Headhunterz joins the Ultra Music family with the release of "Colors," the hardstyle heavyweight's blazing release alongside Tatu. The melodic build cuts a graceful path before the pulsating heavy kick comes in to play. Headhunterz continues to dominate after a big year with multiple festival headlining slots. Q-Dance is set to invade TomorrowWorld and LA this year and it seems Hardstyle is starting to make waves in the US.

The Pryda Friends tour was announced just a couple of days ago, but already demand is so high that the label has decided to release a number of presale tickets for each show. Die hard fans can now grab early tickets to see Jeremy Olander and Fehrplay but only until Friday night at 9PM PST. The two Pryda proteges should provide an unforgettable show given these intimate venues. If you're looking for Olander on the East Coast, he will be playing Santos this Saturday, July 13th.

LA-native, Paris Blohm, is back with another freebie, this time in collaboration with Matt Morris. "Miracle" is an incredibly clean progressive house tune that is sure to make a room move. Complemented with catchy vocals, big synths, and light beat, Paris has come a long way in a short amount of time.

It has been over a year since the release of "Oxford" but Julian Jordan and TV Noise are back with another collaboration. "Childish Grandpa" rides the line between progressive and electro for a final product full of light synths, wobbles and grinding bass. With support from major artists like Hardwell, R3hab, and Nicky Romero, it won't be soon before these young Dutch producers become a household name.

With Q-Dance set to invade Los Angeles this fall, the harder styles of dance have come a long way. Defqon.1 is an annual festival held in both the Netherlands and in Australia, with over 55,000 people this years Dutch festival. The amount of production work in the last 20 minutes of this festival is intense and fits perfectly with the music.

To celebrate his success, Zedd has announced a world tour covering 6 continents across 4 months. Dates have been announced for September and October in the US with October dates for Europe, November dates for South American and December shows for Australia and Asia to be announced soon. Tickets go on sale June 28th and with support from Oliver and Alex Metric, the tour will probably sell out pretty quickly.

Ultra Music Festival: Korea is now live from UMF TV! Although we can’t all be in South Korea for the festival, we can still relish in some high definition live sets from a few of the festival’s top acts, courtesy of Ultra Music’s YouTube stream. While the stream ran from 6AM-1PM EST, UMFTV is thoughtful enough rebroadcast (1PM - 7PM) the day for those of us who don't get up at sunrise.

In a time when standing on stage and mixing just doesn't cut it anymore, Destroid are taking the live idea to another level.
