This one is a fun one! British Melodic Techno artist Massano delivers his newest single ‘Fama Land’. An interesting and sultry sample from RAFFA GUIDO’s ‘Famax’, available on his very own label Simulate. Massano makes it his own, with a new title, compared to the official remixes from Goom Gum or Franky Rizardo. The track is a more aggressive and peaktime-like approach compared to other singles from the DJ such as ‘Angel in the Dark’. ‘Fama Land’ The track begins with the catchy and recognizable Spanish vocals, in a manlier pitch than the original, including stutters and reverb effects. Then, the filthy Techno kicks hit. The groove remains eerie and inspiring, invoking a smooth and fun beat. The drop involves a fun synth arrangement that’s consistent with other peak time tracks such as Eli Brown’s ‘Be The One’. Nevertheless, Massano makes this beat his own, adding his aggressive sound engineering, and melodic undertones. The track follows his most recent single ‘Touch Me’, alongside TH:EN and Carlo Whale. We are now recognizing a pattern, in which Massano is flipping great tracks and adds his majestic touch, creating new sonic experiences. He leaves space for new and imaginative tracks, however. His track, ‘Angel In The Dark’ with Anyma and Nathan Nicholson, featured in Anyma’s End of Genesys, with incredible visuals. Moreover, it debuted the same night Anyma’s show premiered at the Sphere in Las Vegas. Massano went on to headline at the Sphere, on New Years Eve, alongside Adriatique and Anyma.

UNUM Festival is a shining example of the purest form of underground electronic music. The 2025 version will be held from June 5th to 10th in the beautiful Rana e Hedhun, Albania. The Phase 1 lineup includes some of the biggest names in underground electronic music, including Dixon, Ricardo Villalobos, and Sonja Moonear. What makes UNUM unique is its dedication to exploring music nonstop. During the festival, the Albanian coast becomes an acoustic refuge for five days and nights in a row. Time stops being measured by the passing of time and the rhythm of the waves. The 24-hour programming philosophy comes from a deep knowledge of the culture of electronic music, where long musical journeys are more important than making money. The Lineup for the 2025 edition The Phase 1 news shows a carefully chosen lineup that includes artists of all ages and styles. Dixon, one of the most sought-after artists in electronic music for his masterful control of tension and release, teams up with the mysterious Ricardo Villalobos, whose experimental take on minimal techno has affected many other artists. They are playing with Sonja Moonear, whose tasteful choices mix old classics with newer hits. This shows that UNUM values musical depth over market appeal. Seth Troxler‘s addition promises to add his unique mix of Detroit house and European minimal to the mix, while Damian Lazarus‘s addition brings his mysterious style to electronic music. Carlita, a rising star, reflects the new generation and brings new ideas to the underground sound. The Three Stages of UNUM The three separate stages at the event make it easy to try out new music: This year, the Pine Stage is UNUM’s beating heart and is always open during the event. It is tucked away among old pine trees and makes for a cozy place for long musical trips. This is where artists like Raresh and Priku can go deep into their record collections without having to hurry. The Beach Stage uses the energy of the Adriatic Coast’s renewable energy. From dawn until dusk, artists who know how to do delicate daytime programming play there, adding hypnotic beats and subtle progressions to the natural setting. As the sun goes down, the Main Stage turns into the festival’s powerhouse, where acts like Dixon can play their best choices for peak times. The place where UNUM is located in Albania is more than just a pretty scene. It represents how underground electronic music culture can spread around the world and turn surprising places into cultural landmarks. The event was a big part of putting Albania on the map for electronic music. It connected dance music cultures from Eastern and Western Europe. The Experience at the UNUM Festival Besides the music, UNUM offers something that is becoming less common at festivals these days. When you combine beautiful natural settings with continuous music programming and a crowd that values music enjoyment over social media moments, you create a space where real connections can grow. For people who know that the best electronic music is about making moments that go beyond time and space, UNUM is more than just another event. Between the pine woods and the Adriatic Sea, UNUM 2025 looks like it will be another exciting part of one of the most interesting stories in electronic music. If you know what I mean when I say that the best parties are often the hardest to find, UNUM is that one place where underground reputation and natural beauty work together perfectly.

With his latest masterpiece, “I’m Alive,” UK electronic music star Curbi continues to push the limits in 2025. It is his first release on Insomniac’s growing label, IN / ROTATION. This vocal-driven melodic house gem, which came out on February 11, shows how Curbi’s artistic vision is changing while still keeping his signature high-quality production. As an example of Curbi’s flexibility as a producer, “I’m Alive” is a nice change from his usual bass-heavy album output. The song starts with ethereal pad work that creates a spooky atmosphere. Then, the track’s main feature comes in: a stunning female vocal performance that is both the emotional anchor and the soaring melodic highlight. The music is a masterful work of restraint and buildup, with breathy voice synths weaving in and out of ethereal melodic phrases. All of these parts dance on top of carefully made basslines that pulse with infectious energy and move the track forward without overpowering its more delicate parts. “I’m Alive” stands out because it strikes a good mix between mainstream appeal and underground taste. The structure of the track is like a journey; each part builds on the last to create moments of pure happiness. There is a lot of positive energy in the chorus, and the breakdowns give the track’s more subtle parts a chance to shine. The song’s message of enjoying the present and seizing life’s chances fits perfectly with the way it sounds. The theme of “seizing the day” comes through in both the words and the production’s lively, upbeat energy. There are amazing times on the dancefloor when this kind of music makes you feel like time has stopped and the music speaks directly to your soul. Curbi has already put out music on some of the biggest names in electronic music, so this release on IN / ROTATION seems like a reasonable next step for him. An important part of the Insomniac sub-label is supporting new and innovative dance music, which makes it a great fit for Curbi’s sound change. The post Curbi lands on IN/ROTATION with ‘I’m Alive’ appeared first on The Groove Cartel.

Some EDM moments don’t need flashing lights or pounding bass to feel electrifying. With his acoustic take on "Told You So," Martin Garrix proves that sometimes, the softest sounds leave the deepest impact. Stripped of its shimmering house beat, the acoustic version of "Told You So" breathes in a different kind of intensity. Jex’s voice, once soaring above Garrix’s uplifting production, now trembles with a quiet urgency. It's a hushed confession in one breath and an unrestrained crescendo in the next, stretching skyward toward the kind of emotion that only exists when you surrender completely. Garrix's acoustic arrangement embraces both extremes, allowing the song to breathe between vulnerability and power. He takes an unexpected turn trading layered synths for delicate piano chords and leaving space for every lyric to land with devastating clarity.

Flosstradamus and Lil Jon have reunited for "IDGAF," a festival crunk eruption that follows their timeless trap track "Prison Riot." It’s a fitting reunion. "IDGAF" feels like the natural successor to "Prison Riot," doubling down on the mayhem and delivering a rager engineered for the summer’s biggest stages. They take the reckless energy of that 2016 anthem and supercharge it with even bigger bass, sharper synths and an unrelenting hardstyle finale. Out now on Dim Mak, the track is an open invitation to the wild side—an all-caps manifesto for those who dance like they’ve got nothing to lose. Lil Jon, the eternal hype architect, barks his battle cry, unleashing a no-holds-barred anthem that spits in the face of restraint. Meanwhile, the track's production is pure, unfiltered Flosstradamus with bone-rattling subs and heavy-hitting drums. The track ultimately pivots from its trap-fueled rampage into a full-throttle hardstyle drop, where crushing kicks and stadium-filling chants push the intensity past the redline.

Two very clever guys have just breathed new life into a very clever single. So, do you remember Michael Alan‘s ‘Dark Matter‘ from last year? Back then, when the original released, Alan’s debut track by the way, Perth-based imprint Amon Vision paired it with a killer Will Rees remix which brought all the Trancy beats to the table. Today, the label brings back ‘Dark Matter’ with two very intense remixes: one from Myon, and another one from Jody 6. The EP has received support from Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Aly & Fila, Andrew Rayel and more, so this is your sign to get to listening. Myon’s unique blend of Trance, Deep House, Progressive resonates worldwide. With a background in Jazz and Pop, this Hungarian-born, US-based artist crafts productions ranging from dance floor anthems to cinematic soundscapes. After a decade of success as part of Myon & Shane 54, Myon is now focused on his solo career, with which he’s kept releasing on Anjunabeats, among other A-class imprints. On the other hand, Jody 6 is a Techno artist whose sound blends heavy grooves with shadowy undertones and uplifting melodies. His releases on labels like Autektone, Fe Chrome, Respekt, Codex, and Armada have garnered support from artists like Deborah De Luca, Umek, and Armin van Buuren. He invites listeners to join him in a shared experience, celebrating the ephemeral beauty of life through the transformative power of music. Dark Matter (The Remixes) The EP contains both remixes, Jody 6’s, and Myon’s Return to 2000 Mix. Which one will be your weapon of choice? Myon Return to 2000 Mix Dark and groovy, Mario’s version wastes no time in foreplay: it’s raw and unfiltered power blasting through your speakers. The break, as to be expected from a Return to 2000 entry, transports you to a different space altogether with its engulfing atmospheres, just for the drop to bring you back down to rave-heavy Earth. Jody 6 Remix If you don’t know Jody’s music, this one will feel like a plot twist, in the best way possible. While the track kicks off with floaty, Trance-like soundscapes, the song quickly takes a sharp turn towards the dark and infectious world of Techno, incorporating rumbling low ends, detuned plucks, and immeasurable amounts of energy.

To paraphrase the great Ben Franklin, "In this world, nothing is certain except death, taxes and Ganja White Night occupying a tier of artistic creativity all their own.” For their latest release, "Magic Frog," out now via Subcarbon Records, the influential dubstep joined forces with LSDREAM and ProbCause to craft a genre-bending journey of sound and story. True to Ganja White Night’s signature approach, the track arrives alongside an animated music video that deepens its mystique, weaving surrealism and wobbly wizardry into one intoxicating audiovisual experience. We took a deep dive into the animation to unravel its symbolism. A sonic adventure begins"Magic Frog" opens with a celestial melody, setting a dreamlike tone as longtime Ganja White Night music video protagonist Mr. Wobble and his extraterrestrial, mushroom-topped companion lie beneath a starry sky. The appearance of a purple frog upon a nearby tree stump signals a shift, ushering in ProbCause’s rhythmic flow as the beat begins to morph and expand. As the track's energy builds, the production strikes an otherworldly balance between Ganja White Night’s signature bass wobbles and LSDREAM’s trippy atmospherics. The fusion of their styles feels effortless—deep, rippling low-end swells collide with shimmering textures, creating a groove that feels both weightless and commanding. The first drop prominently features Ganja's unmistakable sound design, twisting and warping beneath ProbCause's delivery, which adds a dynamic layer of hip-hop-infused lyricism. The visuals mirror this kinetic energy, propelling the characters through a neon-lit dreamscape where their positive disposition is tested by shadowy forces in a metaphorical clash that plays out both lyrically and sonically. From dubstep to drum & bass chaosAs the song evolves, a palpable tension builds. The beat teases a shift from dubstep into a pulse-pounding drum & bass sequence, signifying a heightened intensity as the magic frog—previously a quirky guide—mutates into a ferocious monster. The energy explodes into a stankface-inducing, high-speed drum & bass drop, an exhilarating contrast to the song's earlier groove-driven sections. In its final stretch, rhythmic cadences and buoyant basslines work in tandem to reinforce the track’s core message: positivity is transformative. ProbCause delivers the thought-provoking closing line, encapsulating the track’s essence: "When life get real, it feel more like a dream." A masterclass in storytelling"Magic Frog" is as much of a song as it is a spiritual experience. Musically, it bridges the whimsical and the heavy, the tangible and the surreal, effortlessly shifting between deep wobbles and frenetic drum & bass. The video, though a wild ride in itself, serves to enhance the track’s overarching message: external chaos may be inevitable, but our response to it defines our journey. Through the power of friendship and a positive mindset, no obstacle is insurmountable. Ganja White Night’s ability to craft narrative-driven bass music remains unparalleled, and with LSDREAM, ProbCause and longtime animator Ebo by their side, they've conjured yet another masterpiece, one that’s sonically captivating, philosophically rich and visually stunning.

It feels like ALLEYCVT dropped into electronic music and instantly stuck the landing. But her journey to the EDM.com Class of 2025, selling out Denver’s famed Ogden Theatre and major festival appearances, dates back further than her discography suggests. ALLEYCVT’s musical voyage is lifelong. With her various musical identities, you could construct a Spider-Man-like "ALLEY-VERSE." Those identities still echo in her music today, particularly her vocals. "I see a girl that has been through many musical lives," ALLEYCVT tells EDM.com. "A lot of eras." "There’s the first ALLEYCVT which was ‘Guitar ALLEYCVT’—thought she was Avril Lavigne ALLEYCVT. Then I went through a punk rock phase. I had a pop phase. Within that pop phase, I was also doing R&B and experimental pop. I was trying to find my sound for such a long time. Then I realized it was right in front of my face because I was always going to festivals. I love that type of music." Ian Moore ALLEYCVT released her first electronic track, "Back 2 U," in 2021. It immediately clicked with bass fans. While she worked for a long time towards a sustainable music career, her abrupt success is a double-edged sword. "That was when I was first dipping my toes into the electronic space as a producer,” she says. “I was trying to figure it out. When I look back at those songs, I had no idea what I was doing. But the feeling, emotion, drive and passion were there. So I look back on it really fondly." "But I think that's another thing that contributes to my overthinking because it did happen fairly fast." ALLEYCVT’s impending debut EP, FEEL IT, is one such growing pain. The project has been anticipated for months but hasn’t seen the light of day—not because of some grand calamity. It’s just the symptom of a young artist’s evolution. She is constantly sharpening her tools and reevaluating her work. She reworked the EP’s titular single “FEEL IT” approximately 20 times before its release. It's hard sharing your art when every new effort feels more complete than the last. "Stressful," ALLEYCVT admits when describing the EP's recording process. “It’s my first body of work. I’ve never really made a body of work like that below. There are a lot of things that go into it that you don’t necessarily think about until you’re doing it. Making sure everything is cohesive. Then the nerdy shit: the mixdowns and mastering and making sure everything sounds level." "If I’m being completely honest," she continues, "I wish I put this out months ago but I’m really taking my time with it. I think my first body of work I want to put out, I want to be really proud of it and not do what I usually do and release something and go, ‘Oh, I wish I fixed that and that.’ So I’m taking my time with it." Another familiar hardship, particularly for new artists, is self-confidence. ALLEYCVT exudes confidence—she’s charismatic and bold, and she presents herself with emphatic self-assurance. But the kooky thing about insecurities is how they manifest differently for everyone. ALLEYCVT admittedly adopted her father’s perfectionism and mother’s impatience, she says, along with many more fruitful gifts. It’s a potent combination in the music business' public and scrutinizing eye. So how does she stay grounded? "How do I do that?” ALLEYCVT muses. “I don’t even think I do it. I think the people around me that I trust help me do that and talk me down. The only reason I drive myself a little crazy is because I care so much about it. I care so much about the people who listen to my music and try to get better as an artist. I care a lot." “It’s always the people who are like, ‘Yo, chill! You’re fine. Nothing bad is going to happen. It’ll be fine. Stop overthinking it.’ It’s easier said than done. It’s the people I keep around me that help me with that the most, rather than myself.” But building a strong foundation around oneself is a pragmatic act of self-care. "It’s a skill in itself to surround yourself with people that help elevate your life,” ALLEYCVT says. “Just surround yourself with people you want to be like.” Ian Moore ALLEYCVT sold out two nights at Denver’s famed Ogden Theatre in December. The doubleheader's execution speaks eloquently to the passion involved by not one artist, but the very support system she's cultivated. 'I put my blood sweat and tears into that show…” ALLEYCVT recalls, thanking everyone involved in putting it together. "I’m very grateful and very happy with the way it went. I drove myself to the brink of insanity trying to make sure these shows were the best they could be. I think it was completely worth it in the long run. I’m really happy with how it went." Appreciating such an accomplishment in real time is difficult. It’s a stressful undertaking, particularly with a debut EP looming. Fortunately, the Denver shows are valuable mental keepsakes for an artist who sometimes gets caught up in the moment. “It’s very validating. It’s almost surreal,” ALLEYCVT says. “How did I get here? You get caught up in the heat of the moment. You’re always working and working, and building towards something else. You kind of forget to slow down and take it all in. Once it’s really over and you’re looking back at it, it’s so rewarding. It was worth every single ounce of hard work.” ALLEYCVT is riding a wave of momentum into 2025. The singer-songwriter, DJ and producer already has a prominent placement at Excision's Thunderdome event to her name this year. She's also extended her headlining tour with dates in North America, not to mention a landmark performance at EDC Las Vegas, the nation's largest EDM festival. Completing FEEL IT is a top priority. ALLEYCVT's debut EP is an intimidating task, but she has the creativity, drive and support to see it through. Cat got your tongue? Maybe. But not her's.

The official EDM.com Class of 2025 has been revealed. For the unfamiliar, our annual Class isn't a stale, archaic "artists to watch" feature, but a list of 10 musicians with transformative skill sets who are on the cusp of changing the fabric of electronic dance music. Through their workhorse mentalities and defiance of industry standards, these groundbreaking future headliners have already proven their volcanic potential in the scene—and they're now ready to erupt. The members of the EDM.com Class of 2025 are ALLEYCVT, Beltran, Champion, Jessica Audiffred, Layton Giordani, Linney, Max Styler, Oppidan, Tape B and Wakyin. Continue on to read more about each artist and discover their music. ALLEYCVTOn the brink of a bona fide breakout, ALLEYCVT has much more than nine lives. High-profile festival sets at Insomniac's HARD Summer, Excision's Lost Lands and an upcoming performance at EDC Las Vegas are just the beginning for this triple-threat producer, DJ and singer-songwriter, who is redefining what it means to be a multifaceted force in bass music. Her sound is a razor-edged fusion of bass-heavy fury and melodic vulnerability, carving out emotional landscapes within ferocious dubstep tracks that show no remorse. It's a compelling approach that has led to major support from ILLENIUM, Zeds Dead, NGHTMRE, Flux Pavilion and SLANDER, among many other elite dubstep and bass music artists. Ian Moore BeltranPristine yet dripping with character, Beltran's productions are a masterclass in groove refinement, where stripped-back minimalism meets trunk-thumping house music. Look no further than his breakout single "Smack Yo'," released via Michael Bibi's fabled Solid Grooves label. In short order, Beltran's tactile and irresistible sets have catapulted him as one of the most in-demand DJs in the techno and house scenes. Next up for the Brazilian breakout? A landmark performance in Coachella's iconic Yuma tent. c/o Prime Culture ChampionChampion has emerged as a flag-bearer of UK Grime as the genre continues to blossom into a global force. Whether through visceral low-end pressure or crisp syncopated claps, his drum programming is surgical, letting each element breathe while maintaining an unrelenting groove. The East London-based producer and founder of Formula Records has also settled into a reputation as a coveted collaborator on and off the stage. He joined forces with Nike and Footpatrol to develop a bespoke series of Air Max sneakers, and teamed up with Skrillex and Four Tet to release the captivating track "Talk to Me." c/o Funfair Management Jessica AudiffredIf you've been lured to a stage by some kind of unspoken, wild energy and seen neon hair thrashing in the DJ booth, it's likely Jessica Audiffred. The Mexican DJ and dubstep producer is riding the wave of a breakout, sending shockwaves through crowds at EDC Las Vegas, Lost Lands and the Amsterdam Dance Event, the world's leading electronic music summit. She also launched her own music festival, the aptly titled Mad House, where—much like her unapologetic bangers—bass reigns supreme and sanity is optional. c/o MAYD Artist Group Layton GiordaniThe one they call "Slayton" has been a force of nature, clawing to the top of techno's ranks with breakneck speed. The New York native has become one of the genre's biggest breakouts with his phantasmal sound, which entwines brutality and beauty through four-on-the-floor beats you can feel in your bones. His latest masterstrokes were an official remix of deadmau5's generational dance anthem "Strobe" and the haunting single "Act of God," a stunning collaboration with Sarah de Warren and fellow EDM.com Class of 2025 inductee Linney. The latter track released on John Summit's Experts Only imprint, one of a slew of influential labels that continue to release his music, including Tale of Us' Afterlife and Adam Beyer's Drumcode. c/o Metatone LinneyLinney is a singer-songwriter with the soul of a travelled storyteller. Weaving through melodies with a masterful blend of controlled vibrato and emotive breaks, her vocal range serves as both a vessel and a weapon, equally capable of delivering soaring falsettos and soft, crystalline harmonies. Linney's lyrics are also aching, carrying the weight of love, loss, transformation and redemption. They're one of the many reasons why she's emerged as a powerhouse singer-songwriter, one who has the ability to turn every demo into an emotional dancefloor anthem. Julia Hansson Max StylerFew producers have experienced a rise quite as meteoric as Max Styler, whose reinvention from Dim Mak prodigy to rising house music superstar has been a fascinating journey. A master of tension and release, he's now sculpting a signature sound that balances underground grit with dancefloor euphoria. Styler layers sultry vocal chops and intricate drum programming to craft tracks that feel both effortlessly smooth and meticulously detailed, elevating house music into a dynamic, sensory experience. It's a sound that has made him a fixture on John Summit's Experts Only label and events, not to mention high-profile releases on Repopulate Mars, Insomniac Records, Spinnin' Deep and Gorgon City's REALM imprint. c/o Metatone OppidanBristol-based beatsmith Oppidan has come a long way since she was a starry-eyed, 12-year-old artist burning CDs and selling them at school. With a global festival hit now under her belt as well as releases on iconic labels like Hospital, UKF and fabric Records, she's rampaging through the UK Garage scene as one of its most promising artists. The genre's swing just feels more alive inside Oppidan's arrangements, which incorporate bass music's visceral low-ends and the driving pulse of 4x4 to produce a sound all her own. It's UKG with a futurist’s touch, irresistibly danceable yet rich with nuance. c/o CTRLFRK Tape BNostalgia is Tape B's love language. The Turkish beatsmith's music is evocative mayhem, threading vintage hip-hop with growling dubstep while dusty vinyl crackles ripple through with analog warmth. Tape B's sound—and his beloved "CarTunes" mixes—are in a league of their own, rooted in boom-bap's golden era but stretched into psychedelic dimensions with glitchy textures and serpentine vowel bass. It's an approach that has entrenched him as one of bass music's most in-demand collaborators, teaming up with Subtronics, John Summit, Ganja White Night, Wooli and even Memphis rap icon Juicy J. c/o Koru Group WakyinWakyin has the innate ability to produce music that invites us into his own history. Radiant vocals—often pulled from his Dominican and Puerto Rican roots—slink through his beats with a mesmerizing fluidity as sophisticated polyrhythmic layers dance beneath gilded synth textures. Wakyin's signature approach to production maintains fierce danceability while incorporating subtle dembow patterns, creating beats that feel both ancestral and uniquely modern. In his universe, merengue's pulsing urgency collides with Afro-house's sultry sheen, creating a fusion that defies easy categorization. c/o Syndicate Management
