DNCIn a world where political leaders are realizing that they can govern on outright lies and even the words used to impugn such behavior have quickly been adopted to further their mission of disarray, the only response that makes sense is confusion. You can do your best to untangle the wide webs of fake news and garbled conspiracy, but immersed in a constant flow of absurd information, it can become hard to tell whi

  For his debut single, and first single on Mr.Suicide Sheep’s Seeking Blue imprint, Melf shares “CRZY” featuring Alexandra Rotan. Utilizing an understated, but carefully crafted bassline, the track carries the weight of a sultry

The high-energy, gritty sound has been largely replaced by bass house and some harsher future house from artists like Moksi, but there’s still a large demand for quality electro house out there.
  Cue Mr. Kristopher, and his new Communion EP. In creating this EP, Mr. Kristopher essentially doubled down on the energy and darkness of the ge

• Your EDM Premiere: BROHUG – Giggle Juice [Dim Mak]

  There are a lot of thoughts that can go through your head when you see a track titled “Giggle Juice” by an artist named BROHUG. My first thought would clearly be one of confusion, bewilderment and morbid curiosity. Fortunately, those feelings are pushed aside when you listen to the actual track which bangs like a drill sergeant waking up his troop in the morning with a wooden spoon and metal pot. If that metaphor is a little too thick, then just take this away – the track

When this happens, the feeling that we may never catch up again sets in rather quickly.

  A shining example of this can be found in Salt Lake City-based DJ/producer, Nate
