This time around, they’re joined by Brooke Williams for “Losing My Mind.” “Losing My Mind” is the perfect fusion of Big Gigantic and Brooke Williams, as they each use their unique skills to create a pop-tinged anthem.

Big Gigantic Announce New Album With Features From Aloe Blacc, GRiZ, More

Boulder, Colorado-based dance music duo Big Gigantic have announced their eighth studio album, Brighter Future 2, as well as a summer tour.  The announcement is paired with the release of “Keep It Rising,” a collaboration with Grammy-nominated musician Aloe Blacc, who is perhaps best known in electronic dance music circles for his timeless vocals in Avicii’s “Wake Me Up.” This is the first time in more than a decade that the beloved electronic-funk duo and Aloe Blacc have released music together. The last time was Big Gigantic’s remix of Blacc’s “I Need a Dollar.” “Our ‘I Need A Dollar’ remix really kicked off our career,” said Big Gigantic’s Dominic Lalli in a press release shared with EDM.com. “So it...

GRiZ and Big Gigantic Drop Trippy Animated Video for New Dubstep Collab, “Open Your Mind”

Let the good times roll—GRiZ and Big Gigantic have reunited for a brand new single. The two beloved electronic music acts today joined forces for “Open Your Mind,” a massive dubstep track with a reggae twist. And thanks to their signature saxophones, it’s yet another forward-thinking take on the breezy, fun-loving sound that longtime fans admire. Big Gigantic and GRiZ are longtime creative collaborators, most recently joining forces for a single on the latter’s scintillating 7th album, Rainbow Brain. Their 2015 collab “Good Times Roll” remains one of the most prized songs in each of their decorated discographies. And if comments by Big Gigantic are any indication, their collaborative chemistry hasn’t lost a beat. “GRiZ is an absolute mon...

GRiZ and Big Gigantic to Release Reggae-Infused Dubstep Collaboration

GRiZ and Big Gigantic are once again ready to let the good times roll. The two have become a celebrated joint creative force over  the years, and following up on their recent record “Daily Routine” from GRiZ’s Rainbow Brain album, bass music’s funkiest producers are back at it. That being said, however, what’s coming next appears to be a different beast. Late last year, fans began to inquire into an ID GRiZ had begun rinsing out on tour, a track characterized by a grinding, saw-like dubstep bassline.  It’s tough to tell based on the brevity of the clip, but it’d seem GRiZ and Big Gigantic are taking their next release back to an era where reggae and dubstep were on a full collision course. Known in some circles as Reggaestep, th...

Here’s a List of Every Electronic Music Show at Red Rocks in 2021

While it won’t look quite the same due to a vastly reduced capacity, Red Rocks Amphitheatre is leading the charge of the return of music festival season. And while the iconic venue’s 80th anniversary summer season will operate at a limited capacity of 2,500—around 25% of its normal volume—the slash of its size had no effect on its typically jaw-dropping performance schedule. From a performance by legendary rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd to a Kidz Bop World Tour concert, there are all kinds of shows slated for Red Rocks this year. It’s the electronic music shows, however, that stand out above the rest. ZHU, Zeds Dead, Alison Wonderland, and many more are set to return to Red Rocks this year.
