The man himself looks like Wolverine. He produces some fantastic electro-house and with his new album "Weekend In America" only released last week, this will be a party to remember.
Check out some new songs from his new album below along with a classic i hope he plays called "Front To Back".
Today's Parklife feature is Feed Me. Another of the several dubstep acts, this Mau5trap artist has already released a killer album and EP since December. Expect enough bass and electro-house grooves to make you move and lose your shit.
Parklife's lineup was a little controversial with the excessive number of dubstep artists on the lineup. It's one of those genres you either love it or you hate it, and many old-school tech fans despise it completely. For me, dubstep in the EDM scene, represents what hardcore is to rock. They are both an extreme sub-genre in one form or another and both provide high-intensity music that sees bodies get thrown around.
Nevertheless, dubstep artist Flux Pavilion will be a sure hit at Parklife. With some filthy wobbles and ear-ripping bass, I can only hope a throwdown pit will open during Flux... Would be awesome to have a mosh.
Been a while since last post! Above & Beyond rolled through town and I can't even begin to describe how good that night was! The only word that cuts it close is euphoria, and even that doesn't do justice. There is heaps more happening in the world of music (both EDM and HxC scenes) that i will eventually drip-feed over the next few posts.
Beginning tomorrow and hopefully all week, i will showcase a few of the Parklife acts playing next weekend in Brisbane.
For now though, sit back and relax to some awesome trance songs.
This Friday! One of the greatest EDM artists of all time & my favorite trance act Above & Beyond are playing live in Brisbane @ The Family. This will be an incredible, euphoric experience, and definitely one of the best nights of the year.
Earlier this year Above & Beyond released their second album Group Therapy, broadcasted their 350th episode of Trance Around The World radio, provided another Essential Mix for Radio 1 and hosted a bunch of Group Therapy tents at huge Summer Festivals in the Northern Hemisphere. So here we go! A fresh batch of A&B songs & a link to A&B's essential mix. Enjoy!
I love a good mashup, the fact that 2 songs in key can actually sound really awesome together is pure brilliance. Here are a couple of mashups I'm rather fond of.
The first mashup is a little beauty that Above & Beyond play live. The countdown begins with only 5 days til their gig. It is the first of many gigs coming up I'm attending, with some of my favorite HxC and EDM acts on their way. Here's a list of the upcoming gigs.
Above & Beyond + Mat Zo & Jaytech @ The Family - 16/09 Every Time I Die + The Word Alive @ THe Hi-fi Bar - 23/09 Parklife Festival @ Riverstage & Botanical Gardens - 1/10 The Amity Affliction + Skyway @ The Tivoli - 6/10 KOAN Sound @ The Family - 15/10
Above & Beyond presents Oceanlab Vs. Gareth Emery - On A Good Day Metropolis (Myon And Shane 54 mashup)
Clashback & Michael Woods Vs. R.E.M. - Losing My Outset (Gabriel & Dresden mashup)
Wolfgang Gartner vs La Roux - In For The Kill (Dave Spoon Bootleg)
Tiesto Vs. Umek - Surrounded By Slap (Gabriel & Dresden Mashup)
The man himself Matan (Mat Zo) Zohan, another Anjunabeats artist, has just touched down in Australia with Above & Beyond ready in time for the Group Therapy Australian tour. The promising trance producer debuted at #66 on last year's DJmag poll, and has some incredible tracks to prove why including the infamous "Superman" and a brilliant collaboration with fellow Anjuna artist Arty (with another on the way!). He is due to close the Group Therapy shows after Above & Beyond's set.
Speaking of which, Above & Beyond @ The Family set times have been released with Jaytech at 11:30pm, Above & Beyond at 1:00am and Mat Zo from 3:30-5am. I am unbelievably excited for this night.
Mat Zo - Superman (Original Mix)
Mat Zo & Arty vs OceanLab - Satellite Dynamics (Mat Zo Mashup)
