THE CRYSTAL METHOD TO APPEAR AT SAINT ROCKE IN HERMOSA BEACH THIS FRIDAY, JULY 12

ALBUM ‘THE TRIP HOME’ OUT NOW

tcm hermosa .png

Grammy-nominated electronic music artist THE CRYSTAL METHOD (Scott Kirkland)—is coming to Saint Rocke in Hermosa Beach this Friday, July 12 to support his latest studio album THE TRIP HOME.

For THE TRIP HOME— The Crystal Method’s sixth studio album—Kirkland dove deep into it’s decades-spanning discography. Equal parts throwback and dynamic futurism, the tracks are produced with Glen Nicholls (Future Funk Squad) as well as Matt Lange, La Castle Vania and Teflon Sega. The Album — which debuted at #1 on iTunes Electronic Album chart and #44 on the main album chart, as well as #2 on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Album Chart—-garnered excellent reviews.

For more than two decades, THE CYSTAL METHOD has remained at the forefront of the worldwide dance music industry as pioneers of the big beat genre, innovators of the ‘90s electronica movement, and current-day global ambassadors of the American electronic sound. Of their last five studio albums, two were number one in the Electronic music charts, two were top three, while their debut Vegas was released before anyone even thought of having an electronic album chart and is hailed to this day as one of the defining albums of electronic music.

They have appeared on over 100 soundtracks, in over 50 major motion picture trailers, and scored films, documentaries, video games, and TV series for everyone from Ben Stiller to JJ Abrams. Recently The Crystal Method scored the theme title for Guillermo Del Toro’s animation series “3 Below.” Check out the trailer featuring TCM’s music here:

Musically, they have collaborated with Rick Rubin, Ozzy Osbourne, Tom Morello, Alan Parsons, and Old Dirty Bastard among others, while they have toured with a wide genre of artists ranging from Guns N’ Roses and Tool, to The Prodigy, Korn, and The Chemical Brothers. Originally formed as a duo, alongside now retired founding member Ken Jordan, THE CRYSTAL METHOD today lives and breaths as a solo act, with co-founder and originator Scott Kirkland at the helm. And with the artistic reboot comes the next chapter in THE CRYSTAL METHOD timeline: THE TRIP HOME.

Grammy-Award Winning Producer Latroit Tunes in with "NICE" for Apple's New International 'That's IPhone' Marketing Campaign by Brian Rapaport

GRAMMY-AWARD WINNING PRODUCER LATROIT TUNES IN WITH “NICE” FOR APPLE’S NEW INTERNATIONAL TV SPOT FOR THE ‘THAT’S iPHONE’ MARKETING CAMPAIGN

Screen Shot 2019-07-09 at 11.38.35 AM.png

Yesterday, July 8, Apple revealed the international TV spot for the “That’s iPhone” marketing campaign introducing its Face ID component. The commercial features a man napping peacefully on a lounger in his garden, woken up with a series of iMessages. By just raising his face, he’s able to unlock the phone and read the incoming message. The entire 30-second spot—aptly titled “Nap”--is set to the 70's inspired slow jam that is Latroit’s newest single “Nice.” View it here: https://youtu.be/1eQ6n9uZ8Ls

Available now on all DSP’s, “Nice” and its vocal counterpart “Nice (Twice As Nice)” featuring Los Angeles based rappers B4NG B4NG & Loomis are fine additions to the repertoire of GRAMMY Award winning producer, composer and performer Latroit (Dennis White). The Los Angeles-based musician who hails originally from Detroit created a soulful piece of music that sets the mood just right. Check out “Nice” and “Nice (Twice As Nice)” now at https://smarturl.it/qgi50g and look for a proper music video to launch soon.

“The path to this Apple spot has been a pretty surreal and unlikely experience. I wrote “Nice” three years ago with a couple of friends for a laugh. We were just having fun, joking around in the studio,” says Latroit. “The idea that Apple, the company with whom my creative output is so inextricably linked-I mean…”Nice” was written on a MacBook Pro!- The idea that Apple would use the song for an iPhone campaign years later wouldn’t have been something I’d have even contemplated. Getting that call felt a little like when I won the GRAMMY™ award last year with the remix I’d done for Depeche Mode. Just really surreal. For those of us in the artist community, an opportunity like this is literally like winning a major award. It’s a life event.”

He adds, “The lesson here for artists is to just keep creating without thinking too much about why you're doing it, what the outcome may or may not be. You never know what unforeseen opportunities might be around the corner for your work, and you never know which thing it is that is going to react.”

Dennis White (aka LATROIT) is a GRAMMY™ Award winning producer, composer and performer with ARIA and BPI certified gold, platinum and double platinum selling records, over twenty top 10 Billboard Club Chart tracks & remixes, and dozens of TV & Film placements. His place in the annals of dance music history is assured by his work with the pioneering Detroit techno group Inner City, his release “Happy People” as Static Revenger (charted by Fatboy Slim as one of the top 10 songs of that decade), DJ tours through five continents, and the recent oeuvre of Latroit releases, notably highlighted by the 2018 GRAMMY™ Award for ‘Best Remixed Recording’ - Depeche Mode “You Move” (Latroit Remix). Although no stranger to releases on the world’s preeminent independent and major labels, the Berklee College of Music graduate runs his own label imprint, House of Latroit, hosts the bi-monthly podcast House of Latroit. Both of these endeavors support his passion for discovering and promoting emerging musical talent from around the world. From an early start in the Detroit underground to the critical embrace of his current collection of work, Latroit’s music holds history in one hand and the future in the other.

unnamed (1).jpg

Canada’s fastest rising dance act LOUD LUXERY (Andrew Fedyk and Joe De Pace) will embark on their first ever major headlining North American tour this Fall. Launching August 29 in Salt Lake City, LOUD LUXERY’S “NIGHT’S LIKE THIS” TOUR will take the duo on a two-month long trek to many markets along each of the continent’s coasts and in-between. The full routing follows below. Joining LOUD LUXERY on select dates will be special guests CID, Dzeko, MEDUZA, Bijou, Black Caviar, Frank Walker, Justin Caruso, and Midnight Kids. Tickets go on-sale this Thursday July 11 at 10 AM PST // 11 AM MST // 12 PM CST // 1 PM EST at www.loudluxerymusic.com

In addition to the tour news, this Friday, July 12, LOUD LUXERY and Bryce Vine (“Drew Barrymore, “ La La Land” ft YG) will release their new single “I’m Not Alright” (Armada Music/Sire) as the follow up to their smashes “Body” and “Love No More.” Pre-save the single here: https://armadamusic.presave.io/t/llbvina

“We met Bryce at a party in LA through a friend when we got back from our fall tour. The next day, he came over and showed us an idea he made that was just a guitar and the chorus,” says LOUD LUXERY. “During our winter tour we worked across North America in hotel rooms, studios, and even an Uber with our headphones to finish writing the song. At the end of the day we are all human, we all make mistakes, but this song is about coming to terms with your flaws.”

It’s been an amazing ride for LOUD LUXERY (Andrew Fedyk and Joe De Pace). Since the June-Award winning duo debuted on Armada Music in late 2017 with their now worldwide smash hit “Body” (feat. brando)— the most played song on dance radio for all of 2018—they sold platinum across the globe (7x in Canada, 3x in Australia, 2x in Switzerland, and 1x in the U.K U.S., Netherlands, Austria and more), held the #1 spot in the U.S. Mediabase Dance Airplay chart for two weeks, charted in the Top 40 of U.S. Pop radio and the U.K’s Official Singles Chart (#4) and accumulated hundreds of millions of plays across the most popular streaming services on Spotify alone in it’s first month and currently sits at an impressive 86 million+ plays on the streaming platform. On top of the “Nights Like This” tour, also look for Loud Luxery to make their debut at Lollapalooza in Chicago and on the mainstage of Tomorrowland in Europe this summer alongside Parookaville, Mysteryland and a slew of other festivals, in addition to their residency plays at Hakkasan, Omnia and Wet Republic in Las Vegas.

MK "Body 2 Body" (CHRIS LAKE REMIX) OUT NOW ON AREA 10/ULTRA MUSIC by Brian Rapaport

MK “BODY 2 BODY (CHRIS LAKE REMIX) OUT NOW ON AREA 10/ULTRA MUSIC LISTEN HERE

PACKAGING FEATURING REMIXES BY CHRIS LAKE, KC LIGHTS, 6AM, MEDUZA, TREASURE FINGERS, NIGHTLAPSE, AND LEFTWING : KODY SET FOR RELEASE JULY 5

image1 (2).png

British producer Chris Lake has made a remarkable name for himself in the dance music realm by creatively expressing himself through hard hitting house beats. Now, Lake delivers on a new remix for MK’s latest “Body 2 Body” out today (June 28) on Area10/Ultra Music.

Listen now here: https://ffm.to/b2b-chrislakermx

“When it comes to modern house masters, MK is among one of the genre's brightest, and so is British bass-lover Chris Lake. That's what makes it so exciting that their musical minds came together on a recent remix of MK's ‘Body 2 Body,’” wrote Kat Bein of Billboard Dance. “The original is a sensual mix of house and R&B, a driving club rhythm with pop-forward brightness. For his part, Lake injects the dance floor tune with darker late-night mood. The beat pumps a little heavier, the atmosphere fills with smoke, and the hook comes in strong with a psychedelic synth roar.”

Look for Lake’s track to also appear in the “Body 2 Body” remix package Area10/Ultra Music is releasing next Friday, July 5. Other artists included in the package are KC Lights, Meduza and Leftwing : Kody. There will also be a 6AM mix from KC Lights who also remixed MK’s global smash “17” to great acclaim and mixes from Treasure Fingers and Nightlapse.

MK’s “Body 2 Body” follows up to last year’s gold-selling single “Back & Forth” which peaked at #12 in the Official UK Top 40 Singles Chart and remains a mainstay on streaming playlists everywhere. To date “Back & Forth” has been streamed over 60 million times on Spotify. This was preceded by 2017’s “17,” Kinchen’s most successful career release, amassing just under 120 million Spotify streams to date. “Body 2 Body” represents the next chapter in the career of this internationally acclaimed multi-talented artist, who continues to ride on his rapid ascent to the pinnacle of the dance music world.

Most recently MK was touted in SPIN’s 40 Best Deep House Tracks Of All Time for his song “Love Changes (Deep Mix)” featuring Alana.

PORTER ROBINSON'S SECOND SKY FESTIVAL CONCLUDES TO GREAT SUCCESS by Brian Rapaport

PORTER ROBINSON’S SECOND SKY FESTIVAL CONCLUDES TO GREAT SUCCESS

30,000 FANS ATTEND SOLD-OUT INAUGURAL TWO-DAY EVENT JUNE 15 & 16, 2019 IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA WELCOMING SPECIAL SURPRISE GUEST SKRILLEX

SHOW STREAMED OVER TWITCH MUSIC

$154K RAISED FOR ROBINSON MALAWI FUND

One of the most dynamic artists in the electronic genre right now, PORTER ROBINSON can now add event producer to his remarkable list of accomplishments. On Saturday, June 15 and Sunday 16, 2019, Robinson launched his inaugural SECOND SKY FESTIVAL to great success.

Over 30,000 fans made their way to Middle Harbor Shoreline Park in Oakland, CA over the two days to take in performances by international artists specially curated by Robinson. The sold-out event featured on both days Madeon (DJ set), Cashmere Cat, Kero Kero Bonito, Chrome Sparks, Anamanaguchi, Wednesday Campanella, and Nina Las Vegas. G Jones made appearance on the Saturday.

Robinson’s longtime friend Skrillex generated a special festival moment as the special surprise guest on the Sunday, revealing himself out of the festival mascot Pataro. The pinnacle of each day was Porter Robinson’s Second Sky headlining performance where he marked the return of his groundbreaking “Worlds Live show for it’s only 2019 appearance.

Photo Jun 15, 11 30 30 PM.jpg

The Saturday, June 15 show was live streamed in partnership with Twitch Music, with a repeat airing. Over 1.6 million fans around the globe tuned in to watch Robinson’s “Worlds Live” set and others.

The event also raised over $154,000 for the Robinson-Malawi Fund. In 2016, Robinson’s 17-year-old brother Mark was diagnosed with Burkitt Lymphoma, an aggressive, fast growing cancer. After intensive treatment at the University of North Carolina Hospital from his doctors and the rest of their staff, Mark was eventually cure and is now thriving. To give back, Porter started the fund to help children with this same condition in the country of Malawi. In the united States, Burkitt lymphoma is very rare and more than 90% of children survive. In Malawi, where it is the most common childhood cancer, the survival rate can be as low as 29%. Dr. Kate Westmoreland, one of Mark’s doctors, leads the pediatric cancer program there called UNC Project Malawi. For more information, log on to: www.robinsonmalawifund.org.

Presented by Goldenvoice, PORTER ROBINSON’S SECOND SKY FESTIVAL was a one-of-a-kind unique event for his fans. Look for the event to return in 2020.

Critical praise for Porter Robinson’s Second Sky Festival in the media:

“When was the last time you saw the headliner at a major festival play the first set of the day? Such was the novelty of Porter Robinson opening his own Second Sky Festival under his alias Virtual Self. ‘Hey, everyone, welcome to Second Sky!’ he told the still-forming noontime crowd at Middle Harbor Shoreline Park, a small plot of land on the Port of Oakland outskirts with a terrific, albeit foggy, view of San Francisco Bay. ‘The main reason I’m doing this is because there’s a ton of amazing artists I want to share with you.’ June 15-16 marked the inaugural edition of Second Sky, the festival Robinson founded in partnership with Goldenvoice… Tickets for the festival sold out in less than an hour, prompting the team to add a second date with the same performers (minus G Jones, who was replaced on June 16 with an unannounced “special guest.”)
Both days capped out at 15,000 attendees each.” —
Billboard

“As artist-curated festivals become an increasingly common part of the business, Porter Robinson’s inaugural Second Sky Festival, done in partnership with Goldenvoice, delighted some 30,000 fans in Oakland, Calif., June 15-16. The event is already promising a return in 2020.”Pollstar

“Robinson is regarded not just as a stellar performer, but as the creator of one of American dance music’s benchmark cultural experiences.” — Mixmag

“Madeon and Porter Robinson reunited at the latter’s own Second Sky Music Festival this weekend and it was absolutely glorious. We honestly can’t think of a better time or place for the two masterful producers to come together once again for a rare performance like this one.” — YourEDM

“As someone who doesn’t know a whole lot about EDM, Porter Robinson’s Second Sky Festival at Oakland’s Middle Harbor Shoreline Park was a great gateway for those unfamiliar with the genre. 10 acts took the stage throughout the day, most new to me except with the special guest showed up and turned out to be Skrillex. The crowd went crazy… The main event and host Porter Robinson had a great set in which his music flowed with the on-screen visuals that included Japanese-inspired animation and imagery of fictional worlds. During the set, he mentioned that he likes to create worlds through his music and the accompanying visual arts on screen. That really drew me in, as both elements made it feel as though a story was being told through his set — something you don’t experience much at rock shows.” The Bay Bridged

KAYZO x YULTRON FEATURING OF MICE & MEN NEW SINGLE "NIGHT TERROR" by Brian Rapaport

KAYZO x YULTRON FEATURING OF MICE & MEN NEW SINGLE "NIGHT TERROR" Out now on Ultra Music — Listen Now Here

unnamed (3).jpg

The new single “Night Terror” from KAYZO X YULTRON featuring Of Mice & Men out today (June 26) on Ultra Music bridges three artists obsessed with heavy music and exploring new sonic territory — two prominent electronic producers fro the bass front and one of modern rock’s most distinguished acts. Listen now here: https://ffm.to/nightterror

“Night Terror” is a gut-punching record that gives bass lovers their fix layered with the hard edge of heavy metal. Best friends KAYZO and YULTRON—in the studio among meme wars and fan chats started work on the song, with YULTRON bringing in his long-time friends of Mice & Men to deliver extra texture with vocals, scorching guitars and live drums enhancing the producers’ unique soundscapes.

Lyrically the track also carries heavy weight. Says of Mice & Men’s Tino Artega, “‘Night Terror’ to me describes the vulnerability of our minds and the overwhelming sense of terror that can sneak into out thought when we lay awake at night. We all know that feeling and I think this song really shows how irrepressible those feelings can become sometimes”.

“Night Terror” follows previous KAYZO collaborations with Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low (“Up In Flames”), Underoath (“Waster Space“), Blessthefall (“Before The Storm“) and “Alone” with New England-based post-hardcore band Our Last Night. Look for a new album from KAYZO to be released very soon.

About of Mice & Men:

21st century hard rock leaders of Mice & Men — vocalist/bassist Aaron Pauley, guitarist Alan Ashby, drummer Valentino Artega, and guitarist Phil Manansala—released their latest album Defy, on January 19, 2018. They spent the start of 2019 wrapping up more new music with producer Josh Wilber (Lamb Of God, Trivium, Megadeath). The first taste of this came with the adrenaline-fueled track ‘How To Survive’. This was quickly followed by the unrelentingly heavy ‘Mushroom Cloud’, both delivered whilst the band did back to back US touring alongside Nothing More and Beartooth. Over the course of nearly a decade, Of Mice & Men have steadily risen to the top of the genre’s ranks, hitting No. 1 on Billboard’s Rock and Independent Charts and No. 4 on the genre-spanning Top 200. The band has also racked up close to 5 million social media followers, along with a following so dedicated that it’s practically disciple-like in its fandom. Through the years, they’ve shared stages with artists such as Metallica, Linkin Park, Slipknot, and Queens of the Stone Age, holding their own all the while winning over new fans with each performance.

About KAYZO:

Huston-born, Los Angeles-based producer/DJ KAYZO, née Hayden Capuozzo, is one of the fastest-rising electronic artists of this decade. His versatile sound—high-energy melodies bestrewn with pummeling beats—defies genres and challenges sonic boundaries: in one single song, he’’ traverse heavy metal via shredding guitar solos, dub-step-heavy bass, hard style-fueled aggression, and hypnotizing psytrance loops. His flexibility as a producer has earned him official releases with many of dance music’s leading progressives and has garnered him collaborations with remixes for DJ Snake, Steve Aoki, SLANDER, among many others. Taking the electronic-rock hybrid to new ground, he remixed the 2000 alt-metal smash hit “Last Resort” from nu metal icons Papa Roach. Dubbed a “real smasher” by Billboard, the remix has amassed more than 13 million Spotify streams. Elsewhere, the dub-step monster “Wake Up”, his collaboration with RIOT, counts more than 20 million streams on Spotify, with an additional 3 million on SoundCloud. His bass-fluid, shape-shifting sound and bold take on production has come to define KAYZO’s electrifying style and creatively experimental direction, as best captured on OVERLOAD, his debut artist album. Released January 2018 on his own Welcome Records imprint, distributed by Ultra Music, and counting more than 7 million streams on Spotify alone, OVERLOAD encapsulates the new KAYZO sound; a stimulating, cross-genre blend of rock theatrics and electronic futurism. A taste=maker in his own right, KAYZO founded his own artist-run imprint, Doghouse Recordings, in 2016, which he later relaunched as Welcome Records in 2017. He also hosts his biweekly Doghouse Radio show, which airs every other Friday at 4pm PT/7pm ET on SiriusXM Channel 7:30 as part of Insomniac Radio. Recognized as one of Billboard Dance’s 100 Artists of 2019, KAYZO is bona fide global act.

DJ, artist, producer, remixer & Area10 label chief MK (Marc Kinchen) is releasing the official video for his latest single “Body 2 Body” today (June 14). Directed by Tash Tung, who has previously worked with Meduza and Sega Bodega, the video shows exquisite dancer Shari Ashley deftly showing her ability to be powerful and sensual on her own and while in the arms of her dancing partner. The dance they perform seems like the perfect visual interpretation of the song’s sultry lyrics and irresistible rhythms.

Released last month on Area10/Ultra Music“Body 2 Body” has already racked up more than 1.5 million Spotify streams and over half a million YouTube hits, as it looks set to become one of the songs of summer 2019. The track itself sees MK switching things up from his well-known warm piano house sound in favor of a more progressive flavor.

To further support the single, the label will release a “Body 2 Body” remix package with reworkings done by Chris Lake (individually available on June 28), KC Lights (June 21), Meduza (available today) and Leftwing : Kody (out now). There will also be a 6AM mix from KC Lights who also remixed MK’s global smash “17” to great acclaim and mixes from Treasure Fingers and Nightlapse.

“Body 2 Body” follows on from last year’s gold-selling single “Back & Forth”, which peaked at #12 in the Official UK Top 40 Singles Chart and remains a mainstay on streaming playlists everywhere with over 65 Million streams on Spotify. This was preceded by 2017’s “17”, yet another hugely successful MK track, which has amassed just under 123 million Spotify streams to date.
