Marquee's quest to become America's undisputed #1 club continues with the announcement of its 2012 residencies. The list is impressive (by "impressive," we mean "we have no idea how the folks at the Cosmopolitan can afford to bring in these guys each and every week, but we're glad that they can"). In its second year, Marquee will welcome back Above & Beyond, Chuckie, Erick Morillo, Kaskade, and Markus Schulz. Redfoo will also return for his "Party Rock Mondays" residency, but with all due respect to the LMFAO-er, he didn't belong in the previous sentence. If you aren't sufficiently [...]
It has been a great start to the new year for the EDM scene that we all live and breathe; heavy bangers officially dropped in Steve Aoki's Wonderland, and the genre blending geniuses behind Big Gigantic are releasing Nocturnal for free tomorrow afternoon. However, it's time to take a more laid back approach to the start of this [...]
So in honor of Tiesto's weekly monday podcasts I will be doing a Tiesto Tuesday post of my favorite songs from his most recent podcast for all those lazy people out there who dont have the time to listen in. If you do have time the 60 min podcast is well worth it. Here are my favorites from this week.... 1) Michael Woods - First Aid Matters (Eddie Thoneick Vocal Bootleg) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =J3T0HOI_QuU 2) Steve Forte Rio ft. Lindsay Ray - Slumber -Off of Tiestos Club Life Volume 1: [...]
So I decided to create a rather unconventional music post today. Get ready to be INSPIRED. I've recently helped some friends of mine launch a clothing line called the ADAMO Collection. The whole idea behind this company is to provide a platform for rebelliously creative young people to pursue their passions, collaborate with each other, [...]

Really excited for this track, it uses the very popular Benny Benassi - 'Satisfaction' sample, but in one of the best ways I've ever heard. Rokcity took the notable vocals and put them over the hard hitting electro track from DallasK 'Front Back'. The outcome is the perfect track to set off clubs, parties, cars, and bedrooms across the world. As a bonus I included this bootleg also featuring Satisfaction on top of Kanye West & Jay-Z's 'N*ggs In Paris', this bootleg was made by Chuckie and he gave it out on his twitter a few months back. Turn the [...]
Pier 94 didn't just play host to Avicii for a New Year's Eve celebration, but the venue went hard in the motherf**king paint for the one and only Dayglow on New Year's Day. DJ David Solano kept the music pumping until Benny Benassi took the stage, playing a bunch of his own hits and some from his friends. R3hab's remix of " Close To Me " was a highlight of his set, as was his transition from Laidback Luke's remix of "Cinema" into Skrillex's. It was Alesso, however, that took the decks afterward, drawing [...]

Pacha NYC is continuing its 6-year anniversary onslaught with no signs of relenting. Benny Benassi travels from White Wonderland (in the Los Angeles area, you can win tickets for that as well here ) all the way cross country to perform at Pacha NYC. Dancing Astronaut and Pacha have teamed up to give away one pair of VIP tickets to one lucky winner to see Benny turn New York City upside down. Check the contest widget below for directions on how to enter and have a night you will remember for a long time to come. [...]
I came across this sick mash-up a while back, but I got addicted to posting Christmas music or about Canadian artists. Well, Ipaneema is a young man from San Jose, California who put together a really catchy mash-up using Madeon, Benny Benassi, Skrillex and Michael Jackson. If you love mash-ups, you'll have this song on [...]

It's been a long year. Scratch that, it's been a veeerrrry long year. From social revolutions to the end of our occupation of Iraq, from the death of celebrities and dictators to a man who sneezes bullets and the mystery of planking, the world experienced a slew of emotions and all sorts of cultural and political upheaval in 2011. And that's not even counting the plethora of music news that had the blogosphere abuzz this year . So, as the question begs, what comes next? Well, 2012. If you were to believe certain [...]

New York's Nicolas Matar continued to lead a dual life in 2011. The proprietor of Manhattan hot spot Cielo, which is arguably one of the best clubs in America, Matar is also a top-notch DJ who has played all over the world. Despite rising DJ fees and the economic downturn, Cielo continues to book the best DJs while offering patrons fantastic sound in a meticulously decorated environment. We asked Matar to reflect on 2011 and tell us about Cielo's ninth anniversary taking place on January 28. How was 2011 for you? [...]

Benny Benassi is a legend. Seamless transitions and electro house dominate his sets and there are no signs the creator of widely recognized 'Satisfaction' is slowing down. 'Cinema' was a big single for him this year along with a heavily supported remix pack including edits from Laidback Luke and Skrillex . Benny also provided us with another stellar album titled 'Electroman' which had tracks like 'Spaceman', 'House Music', ' Beautiful People ', and ' Close To Me ' displaying his veteran production skills. With so many DJs touring these days it's difficult to truly narrow it down to a [...]

Benny Benassi's "Close To Me" video shows what it's like for those lucky enough to travel around with him on a particularly crazy weekend. Combining footage from Electric Zoo in New York, North Coast Festival in Chicago, Guvernment in Toronto, and Marquee LV, viewers get a chance to feel like they're standing right there in the booth with Benny, watching over his every move. We start off on a private jet with Benny and Gary Go, and are quickly transported from festival to festival where Benny brings the heat and Gary takes care of the vocals. Despite being [...]

Looks like the last gasp for the NBA season is going on in the desperate labor talks. The funny thing is that nobody is really missing the NBA except for the economic impact on restaurants around US arenas. Have fun playing overseas, guys.
