When Zedd bought his extravagant Beverly Hills mansion back in 2018, he had a grand time showing everyone his sparkling new property. Initially purchased for $16 million, the 9,400-square-foot house has plenty of open space, high ceilings, and all the amenities you could wish for. “He even has a room he calls his ‘Costco’ room for the specific purpose of stockpiling enough things that he never has to leave his house,” Your EDM wrote. Toward the middle of 2021, after adding about 1,600 sq ft to the property, he put the house on the market for for $26.5 million, adding…
For the last two and a half months, most of the electronic music community has been consumed by Skrillex and his unrelenting domination over the news cycle. He was dropping singles every week, announced an album, announced a show at Madison Square Garden, sold it out, dropped the album, played a show in Times Square, played the show at MSG, dropped another album mid-show. It was unavoidable. But from the beginning of the year we’ve known that there is so much more. Beyond the albums we know and are looking forward to, the wheels keep turning — cue ODESZA, who…

Almost 10 years later, the label is sticking to its mantra to explore, create…
2023 seems to be the year of breaking the mold. That couldn’t be more true with the release of this new collaboration “Twisted” from Hardwell and Will Sparks. If a collaboration from these two came out 5-7 years back, it would most likely sounded like a mix of synth-blaring big room house with the rubber-band beat and bass line of a Melbourne bounce tune. But in current year, both of these artist’s are in very different places. For one, Hardwell took a massive break from touring and signaled his return with his sophomore album. Since then, he’s dropped a few…
Multi instrumentalist, producer Ryan Farish presents “Embers and Light,” a 14 track chill electronic album, mixing digital with the sound of the violin, for an ethereal listening experience. What makes the album special is the inspiration behind it. Farish says the album was created during an intensely inspired season for him, during which he reconnected with the very first instrument he learned to play as a young musician, the violin. In addition to the violin, Ryan also used Moog’s reissued Model D, which adds to the warmth and emotions of the album. I have always been fascinated with recorded music,…
