It’s shaping up to be another meteoric month for Marshmello after the masked producer dropped his second high-profile collaborative track in less than a week. Following up on “Hitta” alongside Eptic and Juicy J, Mello has now joined forces with Nitti Gritti and Megan Thee Stallion for a club-ready collaboration called “Bad Bitches,” which will appear on his upcoming Shockwave LP. Seeing these three artists in the title, we didn’t necessarily expect house to be the genre of choice, but Marshmello is is known to keep his fans on their toes. Similar to his production efforts on the ferocious “Hitta,” his latest single harkens back to the superstar producer’s dance music roots, albeit in a much different capacity. The t...

It’s his first solo album in a decade. Additionally, Buckingham disclosed dates for a tour to launch on Sept. 1 in Milwaukee and will run through Dec. 20, concluding at a stop in Boulder, Colorado. “‘I Don’t Mind,’ like many of the songs on the new album, is about the challenges couples face in long-term relationships. Over time, two people inevitably find the need to augment their initial dynamic with one of flexibility, an acceptance of each others’ flaws and a willingness to continually work on issues; it is the essence of a good long-term relationship,” Buckingham said of the song in a statement.” This song cel...
Known for her characteristically groovy blend of house and techno, Korean electronic superstar Peggy Gou has at last returned from a two-year hiatus from solo releases. Released June 7th via her Berlin-based imprint Gudu Records, “Nabi” is a collaboration with OHHYUK that comes after 2019’s Moment EP, which included the smash single “Starry Night.” Easygoing and sonically rich, “Nabi” is a blissful arrangement of interweaving percussive elements and bright, melodic chords. Its name translates to “butterfly” in Korean, perfectly reflecting its resonant soundscape of glittering synths. Meanwhile, Gou’s husky vocal tone pairs seamlessly with OHHYUK’s hypnotic flows. According to Gou’s social media...

With Exit Wounds (the band’s first album since 2012) due out on July 9 via New West Records, the Wallflowers just released the third song from the album ahead of their appearance on The Late, Late Show with James Corden on Tuesday (June 8). “Who’s That Man Walking ‘Round My Garden” sees Jakob Dylan’s momentum continue. The timeless Americana rock sound the band is known for fuses with a little extra guitar-driven funkiness on the latest track, complete with a singalong chorus and Dylan’s signature vocals. “The garden referenced in ‘Who’s that Man Walking ‘Round My Garden’ isn’t one you’d find in your backyard. The garden is whatever you hold dear and find worthy of protecting. Might be a woman, could be your future, may be your peace of mind. Keep out of mine and I’ll k...
Following the April release of “Realest,” rising Vancouver-based house producer Nostalgix is already back for more with her new EP, Black Mirror. Released June 6th via Zeds Dead’s venerated Deadbeats banner, the record features two new tracks. Black Mirror pulls its underground edge from booming combinations of rave sirens, rapid percussion lines and pulsing basslines. Its titular track—with hip-hop artist Wasiu—builds on an eerie synth soundscape, while “Undercover” with the UK-based Bigredcap is a scintillating blend of bass house, grime and rap. In addition to the new EP, Nostalgix released a self-directed music video for “Black Mirror,” shot by Leesa Weighill. Inspired by The Matrix, it includes a combina...

Alesso is set to reinvigorate the dancefloor with his latest two track offering, Progresso Vol. 2, which picks back up right where he left the series with its 2019 debut. With this series, Alesso is temporarily setting aside the anthemic, singalong-style vocals of “Midnight” with Liam Payne and, more recently, “Going Dumb” with CORSAK and Stray Kids, two of the superstar producer’s most notable released in the last year. Alesso brings a renewed energy to the dancefloor with the clean cut, pumping percussive rhythms of “Together,” an instrumental house track that is a direct appeal to the clubbing crowd. On the flip side, “Again” finds a slightly moodier tone and strikes a more techno-heavy instrumental balance, characterized...
Since early last year, David Guetta and MORTEN have been presenting their freshly minted “future rave” sound to the masses. They recently collided on “Save My Life” with Lovespeake, followed by “Dreams” with Lanie Gardner. Today they return once again for “Impossible” with John Martin. The unmistakable fusion of distinct and varied sounds acts as the centerpiece of “Impossible.” Martin’s signature tenor effortlessly guides listeners through a pounding bassline and whirling synths, putting all three artists’ signature sounds on display. Over the past year, Guetta and MORTEN have unveiled a handful of hit collaborations to propagate their patented “future rave” sound, including a massive EP. Fans can ex...
