  10. Talk about a blistering release pace… it was only three weeks ago that Deathpact put out their debut EP, Cipher One, and they’re already back with a follow-up single, “Formality.” Many would take a little time to allow an EP to really marinade in the minds of fans, but Deathpact’s strategy seems to be to overload with flavor. Unfortunately, I’m not entirely sure that strategy is working in Deathpact’s favor here. There’s very little to set “Formality” apart from any of the tracks that came before it, aside from some quirky samples and a goofy rhythm. It still fits neatly into that midtempo/electro sound that he’s been pushing since the beginning, and there doesn’t seem to be much growth sonically. That being said, fans of the Deathpact sound are sure to be pleased with another quality track in the same vein as those that have come before it. Listen to “Formality” below.

  11. Hannah Wants is on top of her game and it’s easy to hear it — with her single “Close To You” fresh off her brand new record label, Etiquette. Having established herself as one of the biggest names in dance music, the DJ/producer has consistently delivered on an impressive collection of dance records. She has rocked her own BBC Radio 1 residency and headlined countless clubs and festivals across the world. Running a record label is an intuitive next step that only cements her impact on the industry thus far. Hannah’s newly launched imprint Etiquette serves as the outlet for her latest release. The six-plus-minute journey packaged as “Close To You” shows off a mature soundscape, but packs much edge. Soon enough, Hannah will follow up with another self-release, “You Keep Comin,” before continuing the exciting wave of new music from a carefully curated roster of artists. “Close To You” and previously released “Bamboozle” are just the beginning. Etiquette aims to champion established and up-and-coming artists alike, bridging the gap between the house scene and the bass world. With a majestic career already under her belt, the launch of Etiquette introduces a new facet to her enduring connection to dance music. But, don’t take it from us, listen, link up and read our full chat with Hannah Wants below. She talks everything Etiquette, the current state of dance music, and offers advice for aspiring producers everywhere. We’re all ears. Hannah Wants – Close To You How long have you been dreaming of your own label? Running my own record label is something I’ve always wanted to achieve but I’m a big believer in things happening at the right time, now definitely feels like the right time and I’m super excited to embark on the new venture! Which types of artists and music do you hope to expose through your new label? Etiquette’s music policy will run under the umbrella ‘House & Bass’ — supporting bass influenced sub genres of house music. Etiquette will not only be a platform for me to release what I believe to be my strongest music to date, it will also champion both up and coming producers as well as already established names in the game. Why the name Etiquette? For me the music industry has its own Etiquette, its own code of behaviour. Things that go down in a club / music environment wouldn’t necesarily go down the same in a retail store or office block. This label is for the house music lovers out there. This is our industry, our code of behaviour, our Etiquette. We wanna celebrate good music and build together. Tell us about your new single, “Close To You,” out via Etiquette… Close To You, just like 90% of the music I make, is built for the dance floor. The vocal represents just a little something something I was going through at the time and the groove on the bassline is one of my personal favourites so far, it’s a track I’m super happy with! I’ve been playing Close To You in my sets for a couple of months now and it really has been working the floor well, got me super hyped for the release! What’s your advice for aspiring producers seeking to be picked up by a label? Be patient, don’t rush and quality over quantity always. Once music gets signed and released it’s out there for the world to hear, forever so make sure you’re the most proud of the work. There’s a few tracks of mine that if I could, I’d ‘un-release’ that shit and get it removed from my back cat. Always lessons learned! And best advice for those who hope to start their own label? Again don’t rush, gain the right expertise because a job isn’t worth doping unless it’s executed properly and professionally in my opinion. With new labels popping up all the time it’s very important to nail your brand — it’s gotta be solid and unique. Oh and sign great music, obviously. What’s the underlying factor you can attribute to your massive success? I guess you could say I’m an extremely determined individual. When I set out with my goal to become a DJ 12 or so years ago now I’ve remained fully focused and worked hard to achieve to my goals. Consistency is key. What do you find most interesting / exciting about the current dance music scene? I love the diversity of the dance music scene, I always have. I also love the way music changes and moulds over the months and years. The stuff I played and made 2,3,4,5 years ago is quite different to the music I play and make now and I love the way artists and sounds get to evolve over time. As someone who loves and plays tech house, house, bass influenced house, and techno I think there’s some really strong music out there at the moment and I can’t wait to see what the next 6/12 months hold. Shoutout some other labels that you dig the most! Snatch! Toolroom. Sola. Relief.

  12. The musical collective made up of Lain, Astre, Kultur, Khamsin, Kidswaste, and Rusty Hook, better know as Slow Hours, has finally released their debut original track, “Endless.” It’s been 21 months since Slow Hours released their first track, a remix of What So Not’s “Lone,” that enamored the world. It quickly blew up and we named it the best remix of the month when it came out. It had this unique and refreshing twist on future bass that immediately captivated our staff and the millions of other listeners who loved it. Slow Hours also released another remix of Petit Biscuit’s “Sunset Lover” five months later, though it never reached the same pinnacle of hype that their What So Not remix did. Now, Slow Hours brings that same energy to their first original, “Endless.” As they describe in the description of the track, working with six people on a tune can be extremely stressful. “We saw our friendship move towards a dark place as a result of working together on the originals – we were arguing and everybody was stressed out. For a lot of this past summer, we were divided amongst ourselves and unsure if there would ever be any finished music to show.” But now we have “Endless,” this masterpiece of future bass and melody which combines all elements of their original styles into one cohesive project that is boundlessly fun and wildly entertaining. Since it appeared in my inbox yesterday, it’s been on repeat. We assume it will be the same for you. Listen to “Endless” below. This article was first published on Your EDM.

  13. Odesza dropped two unreleased IDs at Austin City Limits over the weekend, and they couldn’t sound more different — at least as far as the duo’s signature soundscape goes. The first was an enticing, upbeat track with a whole lotta soul. You might recognize it, because Odesza has been playing out their version of “Locomotion” for some time now. It’s the kind of song you want to get up and dance, maybe even jump to. As you can see from the video below, the audience’s response to the drop was on point. The next ID, a stark contrast from the first, brought the bass. Trading uplifting melodies for bold notes and dark undertones, Odesza showed off a lesser heard side of their production. This is undisputedly the most ominous fans have heard the duo get, and you can experience it for yourself below. Just recently, Odesza put out “Loyal,” a fan-favorite track that truly was a long time coming. For years, going to see a live show was the only way to hear the production, and now it seems Odesza has unleashed a new wave of unreleased magic especially for their sets. Listen below and let us know which vibe you’re digging the most! Odesza – Austin City Limits via EDM Sauce | Photo via Rukes.com This article was first published on Your EDM.

  14. Rumors earlier this week that Martin Garrix could be releasing another EP during ADE seem to have been confirmed or at least supported by recent tweets from trusted source The Martin Garrix Hub. Nearly a week ago, the account tweeted out, “one of our biggest dreams is coming true this month, so y’all better get ready to cry.” Since then they’ve only continued to tease more and more, leaving fans to their own imagination. A new website from Martin Garrix certainly suggests something is on the horizon. But a new tweet today from the Hub suggests that five new tracks are coming. Using the same static plus symbol found on the website, the gif transitions into five distinct static boxes, roughly the shape of, oh, I don’t know… track art? An earlier tweet from the Hub with multiple “hi five” emojis reinforces the idea of “five” having something to do with Garrix’s announcement. pic.twitter.com/OOzZDmOTla — MARTIN GARRIX HUB (@MartinGarrixHub) October 11, 2018 Now, with two days to go until festivities in Amsterdam begin, the Martin Garrix website has been updated to reveal track art at the top-most square of the ‘plus’ symbol. A countdown now appears on it with a blurred image, ending Sunday, October 14 at 3pm PST. Tune in on Sunday to see what all the fuss is about! This article was first published on Your EDM.

  15. While debates about sync buttons and controllers vs CDJs continue in the EDM world, the strictly DJing world continues on unfazed with their DMC World Championship competition. This year, France’s DJ Skillz proved why he is one of the most talented DJs in the world by taking the crown in the finals. But it was a close race: DJ Fummy of Japan came second place by just one point, with DJ Rena a close third. The 15 year old DJ K-Swizz from New Zealand, also proved to be an exciting new talent by adding to his trophy cabinet with the World Supremacy title. DMC live streamed the event for the first time ever and have received over 400,000 streams so far, proving that the art of turntablism is still a hugely appreciated part of DJ culture.

  16. It hasn’t been since Korn’s The Path Of Totality in 2011 that a predominantly rock-facing group/band has tackled dance music crossover and come out so brilliantly on the other side, but Tom Morello has just done it. The Atlas Underground is a blistering 12-track album featuring more names that we can comprehend; but, we can certainly list them. In order of appearance: Knife Party, Bassnectar, Big Boi, Killer Mike, Portugal. The Man, Whethan, Vic Mensa, Marcus Mumford, Josh Carter of Phantogram, Steve Aoki, Tim McIlrath, K.Flay, Pretty Lights, Carl Restivo, Gary Clark Jr., Nico Stadi, Leikeli47, GZA, RZA, and Herobust. This seemingly random collection of artists are featured in a variety of combinations, some joining Morello on their own and others pairing up in ways we would have never thought (Bassnectar, Big Boi and Killer Mike is the obvious example that comes to mind). Very much due to the album’s diversity, it also suffers from being rather disjointed sonically. However, thematically, the album is tinged with political commentary and interpretations of current events that have affected our nation in recent years. (Again, the Bassnectar, Big Boi and Killer Mike collaboration “Rabbit’s Revenge” is most salient.) For dance music fans, the tracks with known producers will likely be the most enjoyable. But even the tracks with just Vic Mensa or Marcus Mumford of Mumford & Sons should possess some crossover appeal. Bringing the comparison back to Korn’s The Path of Totality, the type of artists chosen for features is clearly different. Korn went primarily for bass acts like Skrillex, Kill The Noise, Noisia, 12th Planet & Flinch, etc., whereas Morello went for a wider range of hip hop, rock, and dance collaborators like Bassnectar, Pretty Lights, Whethan and Herobust. While both albums will undoubtedly be brought up in the same sentence for years to come, it’s ultimately pointless to attempt to compare the two. Morello has been taking The Atlas Underground on tour for a couple weeks now, accompanied by live performance and the chance to share a drink with Tom as he tells behind-the-scenes stories about the making of the record. There are still a few dates left; visit www.tommorello.com for a full list of event dates. Listen to The Atlas Underground below. This article was first published on Your EDM.
