As the final track in their new EP titled “Collage,” The Chainsmokers drop “Setting Fires” with fellow Disruptor Records signee XYLØ. In 2016, “Closer,” has spent more consecutive weeks as the number one song on Billboard than “Hey Ya” by Outkast did in 2003....
Our two favorite LA-based goons, Eli & Matt of Two Friends, seem to have a knack for remixing classic 2000’s tracks. They crushed a remix of Blink 182’s “I Miss You,” some time ago, and this time are back at it with...
Who is he? How does he do it? It’s gotta get pretty stuffy in that helmet, no? To the latter, most definitely. To the two former, the world may never know. The long-anticipated Marshmello original is finally here. Released on Skrillex’s OWSLA Records and featuring...
Porter Robinson? Madeon? No. LIONE. Now write that name down. The first official release on Martin Garrix‘s STMPD RCRDS (that isn’t a Garrix track), “Leave This Place,” is a gorgeous piece of composition. Massive synth chords, arpeggiating plucks, and punchy kicks come together to...

The young duo from Chi-Town, Louis the Child, has given us another gem with “Fire,” this time featuring Venice, CA-based vocalist Evalyn. The follow-up single to their latest collaboration with Icona Pop “Weekend,” “Fire,” is a vigorous track. A somewhat irregular drum...
The LA-based duo is back at it again, this time featuring vocalist Phoebe Ryan, in what is sure to be another hit with “All We Know.” At this point, it is clear to me that Alex Pall and Drew Taggart of The...
Mike Williams, the freshest young dutch talent, is back at it again with an über bouncy remix of Janieck’s “Feel the Love.” This is vintage Mike Williams. The steady pulse of the 128 BPM drum beat glides smoothly along side a classic...
