Dom Dolla Builds on Breakout Song “Take It” With Follow-Up Single, “Pump The Brakes”
House music star Dom Dolla has unveiled “Pump The Brakes,” a new single that is destined to be rinsed during the looming festival season. Fans of the Australian DJ and producer have been patiently awaiting the release of the track, which has been a much-requested ID throughout his livestreams this past year. Message boards have been flooded with people asking about the “car alarm track,” and now the wait is finally over after “Pump The Brakes” arrived today via RCA Records. “Pump The Brakes” feels like a clear progression from his breakout single “Take It” which came out back in 2018. The tech house jam features alien-like vocoded vocals, quirky synths, and a rumbling bass-line—all elements that have become si...

Tobtok, HUGEL and Love Harder Team Up for Lovesick Dance-Pop Anthem, “My Bed” [Premiere]
In a collaboration of grand proportions, Love Harder, HUGEL, and Tobtok have joined forces for “My Bed,” a sultry dance-pop record that will soon arrive by way of fabled dance music banner Ultra Music. Premiered today via EDM.com, “My Bed” is primed for Spotify domination due to its foot-tapping slap house arrangement. However, it’s the track’s storytelling that really shines through. In a post-cuffing season anthem for the lovelorn, the aching song tells the story of a lovesick person who can’t sleep without the comfort of their ride-or-die. RBVLN does a brilliant job with the topline, offering a stentorian vocal that mirrors the pop-house energy of music by Imanbek or Topic. His work in the chorus is something to marvel at, as it fl...

Nero’s 2021 Return Continues With Dazzling Indietronica Edit of Tame Impala’s “Disciples”
Just one day after returning from a two-year-plus hiatus with a Daft Punk remix, legendary electronic music trio Nero have struck again. Nero’s March 23rd edit of Daft Punk’s “Emotion” marked the group’s first musical release in over two years, following December 2018’s “Lullaby.” They’ve now opted to give Tame Impala‘s “Disciples” a spin, reworking the track into a riveting indietronica jam. Nero dialed up the energy, implementing a four-on-the-floor rhythm and soaring brass elements for a dazzling electronic rendition. They also noted that they used to play an older version of the remix in their shows back in 2016. After two consecutive releases in as many days, fans are now safe to expect more ne...
Beck Says That Paul McCartney’s Dance Moves Inspired Remix of ‘Find My Way’
Imagine walking into a West Hollywood club and seeing Paul McCartney and wife Nancy tearing it up on the dance floor while indie icon Beck watched? Well, it happened, and Beck, more-than-impressed with Macca’s fancy footwork, channeled that evening as inspiration for a remix of McCartney’s “Find My Way (Feat. Beck)” track. “I remember hanging out with Paul and his wife Nancy several years ago and Nancy mentioned that she wanted to go out dancing before calling it a night,” Beck recalls. “We ended up at some club in West Hollywood and I remember noticing that Paul and Nancy were TEARING IT UP – really enjoying themselves more than anyone else on the dance floor.” <!– // Brid Player Singles. var _bp = _bp||[]; _bp.push({ “div”: “Brid_10143537”, R...
Machine Gun Kelly Fires Off Cover of Edwyn Collins’ ‘A Girl Like You’
Hip-hop star turned pop-punk rocker Machine Gun Kelly has gone back to 1994 — he was just 4 years old at the time — to cover “A Girl Like You” in the trailer for the new Amazon series Paradise City. The tune was originally written and performed by Edwyn Collins, the Scottish post-punk and former Orange Juice frontman. It’s another interesting move by MGK, whose punky Tickets To My Downfall, which he created with Blink-182 drummer/impresario Travis Barker, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard last year. The LP also served as the soundtrack to an accompanying short film, Downfalls High. Last June, MGK and Barker covered Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name” during the protests. <!– // Brid Player Singles. var _bp = _bp||[]; _bp.p...

Mannequin Pussy Announce Upcoming Perfect EP, Release New Song, ‘Control’
The indie-punkers in Mannequin Pussy are back with a follow-up to 2019’s Patience, and by the sound of the new EP’s first song, they’re picking up right where they left off. The five-song venture is titled Perfect and set to release via Epitaph on May 21, and it figures to be a major release for an excellent band that’s seemed right on the verge of breaking into the mainstream for years now. Each of the band’s existing three full-lengths has garnered more praise than the last, with Patience being praised as one of the best albums to come out mere months before COVID-19 shut the world down. <!– // Brid Player Singles. var _bp = _bp||[]; _bp.push({ “div”: “Brid_10143537”, “obj”: {“id”:”25115″,”widthR...

Breaking a long period of radio silence that began in 2019, Blackmill has made his return to the airwaves with his new single, “Winston.” For the younger generation who may be unfamiliar with the British producer, nearly a decade ago, he released a number of melodic dubstep tracks that would go on to become favorites among both fans and artists alike, amassing millions of views on platforms like SoundCloud and YouTube.

Nero Return With Breathtaking Remix of Daft Punk Classic “Emotion”: Listen
Fabled electronic music trio Nero has returned with their first new track in over two years, a stunning remix of Daft Punk‘s “Emotion.” Nero announced the new remix in a heartfelt social media tribute to Daft Punk, whose shocking split sent ripples of bewilderment and admiration through the music community in February 2021. “Thank you for all the memories, inspiration and emotion,” the trio wrote. Nero’s edit of “Emotion” is nothing short of breathtaking. They managed to construct an aching dance number using the bones of the original, interpolating radiant chords and fluttering arpeggios and with Daft Punk’s vocoders in dazzling fashion. Nero beautifully oscillates between half-time and double-time with elegant finesse, cater...
Legendary Musician John Oates Joins Forces With Saxsquatch for Dance Remix of 1982 Classic “Maneater”
Legendary Rock & Roll Hall of Famer John Oates has joined forces with brass-playing sensation Saxsquatch to reimagine Hall & Oates’ 1982 classic “Maneater.” Out now via Monstercat, the unlikely fusion of the two musical greats transformed the original top-charting hit “Maneater” into a jazzy, electro-spun modern classic. Injected with club-inspired grooves and dance-floor worthy basslines, the duo put a modern spin on Hall & Oates’ iconic record and rendering it a fit for new audiences across eras and genres. While Daryl Hall handles vocals on the original single, the remix sees Oates step up to the microphone for a funky rework.
