With his upcoming projects in 2017 the artist aims to ‘experiment with all sorts of different music genres, whilst staying true to the melody’.

While receiving continuous support from the likes of Martin Garrix and Nicky Romero and touring around the biggest stages around the globe, like Tomorrowland Belgium and Brasil, Volt & State announced their parting in October of 2016.

26/9/2017

 
Picture
Constipated Monkeys may not be the most well-known pseudonym of either Harry Romero or Jose Nuñez, but that doesn’t make the music crafted up under their moniker any less effective on the dance floor.

​Back in the studio for the first time since 1997 classic ‘Cro Magnon’, they now see Marco Lys deliver a splendid remix of ‘Music Takes Control’, released on Erick Morillo’s Subliminal Records.

Born and raised in Venice, Marco Lys is one of dance music’s long-lasting household names.

Mr. Kristopher presents Brooklyn Trilogy EP Part 2

23/9/2017

 
Picture
Mr. Kristopher finally unleash the second part of his EP "Brooklyn Trilogy" and it's huge! The inspiration behind this part 2 of the EP is a sonic reflection of Mr. Kristopher's experiences during his 2nd month of
living in Brooklyn, NY.

​Mult-various electronic music composer, producer, and instrumentalist Kristopher J. Gray, aka Mr. Kristopher, raises the levels of frequency in a colossal way. With a punk-metal background informing his darkly unique tone and energy, eclectic experimentation with natural ambient sounds—traveling the ocean and mountains to record almost all of his music with distorted sounds from nature--and polished production quality, Mr. Kristopher is breaking barriers with his electronic licks, core riffs, and hip-hop kicks that delivers an all-out head banging bass experience. Period. 

Since 2011, the diligent former college student has maintained a busy show/festival schedule as well as promoting his music and career, managing to keep on a strict schedule with his college courses by utilizing green rooms and downtime between sets in his travels. Mr. Kristopher has created and developed a presence among the rising contenders of today's top tier festival circuits. Throwing down on stages such as Dancefestopia (4 years in a row), The Gathering of The Juggalos, Backwoods Music Festival, Safe In Sound Festival, and SXSW. He’s also recently been chosen by none other than Complex Magazine to participate in a 14 episode series and developed a hip-hop presence through sharing the stage with Tech N9ne and touring with Potluck. In 2016, he also participated in remixing Emmy Award winning Denyse Tontz’s “United States of Anxiety” and Dave Aude’s “Sweet Dreams.” Going into 2017, he broke new ground with his first European label release Communion EP with Jet Set Trash Records which landed his music on several XM Radio Stations including Dyro’s Wolv Radio.
​

New comers take heed, Mr. Kristopher is far from rookie status, despite his recent blossom onto the electronic scene; he's long since left the kiddy pool and has yet to look back. Mr. K has been swinging with the best of the best for some time. State by state, he has worked his way around the country through various clubs and theaters; spreading his message of love and down to the ground good times. If you're in search of a light, look no further. Let this wild-style rhythm and passion fueled sound be your guide. From Mr. Kristopher's heart to yours.

AFROJACK UNLEASHES NEW, LONG-AWAITED CLUB SMASH: ‘KEEP IT LOW’ (FEAT. MIGHTYFOOLS)

23/9/2017

 
Picture
Afrojack might have been indulging in various forms of electronic dance music in recent years, but he has never been one to cold-shoulder his roots. With ‘Keep It Low’, the Dutch dance music icon drops a record meant to tear clubs apart, made in collaboration with Dutch-Indonesian DJ/producer duo Mightyfools.


Listen to Afrojack feat. Mightyfools – Keep It Low


The centerpiece of Afrojack’s Tomorrowland Belgium 2017 live set, ‘Keep It Low’ drives even the most resilient House fanatics mad with excitement and has already graced live sets from the likes of Axwell, David Guetta, Hardwell and Laidback Luke. With its ferocious tempo and no-holds-barred approach, this tempestuous production makes for one heck of a highlight whenever it comes blasting from any club or festival’s sound system.


Born Nick van de Wall, Afrojack has been one of dance music’s front-runners since the rise of hit single ‘Take Over Control’ (with Eva Simons) and has a peerless reputation as a DJ and producer. He has collaborated with the likes of David Guetta, Steve Aoki, Diplo, Pitbull and The Black Eyes Peas, won a Grammy for his (and David Guetta’s) remix of Madonna’s ‘Revolver’ and rocks stages everywhere from Ibiza’s finest venues to globally acclaimed festivals such as Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival L.A., Tomorrowland Belgium and Ultra Music Festival Miami. ‘Keep It Low’ shows that Afrojack hasn’t forgotten about the club scene and will be his go-to tool to kick things up a notch on that front. Earlier this year, Afrojack released his new single ‘Another Life’ with David Guetta featuring Ester Dean. The music video is a futuristic anime take on creating life with a touch Ghost in the Shell vibes.


Having been setting trends and pushing boundaries for over a decade, Mightyfools are without doubt among dance music’s most prolific acts. Since starting their joint endeavor in 2007, they have performed at over 1000 event worldwide from Tomorrowland and Mysteryland to Creamfields and back, collaborated with powerhouse acts such as Yellow Claw and showed various charts who’s boss, including the Beatport main chart and Spotify’s Viral chart. Their hot streak has been going on for ten years already and their brand-new collaboration with Afrojack shows that Mightyfools have set their sights on adding at least ten more.
