When ZHU and Tinashe released their hit track “ONLY,” it was clear these two had undeniable chemistry in the studio. The enigmatic producer is back to reinforce that point with his new remix of Tinashe’s “Die a Little Bit” featuring South London rapper Ms Banks.

Yellow Claw and Gammer’s “Here to Stay” Receives Nasty Trap Flip from Dirty Audio
Bass music kingpin Dirty Audio has unveiled the latest trap masterstroke to hit his catalog, his filthy new remix of Yellow Claw and Gammer‘s “Here to Stay (feat. Nanami).” Considering the talent of its creators, the original tune was massive in its own right, but Dirty Audio’s flip gives it a more modern hybrid trap feel by replacing its cinematic components with bass music elements. The first drop features downright nasty sound design, with rollicking synth stabs layered over crunchy saw patches. Dirty Audio then switches it up for the second drop, opting for a rave-ready four-on-the-floor rhythm that yearns for the warehouses of pre-pandemic yesteryear before closing out the remix by bringing it all home with a frenetic third and final drop. Along with ...
Teddy Killerz Drop Explosive New “Panic Attack” EP
Russian and Ukranian trio Teddy Killerz have been a staple in the neurofunk and drum & bass scene for quite some time now. Since 2012, the group has been cranking out some of the genre’s heaviest and most imaginative sounds, like their remix of Skrillex and Damian Marley‘s “Make It Bun Dem,” and their debut album Nightmare Street in 2017. The Killerz are now back with an explosive new EP. Panic Attack is a four-song release that packs some serious punch. The title track kicks things off in a big way, with crunchy, grinding reese bass and some swingy drum breaks that give the track a unique groove. The vocal samples deepen the intensity, at one point claiming, “You’re just gonna lose control,” certifying that “Pani...
Flume’s Highly Anticipated Remix of Eiffel 65’s “Blue” Mysteriously Vanishes from Beatport
EDM superstar Flume recently took on one of dance music’s most recognizable anthems ever, serving up a remix of the Eiffel 65 classic “Blue (Da Ba Dee).” After he teased the remix on his Instagram, it was actually posted to Beatport yesterday, July 1st. However, just a short time after going live, Flume’s “Blue” remix seems to have completely vanished from the Internet. Beatport searches offer no help in finding the remix, and links embedded into news stories now produce a 404 error. On YouTube, a slew of imitation remixes have appeared, calling to mind the age of LimeWire track misnomers and misdirecting marketing attempts by bedroom producers. Searches of Flume’s social channels also yield no news of exactly wh...

mau5 fans, rejoice, because deadmau5 and The Neptunes have revealed the official music video for their collaborative hit “Pomegranate.” Serendipitously dropped seemingly out of the blue, the video is a breakneck ride through the kaleidoscopic minds of some of the most gifted artists in contemporary music. The trio of artists thrust the funky, disco-inspired tune into the backdrop of a polychromatic animated fantasy world, making for a trippy audiovisual journey. The visuals look like a marriage between Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Wreck-It Ralph, as deadmau5 races through iridescent, intricately designed forests in his custom whips that mutate into ladybugs, spaceships, and Transformers-like vehicles. You can check out the video below and stay tuned for ...
