So much of electronic music is dominated by the kick drum. It commands control of a club with its pumping pulse, a bass fueled metronome for the crowd to coordinate their dance moves. Depending on your workflow, (and genre of course) it might very well be the first note you lay down for every single track you c...

Through a kind of creative iteration by collaboration, it is possible to produce something which completely eclipses the original recording in terms of popularity, exposure and success. A prime example of this is the 2006 house classic ‘We Are Your Friends’ from ‘Justice Vs...

The track title ‘I’m Gonna Get You’ could almost be a testament to Nina Kraviz’ dedication and determination to succeed as a house/techno DJ and producer, in an undeniably male dominated industry. Kraviz early adventures into dance music saw her managing dental records by day and vinyl records by night, as she ...

It feels longer than 5 years since New Zealand singer-songwriter Lorde first gave us her unique blend of indie/pop/electro (or whatever the Millenials call it these days!) when she was catapulted into the limelight in 2013 with her massive hit ‘Royals’. Amazingly she was just 16 at the time when it hit number 1...
