Out today is Ben Böhmer‘s newest single, ‘Hiding,’ a collaboration with award-winning artist Lykke Li. ‘Hiding’ marks the second single on Böhmer’s upcoming studio album, Bloom, out on September 27 via Ninja Tune. An effortless combination of indie, pop, and electronica, ‘Hiding’ is flooded with Ben’s lush pads and triumphant melodies, while Lykke Li’s iconic vocals wash over crisp breakbeats. “It’s a song that I’ve always wanted to write” Ben remarks on the new release. The single continues to forge Ben’s path beyond the pre-fabricated boxes that he’s been put into as an artist, earning the trust of indie royalty such as Lykke Li. A rare feature, ‘Hiding’ is her first original collaboration since 2019. About Lykke Li Throughout her 20+-year career, Li has worked with artists such as Drake, U2, Skrillex, and Mark Ronson, who once called her the “high priestess of heartbreak and sadness.” She’s earned multiple Grammies in Sweden and is among the most heralded names in indie pop by the most trusted names in music, such as Billboard, Pitchfork, NME, and The Guardian. Her music has soundtracked films, including Twilight. About Ben Böhmer Ben is fresh off several major performances, including festivals such as Sonar by Night and Electric Forest, and serving as direct support for ODESZA at The Gorge, BMO Stadium, and Madison Square Garden. Looking ahead, he’ll round out his North American tour with stops at Lollapalooza and Portola before embarking on an Australian tour, 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 3.6 million monthly Spotify listeners. His Cercle set has surpassed 32 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. Following the massive success of his previous records, which notched nearly 1 billion streams, Ben found himself being pulled in a direction that wasn’t him. Life on the road took him away from the things that mattered most to him (200+ shows in 2022). Bloom is a reset, a confident reassertion of his own desires and more improvisational origins. Ben’s composing and songwriting talents extend to the foreground alongside Lykke Li, Oh Wonder, Enfant Sauvage (of the French duo The Blaze), JONAH (who was featured on the previous single ‘Best Life’), and more.

Flume and visual artist Jonathan Zawada are deconstructing the idea of "EDM" for their new art exhibit. This month, the Art Gallery of New South Wales is honoring Australia's live music scene by virtue of Volume, a special series that showcases the visual art and music in the region and beyond. Australian artists Genesis Owusu and Tkay Maidza will represent their country while André 3000 and Kim Gordon will bring the sounds of the U.S. to Sydney. The venture will also feature a special art exhibit from the local future bass pioneer Flume, as well as his longtime collaborator Zawada. Fans may know the latter as the creator of the album art for Flume's Grammy-winning 2016 album Skin and 2019's mixtape Hi This is Flume. A play on the "EDM" acronym, the exhibit is titled "Every Dull Moment" and will see the duo tear down what you'd see and hear at a electronic dance music festival. Attendees will witness lasers, projected visuals and spotlights as if they were in the crowd at one of Flume's shows. Viewers can expect the experience to mutate as concert-grade production and randomized music from Flume will be displayed with no artist onstage and no screaming fans in attendance, giving them the ability to explore the technical layers of the festival experience and appreciate just how much of the magic comes from the people in the crowd. "Staged away from the typical stadium or outdoor field environment, and with no human interaction or live performance, Every dull moment (EDM) is devoid of its original context," reads the exhibit's description. "Instead, Zawada and Flume share a series of fragmented moments that delve into the presence and purpose of the festival form. Vanishing points are dispersed, beats are lost, moving image is momentary and the deconstruction of the EDM experience is all that remains." "Every Dull Moment" will be on display at the Art Gallery of New South Wales until July 21st, 2024. You can learn more about the art exhibit here and watch a preview below.

We’re back for yet another monthly roundup! June gave us a ton of new music from all the near-infinite corners of the Dance polygon. From highly-requested, sought-after IDs to complete surprises, this month had it all. And for that, we’re waving goodbye in style, looking back at the best of the best of EDM. For all that new music shaping the Dance scene and which we had the pleasure to encounter, we’ve decided to make a little recap highlighting those tunes we can’t get out of our heads. So please sit back, put on your best set of headphones, and read on, as we unveil our top tracks of the month of June 2024. 5. Swedish House Mafia feat. Niki & The Grove — Lioness Genre(s): House, UK Garage Release Date: June 7th, 2024 Mood(s): Groovy, Epic To say we were waiting for this one for a while would be an understatement. A year on hold — and publicly delayed —, Sweden’s most famous Dance trio Swedish House Mafia finally released ‘Lioness’ to the world last month. The track showcases the group’s modern sound, blending it seamlessly with the ethereal vocals of Niki & The Dove. It’s a perfect example of their ability to craft music that is both dancefloor-ready and emotionally uplifting. 4. Charlotte de Witte — How You Move Genre(s): Techno (Peak-Time) Release Date: June 20th, 2024 Mood(s): Dark, Energetic For some, she’s a crush. For others, she crushes the dancefloor. To us, it’s both. The Queen of Techno struck back in late June to release quite the belter. ‘How You Move’ is a testament to Charlotte de Witte’s iconic style, proving once again how she’s able to capture the raw essence of Techno, all while leaving a trace and offering a new mould for other artists in the field. With a fusion of pulsating acid and mesmerizing energy, this one’s bound to get you moving. 3. Kasablanca — Terminal Feeling Genre(s): Progressive House, Melodic Techno Release Date: June 7th, 2024 Mood(s): Hands-up, Energetic We’re holding the urge to punch the air to the rhythm as we look back on this track. A staple in their recent live sets all over the world, one of the duo Kasablanca’s most eagerly awaited IDs was released a few weeks ago. ‘Terminal Feeling’ seamlessly marries Progressive House with Indie and live Electronic elements, capturing audiences far and wide with the lines, “It’s a terminal feeling. And you’re the only cure”. Masters of the analogue sound, you’ll love the nod to the 80s in this one. Are you a producer and you want your song featured on EDMTunes? Follow this link right here. 2. John Summit & Kaskade feat. Julia Church – Resonate Genre(s): Techno (Peak-Time) Release Date: June 21st, 2024 Mood(s): Melodic, Energetic When two giants collide, we sit down and stare in awe. When they onboard a magnificent vocalist, we applaud. Or we rave! John Summit, the man of the moment, teamed up with living legend Kaskade to unveil ‘Resonate’, featuring the lovely vocals of Julia Church. The release of this potential summer hit follows up on the success of Summit’s recent release, ‘Go Back’, which we ranked as the #1 Hottest Track of May. Honourable Mentions As every month, there was a ton of new material which, even though didn’t make the cut into our list, shouldn’t be overlooked. This month, many tracks just barely missed the top 5: Hardwell & KAAZE’s iconic Ultra Miami ID ‘Move‘, Dom Dolla’s ‘girl$‘, Martin Garrix & DubVision’s melodic anthem ‘Wherever You Are‘, and Lilly Palmer & Alan Fitzpatrick’s ‘Endless Nights‘ were just a few of them. 1. RÜFÜS DU SOL – Music is Better Genre(s): Deep House, Melodic House Release Date: June 21st, 2024 Mood(s): Playful, Happy So. Good. Nothing like a feel-good, warm and summery singalong to award the gold to. June had a ton of releases, but this one might just be an inch above the rest. RÜFÜS DU SOL returned to the spotlight with this wonderful piece, ‘Music is Better’, their first since their album Surrender — which brought home a Grammy nomination. This is one of those songs that inexplicably get you in a good mood in an instant, and we bet you’ll be hearing it a ton during the Summer days. Car ride anyone? I’m in, pass the aux to blast this one on repeat. Final Words What are your top tunes from last month? Which artists are you most excited about for July? Did we miss any tracks?

Floating Points is delivering on some unfinished business with the release of his new album, Cascade. The announcement of his upcoming album follows in the footsteps of 2019's Crush, a record that was set to dominate dancefloors before the pandemic forced a global halt to live performances. Picking up where he left off, Floating Points is set to continue the saga this fall and is leading the cycle with the project's lead single, "Key103," a full-blown sonic odyssey. A song in three acts, "Key103" begins with metallic, shimmering synths that dance like light on water. Just when we're lulled into an episode of euphoria, the song plunges into a blend of churning basslines, distorted tones and arpeggiated synths, creating a whirlpool of rhythm and sound. Accompanying "Key103" is a breathtaking "Alive Painting" video from Tokyo-based artist Akiko Nakayama. Her visuals play into the track's dynamism and aptly capture the flow of its music, blending colors and movements that mirror its shifting tones. The artwork of Floating Points' "Floating Points' upcoming album, "Cascade."Akiko Nakayama Out now via Ninja Tune, "Key103" is the first to appear from Cascade, which seeks to fuse Floating Points' club roots with his penchant for expansive, experimental music.

Another chapter in the colossal duo of Wooli and Excision is set to unfold, and rising bass music star Tape B is joining the effort. Letting the mammoth project out of the bag, Wooli took to X to share a photo of the three producers ordering sushi to the studio following a session.

His ability to seamlessly traverse the intersection of hip-hop and bass music adds a dynamic edge.

An in-depth investigation by 404 Media has uncovered a sophisticated technological battle between ticket scalpers and major ticketing platforms like Ticketmaster and AXS. The full report, available on the 404 Media website, details how scalpers have managed to circumvent anti-scalping measures on supposedly ‘untransferable’ tickets. The Technology Behind the Tickets The ‘rotating barcode’ systems employed by Ticketmaster and AXS are at the heart of this issue. These systems generate new barcodes every few seconds. This is made to prevent ticket duplication and unauthorized transfers. However, scalpers have reportedly reverse-engineered this technology. This has allowed them to generate valid tickets on their own infrastructure. Security researchers interviewed by 404 Media demonstrated how the ticket-generation process works. One researcher, known pseudonymously as Conduition, explained that the system operates similarly to two-factor authentication codes. Essentially, Ticketmaster shares a unique token with the ticket buyer. This token, combined with the current time, allows for the generation of valid barcodes – Conduition told 404 Media. The Legal Battle The scale of this practice came to light through a lawsuit filed by AXS in California. The concert giant accuses several companies of creating “counterfeit” tickets by “illicitly accessing and then mimicking, emulating, or copying tickets from the AXS Platform.” However, the investigation suggests that many of these tickets are not counterfeit in the traditional sense. Instead, they are often genuine tickets but have been regenerated on separate systems. This method effectively removes the transfer restrictions imposed by the original ticketing platforms. Several services have emerged to facilitate this process for brokers. These platforms operate largely in the shadows. According to industry insiders who spoke to 404 Media, some are sold as part of larger ticket management software packages. Others are standalone services marketed through word-of-mouth. These services allow brokers to generate tickets on their own websites or apps. Then, they can then be shared with customers through secondary market platforms. Impact on Consumers For concertgoers, this has led to confusion and concern. Many fans report purchasing tickets through unfamiliar platforms, only to worry about their legitimacy. However, in most cases, these tickets appear to work as intended. One Blink-182 fan reported on Reddit: The tickets were legit. Secure.tickets is a real thing. Similar sentiments were echoed on various fan forums for artists like Fred Again.. and The Killers. The Broader Implications and Technical Insights This technological cat-and-mouse game highlights larger issues within the ticketing industry. Critics argue that the restrictions on ticket transfers are less about preventing scalping. They are more about maintaining control over the secondary market. Conduition, in their blog post, suggested that: SafeTix makes it harder for people to resell tickets outside of TicketMaster’s closed, high-margin ticket-resale marketplace, where they make a boatload of money by buying low and selling high to customers with no alternative. David Pokora, an engineering director at cybersecurity research firm Trail of Bits, corroborated Conduition’s findings. After examining an ‘untransferable‘ ticket, Pokora confirmed to 404 Media that the system remains vulnerable to the methods described by Conduition. Essentially you can think of this as there being base information, plus the current time stamp – Pokora explained – And with that base information and the time, you can always generate a valid QR code. Industry Response Both Ticketmaster and AXS declined to comment on the 404 Media investigation. The lawsuit filed by AXS suggests that the company is struggling to identify all the parties involved in these ticket transfer services. Conduition suggested to 404 Media that ticketing companies could support “scam-free third-party ticket resale and delivery platforms”. This could be made possible by documenting their ticket QR code cryptography and providing APIs for verification. But they intentionally choose not to do so, and then they act all surprised-Pikachu when 3rd party resale scams proliferate, – Conduition said. – They’re opting to play legal whack-a-mole with scammers instead of fixing the problem directly with better technology, because they make more money as a resale monopoly than as an open and secure ecosystem. The 404 Media investigation sheds light on the complex interplay of technology, commerce, and consumer rights in the modern ticketing industry. Readers interested in the full details of this investigation are encouraged to visit the 404 Media website for the complete report.

Mark Knight is a legend in the house music scene. He’s teamed up with James Hurr to make what looks like it will be one of the hottest club songs of the summer. ‘You Take Me Higher’ is their new tune, out on Toolroom Records. Knight has had a lot of awesome high-profile collaborations in the past few months. You may remember his works with Green Velvet and Darius Syrossian, two big names in the business. Knight and Hurr looked back at house music history. This is how they came up with You Take Me Higher. They used a vocal sample from Sandy Mercer. They kept the original soul of the song intact revisiting it in a modern setting. Mark Knight and James Hurr layered it over a groove that mixes disco and house styles. The end result is said to be a lively, upbeat song that sounds perfect for summer festivals. This partnership seems to show what each artist does best: make music that pays tribute to the genre’s roots while also moving it forward. When summer comes around, this song will probably be played on sound systems at clubs and events all over the world.

Tomorrowland has unveiled the full timetable for both 2024 weekends. It’s time to plan your festival experience. With more than 800 artists over the three days, we know that the task is not as simple as it seems. This is why we have tried to build something that, hopefully, will help everyone figure it out. We know that there are already a hundred types of planners for Tomorrowland but, we have chosen to take a slightly different approach. Most of the time they’re built to let you choose whatever artists you want, without checking if they’re already compatible with your schedule. This means that the artists you have chosen will most likely overlap. To avoid this, we have built a slightly more strict tool. You can try our Tomorrowland schedule planner right now, completely free. So, how does it work? Very simple! Starting from the first slot on the timetable (Friday at 12:00) you’ll be forced to choose an artist to see. If no artists are within your tastes, you can choose to skip to a certain time in the day. Once an artist has been chose, it will appear on the bottom of the page. If you have chosen the wrong artist, you can delete it and choose another one easily. if you don’t feel like listening to an artist in full, you can choose an early end time. The tool works by filtering out all the artists that don’t start playing or are not playing at the time the latest artist or skip period is chosen. For instance, if you have chosen an artist that will end playing at 1 PM, the tool will show all the artists that will start playing at 1 PM and the artists that are playing at 1 PM, so you can choose without worrying about overlapping slots. The tool is still in the developing phase. The code is open source and you suggest improvement or propose bugfix on GitHub. Tomorrowland also has its official app for Android and iOS.

ODESZA was bringing the heat to The Gorge this past weekend. Both literally and figuratively. On Saturday, a small accidental brush fire was caused by their pyrotechnics being blown away by the wind to the wrong place, which led them to end their show early. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. This was their final show in their 3-run experience at The Gorge Amphitheater in Washington. It also marked their final show of The Last Goodbye tour, which has hit 54 shows at 48 venues across North America. The fire was quickly extinguished and fans were asked to leave the venue. Prior to the show, the venue had issued a high-heat warning and stated the fire danger in the region was “very high.” The three-night show brought in more than 66,000 fans. As a little piece of trivia, ODESZA were going to end their show, as per usual during the tour, with their track ‘The Last Goodbye’, which never played, since the incident happened during/after their hit ‘It’s Only’, which was planned a few songs ahead. So, that last goodbye never came at The Gorge. See a bystander’s video below from The Gorge.

In an era when artists increasingly favor singles over cohesive long-form projects, it's a rare delight to find a dance album that fully immerses you in another world. That's exactly what salute has achieved with their debut album, TRUE MAGIC. Spanning 14 tracks, the record brings fans on a visceral and vibrant journey from front to back, its first track brimming with as much energy and passion as its last. Even though the prolific producer approached the album with the goal of making as much music as possible and whittling down the best collection of songs, TRUE MAGIC is remarkably cohesive. Threading a broad spectrum of sounds from house and UKG to breakbeat and pop, there's a through-line of nostalgia and charming simplicity in their production. salute.Lewis Vorn Collaborations serve as the foundation of the album, showcased by "reason." Combining salute's signature uptempo sound with Karma Kid's contemporary production, the uplifting track brings out the best of salute but also allows them to explore new creative directions. Further into the album, the Vienna-born beatsmith showcases their versatility as they transition into a softer, more emotive sound. In "perfect," they teamed up with LEILAH to capture the ethereal sensation of falling deeply in love. TRUE MAGIC is only salute's first full-length album, but it has the feel of a tour de force. Demonstrating a polished maturity in both songwriting and arrangement, each of its songs flows seamlessly to paint an aching narrative and signal a promising a future for a musician whose career is only just beginning. TRUE MAGIC is set to release on July 12th, 2024 via Ninja Tune.

Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding's collaborative chemistry is a gift that keeps on giving. They reunited last year to release "Miracle," which Harris said at the time marked the completion of a "trilogy" of bangers after teaming up for 2012's "I Need Your Love" and 2014's "Outside." They're now back with a fourth collaboration, which the chart-topping dance music superstar recently tested out for a crowd on the island of Ibiza during a DJ set at Ushuaïa. Much like Harris and Goulding's collaborations of yesteryear, the track was designed for the walk-on-air rapture of a singalong moment in unison. With anthemic production and head-over-heels songwriting ("When I'm with you I'm free"), they have another surefire dance hit on their hands. Check out Harris' clip below. View the original article to see embedded media. The reveal of the new song arrives after Harris in May teased a rumored collaboration with Miley Cyrus, tentatively titled "Ocean." That track, however, appears to have been postponed or scrapped entirely after he removed all teasers from his social media. Neither Harris nor Goulding has formally announced release date of their untitled collaboration at the time of this writing.
