Brodinski teams up with Theophilus London on ‘Gimme Back The Night’

September 4, 2013 | Cara Daley | Music

Bromance Records' latest single is a new record from label head Louis Brodinski, a collaborative track with rapper Theophilus London. Brodinski's step into the hip-hop world should come as no surprise to someone who's even loosely following his current career trajectory and "Gimme Back The Night" is just studio proof that his hip-hop plus techno formula works. The single is out this week digitally and includes an extended club version in the release package.

Patrick Topping’s ‘Any Amounts’ to see long-awaited release on Hot Creations

September 4, 2013 | Cara Daley | Music

For anyone who has listened to a Jamie Jones set in the last 5 or 6 months, Patrick Topping's "Any Amounts" just may be that "one song you couldn't get out of your head." This past Friday on Radio 1, Pete Tong played the longest (and highest quality) clip found on the Internet of the single, due out on Hot Creations in the imminent future. The up-and-coming producer is certainly building substantial buzz with this quite unforgettable record, and a release date could not come soon enough.

Dusky preview new ‘Careless’ EP for Aus Music

September 4, 2013 | Cara Daley | Music

British duo Nick Harriman and Alfie Granger-Howell, or Dusky, have two major things going for them -- releasing records on Anjunadeep, Dogmatik, and Naked Naked, they're unlikely to feel constrained by a certain genre of dance music and their sheer number of EPs and singles in the last year have kept them extremely relevant.

Electric Zoo ’13 Artist Spotlight: Laurent Garnier

August 26, 2013 | Cara Daley | Music

Laurent Garnier is arguably the biggest dance music heavyweight set to grace the stages of Electric Zoo next weekend. Make no mistake -- he might not sell tickets like Tiesto or make fans scream like Sebastian Ingrosso, but in terms of longevity and significance, Laurent Garnier's career is quite honestly second to none on EZoo's lineup. Garnier is, of course, French but made a name for himself in the early heyday of house music in the UK -- joining Haçienda resident Mike Pickering under the pseudonym DJ Pedro right as Detroit techno and Chicago house began to creep onto foreign shores.

August 25, 2013 | Cara Daley | Music

Today Nicolas Jaar and collaborator Dave Harrington announced on various social media channels that their much buzzed about Darkside project would be releasing (for free download!) the first eleven minutes of the duo's first full-length album. Although the preview certainly leaves more to be desired from the Chilean-American prodigy and his partner, the heart and soul of the clip certainly screams quality.
