This morning's mix is a living testament to dance music's capacity to unite and uplift. Bridges for Music is an innovative nonprofit that employs electronic music to effect positive social change in disadvantaged areas by bridging divides, inspiring individuals and promoting public awareness. The organization recently brought minimal techno icon Richie Hawtin to the South African townships of Soweto and Langa to conduct workshops and perform live alongside homegrown talents like Black Coffee . Hawtin describes the following mix as a series of fragments from each of his DJ sets in the Rainbow [...]
Tale Of Us - Another Earth This is the duo’s first release on the legendary Minus imprint. The track provides a more stripped back sound to their regular work but it’s both musical and minimal. Apologies for sleeping on this one.
After two days of scorching sun, the earlier part of our third day in Indio was spent much the same way - glued to the tents where Paul Kalkbrenner, Paul Oakenfold, Hardwell, Eric Prydz, Joris Voorn, James Blake, Pretty Lights, Maya Jane Coles, Loco Dice, Jamie Jones, and Richie Hawtin would deliver some of the days stand out performances. As the day wore on the wind picked up, transforming the polo grounds into a massive dust storm, tearing through the campsites with a vengeance. By Sunday, it seemed [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive Lindsey Best for AOL I had a great time at Coachella this year, but I think it may be my last. I saw Blur , Nick Cave , Tame Impala , James Blake , Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Richie Hawtin play jaw-dropping sets. I caught a surprise appearance by R. Kelly instead of Daft [...]
Techno's favorite, Richie Hawtin had an unfortunate technical mishap before his set at the festival giant Coachella this past weekend. As told by our friends over at Pulse radio, Hawtin had to bow out only hours before taking the stage for a closing set from a broken hard drive. Apparently there was no backup plan in place as Richie stated his dismay to the fans. Cassy took over the mixing duties to round off the Saturday night slot. As the Saturday night headliner, you can imagine there were [...]

Coachella's Saturday lineup presented a new host of conflicts, while the Sahara and Yuma tents remained stacked with impressive talent, elsewhere in the festival some of most remixed indie bands in dance music were also performing. The Sahara Tent hosted Baauer, Kill The Noise, Bingo Players, Fedde Le Grand, Mob, while Yuma created refuge for fans of 2 Bears and Julio Bashmore. Rather than stay confined to the two dance music tents as promised, we explored the Polo grounds. Starting out our day at Baauer's Sahara set (long lines caused [...]
If you're a festy addict who's never ventured to the sweaty streets of downtown Miami in March for one of the biggest dance music events in the world, then sorry to tell you this, but YOU'RE SLIPPIN! As a 5-year vet of the UMF US edition (working hard on earning my Ph.D. in Raveolutionism) I am continually amazed by the fact that Ultra really does get better every single year. As with most massives, part of the allure lies in how organizers continually up the ante by extending the length of the event, selling more tickets, adding more [...]

You've seen photographs online after parties that were absolutely bananas. Most likely, you've also seen the ones taking those photos, or you've seen the flash, and the one responsible has vanished. Camera in hand, I'm one of the many dark figures running through nightclubs, squeezing through groups of people packed in like sardines, trying constantly to find the best spot to capture that one moment when the pyrotechnics erupt and the crowd goes wild. Often times, these seemingly endless treks across clubs are fruitless, and we feel compelled to move again...and again...to chase the perfect shot. It's always a challenge; [...]
It’s tough being a Canadian sometimes. While bustling with fresh talent, our producers are frequently mistaken for our neighbours to the south. Of course, we are often too polite to cause a scene but it's due time that we shine a light on our accomplished artists and let the world know we hamper more musical scope than just the Biebs. Canada has a vast EDM scene comparable, if not better, to metropolitans in the US, and we are mighty proud of it. As opposed to beach or desert festivals, we have outdoor blizzard raves fit with ice sculptures [...]

Widely regarded as THE biggest music, film and technology festival in the world, here is one reason why to not go throwing your drunken self around at South By South West festival in Austin, Texas. Yep, some drunken fool has got what was coming to him. Although the footage only shows limited build up to the incident a big dude throwing his weight around in a massive crowd gets blind sided while picking on a guy who was attempting to give him the 'peace signal'. Not only did this guy get knocked out but he also went home [...]
