Vick Hope Talks Style, Schedules, and the Secret to Her Relationship With Calvin Harris
Image Source: Pandora When thinking about the things we'd take on a desert island, we're slightly embarrassed to admit that our phone is the first thing that comes to mind. Practicality then reigns supreme with sunscreen and a boat rounding out our three options. But Vick Hope is decidedly more sentimental than we are. Her desert island must-haves include Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's "Half Of A Yellow Sun" book, her mum's okra soup, and her fiancé, world-famous DJ Calvin Harris. "When I hear this question, I always think, why don't people just take their partner? That's the whole point! We really love spending time together, so that would be ideal," Hope tells POPSUGAR. She adds they would keep themselves entertained using shells and coconuts to make music. Now that, we'd like to see. Having...
Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding Are Back In the Studio
If you need a sign that 2023 is going to be a good year, here it is. Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding are back in the studio. On Thursday, Harris posted a photo of himself and his “I Need Your Love” collaborator in the studio together. And fans will be thrilled to hear they’re working on new music. “Back in studio!! It’s time for the third installment of our banging song trilogy,” Harris wrote. While Harris and Goulding recently celebrated 10 years since the release of their chart-topping “I Need Your Love” last year, it’s been a long time since the pair were spotted making music. It’s been nine years since they dropped their second dancefloor hit, 2014’s “Outside,” so it seems a reunion is long overdue. Scroll to Continue Recomme...

Here’s a List of Generational EDM Anthems That Turned 10 In 2022
It’s 2012. “Levels” is blasting through every house party. Big room house music is dominating the club circuit. Avicii, Skrillex and Pretty Lights are headlining Ultra Music Festival. Life is good. That year, the EDM bubble looked more like a 5 Gum commercial, a mind-bending maelstrom of fantastical electronic music festivals and totemic tracks. Rave culture bubbled up from the underground and exploded through the mainstream, leading to a collective serotonin rush that still remains. And while the EDM ecosystem is still thriving, it’s markedly different from those days, when DJs and producers pumped out hits like a broken printer. 2012 gave rise to a slew of generational dance anthems, which are now relics of a bygone era. Read on to turn back the clock a ...
We Came Up With Bizarre Descriptions of DJs—Then Used Artificial Intelligence to Bring Them to Life
There’s nothing that blurs the line between frightening and fascinating quite like artificial intelligence. And since artificial intelligence and electronic music are becoming more symbiotic by the day, the staff here at EDM.com wanted to see just how far it could go in a visual sense. So we came up with bizarre descriptions of artists and fed them through A.I. art generators. Some images are photorealistic. Others are fancifully distorted. And the majority of them are flat-out creepy. But we digress. Read on to see our weird and wonderful creations.

“Now I’m Feelin’ So Fly Like a Cheese Stick”: Study Uncovers Most Misheard Song Lyrics
The lyrics of dance music’s most timeless contributions are being lost in translation, but does anyone mind? A new study examines the most commonly misheard song lyrics in modern times and their effects on our understanding of the music itself. A survey of 1,000 Americans by WordFinder revealed that the top 40 most misheard songs include several timeless electronic favorites from Far East Movement, Skrillex, Calvin Harris and more. We’re not sure if it’s the hunger talking, but comically, fans have been mistaking the hook from Far East Movement’s “Like a G6” as “now I’m feelin’ so fly like a cheese stick.” Aside from the silliness of it, this mistake is particularly interesting as listeners need only look at the title of the song ...

Calvin Harris Unites With 23 Collaborators On Sun-Kissed Sixth Album, “Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2”
Five years after its predecessor, Calvin Harris has finally unveiled Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2, his sixth studio album. The new LP features a staggering 23 collaborators, among them Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams, Halsey, Charlie Puth and Normani. Harris manages to weave a sun-drenched latticework of electro-funk, laid-back R&B and smooth nu-disco throughout Vol. 2, which spans 14 tracks. Considering the five-year gap between Funk Wav Bounces albums, fans of Vol. 2 may already be looking ahead to the next installment of Harris’ fan-favorite series. But that’s a pipe dream. Appearing on Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp, Harris poured cold water on the possibility of a third volume, which he said will “absolutely not” happen. Scroll to Con...
