all of the GA and VIP passes for the 2024 edition of Portola Music Festival are sold out. However, fans can still join the official Portola waitlist where they can have access to the passes (if and when they become available). One piece of information regarding this waitlist is that the payment plans are not available for fans to utilize on it. Other valuable information to know about in preparation for the festival For anyone who plans to attend this year’s festival, the FAQ page has great and valuable information to know about what to expect before and after entering festival grounds. Additionally, the ‘Get Here Get Out’ page has info about how the fans can get to the festival, as well as the other transportation options that they can use such as BART and Muni.

It may be the middle of August, but Charli XCX's "brat summer" has kept the season red-hot—under the guise of a lurid green shade. Its likely you've heard the phrase by now, what with the phrase and its signature green palette taking over social media platforms and signage worldwide. But what exactly is "brat summer"? Deriving from her sixth studio album BRAT, the term was characterized by Charli as someone who rocks "a pack of cigs, a Bic lighter and a strappy white top with no bra" on the BBC's Sidetracked podcast. Along with the album's brazen messages and intersection of hyperpop and house music, "brat summer" essentially encourages all to live a colorful and wildly unapologetic life, partying as much as they so please. But fans are not the only ones taking to BRAT. Electronic music producers are taking "brat summer" to another level by producing their own remixes of the album's tracks en masse. Read on to discover five of the best. Charli XCX - Von dutch (Skream and Benga Remix)Dubstep icons Skream and Benga reimagined "Von dutch" with a vintage banger, heavy in its bass and vocal distortion. View the original article to see embedded media. Charli XCX - Spring Breakers (hallow UKG Edit) Not long after releasing BRAT, Charli XCX came out with the album's deluxe edition, brat and it's the same but there's three more songs so it's not, which includes "Spring Breakers." Hallow then revamped the track with a frenetic UK garage edit. View the original article to see embedded media. Charli XCX - Talk Talk (Dreeks Remix)Dialing up the tempo, Brighton-based producer Dreeks put an ethereal spin on "Talk talk" in his remix.

Today is the 10th anniversary of the release of Porter Robinson’s debut album, Worlds. Of course, Porter Robinson stays true to his word. He has finally released the “lost” 13th track that unfortunately never made it onto Worlds. We all know of Worlds, one of the most insanely influential and genre-defying albums ever released. One of the most pivotal decisions he ever made in his career. It truly needs no other introduction. It’s sensational. Four years ago, out of the blue, Porter tweeted that he uploaded another track that he created in 2012, ‘Shepherdess / She Heals Everything‘, for the 6th anniversary. Along with that, he explained that he would release “Hollowheart“, a track that sadly didn’t make it onto Worlds. However, it’s here. I’ll let you listen. Enjoy the moment. Vocals are by the wonderful, Amy Millan, who also assisted on “Divinity”. It’s been fun seeing fans look for Easter eggs with “Hollowheart”. Many have noticed the similarities between it and Porter’s unreleased “A Sound for Lonely People” and “OSTTT“. It’s a great trip down memory lane dissecting it all. Additionally, Porter is celebrating the anniversary of his acclaimed debut album Worlds with two special edition vinyl releases. The Worlds 10th Anniversary Edition features a double vinyl with a holographic cover and includes a new bonus track. The second release, Worlds Live at Second Sky 2019, marks the first official release of the audio from Porter’s renowned 2019 Second Sky festival show. This double vinyl captures the last live performance (maybe it’ll happen again – who knows!). Order your vinyl here and relive the magic once again. August 12th – forever will be one of the best days in electronic music history. Thank you, Porter, for the memories.

Sam Blacky has teamed up with the producer/DJ duo Local Singles for their latest single “Hotsteppa,” a mesmerizing Afrohouse-influenced track that blends both artists’ unique sonic signatures. Local Singles bring their rhythmic expertise to the table, crafting a euphoric tune that builds with an air of mystery while Sam Blacky, known for her incorporation of global sounds brings afrohouse touches to the table. Her contribution fuses deep bass undertones with tribal instrumentals and vocals, resulting in a genuine international sound. “Hotsteppa” is infectious, manifesting a sunrise groove session deep in the jungle. It’s no wonder the track has already received support from industry leaders, with Diplo and Francis Mercier debuting it at Burning Man last year. The single follows Local Singles’ recent track “Fever” on BLOND:ISH’s label and Sam Blacky’s collaboration “Ronaldinho” with Niniola. The collaboration came about after a serendipitous near-miss at a Keinemusik show in Brooklyn Mirage. Sam Blacky explains, “We laughed so hard when we saw each other’s stories, and I couldn’t believe we missed each other that night. We decided we had to collaborate soon to memorize that funny moment and show our love of the tribal and Afrohouse sound, and this is how ‘Hotsteppa’ was born.” Local Singles added, “Getting ‘Hotsteppa’ out was a labor of love. From finding the right collaborator in Sam Blacky, to finding the right vocalist, and last but not least, finding the right label in Spinnin’ Deep. It’s taken over a year, but we can finally say… here comes the ‘Hotsteppa.'” The post A year since it debuted at Burning Man, Local Singles and Sam Blacky release ‘Hotsteppa’ appeared first on Dancing Astronaut.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has announced temporary closures on the Black Rock Playa, home to the annual Burning Man festival. These closures are designed to safeguard public resources and ensure public safety in the area. The closures will be implemented in two phases over a period of approximately 66 days each year through fiscal year 2027. The first phase will affect a smaller area, while the second phase will cover a significantly larger portion of the playa. However, it’s important to note that the remaining 67% of the playa will remain open for dispersed recreational use. Closure Details Phase 1: Covers approximately 9,941 acres and lasts 66 days. Phase 2: Covers approximately 51,149 acres and lasts 20 days. Closure Dates The specific dates for the closures will vary each year: YearPhase 1Phase 22024July 25 – September 28August 19 – September 72025July 24 – September 27August 18 – September 62026July 30 – October 3August 24 – September 122027July 29 – October 2August 23 – September 11 The BLM has emphasized that these temporary closures are necessary to protect the delicate ecosystem of the Black Rock Desert. This will also allow to ensure the safety of visitors. While the closures may impact recreational activities during certain periods, the majority of the playa will remain accessible to the public. Impact on Burning Man The BLM has emphasized that the majority of the playa will remain open for public use. However, the temporary closures will undoubtedly impact the Burning Man festival. Logistical Challenges: The event organizers will need to adapt their plans to accommodate the restricted areas. This may involve adjustments to camp layouts, infrastructure, and transportation. Reduced Space: The closures will limit the available space for the festival, potentially affecting attendee capacity and the overall experience. Increased Costs: Implementing changes to accommodate the closures is likely to increase costs for the event organizers. Environmental Concerns: The festival has faced criticism for its impact on the environment. The closures could be seen as a step towards mitigating these concerns and promoting sustainable practices. It’s important to note that the Burning Man organization has a strong track record of working collaboratively with the BLM to ensure the event’s sustainability and minimize its impact on the environment.
