Netflix Enlists TOKiMONSTA, Alok More for Squid Game-Inspired EP: Listen
Netflix and Casablanca Records have joined forces to provide fans of Squid Game with a package of music inspired by the dystopian hit series. While we’ve received numerous unofficial remixes and bootlegs, the EP, entitled Squid Game (Let’s Play), features four official songs. Alok‘s cut is an amalgamation of two songs from the show: the unmistakable “Pink Soldiers” theme and the eerie tune from the iconic “Red Light, Green Light” scene. TOKiMONSTA has produced a rework of the latter, brilliantly interlacing her own vocals alongside a funky house beat in “The Flower Blooms.” Chart-topping dance music trio Cheat Codes went a different route, creating a tense bass house remix of “Way Back Then.” The EP then concludes ...
Alok Announces Squid Game-Inspired EP, Drops Hypnotic Lead Single
Alok‘s final release of 2021 is a celebration of one of the year’s biggest pop culture moments. The rise of Squid Game to take the throne of Netflix’s most successful show was nothing short of meteoric. Considering the show’s near-hypnotic theme music, you just knew dance music artists were going to find clever ways to channel that eerie energy. That inspiration has manifested in a variety of ways, such as the clever “Squid Game and “Do It To It” edit Zedd used to make a memorable entrance on the EDC mainstage. Alok found himself similarly entranced by the show’s chilling main theme—but he hasn’t stopped there. Next year will see the Brazilian dance music superstar dropping an entire EP based on the show. “After becoming...

SLANDER and Dylan Matthew Tap Kaskade, Armin van Buuren, More for “Love Is Gone” Remixes
A track so nice, they had to remix it twice. Back in October 2019 SLANDER and Dylan Matthew released a monster remix package for their single “Love Is Gone,” tapping six producers to rework the future bass anthem. Kompany, Crystal Skies and more put their signature touches on the track, taking it to new heights as it rumbled through the festival scene at the time. SLANDER and Matthew have now announced another “Love Is Gone” bundle, which is primed to be even more transformative thanks to a high-profile entourage of remixers. Remixes from R3hab, Kaskade, Alok, and Armin van Buuren will drop over the course of the next month. Kaskade’s edit, in particular, represents a quasi-full circle moment for SLANDER. The duo took to Twitter to gush abo...

Brazilian Bosses: 10 EDM Artists from Brazil Dominating the Scene
There’s a reason why EDM is so popular in Brazil—the country is currently pumping out electronic music producers like a broken printer. Those artists have ignited the country’s music scene in recent years by cultivating Brazilian bass, a musical sub-genre that started out as a mere classification but has since mutated into a full-fledged culture. The ascension of this type of music is no fluke. Led by its unquestioned pacemaker, Alok, the Brazilian bass sound has exploded in its namesake nation and continues to gain steam in the states. And, like a smokestack, it’s only a matter of time until the genre truly explodes and billows out through the contemporary music scene at large. It’s already happening. A closely related electronic sub-genre called “slap ...
Alok and Everyone You Know Team Up for New Single “Kids On Whizz”
Brazilian superstar Alok has unveiled his third single of the new year alongside multi-faceted UK sibling duo Everyone You Know. “Kids on Whizz” is actually a rework of the duo’s recent single “Charlie” and includes a sample from The Streets‘ “Weak Become Heroes.” The result is a perfect patchwork of quality productions wrapped into one. Alok stays close in line to the original track but turns up the energy to make it his own. He incorporates his signature deep-driving basslines with EYK’s synth-laden production to get it ready for the dance floors. The alluring vocal performance fits perfectly into the updated styling. “When we released ‘Charlie’ we never in a million years thought someone with as much wei...
Alok’s “Rapture” Flip Captures the Nostalgia of iiO’s Original With a Slap House Twist
In 2001, American recording duo iiO released the electronic song “Rapture,” which became an instant club hit. The tune was a commercial success and even managed to chart inside the top 50 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Most importantly, “Rapture” became a rave classic. Brazilian superstar Alok has now kicked off 2021 with an infectious cover of the time-honored single. Joining forces on rework is Irish singer, producer, and DJ Daniel Blume, who provides fresh vocals. “Rapture” also marks the latest release on CONTROVERSIA, a label Alok launched in June 2019 that focuses on showcasing emerging global talent. Alok’s “Rapture” flip captures the nostalgia of the original song with a slap house twist. The pulsing drop is a danceable fusion of energetic ch...
