Listen to DJ NOT PORTER ROBINSON’s Remix of “Get Your Wish”
Porter Robinson is playing a light-hearted prank on his followers by releasing a new remix for his track “Get Your Wish” by an artist called DJ NOT PORTER ROBINSON. It’s the equivalent of a superhero putting on a mustache and calling it a disguise, but we can’t help but love the jest. Robinson got his fans to play along after announcing across his socials that this remix wasn’t made by him, which even caused him to trend on Twitter. The remix speeds up the tempo of the production and pitches up the voice even higher, creating an upbeat styling that feels anime-inspired. He traded the more melodic, atmospheric tones for bright, glitched-out effects, changing the mood of the track and bringing a breezy feel to the highly introspective song. Robi...

DAVID ELLEFSON: How ALICE IN CHAINS Ended Up Opening For MEGADETH, SLAYER And ANTHRAX
In a new interview with “The Network317 Podcast”, David Ellefson was asked to name a band that opened for MEGADETH that really “blew his socks off.” He responded (see video below): “I already knew of PANTERA — I was buddies with them; I had already jammed on stage with them — so when they came out with us, I already knew who they were and that they were really coming up the ranks. Same as STONE TEMPLE PILOTS; they were a new band. KORN, I remember getting the CD. Our management had sent out CDs and said, ‘Hey, here’s three or four bands that are in consideration. Why don’t you guys listen to ’em and see which ones you like?’ And I remember KORN was so wack. I mean, that first album, you’re, like, ‘This is bizarre.̵...
