  • Well, kids, the dance-pop world has two new mascots to worship.  One of the guys — assuming they’re guys — wears a fox mask and the other one wears a human mask except that it looks like he’s a human from Gorrilaz.

  • On their last few albums, Die Antwoord were a very gimmicky, almost comedic duo. As Ninja describes their new video for the single “Banana Brain, “A young girl sneaks out to a party with an unusual thug rap-raver boy and has the worst / best night of her life.” Suffice to say it’s a pretty…

  • interview by Michael McCarthy If you’re looking for something different, some truly unique, mind-blowing electro-pop, then you’ve come to the right place. Nathassia is currently based out of London where she is very informed by its music scene. The songs on her just released debut album, Light of the World, run the gamut from modern…

  • It’s hard to imagine that what you’re hearing above started off as a piece of classical music on a piano, eh? We know stranger things have happened, but we can’t recall the last time when a #songoftheday had such an odd background story. That’s not why you should like it though. You should like it…

  • There are so many DJs and producers out there making their own music these days… And, let’s face it, most of them suck. They lay down some punchy EDM beats, find a woman with a pretty voice to sing over them, and that’s it. You’re lucky if there are a few layers of other assorted…

  • Diplo doesn’t need help from anyone else to create a mammoth EDM banger, but he’s collaborated with Sleepy Tom here anyway and you can thank your lucky stars that he did because the result is a truly invigorating beast of a song. It also features gorgeous vocals, an interpolation of Jade’s classic “Don’t Walk Away,”…

  • “I can make you feel better, if you want to,” a female chirps on “Bipp” by SOPHIE, the name used by London-based producer Samuel Long. Or perhaps it’s actually Samuel singing and he just raises the pitch on the vocals so that they sound female? In any case, SOPHIE has become quite the sensation in the…

  • If you’re getting bored with EDM, well, I really couldn’t blame you. In fact, I am, too. But today we have a two song EP from Ckrono & Slesh, a duo hailing from Florence, Italy, and it’s a stimulating blend of kudoro (something I’d never heard of before), Afro-house, funk, dub and even a bit…

  • Now, here’s something we never expected to hear — a Katharine McPhee EDM song. It’s pretty good, too. Our only small complaint is that this sounds more like a remix than an actual song.

  • “Lords of summer shall return,” proclaims Metallica’s James Hetfield right at the beginning of The Glitch Mob’s remix of Metallica’s new song “Lords of Summer,” which will be X Games Austin’s official anthem this year.  Oddly enough, this remix is being released prior to the release of the normal version of the song.  But that…

  • This is what happens when the reigning queen of Chinese pop meets the reigning queen of Japanese pop… One fabulous, punchy as hell, kick ass pop song, primed for the dance floor. If you really despise EDM then this one might turn you off, but we’re getting tired of EDM, too, and we still were…

  • If there’s one thing you could accuse David Guetta of, it’s being formulaic. He has a design in front of him and he rarely colors outside of it. It’s like he has a dance pop algorithm he uses to write all of his songs. To that end, you could say that his music is as…
