You know the words, you know the drop, you know the producer… “Laserbeam” from Ray Volpe is now officially out everywhere, and you’re going to hear it everywhere. The song was the #1 most played record at EDC Las Vegas; when you consider there were 9 stages with dozens of different genres, and one dubstep track was played by everyone, that is definitely significant. “Thunderdome was actually the viral origin of ‘Laserbeam,’” Ray says. “It started with an email to Excision updating him with new unreleased music to play at shows. I mentioned in the email how ‘Laserbeam’ would be cool to play with lasers in his high-production sets with crazy rigs. After my set at Thunderdome where I was support for Excision, I went to the crowd to watch Excision perform & suddenly heard the beginning of ‘Laserbeam.’ The reaction from the fans in the venue as the song dropped was loud & clear. Needless to say, I was also freaking out. I filmed the whole thing & posted it the next day on social media, which went viral, currently tallying over 800,000 views on my own platforms; Excision, Illenium, Black Tiger Sex Machine, & many others have posted as well since then, accumulating a total of over 10,000,000 views today. I thought to myself that this is the craziest thing ever and that it couldn’t possibly get any better.” Since then, the track has been played ad nauseam to the point that its presence is almost ubiquitous in any bass set these days — and that’s not an indication of laziness on the DJs, but a sign of how good this track is that it’s absolutely everywhere.

It feels like only yesterday when I interviewed the recent-D1 hockey player Hayden Capuozzo, aka Kayzo, at a small pizza shop in North Hollywood, accompanied by his manager, having just graduated from Icon Collective. In reality, that was back in 2015 and a lot has happened since then — he’s released two albums, launched his own label, headlined festival stages, and created and cultivated a devoted fanbase that lives for his unique and fervent blend of electronic and rock. Today, Kayzo releases his third studio album, NEW BREED. As the name suggests, the goal of the album is to begin a new story. “New Breed is about the next generation. The turning of a page. The continuing journey of KAYZO and the constant progression of evolution of my sound within the many layers of what makes me who I am,“ says KAYZO. “Pushing myself and others to continue blur the lines of what we know as dance music and what we know as rock. Meeting in this grey area of the two worlds and not knowing what side is what. New Breed is the shedding of the old and celebrating what’s to come.” Of the 20 tracks on the album, only four had previously been released as singles, meaning 80% of the album is brand new and never released, though you’re sure to have heard some of them if you’ve seen Kayzo live recently. Listen to the full album below! Kayzo’s New Breed Tour launches July 02 in Portland, making stops in New York, Boston, San Francisco, Denver, and an Imagine Music Festival appearance in Atlanta. More dates to be announced in the coming weeks. This article was first published on Your EDM. Source: Kayzo’s ‘NEW BREED’ album meant to “blur the lines” of what we know as dance music and rock

Since I first saw Moore Kismet perform live back in 2019, I’ve believed the young star was destined for greatness. There was a sense of genuineness in their demeanor and approach to the craft that I felt had been sorely missing at the time; now, three years later, I’m happy to listen to their debut album, UNIVERSE, and reaffirm that initial intuition. Though eleven of the seventeen album tracks were previously released as singles, and three serve as prologue, interlude, and epilogue, it’s still best to hear an album as it was meant to be presented — as a package. You can get the tracklist of an album early and put all the singles in order, but it’s never the same as listening as how the artist intended. With UNIVERSE, you get a complete and bare look into Moore Kismet’s creative mind especially as it has expanded and grown over the past three years. The album has been in some sort of state for at least that long, with the first single, “Rumor,” having been released over a year ago. With the exponential growth of Moore Kismet’s career, fans at almost all levels have been able to grow and see the process unfold with them over time, something that rarely gets to happen so ubiquitously. “’UNIVERSE’ is a musical culmination of my life experiences, growth as a human being, and artist over the past 17 years of my life. For 5 years (2018-2022), I spent countless days and sleepless nights working on what I would consider to be the best Moore Kismet project to date. It’s an album about acceptance, love, chaos, unity, and figuring out your life while trying to live it. If there was any project I’ve ever made for this project that serves as the best retelling of my life, ‘UNIVERSE’ is that album.” – Moore Kismet UNIVERSE, the debut album from Moore Kismet, is out now.

Luxo has established himself as a rising star in the tech scene with releases on Desert Hearts, Get Twisted, Hood Politics and now CID’s Night Service Only. As co-owner of one of the hottest LA underground house record labels, Rock Bottom Records, Luxo continues to demonstrate that being at the bottom isn’t always a bad thing.

If there’s one thing I love almost as much as new music from The Chainsmokers, it’s remixes of their music from emerging stars. Isaac Palmer is exactly that. The 21 year old has developed quite an impressive career thus far, already topping the charts on the Spinnin’ Records Talent Pool, earning over 500,000 streams in just two songs across all DSPs, and even delivering remixes for the likes of Ty Dolla $ign that has earned enormous love and support on Soundcloud. Now he’s back with a fresh and invigorating flip of The Chainsmokers hit single, “I Love U“, that is destined for greatness. Palmer speeds up the original, injecting it with an edgier slap house vibe that is simply irresistible. His sounds and melodies are flawless, showcasing just how talented this young artist really is. Here’s what Isaac Palmer had to say about it: “I had so much fun doing this! The remix happened after I listened to the guys’s new album. I sent Alex an email and asked if I could try to remix one of the songs! He’s awesome and gave me an opportunity to give it a shot! I got a hold of the stems and went to work. I made so many different versions and had a lot of fun with it. I loved experimenting with Drew’s vocals and I feel like it turned out pretty sick! Hope you guys enjoy.” Listen below and grab your free download! Isaac Palmer · The Chainsmokers – I Love U (Isaac Palmer Remix) This article was first published on Your EDM.

It’s been three years since Party Favor’s debut album, Layers, came out. Though, given the events of the past few years, it feels like so much longer. It’s refreshing, then, that Party Favor’s newest album comes out and absolutely redefines the artist’s sound and expression with a brand new intensity and vision. RESET feels very intentionally named, as PF has long been relegated into the trap and party sound that ignited his career. Considering the ubiquity of some of his early songs like “Bap U” or “Wiggle Wop,” not to mention his artist name itself, it’s not entirely surprising that fans have leaned that way. But he’s worked hard through the pandemic, releasing THE ISOLATION ALBUM in 2020, a collection of experimental and more toned-down productions. Now, he’s ready for a full reset and we can’t stop listening. Previously released singles “Save Me,” “Superhuman,” “I See You,” and “Losing My Mind” were able to reveal a significant but limited scope of the full album experience. The full project is beautifully crafted and works as a complete story. Listen to the full album below! Photo via @slvcker This article was first published on Your EDM.

The success story of manager Alex Akleh is like that of a fairytale. When artists like ACRAZE blast off to the top of every chart overnight, people love to boast how they were “there before he blew up”, but no one has the right to this claim like Alex does. Not only has he been managing him from the very start, but it’s largely due to his unwavering hustle and tenacity that ACRAZE’s instant stardom was made possible. What began as a switch-up of styles eventually became the notorious “Do It To It”, which now has billions of plays and seems to be superglued to the top of dance charts. ACRAZE has since gone from Orlando crowds in the double digits to jam-packed mainstage performances at some of the world’s biggest festivals, all with Alex Akleh dealing the cards right behind the scenes. Most recently, he’s secured ACRAZE a remunerative signing deal on Capitol Records. Despite the extent of Alex’s success, business was not always easy for the 27 year old entrepreneur. His work ethic and determination carried him out of a tough childhood and into an impressive self-taught skill set which earned him a solid footing in the industry. With a passion for not only music and business, but also a genuine will to help others reach their full potential, Alex has achieved a definitive reputation as a master of the craft and a game-changer for aspiring artists and businesses.

In 2022, the ladies are bringing back classic Dance music. Eli Barillas is no exception to creating heartfelt music. The singer/songwriter has been building her career since 2010. She began to create Youtube videos showcasing her authentic persona and raw singing talent. Barillas also taught herself how to play the piano throughout this process. After her move to L.A. in 2020, Eli released her most notable project thus far, “ELI” It’s worth pointing out that Keyyz executively produced and wrote this entire project. Catchy melodies and unwavering groove find symbiotic harmony on a track whose wisdom is just as palpable as it is understated. Though “Liquid Tears” is one of the most energetic tracks from Barillas to date, her near-universal affinity for admired songwriting isn’t lost as she widens her scope and hones her sound. With more music slated for the near future as spring turns to summer, Eli Barillas is an artist that needs to stay on your radar. This article was first published on Your EDM.

Once again, all of bass music will descend upon Legend Valley this September as Lost Lands returns. At first glance, this year’s lineup looks much the same as years past, with familiar names like Black Tiger Sex Machine, Dirt Monkey, Herobust, Illenium, Kai Wachi, Riot Ten, Rusko, Space Laces, Subtronics, and more taking up generous portions of the larger-font top half. If you look more closely, however, some interesting curveballs start to pop out … KOAN Sound, Madeon, G Jones, Dr. Fresch, and Eptic are all among the top-billed artists. That’s not even mentioning the lower half which features tons of artists from Subsidia Records compilations over the past year and a half, like Ghost In Real Life, Drinkurwater, Jiqui, Mylky, Bernzikial, and more. Plus, there seems to be a consistent upward tick in the amount of drum & bass on the lineup, with Pendulum and Dieselboy both getting top-half billing this year, plus Justin Hawks, MUZZ, KJ Sawka, Bensley, and others on the lower half. If you were on the fence about grabbing a ticket, act fast. VIP is about to sell out, and GA is on the final tier.

Shows are constantly being announced and sometimes it’s hard to know what you can or can’t make it to at the time. The secondary ticket market has exploded, though it’s often a challenge finding tickets that aren’t draining your whole wallet. To discover the best time to buy concert tickets, FinanceBuzz analyzed data on the resale market for recent concerts of some of the top acts currently touring. Here’s what they found: It pays to wait to purchase concert tickets. Concert-goers spent 33% less than average on tickets when purchasing them on the day of a concert, and 27% less than average the day before. Just under two weeks before a festival was the best time to buy passes — Prices were 30% below average 13 days before the festival start and 24% below average 12 days out. 24% of concert tickets and 25% of festival tickets bought on the resale market are purchased in the week leading up to the event.

This guy is just really good at naming things. Starting with his artist moniker, if apt titling was the only thing needed to get people to listen to one’s music, Restless Mosaic wouldn’t even need press. It’s difficult to ignore, to the point where one has to wonder if this is actually all concept work. Like an actual visual mosaic, this artist’s work is intricate, beautiful and its full effect is really only appreciated when one steps back to see the sum of its parts. The “restless” part, however, makes that sum just a little off; the experimental side of the work makes the emotive and emotional whole feel a little, well, restless. Similarly when YEDM discovered Restless Mosaic with his first album There’s Much Left to Explore released in February 2021, the name was so apt it was almost too apt: the unfinished nature of this multi-genre soundclash of an album was purposeful and, again, quite concept-driven. In the Windows 95 pinball game ‘Loony Labyrinth’ – in which you travel back to ancient Greece to rescue something or other from a minotaur chamber while the moon phases are right (maybe? I never beat it) – when you lose a ball, a digitized voice says, “There’s much left to explore.” And I’ve come back to music full-bore because that’s what motivates me to create anything – knowing how many awesome things are out there, waiting to be discovered and explored. If that’s not a good reason for a game and an excellent approach to songwriting and production, we don’t know what is. There’s Much Left to Explore indeed covered a lot of uncharted musical territory, especially in the way it mashed different genres and styles together. Dubstep, krautrock, vaporwave, muzak? Nothing was off limits to explore but the album also came off so cohesively that its reach went wider than anyone expected for an experimental album. Restless Mosaic truly has that x-factor like an Underworld or an Aphex Twin where he’s able to make high-concept, technically really difficult and, again, “restless” music also remarkably listenable. It’s no easy skill. That first album title also carried with it the portends of more to come from Restless Mosaic, and that’s where we meet him with his new album, Made by Thawing Ice, released in March of this year. Again with the excellent titling, one has to wonder if the album title is so good it’s informing how we listen to the music. With said title obviously alluding to water, there is a flow and a sort of underwater quality to this whole album that seems to run as a common current in the sound design…we think. If the album wasn’t titled thus, would we still hear it thus? Mr. Restless is making us all restless with this sonic mindjob, and let’s not even get into that jab at perception and perspective contained in the title: it’s common to think of ice as being made by freezing water, but who ever thinks of water as being made by melting ice, aside from perhaps glaciologists. With this album, we’re launched into the Restless Mosaic before we even hit play. As previously overstated, Made by Thawing Ice has much more flow and musical progression than its predecessor, mainly accomplished via the liberal application of vaporwave synths, drone and staticy Moog-style synth work. Starting with the wavy foghorns of “A La Cara Amarilla” featuring vocalist Lili Aqvq and running through “Sandbags on the Flood of My Insecurities,” which sounds a bit like being trapped in a flooding submarine in the loveliest possible way, to the nature drone-fueled industrial mix of “Polliwog 1 & 6 7 8,” the water vibes are definitely there and that synth work ties it all together. Less of a clash of genres and more of an IDM redux, Made by Thawing Ice nonetheless contains a lot of surprises that operate outside of said redux. “Multicam Behavioral Health” featuring Dear Kristin, for example, takes a sharp left from the first few songs on the album back into dadaist experimentalism. Mostly jazz fusion-inspired with sort of camp funk synths driving the Broadway-style lyrics, this track is almost a palette cleanser or an intermission from the rest of the album. Just like everything else, however, it’s deliberately placed. Its closing lyric “please, let me be alone for ten minutes” leads into the exactly ten minutes long “Alone for Ten Minutes” moves from dadaist to surrealist and is an answer to the question of what happens to this and many other artists’ minds when they are, in fact, left alone for ten minutes. From there, the album takes a decidedly jazzy bent but it’s still got that underwater feel and flow within the sound design which allows for those most experimental breaks in “Multicam Behavioral Health” and “Alone for Ten Minutes.” Made by Thawing Ice also seems to be a story told in sound about perspective, the giant satire that is the human mind and how to keep that overthinking, glitched out supercomputer inside our cranial wall online and functioning. One way, according to Restless Mosaic, it so pour all that mess out on a staff and see if we can make some sense of it. It’s still unclear if he can or not, but the result is a killer LP with more perfectly apt titles than you can shake a stick at, and, potentially, a world of organized chaos behind the bits of glass that does help heal some f the emotions around being human, even when they don’t make sense. That’s really all anyone can ask of a piece of art, and Restless Mosaic has accomplished it in his second album. Pretty decent progress in a year. Made by Thawing Ice is out now and can be streamed on Spotify and purchased on Bandcamp along with Restless Mosaic’s first album, the indomitable There’s Much Left to Explore.

Los Angeles native and bass music producer, Chassi has one mission: to help people who are struggling overcome the challenges they face. Chassi has quickly become one of the most exciting names in bass music through his powerful sound and electrifying live sets. The producer exploded onto the scene in 2020 and hasn’t looked back, with releases on major labels like Subsidia and DPMO. Chassi’s project combines the ethereal sounds of heavy and melodic bass music to create a sound that is pushing the limits of the genres. He has even released official remixes for ATLiens and Riot Ten, and has collabs released with heavy hitters such as Funtcase and HE$H. Now, he’s back with a booming single titled “The Fight“and it’s one for the books. Fueled by explosive synths, hard hitting vocals, and razor sharp cutting-edge sounds, it’s safe to say Chassi has delivered on creating another perfect peak time track. “The Fight” is an immediate crowd pleasure and definitely a head-banging tune, already earning support of the dubstep king Excision. Here’s what Chassi had to say about it: “The Fight is a new chapter in my life as I am telling my life story through the warrior eyes. Growing up, I was super depressed, always got bullied everyday & at most times was suicidal. When I almost gave up on myself, I had to find the strength to fight for my own life as a warrior would & let everyone know that enough is enough. With the aggressive “I JUST DONT GIVE A” vocal, it shows that I will no longer back down & need to stand up for myself & do what’s right!” “The image that I am always pushing is that no one’s ever alone & when you think everything is going down & life is over, IT’S NOT! We all need to come together & fight for what we love & believe in. We all need to be there for one another & make sure everything is ok. With this generation being super self-centered, My goal here is to change that. I want everyone to be able to love one another, spread good vibes/memories & to let you know that if you fight & stand up for yourself, you will win & you will achieve everything you’ve ever dreamed of! YOU’RE NOT ALONE!” Listen below! This article was first published on Your EDM. Source: Chassi Drops Fiery Head Banging Single, ‘The Fight’

Brondo exploded onto the scene in 2019 with his debut show, sold out – Denver CO. Since then, Brondo has been committed to creating a unique and unforgettable experience for the fans who would soon become the start of his very own tribe, the “Bass Troop”. Brondo’s bass infused sound has resonated throughout EDM’s biggest stages. Landing him performances at Red Rocks, Lost Lands, Ubbi Dubbi, Decadence, Imagine Music Festival and many more. Now, he’s back with his 2nd studio album titled, ‘Concrete Jungle’, and the result is of epic proportions. He initially teased three singles, “Dick Twist,” “Push Somebody,” and “The King,” which revealed a blend of jaw-rattling riddim and dubstep that bass-fans have been primed to obsess over. The album is a 12 track excursion that continues to put on display the unrelenting talent and creativity that courses through Brondo’s veins. Each song delivers its own headbanging experience, but a few stand outs for us include the title track, boasting a drop that feels like the equivalent of about 20 shots of espresso. “Gorilla Pimpin” is a beast of a song, taking you on a journey where you think you know the end destination, only to jolt in a completely new direction by the time the drop hits. “Letting Go” shows a more melodic side to Brondo, seamlessly weaving heavy bass and future bass elements together for a truly beautiful song.

Hear it for yourself below! This article was first published on Your EDM. Source: St.Sinny Deals Out Fiery Tech House Single, “LeftRight” [Pharaoh Phonix]

With a luscious discography that dates back to 2013, Fabels (yes, we’re spelling that right) could likely have started the return to shoegaze and experimental art rock trend the electronic world is seeing swell nowadays. With their first two albums, 2013’s Zimmer and 2016’s Hi dabbling in Bauhaus-cum-Sonic Youth-cum-Ride experimental krautrock vibes, by 2018 the duo had added electronic elements and more wall of sound guitars a’la Catherine Wheel or Th’Faith Healers. Now with their third album, Minds, which released late last year, Fabels are officially in dream pop (albeit creepy dream pop; is there such a thing as “nightmare pop”?) territory and officially on Your EDM’s radar. By the way, did anyone else not know that music from sunny Australia could be so dark? Who expected experimental krautrock to reach as far as Sydney? It doesn’t help that a lot of the vocals seem to be Scandinavian or German, though the fact that Fabels worked closely with Icelandic music producer Geir Brillian Gunnarsson snaps at least that part of the puzzle into place. Rest assured, however, there was a lot of double-and-triple-checking the promo to make sure it didn’t actually say “Austria” instead of “Australia.” With confusion and initial promo-checks completed, we can now say that Minds is a triumph of an album in many genres: shoegaze, krautrock, dream pop, experimental electronica, world music, dark wave, post punk and even a bit of goth. With all those styles involved, the album sounds incredibly cohesive; one definitely wouldn’t mistake Fabels for any other artist with this album. In earlier work, listeners may be able to pick out influences like the ones mentioned above, but Minds is all Fabels, and this Gunnarsson guy, apparently, who we’re also kicking ourselves about not knowing. From the merely weird and interesting semi-Bjork-y tones of the title track to the definitely disturbing experimentalism of “ShereKhan” (released on its own in 2018), Minds sort of creates its own world of sound. It’s not even really fair to call it experimental (though we have it on good authority that a lot of sound science was deployed here) because the artistry and musicality of the album is so complete. While the Aussie duo worked occassionally with different producers, such as fellow Aussie Geir Brillian on “Piccolo,” the overall sound and theme of the album are perfectly pitched to together. Singles on their own make an impact, but the album as a whole is an actual reality shift. Fabels also have a strong audio/visual component to their work, as is evidenced by all the videos that have come out of the album. They recorded a studio session performance for three tracks in advance of the album’s release in 2020 and 2021 (dir. Matthew Syres) and shot two music videos for the title track and “ShereKhan.” The studio sessions were dramatically lit and perfectly match the vibe of the album while the actual music videos, created by artists working with Fabels’ label Qusp are visual representations of the music. All this together creates an even more immersive experience into Fabels’ world. There is so much to unpack with Fabels that one article can hardly do them justice; perhaps if we’d known about them from the start it would be easier to describe, but really the proof of the pudding is in the eating and we definitely recommend fans of all the genres we mentioned get stuck in with this innovative, dark and impeccably produced project that defies genre. Minds is out now on Qusp and can be streamed or purchased on multiple platforms here. Subscribe to their YouTube channel to keep up with more wild and artsy video releases.

With a vocal timbre similar to Lady of Rage crossed with Latifah and a spit game comparable to early 00s Nas, Nemesis earned her moniker the old fashioned way: in rap battles. Now a formidable force and ready to remind hip hop of its spiritual power, Nemesis has released her second single “INNOV8!” and if getting read for a third with the aim of combating pop hop and bringing the genre back to what it once symbolized for her and many other rap lovers. If anyone can make an impact on mumble rap, after all, it’s a good Nemesis. Nemesis’s first single “Nefertiti the First” released in 2018 and gave audiences an idea of what she’s capable of, both in terms of skill and content. With a fast, rolling flow backed by smooth, soulful beats a’la early Common or Slum Village, this first single is not just a hearkening back to the golden age of hip hop but to the power of art, beauty and the kingdoms of Africa. It’s a call to action for her contemporaries and colleagues: style and substance can exist together and, in fact, that’s what makes the impact or true rap. Now having signed on to partner with fellow SoCal MC God’s Gift to run the equally expansive label Pure Order, fans can expect Nemesis to speed up production on her own work as well. Her most recent single “INNOV8!” dropped in April and her next offering “Tigress” is due to release this Friday. Beat-wise, “INNOV8!” reaches even farther back in hip hop’s history as the Slick Rick/Digital Underground-style beats hit on second one of this dancier but also somehow even more lyrically expansive track as compared to “Nefertiti the First.” With Nemesis channeling her inner Neneh Cherry and MC Lyte for this dancefloor vibe, “INNOV8!” is also a call to action for would-be rappers as well as anyone who needs a bit of leveling up. The catchy hook “thoughts plus beats equals innovate” both belies and summarizes the spiritual intent of the track. She’s not wrong either; no matter what the genre, if you’ve got an idea and a beat, you can make something innovative. That’s just scratching the surface as well; “INNOV8!” is packed with inspiring and mind-bending verse, all perfectly spit in a flow that rivals many of the greats. Said flow is fast, but luckily Nemesis and Pure Order have made a lyric video that’s just as fun and funky as the track: The next single in what looks to be a series from Nemesis is “Tigress.” This track was released previously but since hooking up with Pure Order, Nemesis decided to give it a remaster of the original, produced by OhNo the Disrupt with the help of DJ Romes. It was a good idea to re-release this track as it’s another testament to Nemesis’s range of styles and vocal flexibility. With smooth, Wu Tang-style vibes, Nemesis again reaches into the deep, powerful registers of her voice to drive home to power of her lyrics. With a noble mission of restoring hip hop to its former glory while elevating hearts and minds, Nemesis has a long road ahead of her. With the backing of a like-minded label, incredible talent and skill and a solid understanding of where she wants to go from here, however, this powerful artist has what it takes to complete that mission, bringing ever more expansive and well-written hip hop to a genre that desperately needs that innovation. If anyone is capable of doing it, it’s this “Tigress.” Check out “Nefertiti the First” and “INNOV8!” on multiple platforms now by clicking here and be sure to watch the Pure Order YouTube channel on Friday for the drop of “Tigress.” This article was first published on Your EDM.
