    Going back again to the topic of NFTs, this time it is more of my subjective view or a little rant that has been popping in my head. If you missed out on our earlier posts about the notorious digital tokens, in short (and entirely inaccurate, for the sake of brevity), these items are same

    “It’s intense, high-energy, and fun”. While only two people found it helpful as a lonesome brief review for a vinyl edition of Matrix 1999’s score, this excerpt will perhaps be met with an endearing affection among the avid fanatics. Roll back to the final day of the last March before the turn of the 21st

    If you were perhaps curious on what transpired with Dance music in 2021, look no further. Beatport has drawn the curtains from the list of aliases and various tracks that trended on the website, with slightly unexpected results. As if an omen to buzzing dance-floors for the coming year, “Marea (We’ve Lost Dancing)” from Fred

    After receiving sizeable number of requests to publish my opinions on the “Mystica Chapter 2”, it was during writing it that I realized about broadening the scope towards a more generic overview towards Blasterjaxx’s work this year. That is because I am mildly annoyed. By principle, I despise artists who clearly shove out as much

    A year ago, the beautiful “Christmas Time” by DV&LM, Brennan Heart, Armin van Buuren and Jeremy Oceans came out. I was rather sure that the song would become a Christmas hit of sorts… However, one rotation around the sun later, the collaboration hasn’t achieved great results, with “only” 500k views on YouTube and way lesser

    Today I stumbled upon RoyaltyExchange, a place where bidders can buy the royalties on many famous hits. For example, someone bought the royalties for “Empire State Of Mind” by Jay-Z for $190,500, or the entire “musical” catalogue of the Logan Brothers in 2020 for $26,000. Lately, Kygo’s hit “Firestone”, arguably the most famous Tropical House

    Should we set a limit to crowded events? After having read about the horrific incident caused at the Astroworld concert in Texas, with over ten people passing away and hundreds injured because of disastrous crowd management, it left me traumatized. Worse thing is, these type of occurrences are becoming not too rare in the recent

    Years of radio-silence later, the dance music veterans Swedish House Mafia made their hyped musical return this year. Lifting the curtains from three already well-received singles from their upcoming album “Paradise Again”, the Nordic icons have shown no signs of slacking, further announcing a global transatlantic tour that will follow in the wake of next

    As obvious as it could get, a bunch of new Squid Game remixes have already emerged in the past weeks. Let’s be honest: many artists jumped on the bandwagon to get that moolah, but this time around there’s a lot of quality put in the edits for this trending Netflix’s hit soundtrack. We have three

    With a post on his socials, Mike Williams announced a temporary suspension from all official activities including live performances and releases, for the foreseeable future.   Visualizza questo post su Instagram   Un post condiviso da Mike Williams (@mikewilliams) This decision caught me off-guard, as the Amsterdam based act seemed to be in a great

    As the dust from the dance events held in Amsterdam settle, with a particularly disliked DJ magazine poll declaring their results, we are finally well over into the fourth quarter of this year. Although I wasn’t present at the Electronic music capital, social media affirmed that natives and tourists both flocked and partied hard after

    Yeah, we hear you. We understand how it feels giving in to the mundane nature of everyday, listening to the same music as it almost starts to feel like you’re basically running the endless treadmill that is life. But, don’t worry. We have something special to talk about. Something to spice up your routine, all

    Everything started from a submission by Manche and DJ GUY, “All I Need”, which I totally recommend if you are looking for some “out of the box” Trance Big Room. No spoilers! However, I decided to broaden my perspective and explore the album where “All I Need” is included: a joint ADE Sampler from Intensity

    Today we are here for a brief reflection at Hardwell’s appearance during the last Revealed ADE event. I wasn’t expecting that, and was pleasantly surprised by the following 20 minutes long B2B event. A bunch of my favourite artists (Blasterjaxx, KAAZE, Dr. Phunk, Blackcode and more) had much fun together with the fans. Sure, Hardwell

    The week of ADE is upon us, and despite the concerns of it getting postponed, multiple events are happening. With a hectic schedule heading for the DJs after their long hiatuses, this weekend has also found itself packed with a myriad of releases from Jaxx & Vega, Martin Garrix, KSHMR and more. Let’s get into

    The decrease in the quality of the Dutch label is not particularly evident, since Afrojack performed relatively well this year, keeping a balance between commercial hits and underground works, including his Tech alias Kapuchon. However today we discuss Wall Recordings, the fourteen-year-old sub-label under Spinnin’. In my opinion, it has lost its power in the

    There is a new mania ravaging out there, and I suppose most of you already know that we are talking about: the new Netflix show Squid Game is an exciting exploration of the human nature and its crazy, dark and egoistic sides. Also, no spoilers here! We are here to analyze its (underrated) soundtrack “Pink

    After Revealed Family’s project, we are here with our unrequested opinion. A few days back, I happened to notice about initiation of a new radio show from our friends over at Revealed Family, making me muse about the last time I actually cared about one. Their marketing for the show pitched the very first line

    If you were happening save a few bucks and buy a brand new DJing equipment and headline that imaginary festival of yours, that will have to wait some time. Supplies have increased in retail prices due to current global situation, and might continue well over the next coming months. This hasn’t happened only to this

    Well there. “Been some time” is a massive understatement to make, especially since the time last episode saw lights of the day. Anyways, tenth episode couldn’t happen at a weirder time, but here goes. Checked the previous Friday list as usual, and acts such as D.O.D., Steve Aoki and Love Regenerator and more have been

    Dada Life have always impressed me as a long-time fan, as the Swedish veterans have revamped the Electro House scene in their humourous ways, notable ones ranging from using dirty leads and banana branding. Following the near nonsensical concept of Dadaism, their classics (such as “Feed The Dada” or “Kickout The Epic Motherf**ker”) amazed me
