The blurring of lines between the worlds of rap and dance music is nothing new. Many of hip-hop’s first songs drew their inspiration from the rhythmic thump of dance music, flipping samples from songs that had the specific goal of getting a crowd moving. So it’s no surprise that the latest modern mutation of dance music—often umbrellaed under the ambiguous and argument-starting term “EDM”—has crossed over and even been absorbed into hip-hop. This type of cross-genre pollination is essential to hip-hop. With EDM hybrids continuing to rise, it’s undeniable that we’ve witnessed the creation of outstanding records highlighting some of…
Have you ever spaced out with a song on repeat, potentially for hours, and you look up and realize it’s been the same song? And yet, you’re not tired of it? That is “Technicolour Psychic Vision” from Flux Pavilion in a nutshell. After transitioning to a bit of a different sound in his 2021 album .wav, “TPV” is a welcome reminder of his Tesla sound from 2015 that had hits like “Vibrate,” “International Anthem,” and “Who Wants to Rock.” The repeated vox, hard guitar riffs, and Flux’s own vocals shining through in the pre-drop, plus the rolling drums, the bass… everything is…
Two years ago today, Garrett Lockhart, better known as i_o, passed away. Only 30 years old, his career was really just beginning, having graduated from Icon Collective under the name Fawks and transitioning to more techno-leaning productions under his new persona. Today, in remembrance, in honor, in memory of i_o and his legacy and work, comes an album of work from before his death with Lights. Warehouse Summer, what would technically be considered his debut album, spans 14 tracks, with many of the track titles, taking 20/20 hindsight into account, conveying particular emotions: “Don’t Let Me Go To Sleep,” “Prayers,” “Better…

“Rumble,” the collaboration between Skrillex and Fred again.. with Flowdan and Elley Duhé, has been, for lack of a better word, rumbling around in sets for a while now. The two have become so close of late so as to actually swap homes for some creative inspiration. We hoped that the collab would see the light of day eventually. But knowing the two main artists involved, who likely have hundreds of IDs and works in progress under their umbrella, we never wanted to count our chickens before they hatched. However, now with the World Cup happening, the official @england TikTok…
G Jones has always been one of the most technically impressive producers out there. Every time he releases a track or project, that notion is more and more heavily reinforced, especially with his most recent album, The Ineffable Truth, as well as his recent mixtape with Eprom, Disk Doctors. This year, after taking a break during the pandemic with no releases since 2019, he’s put out five singles and two EPs, including today’s release of Illusory Tracks. Featuring his collaborations with Eprom, “R.A.V.E.,” and ISOxo, “Say What,” the 6-track project breezes through different tempos. Things stay incredibly hype in the first half,…

Rezz has gone from rising midtempo producer to legitimate headliner in the time since her first release in 2015. Combining her unique branding, relatively transparent personality on social media, and her hypnotizing live sets, it’s really no surprise. One of her biggest supporters since the beginning has been deadmau5, and though the two have appeared on stage together before, like at North Coast 2021, there hasn’t yet been an official b2b between the two. That seems like it’s set to change next year, as Rezz revealed that it’s officially going to happen at a festival next year that the two…
Sullivan King’s next album, Thrones Of Blood, is officially due out March 2023, as announced with his first single, “The Dead March,” with Ray Volpe. Now, he’s back with the next single, teaming up once again with Wooli for “Let Me Go.” The two have paired up once before, releasing “Don’t Forget Me” on Monstercat. Sullivan King and Wooli seem to have found a formula that works in their releases, pairing Sully’s voice and an anthemic, melodic first section with a heavier drop, leading into another melodic outro. Speaking of the track, Sullivan King shares, “Adam and I wrote “Let Me…

This time around, Nines (who recently started working with rising independent label Swaggertown Records) is teaming up with Heath…
