Welcome to the only guide that you will need for your upcoming visit to Miami.

After weeks of monitoring and carefully tracking the (what seems like) millions of parties happening before, during and after Ultra, the EO staff came together to gather the best and the brightest choices. EO is a diverse crew, made up of techno purists, trance enthusiasts and big room progressive followers and this guide reflects those many musical [...]

Stamped: Taylor Allderdice

Mar 14, 11:02pm New England Royalty

Stamped: Taylor Allderdice Wiz's latest mixtape proves to be less Rolling Papers and more OJ, which is certainly nothing to complain about. Actually, the release was so hyped last night that it shut down the web's premiere distribution site where you can currently snag the work here . Give it a shot and see if the Taylors haven't gotten you yet again. Here are some unrelated things as well. Note that SSX and Run DMC are both stamped.

Jay Z – "Empire State Of Mind" (Pretty Lights Remix)

Mar 13, 7:07pm AudioCred

Biggie's experienced a bit of a remix zombification as of the date of lateness, 3/9/97 (tear). Pretty Lights joined that exhuming horde today. Above a cheesily distorted instrumental version of "Empire" rolls out entire verses of the "Juicy" and later "Hello Brooklyn 2.03 flow we deeply appreciated in their singular forms. I know Jay-Z has the utmost Brooklyn-grade love for Biggie, so I'm not sure he'd be warm to this recompilation. Below is also some other remixes Smith's uploaded today; you're the judge.

Run-DMC · It's Tricky (SSX Pretty Lights Remix)

Mar 5, 3:25pm Silence Nogood

We've got another electro artist diving into the video game soundtracks. This time around it's one of our favorites, Pretty Lights, remixing Run-DMC's classic, "It's Trick." The sound is a bit more reminiscent of his old downtempo days, which is always nice to hear every once in a while. I can't say it's his best remix, one of his Unreleased 2010 Remixes holds that honor, but I always love hearing that signature PL electro-BOOST with classic acts like Run-DMC. Pretty Lights remixes Run-DMC's most memorable track, "It's Tricky," for the [...]
