Foo Fighters Jam Out With Muppets on New Song ‘Fraggle Rock Rock’
The latest Fraggle Rock revival, Back to the Rock, premiered on Apple TV+ yesterday, and to celebrate the occasion Foo Fighters revealed that they wrote a song for its soundtrack. Aptly titled “Fraggle Rock Rock,” the track sees Dave Grohl pay homage to the show’s original theme song while also penning some pretty wacky lyrics of his own. “We’re gonna rock our way to freedom/Gonna run right back and see ’em/ Gonna flip, flop, skippity hop/Back to Fraggle Rock,” he sings in the chorus. Jim Henson’s beloved series first aired in the mid-80s. This reboot follows the success of the Zoom-shot Fraggle Rock: Rock On! shorts that aired on Apple TV+ in 2020. “Jim Henson’s fun-loving, musical Fraggles are back!” a Back to the Rock show synopsis says. “Join Gobo, Red, Wembley, Mok...

DallasK Nabs Production Credit On Christina Aguilera and Ozuna’s Collaboration, “Santo”
DallasK has netted yet another high-profile production credit to his name with the release of Christina Aguilera and Ozuna’s brass-heavy reggaetón smash, “Santo.” The Spanish-language single is DallasK’s latest in a growing list of production and compositional credits he’s amassed amongst contemporary music artists.

As EDM increasingly became radio-friendly material throughout the 2010s, the crossover between the electronic and pop music worlds became more ...
NGHTMRE Unveils Refreshing, Collaboration-Heavy EP, “UNSOUND”
NGHTMRE has proven himself to be a master of combining heavy and blissful sounds time and time again, and his latest EP, UNSOUND, is a true testament to his versatility. Comprising four songs, UNSOUND showcases NGHTMRE’s collaborative power by way of a handful of joint tracks, which range from dubstep to future pop and more. “Signal” (with Ray Volpe) brings together chaotic sound design and gritty vocal samples for a festival-ready result, while “Euphoria” (with Rosie Darling) masterfully showcases NGHTMRE’s softer side. “Sweetest Things“ features contributions from RNSOM and Davis, who nicely gel with NGHTMRE’s production to offer a stunning combination of pop and future bass. Finally, he rounds out the record with arguably its most impressive cut, “Ring The Alarm,” a co...

I took every last penny I had and put it in this restaurant and that went under ’cause I didn’t know what I was doing.
