If you zoom carefully on the black hole picture, you can clearly see msft. chilling in a corner with a beer, recording samples here and there for his latest release. Don’t believe me?

After three days of Ultra Music Festival packed with so much forced exhibitionism and fake art, it’s physiological to need good, genuine music. I mean, the type that you know comes straight from the creator’s heart.

On Spotify for example, the leading track of the project, ‘Better Not’ has nearly doubled the success of previous LTC classics like ‘It’s Strange’ or ‘Fire’. Now,…

Waterfalls, beautiful wonders of nature. So majestic and candid from a distance, so disrupted, tricky and dangerous upon on a closer look. Woe betide if you approach them without being careful. They’re like sirens. They mislead visitors with their hypnotic song, and then overcome them with brute force, blast after blast, drop after drop. Belgian producer Bouhi knows this hocus…
