EDC Reveals New & Improved Camping for 2019 Festival

Camp EDC debuted in 2018 and was far from perfect. Long wait times the first day forced many to turn back to the strip and get hotels for the night; others experienced issues with their ShiftPods like missing amenities or power problems. Of course, this was the first time Camp EDC had ever been executed, and some hiccups were to be expected. Thankfully, for 2019, it looks like there are going to be a lot of new features, improved amenities, redesigned components, and additional conveniences. Most importantly on the list, the amount of lanes for ShiftPod campers checking in...

MUST WATCH: Gerald Helps Dillon Francis Pick Out His Coachella Outfit

Leave it to Dillon Francis to take something like Coachella and make it even better. The producer is about to perform both weekends of the music festival. Count on him to bring the bangers — and more importantly, the fashion. Only at Coachella does “Who are you seeing?” comes second to “What are you wearing?” Dillon knows this best, which is exactly why he’s enlisting his BFF Gerald to help him pick out a Coachella outfit. Cue the fashion show. He tries out the usual go-to festival looks — flower crown, tie dye, midriff showing (but not too much), etc. But,...

15-Year-Old Dies After Taking 6x The "Safe" Dose of Ecstasy At A Show

Jackson Gibbons, a 15-year-old, died at under-18 rave at Lakota nightclub in Bristol in 2018. His parents reported him missing on April 2, 2018, after he phoned them and told them he had taken drugs, but would not tell them where he was. An inquest this week at Avon Coroner’s Court in Bristol revealed that Gibbons died as a result of taking ecstasy at “six times what would be considered a ‘safe’ level of the drug in his blood and was seen ‘shaking violently’ and ‘struggling to breathe.’” A friend who was with Gibbons neglected to call an ambulance or alert...

Ramzoid levels up with new single "BALL & CHAIN"

Ramzoid is one of the most unique producers in the game right now. His forward thinking music and fashion sense helps him stand out from the crowd. Both of those unique abilities are shining on his music video for “BALL & CHAIN”. The video follows Ramzoid as proceeds through different levels he’s using to recover after a breakup. The Minecraft aesthetic fits in well with the narrative and is a nice additional touch. The song itself features big 808s and glittery synths as well as Ramzoid’s own vocals. Check out the video below and pick up your copy here.

His production has always blown me away but these are the days that he is honing his inner songwriter and taking to new heights with his music! Making his top 14 radio debut in Canada with his last single “Wish You Well,” he’s glad to be releasing another eclectic radio smash. Famba never disappoints with the gorgeous tones and groove that he creates.

Game of Thrones is going all out for its final season. While the lead characters are gunning for the throne, The Weeknd, SZA, and Travis Scott are teaming up to bring a new song to the wildly popular HBO series. Generally speaking, the show tends to go with intense, theatrical productions that compliment the battle scenes and everything else that plays out on screen.

The The Weeknd x SZA x Travis Scott collab started as a mere rumor on and a Travis Scott...

New Avicii Album Is His "Best Music In Years"

Shortly after Avicii’s death in 2018, Geffen A&R Neil Jacobson spoke to Variety in an interview and called the music Avicii had been working on his “best music in years.” “We were working on it and it was his best music in years, honestly. And I know because I all of his albums,” he said at the time. “He was so inspired. He was so psyched. We had done a month of grinder sessions. We had to actually put end times on the sessions because Tim would just work for 16 hours straight, which was his nature. You had to pull...

Medasin & Felly unite for a breezy single "At Fault"

Medasin’s sound is continually evolving. He started out making trap bangers at the beginning of his career. He then shift gears with “Daydream” and his debut project “Irene” to a much more chill and jazzy sound. Now he’s teamed up with surf trap star Felly for a jam that will be on repeat all summer long. The song is as smooth as butter and the two artist’s chemistry is on full display. Medasin’s dreamy synths play off of Felly’s flow magically. Couple that with some soft percussion and you have the perfect song to cruise down the street with...
