AWAY Drops "Too Close" With Midoca & Dark Waves

It’s no exaggeration to say that AWAY is a favorite of many of our staff at Your EDM. Though his releases might be a bit rarer than we’d prefer, they’re an absolute treat whenever we have the privilege of getting something new. While the world was busy paying attention to Ultra this past weekend, he dropped a new single called “Too Close” with Midoca and Dark Waves. We’re only just now catching up with it, but better late than never. “Too Close” is a dark and beautiful song, painted with melancholy. Like much of AWAY’s music, he’s never afraid...

Andy King Actually Went To Ultra 2019 To “Take Notes”

Ultra’s shuttle service at the end of day 1 earned it the hashtag #FyreFestival2 on social media. The denunciation was ultimately unearned as the festival quickly improved its shuttle service for day 2, and even more so on day 3. But the irony was not lost on the universe as Andy King was attending the festival, the first since Fyre. You might not recognize the name immediately, but King was the “dick sucking guy” in the Netflix documentary about the festival. In an Instagram post on Sunday, he posted a picture of himself at Ultra’s main stage with the...

Your EDM Premiere: G-Rex – Ladi

Detroit producer and DJ G-Rex is about to launch his brand new EP Requiem. With an incredible year or so behind him, including a collaboration with PEEKABOO and nailing his support shows for Liquid Stranger’s tour, G-Rex releases the brutally dominant set on April 5th. The first track from the EP, ‘Ladi,’ is coming to you as our premiere today. Grating samples, snatched drums and punching vocal interjections are the order of the day here, and it sets the tone for the rest of the collection. In light of the upcoming release, G-Rex says: “Really excited to finally get this...

Skrillex Finally Cut His Hair & He Looks CRAZY Different

Elton John’s glasses. Slash’s hat. Malaa’s balaclava. ATLien’s masks. Black Tiger Sex Machine’s masks. Golden Features’ mask. Each of these artists has a specific feature or piece of clothing, or a mask, that defines their brand. For Skrillex, apart from his music and genial demeanor, it’s been his hair. That side-swept, undercut, flowing long hair influenced so many people in 2011-2012 to do the same that we couldn’t even believe it. However, after two appearances in Miami this past weekend and a busy year ahead, Skrillex has seemingly decided to chop off the locks in an effort to rebrand...

Deadmau5 & Marshmello Make Peace And Announce Forthcoming Collab

It’s well established that Deadmau5 and Marshmello haven’t had the greatest relationship over the years. The two have been at each other’s throats in the most contentious of ways, generally getting into it on Twitter. However, a new tweet from deadmau5 suggests that the two were able to find some common ground while at Ultra over the weekend and, here’s the kicker… they’re making a track together. Sources tell us the two were spotted palling around in the artist area, though both of them kept their masks on as a sort of negotiation tool, perhaps to “mask” their real...
