Ä live may sound like a new Daft Punk project (let’s keep our hopes up for 2027), but instead it’s obviously the last creative effort of the gang behind the infamous Ä Collective. After quietly infiltrating numerous digital festivals over the past few months, they’ve finally come out in the open with their own virtual event. Among the 10 acts…

I already knew that with the return of Netsky on Hospital Records and the arrival of a brand new album there would have some surprises, but seeing a SoundCloud hero like Montell2099 landing on the London label certainly was not among them. To be precise, there was already a precedent between these two. We can indeed find Montell2099 as a…

Of all the places on this planet, I couldn’t have hoped for a more suggestive place to have the first listen of this new single than Rome’s National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art. I was slowly wandering among some Pollock, Van Gogh, Max Ernst’s paintings and Duchamp’s art installations when my phone rang and this new futuristic chromonicci’s project…

A big shortcoming in today’s music scene, especially in the indie scene, is in my opinion the lack of storytelling. I know that the core of your artist project is music production, but do you know what we, the fans, like very much besides music? Stories. Stories to identify with, stories to dream with, stories to live with. It’s clearly…

After a quick count, I realized that adding up the duration of all the tracks in msft’s catalog the result is about one hour long. What does this mean? That, even not counting all the IDs he’s sitting on, he’d be able to set up a show 100% with his music and sorry if you’re not hyped at this idea,…

The appearance of a hardwave playlist on Trap Nation, featuring some community favourites the like of Juche and skeler., has been a clear signal that have is more and more penetrating the scene. However, besides this occasional mainstream outburst, wave’s prevalence around the world has been steadily on the rise as the strong local scenes continue to evolve and create…

Despite all the promotional tools available nowadays, I love how the most powerful of them is still word-of-mouth. The amount of qualitative music I’ve discovered talking to friends and lurking in group chats largely exceeds what I’ve found through other mediums. This track is a perfect example of this trend: I don’t have to thank any algorithms, but exclusively Rohaan‘s…
