With the recent unveiling of Tomorrowland’s 2023 lineup, it’s only fitting that we get a collab from two of the festival’s favorite artists, Lucas & Steve and Yves V. The two Dutch acts have joined forces on “After Midnight.” Featuring vocals from Tik Tok sensation Xoro and a sample from Robert Miles’ classic trance track, “Children,” “After Midnight” pays homage to the old school, all while ushering in a fresh, pop-leaning sound. The track comes right out of the gates with light pads and hi-hats mixed over the iconic piano notes of “Children.” All the while Xoro hits us with…
As the month of January progresses, the lineup drops keep coming at a furious pace. Both Tomorrowland and Movement Detroit just recently dropped their upcoming lineups. However, if you’re Insomniac, and you put on dozens of shows not just in their Southern California homebase, but, increasingly nationwide, lineup announcements are a year round thing. Enter the freshly dropped lineup for Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge. Alice continues down the rabbit hole at the iconic venue in Washington state. Afrojack, Dillon Francis, Flosstradamus, Kx5 (Kaskade x deadmau5), marshmello, Subtronics and Timmy Trumpet are among the huge names featured on this years’…

It’s a mesmerizing collaboration with their studio mates Penelope Isles, who deliver a sensational vocal on top of a pensive, spellbinding backbeat that ensnares your imagination into an eight minute wonderland. “Are You Alive came about when I had the instrumental and felt it could do with a delicate vocal.

DJ Horizon is one of the most popular R&B/Hip-Hop DJs in the challenging entertainment industry. You may be wondering why he is making headlines. Is he really a genius on the decks, or did he get lucky? In reality, both are true. His rising star was fueled by a growing list of festival performances and headlining sets at mainstream clubs in the US. DJ Horizon started his career at the tender age of 14, telling how passionate he is about what he does. However, getting into the entertainment industry at such a young age did have drawbacks. DJ Horizon says…

If you were wondering whether the deluge of new Skrillex music would stop or slow down after January, here’s your answer. For the fifth week of the year, Skrillex has dropped his fifth single, this time teaming up with Palestinian singer Nai Barghouti for “Xena.” The track has clear Middle Eastern, almost Indian influence, especially in the drums and rhythm, not to mention Nai’s impressive vocal range and style. Beginning with an extremely minimal trap beat, it later moves into a hard dance section that should absolutely kick any crowd into overdrive when it hits. Check it out below! …
We’re no stranger to what you would call “serious” artists suddenly releasing a song that showed off their real-life personality. Dillon Francis, Kill The Noise, Salvatore Ganacci… honestly, a lot of the old OWSLA contingent made a name for themselves with these sort of antics. Lately, music has felt a bit more serious overall, but we’re glad that some of that ethos exists in the ether, especially with TYNAN’s new song, “Ducks On Acid.” It began as little more than thinking, “what if…” “I was walking around a park near my house on a brisk fall morning when I happened…

We still remember when Virtual Self b2b G Jones was first announced for last year’s return of Second Sky. It was the epitome of, “Holy shit, really? This is really happening?!” It was the first Virtual Self set in a couple years, and a rare b2b for G Jones outside of Eprom. The festival went down last October, including sets from RL Grime, Skrillex, and the man Porter Robinson himself. Back then, Skrillex hadn’t yet started his deluge of new music, so that was pretty cool — but he’d already been a surprise guest at the festival before. Virtual Self…
