With two EPs already under his belt, electronic music producer AbdeCaf is well on his way to making a mark in the music scene. AbdeCaf released his Unravel EP over a year ago and shortly after dropped his Rebuild EP. It's the haunting samples and play with short 8-bit bleeps that make Unravel such an alluring release. Topping that months later with what I believe to be his best work is the Rebuild EP. It features artists like Koda and Soft Lighting and adds a fuller, more eclectic [...]
Don Pepijn Schipper , better known to the dance world as Don Diablo , grew up in a small Dutch village near the German border where you could count the population on two hands. Although he grew up relatively isolated from a music scene, he was exposed to outside forces at a young age. Finding influences in the likes of Frank Zappa and Tom Waits, as well as the man he was named after, Don van Vliet a.k.a. Captain Beefheart. However, it wasn’t until his first exposure to acid house that his [...]
We've always asked bands to keep SXSW photo diaries for us in the past, but this year we thought we would mix things up and ask our Brooklyn bb's at Ilium Media to show us around Austin. I.M is is a Brooklyn-based music public relations agency owned by Scott Pollack & Amelia Trask, and here's what they got up to...

Keys n Krates are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. They recently wrapped up their first BBC Radio 1 mini mix, dropped their super hot Lucid Dreams EP and remixed the likes of everything from Kanye West to Zedd . Call them a triple threat because Adam Tune , David Matisse , and Jr. Flo are looking like they are about to destroy your speaker systems in 2013. Adam Tune masters the drums, David Matisse works his magic on the synth machine and Jr. Flo has [...]

Sometimes a song just grabs you, and, no matter how many times you hit replay or hear it dropped live, you will never tire of it. "Ode To Oi" became one such song for me, a track that not only engaged me musically but spoke to me (and many others) on a different level. TJR , the American electronic artist behind the production, has reached the upper echelon of success with "Ode" and the ubiquitous "Funky Vodka", but such notoriety didn't come from one unstoppable release. Read on for a glimpse at how he got into the industry, his approach to performing, and an exclusive download of his collaboration [...]

Esteemed poet Emily Dickenson once stated that fame is a fickle food upon a shifting plate. The spotlight is a double edged sword, and those who are placed within are both rewarded by it's benefits and thwarted by it's scrutiny. Every year a handful of artists manage to tread faster than others, emerging from the underground and bursting forth into the light of recognition. It is these chosen few that we as audiophiles obsess over, marveling at their rise to fame and salivating over the good fortune. Yet as we scramble to jump aboard the bandwagon, we often overlook the [...]

I'm proud to reintroduce the Brooklyn-based duo Mystress with their exclusive trap-focused mix. These two guys have got the sound down to a science, pulling from some of the genre's up-and-coming producers like Mr. Carmack and Sinjin Hawke . Some of the better-known artists like UZ and Major Lazer made it in there for good measure, but I gotta give it to them for including the remix of Lil Mama 's ridiculous track "Lip Gloss". We've got a solid hour of prime tunes right here, so blast it. [...]

Music today has become as accessible as the nearest Mcdonalds, making what was once underground and dirty, now much more popular much than the hottest cheerleader in high school. Today, no matter who you are, everyone wants a piece of ¨house¨. But true love lies in integrity. And with sad times of mass-production and over-consumption, let us be very aware that anything -including dance music, crafted out pure and wholesome, is cherished through much longer periods of time.
Being an ardent dance music fanatic myself, I admire those who can keep this genre as pure and alive as possible. [...]

There’s much more to Ellie Goulding than the sweet persona that many may assume due to her beautifully high, hoarse vocals. By listening to her music, one knows that the British singer has been through quite a few ordeals (perhaps most recently, her break-up with Skrillex ), but she’s constantly finding positive and exciting ways to channel that energy – through her amazing live performances, her constant search for new music, or by training for an upcoming half marathon with Nike . One can always sense that hint of fun rebelliousness in Ellie’s personality, and it [...]

About three years ago British duo The Loops Of Fury , comprised of Max Clarke and Jimi Wall, caught my attention with their remix of “Get A Grip” by Dirty Super Car . Not long after this the two released “I Need”, a now classic track that catapulted them into the spotlight and resulted in the notice of none other than Moby . The Loops of Fury have now remixed two of the superstar’s tracks, lacing the originals of “After” and “Extreme Ways” with glitchy syncopation and unending builds of energy. People say good [...]

Cork artist Reid and formerly Cork-based Kilkenny artist Replete both released new music yesterday, via xlr8r and Earmilk respectively. Cool to see they're casting their nets further. It's been a while since we heard new music from either act. Reid's track, 'Wake' is as upbeat and summery as his previous [Read more]
