Blossom has big things on the horizon. Before the year’s out, she has dropped her latest single, “On My Own,” which serves as the first release from her forthcoming EP. And as she finished up her dates supporting Alan Walker on tour, she has also announced her first headlining tour beginning in 2023. The single marks a hard reset in the world of Blossom, she explains: “The world as we know it has ended and I’ve been reborn as the humanoid, Blossom, challenged to rebuild a world far away from the one we knew. Alone, I travel across the universe…
Alison Wonderland will become the latest producer to launch their own record label, following in the footsteps of Kayzo, Rezz, Subtronics, Excision, and more. As an artist, releasing music on your own label is a great way to retain power and resources of your own work. However, you’re not just releasing your own music most of the time, often intending to “give power and freedom back to the artist” at large, as Alison states in her tweet teasing the launch. Compared to major labels, the splits are often more equitable, though you’ll most of the time make that trade for…
Artist Mrronwright captures self-realization on the passionate track “Together,” led by his sweet and heartfelt vocals laid upon bouncy instrumentation. A track that captures the moments in which you find your bad habits returning to the surface yet fighting against to win control yourself, the empowering number is infused with freshness and a boost of feel-good energy. Having crafted a vibrant artistry nestled between Melodic and hip-hop, Mrron who started making music in 2010 has never tried to fit in with his genre-hopping music. After pulling us in with the genreless flow of each of his releases right up till…
Many musical artists nowadays shy away from political stances, either for fear of hurting their careers or simply for the fact that they see their jobs as a necessary distraction from the depression and discourse that can come with serious issues. With 2022 bringing war via Russia’s February invasion of Ukraine, there was an initial outpouring of support for Ukraine with artist contributing to loads of charity albums and shows, as the war has rolled on and the repercussions of speaking out have made themselves clear (especially for Russian artists), once again, the music community is going a bit quiet…
Prices for Electric Forest were sent out yesterday, which, understandably, made some people upset. The festival is a bit more expensive this year — and you can likely attribute that to any variety of factors, none of which have been explicitly stated at this time. However, today brings the “initial lineup” for the 2023 edition, which already boasts a hefty amount of artists. Joining The String Cheese Incident (performing 2 Incidents) on the top of the bill are ODESZA, Illenium, Zeds Dead, Above & Beyond, Jamie xx, Gryffin, Lane 8, REZZ, SOFI TUKKER, Goose, Ganja White Night, Chris Lake, Madeon,…
We’ve come to hold new releases from Skrillex at arm’s length. After being promised, multiple times, multiple albums, and left wanting, the easiest thing to do is not have any expectations at all so that when something does come, it still feels like a gift. (Artists don’t owe us anything, but we’ve been teased and left dry many times already.) Out of nowhere today, 100 gecs dropped a surprise EP, Snake Eyes, including a 113-second collab with none other than Skrillex. Of course the production is incredible, and everyone is talking about the snare. WHAT THE FUCK @100gecs @Skrillex THIS SNARE…
Over time, we’ve seen plenty of legendary acts in dance music team up after years to create something wonderful. Today we see the cycle continue as RL Grime and NERO team up for the very first time for their debut collaboration, “Renegade.” The track was teased around Halloween weekend as RL Grime headlined the Forum in Los Angeles and dropped his Halloween XI mixtape, with NERO also playing the song at Red Rocks in support of deadmau5. Now, it’s officially out in all its glory and we couldn’t be happier. Neither artist had much to say about the collab as…
Not many artists had a bigger 2022 than Maz, his “Banho de Folhas” remix became a worldwide hit, recieving strong supports from incredible artists such as Black Coffee, Lee Burridge, Damian Lazarus, Matador, Stephan Jolk, D-Nox, Gorje Hewek, Dosem, Durante, Simon Doty, Enamour, to mention a few. “Banho de Folhas” took the Brazilian sound identity all around the Globe and consolidated Maz’s name internationally. The Brazilian Afro House song broke the EDM bubble and reached international pop stars such as Drake; he was recorded dancing to the song in Saint Tropez during a Keinemusik Crue’s show. Following that, the Brazilian…
