Goldroom Gets Sultry With His Remix of Janet Jackson’s “No Sleeep”

27-01-2016 21:36

Whether he’s performing with his live band or whipping up a seasonal mix, Goldroom has shown he’s got the Midas touch with his sun-kissed sounds.
His latest endeavor sees him take on pop royalty Janet Jackson and her 2015 single “No Sleeep,” the lead tune off her eleventh studio album Unbreakable. Making a come hither song even more seductive (while still keeping it classy) is a tall order, but he’s managed to do it in classic Goldroom fashion, slowing down the

Every year, tens of thousands of people (70,000 of them, to be more exact), descend upon Nevada’s remote Black Rock Desert for nine days of art, music, and all varieties of hedonism.

27-01-2016 17:00

Montreal up-and-comer Mandiz is a DJ who likes the bass down low. Her sets favor a booty bass and G-house sound that she was first turned onto by London duo Amine Edge & DANCE, whose CUFF label continues to turn out the kind of bumping, sleazy productions she’s into. In addition to CUFF, Mandiz is also a devotee of Dirtybird, another label committed to bottom-heavy house music.
