David Guetta and MORTEN Share Preview of Collab With Viral “Dreams” Singer Lanie Gardner
When Lanie Gardner posted her cover of Fleetwood Mac‘s iconic track “Dreams” to TikTok, little did she know what would come of the decision. After her seemingly innocuous upload went viral, Gardner’s world flipped upside down. Within ten days, she signed a deal with Jonas Group Entertainment—the management arm of the Jonas Brothers—further validating the power of TikTok and its formidable influence in the music industry. It’s clear that the 21-year old pop artist has swerved onto a road to fame, and the first exit she’s taking is into the EDM landscape. Gardner caught the attention of dance music stars David Guetta and MORTEN, who have tapped the young songstress for what looks to be an electronic rendition of the Fleetwood Mac classic tha...
Native Instruments Warns of Irreparable Damage to DJ Controllers With Apple’s Big Sur Update
A new macOS Big Sur update is usually great news for Apple users, but those who also use Native Instruments‘ Traktor Kontrol S4 Mk3 DJ controller might want to take caution before nabbing the latest update. Native Instruments has warned of the potentially harmful effects of the update in regards to the company’s S4 Mk3 controller, which could be subjected to irreversible damage.

ACCEPT’s WOLF HOFFMANN: EDDIE VAN HALEN ‘Transformed Everything’ When He Came Along
In a new interview with Sweden’s RockSverige, ACCEPT‘s Wolf Hoffmann was asked what Eddie Van Halen meant to him as a guitar player. He responded: “Well, I guess that when he came on to the scene, it was, like, ‘What the hell’s going on? Where did this guy come from?’ I remember that very vividly, and I remember everybody wanting to be like him and play like Eddie for a while. Everybody started doing the tapping thing, me included, but I realized I can’t do that stuff. It’s not in my hands somehow, so I found another way of playing. “I grew up being inspired by other people like Ritchie Blackmore and Uli Jon Roth and other people, but not so much Eddie Van Halen,” he continued. “I would say he was giant, but you just have to...

It’s vintage Bisbal, who’s always had a flair for the dramatic.
