Noisia Reveal the Last Chapter In Their Saga, a Third and Final Album
“In the end, we didn’t manage to figure things out. But we did get closer.” The final chapter in the Noisia saga is officially underway. After initially planning to disband in 2020 with a final run of shows, the trio had to prolong their farewell when COVID-19 shut down the live music industry. After live events gradually began to return in the fall of 2021, they announced their final festival run would take place this summer. Now, Noisia are giving fans one last hurrah before they ride off into the sunset: Closer, their third and final album. Alongside the announcement of the release date, Noisia unveiled the complete tracklist for their final album. They’ve chosen to incorporate a large list of friends for their farewell transmission, as 14 of the al...

Flume Drops Two Mind-Bending Singles From Forthcoming Third Album, “Palaces”: Listen
The rollout of Flume‘s Palaces continues to unravel with kaleidoscopic quality. Two new singles from Flume’s first full-length project since 2019’s Hi This Is Flume mixtape have hit streaming services, including the album’s titular track featuring Damon Albarn. A lingering piano solo coupled with crescendoing soundscapes unfurls to introduce a melancholic vocal from Albarn, who appears roughly midway through “Palaces.” The Gorillaz frontman’s words resonate with a psychedelic, choral-like effect as Flume blasts into a big instrumental finish with lively drums and bursting synth chords. Flume doesn’t skimp on bringing equally vibrant synth work to “ESCAPE,” a collaboration alongside ascendant bass music produc...
The Road to ODESZA’s Fourth Album Continues With Haunting Single, “Behind The Sun”
After the release of ODESZA‘s latest single from their fourth album, one thing has never been more clear: they won’t settle for the ordinary. The tandem have never shied away from roaming new sonic frontiers in their illustrious career, but The Last Goodbye is perhaps their biggest canvas for exploration. Case in point are the album cuts “The Last Goodbye” and “Love Letter,” which embraced house music in a way ODESZA never have before. But their new single, a subversive single called “Behind The Sun,” is markedly more haunting than its predecessors. “Behind The Sun” samples a song recorded by Simin Ghanem, an Iranian classicial singer born in 1944. Ghanem’s Persian chants bellow through ODESZA’s spellbinding sound...
“A Testament to My Resiliency”: Blunts & Blondes On His Debut Album and Cannabis’ Impact On His Life
Today, Blunts & Blondes released his debut album Story of a Stoner—and fittingly on 4/20, the de facto national holiday dedicated to stoners. “I just hope people accept it,” the electronic music star tells EDM.com. “I hope people like it. It’s not just EDM, it’s not just rave music. So I hope people take it for what it is and listen to it.” One of the most genuine cuts from the 13-track album is the confessional “4:30,” a languid tune featuring Cotis, who croons, “I just smoke all my days away. I don’t feel nothing, yeah. I just smoke all my pain away.” The song’s aching lyrics provide fans a glimpse into life following a breakup as its protagonist searches for redemption from someone they presumably hurt. Taking the lack of response to heart, they re...

Marc Rebillet is known for offering fans unique live music experiences, but he’s outdone himself this time. Loop Daddy is hosting a contest that will allow 12 lucky fans to watch him record his debut album in Brooklyn, New York.

A small group of people will be invited to join me in my new studio and watch me record some shit,” Rebillet said in a press release. “This is a real studio session, not a performance. We’ll hang out, have a drink between takes, maybe some special guests will stop by.” Marc Rebillet has announced the first-ever live debut album recor...
New Teaser From The Chainsmokers Reveals “One of the Hardest Drops” From New Album: Watch
Despite their continued mainstream success, it seems The Chainsmokers haven’t lost their bite. The duo are on the cusp of the release of their fourth album, titled So Far So Good, and they’ve already begun road-testing previously unheard cuts from the effort. The latest example of the duo rinsing their latest and greatest on stage was reposted to their TikTok account. The brief teaser reveals what The Chainsmakers are calling “one of the hardest drops on the album,” showcasing a scorching trap drop buoyed by thumping 808s. Coincidentally, given the reveal of the album’s tracklist earlier this month, we have a pretty good idea the track in question is coincidentally titled “Testing.” Check out the clip below.

Listen to Swedish House Mafia’s Stunning Debut Album, a Reminder That Even the Most Broken Can Heal With Time
And just like that, they’re back. It’s hard to believe we’re just now hearing the debut album from Swedish House Mafia. Sauntering at the pinnacle of an eruptive EDM boom in the early 2010s, the trio had reached the promised land on the heels of their many generational dance anthems. But a fractured dynamic in the band led to its shocking disbandment, which deflated the electronic music community like a left hook from Mike Tyson. And as Sebastian Ingrosso, Axwell, and Steve Angello explored solo endeavors, the group’s detachment ultimately settled in as an axiom that their once-harmonic relationship had gone irretrievably sour. But even the most broken things can heal with time. That brings us to today, when Swedish House Mafia finally released Paradise Ag...
Eptic Channels Chaos On Unrelenting Debut Album, “The End Of The World”: Listen
Eptic has long been regarded as a leader in bass music, consistently writing festival favorites while finding new ways to innovate and evolve his distinct sound. His debut album The End Of The World has now arrived, further cementing his legacy. To put it simply, The End Of The World is Eptic’s most complete project yet. Spanning 10 tracks, the Belgian producer has channeled his sound into an unrelenting conduit of chaos. One thing is for sure: he has never been more fearless in his approach to songwriting. “I would be lying if I said writing this album went smooth. Making this collection of music has been the most difficult and frustrating project I’ve worked on in my entire life,” Eptic said in a press release shared with EDM.com. “It’s literal blood, sweat, ...
Chase & Status Announce 6th Album, Release Drum & Bass Single “Mixed Emotions”
If you were lucky enough to attend a random rave thrown by Chase & Status‘ in late 2021, you might just be featured on the cover of their upcoming album. The legendary U.K. duo’s new album, What Came Before, appears to be borne out of a desire to capture the essence of rave energy and emotion in its rawest forms. Back in November, they hosted a rave in order to capture an image for the record’s cover, deciding to ban cellphones at the event. “We wanted to create an image that captured the very human compulsion to gather in a dark room and dance and sweat,” Chase & Status said in a press release shared with EDM.com by Casablanca Records. “Such scenes have a different weight to them after they were off the table for a...
On New “DREAM SOUP” Album, Mindchatter Muses on the Inevitability of “Cosmic Slush”
From the very first notes of his sophomore album, DREAM SOUP, Mindchatter evokes an uneasy thematic contrast between the ego and the corporeal, identity and perception. “I forgot who I was. I wish that that would last, but now I’m back,” he croons over luscious bass beats on DREAM SOUP‘s opening track, “Human Shape.” A sample of a person’s heavy breathing lays beneath these lyrics, seemingly bracing themselves for what’s to come: “My skin is really clay. I mold myself to human shape for practicality,” Mindchatter moodily muses. It’s been just three years since Mindchatter released his debut single, “Trippy.” Now, with DREAM SOUP, out via Mind of a Genius, we see him all grown up, gently probing th...
The Chainsmokers Reveal Tracklist, Release Date, Story Behind New Album, “So Far So Good”
The Chainsmokers‘ fourth album is officially on the map. Titled So Far So Good, the LP is The Chainsmokers’ first since 2019’s chart-topping World War Joy. The tandem shared an official album trailer today, wherein they reveal the inspiration behind the 13-track album as well as its release date of May 13th. According to The Chainsmokers’ Drew Taggart, the album’s name derives from a quote from La Haine, a French crime drama film released in 1995. They found optimism in a particular quote, which they believe encapsulates the album’s subject matter: “Heard about the guy who fell off a skyscraper? On his way down past each floor, he kept saying to reassure himself, ‘So far so good… so far so good… so far so good.’ How you...
