DJ Mustard and Nick Jonas Drop a Future Bass Single… Um, What?

EDM has a way of bringing unlikely artists together. In the case of a new future bass single, two typically non-EDM artists come together. Prepare yourself for this combo: DJ Mustard and Nick Jonas. First, let’s get one thing out of the way: DJ Mustard is now Mustard. The rebranding could be one of the reasons why this Nick Jonas collaboration is so…un-Mustard-y? Titled “Anywhere,” the single equips Jonas with a future bass backdrop and autotuned vocals. Mustard has been mainly known for his hip-hop production, at least until now. And Jonas has typically stayed in the pop realm....

New Documentary Focusing Solely On Female DJs Receives Release Date [Trailer]

REZZ. Alison Wonderland. Ducky. Avalon Emerson. The Black Madonna. Nina Kraviz. Maya Jane Coles. Nicole Moudaber. These and other female DJs have changed EDM forever. But which female DJs came before them? Girl, directed by Kandeyce Jorden, is a new documentary that focuses on several female DJs. The doc began production in 2003, pretty much making it the Boyhood of EDM documentaries. It primarily captures the life of Sandra Collins, an influential DJ from the early 2000s who has played Coachella, Burning Man and other events around the world. Other DJs in the doc include DJ Rap, DJ Irene, Colette, DJ...

Papa Roach and Kayzo will soon unleash the bass heavy remix for “Last Resort” that we’ve been needing in our lives! This seems too good to be true. But from the looks of the album art, it’s not.

Through its powerful lyrics, raw emotion and relentless instrumentation, “Last Resort” made a name for itself and put Papa Roach on the map. Within just moments of hearing those opening notes of the song, listeners were at its mercy. Cut my life into pieces, this is my last...

Gucci Mane Shows Mad Love For Diplo & EDM In Autobiography

Gucci Mane is definitely down with Diplo. If it wasn’t obvious before, an excerpt from the rapper’s autobiography tells all about the direct impact that the Mad Decent producer and the EDM community had on his career — especially when times got tough. One of the DJs who was championing my music was Diplo. Apparently he was big in this scene. Hoping to further solidify my place in this world, Todd and Coach sent Diplo my a capellas from the Cold War tapes. He recruited a whole gang of DJs and made Free Gucci, a mixtape with EDM remixes...

Pendulum Drops New House Remix Of Classic "Tarantula"

Pendulum hasn’t had a lot of luck with their The Reworks album so far. Noisia’s remix of “Hold Your Colour” wasn’t close enough to the original for some, and Knife Party’s remix of “Blood Sugar” just plain wasn’t that good. So fans were hoping that the third remix, a house cut of “Tarantula” from Icarus, could turn things around. Did it? Well… kind of. “Tarantula” has always been one of Pendulum’s highest-energy tracks, pumping out ragga vibes with decidedly massive drums and synths. Its amplitude never fails to turns dance floors into mosh pits with the high tempo and explosiveness, so to...
