Following the release of ‘Summer Lover’ back in June 2019, Malaysian pop trio MFMF. is back again with their fourth single of the year with ‘Too Much Love’. ‘Too Much Love’ is an uplifting anthem and, as the title suggests, a song about finding love with oneself, and then passing on that love, hope, and enthusiasm to people around them. With its boundless energy and endless hooks, this song is catchy and infectious and upon one listen, and it is clear that the melody will be sticking to you for the rest of your day.

To tie up with the release of ‘Too Much Love’, MFMF. will also be collaborating with several dance studios in Kuala Lumpur, as well as a handful of freelance dancers and choreographers on a music video.
This dance-centric video will be entirely user generated, and will be showcasing the dancers’ various dance moves and reactions to the song. The footages will then be stitched together in the eventual music video; which will be out a week after the release of the song.

To ensure the success of this campaign, MFMF. is collaborating with the Malaysian Mental Health Association (MMHA), in which supporters and listeners will be encouraged to follow a custom curated playlist by MFMF. on Spotify, which they can easily follow and also share around with their friends and families. In doing that, they are providing an effortless, and most importantly, a zero-costway for the transmission of this campaign to the general masses. 

​MFMF. is pledging to donate 50% of all the proceeds obtained from Spotify for ‘Too Much Love’ to MMHA to show their support for this initiative. On top of that, MFMF. will be working together with Fly Project, a popular Malaysian boutique fitness company that hosts various instructor-guided fitness classes, to organize a one-of-a-kind event as part of the release campaign for ‘Too Much Love’.


Fly Project will be hosting a special week-long Fly Cycle classes in which MFMF. will be doing live DJ sessions during the class, as opposed to curating a regular Spotify playlist. The kick off class, to be held on the 12th of October 2019, will be a special invite-only event which will be attended by the most influential Malaysian KOLs. Fly Project will also be selling seats for their subsequent classes for the week long campaign and has also pledged to donate the proceeds to MMHA.

This exclusive campaign for the release of a single is the first-of-its-kind in Malaysia, and we really can’t wait to see what else they have in store for the future.

Surely a highlight of 2019’s release calendar for trance - and music - fans around the world, ‘Sound Advice: Chapter Two’ is the stunning new long player from UK producer Ben Gold, out for worldwide release today on Armada Music.
 
Beautifully produced, thoughtfully compiled and breathtakingly daring in its ability to roar from instant anthems through to sublime orchestral pieces, ‘Sound Advice: Chapter 2’ is the work of an artist utterly confident in the studio and completely in tune with the dance floor.
 
‘Sound Advice: Chapter 2’ is the follow on from the 2018 first edition of Gold’s ‘Sound Advice’ series and marks his return to the club and festival sound he is revered for.
 
“‘Chapter 1’ of ‘Sound Advice’ was based around the concept of live instruments,” Gold said from his home base in Amsterdam. “Every record had a live instrument in it. For ‘Chapter 2’ I’ve gone back to the dance floor with some incredible new talent featuring across the new tracks. It’s a format that works really well for me and really gives me creative freedom to produce and evolve and explore sound without being restricted. I’ve been road testing the music out on tour and the reactions have been beyond anything I anticipated so it’s looking good, for sure.”
 
Opening up the album is Gold’s current, critically acclaimed single ‘The City Sleeps Tonight’. Dynamic, driving and at times ethereal, this is classic vocal trance at its finest, setting the tone for what’s to come. Carrying on the melodic vibe is HVNNAH collaboration ‘Come Home’, a beautifully positive, upbeat track infused with celebratory pianos, bouncing synths and the kind of breakdowns that produce a sea of hands in the air.
 
If ‘Come Home’ is light and airy, ‘Why You EI’ is the kind of electronic destroyer that DJs the world over will be dropping. Undulating instrumentals, rivers of synths and huge fluctuations between light and dark sections are masterfully tied together by one relentless rhythm that acts as a spine to the track. The energy continues with Gold’s second single to be released from the album earlier this year, ‘Sapphire (Recut)’. An instant hit on Garuda Music back in 2010, Gold breathed new life into the cut for 2019, “radiating power and brilliance”.
 
The mark of any album that raises the bar is the artist’s willingness to throw a curveball into the mix and with the Ruben De Ronde and Louise Rademaker single ‘Ghost’, Gold does exactly that. Rademaker’s sultry vocal is teased by the duo across sublime strings and elegant percussion. De Ronde and Gold show a real understanding of just how emotively powerful trance can be when in the hands of two masters of the genre - the world can surely look forward to one hell of a remix package in the not too distant future.
 
Working with Sheridan Grout and Fahjah with Julia Ross on vocals, ‘Take Me To Heaven’ is Gold back in clubbing territory once again. The echoing top line lifts the track up to the rafters, rolling arpeggios thundering towards an almighty drop that propels the track over the edge. Teaming up with After Midnight, the album’s penultimate track ‘Step Inside’ is a true powerhouse track, layer upon layer of synths and percussion creating a riot of dance floor energy.
 
Finally, Gold teams up with fellow icon Richard Durand for what must be the most spine-tingling, goosebump-inducing track from the entire album. From the second it drops, ‘A Thousand Times’ is proper, euphoric, flawless trance that harks back to the genre’s heighday. Two producers at the height of their powers, this is absolute pure gold and leaves the listener begging for more.
 
‘Sound Advice: Chapter 2’ is nothing short of a classic artist album that will cement Ben Gold’s status as one of the real legends of trance music. Fans who fall in love with the LP will be able to catch him live across the remainder of 2019 and through into 2020, where singles from the album are sure to take pride of place in his electrifying shows.

NERVOUS RECORDS - SEPTEMBER 20th 2019
Slovenian rising star Ian Sound drops his incredible new single ‘Fake Records’ on NYC imprint, Nervous Records today.
​
Bursting with groove and a timeless old school sound, ‘Fake Records’ is undoubtedly going to have dance floors jumping through to the early hours. The track serves up a hefty bass-line and rolling drum beats throughout, every sound fusing perfectly with the Hip-Hop influenced vocal sample and classic break down that resonates with the world of 80’s Chicago style house. 

Sound explained “After the release of my first track 'Wiggity Wack' I was searching for my next inspiration. I was listening to some old school Hip Hop and  Dead Prez’s track - Hip Hop, came on, as soon as I heard the vocal, I immediately knew that this was the sample that I had to work around. I love producing tracks that include old school break-beats, Hip-Hop vocals, groovy bass lines and tight hi-hats,  you’ll find all of these elements in ‘Fake Records’. The track was so much fun to make and I feel it fits my personality and style perfectly.’” 

Sound holds a residency at STUK, Slovenia where he has played alongside names such as UMEK and Mike  Vale. The residency at the Maribor club has lead to numerous appearances at venues and festivals across the nation, joining the same stage as artists such as Joris Voorn & Klingande, including a landmark performance this summer at Slovenia’s biggest festival Stellarbeat.

His profile rapidly rising beyond the borders of Slovenia and across the European circuit, Ian Sound is the first to be selected for The Mother Lode’s ‘Emerging Artist’ programme. With recent releases on Lapsus Music & Kubu and another release imminent for the UK’s Shanghaied label, this promising young artist is proving to be one of the most exciting names coming up through the hotly contested tech-house ranks.

"Midnight Hour" with Ty Dolla $ign and Boys Noize dropped worldwide at midnight in all its undeniable R&B house glory that's a departure for all involved.
 
For the past few years, Skrillex has been on a creative sabbatical between LA and Tokyo and non-stop working with some of the biggest names in music including Ed Sheeran, FKA twigs, The Weeknd, Kelsey Lu, Camila Cabello, Incubus, Zac Brown Band and many more not announced.
