New Year’s Eve 2020 is going to feel different this year since we’ll be confined to our homes.

David Guetta Announces NYE “United At Home” Charity Stream Live from Paris
Third time’s the charm for David Guetta, who has announced a massive “United At Home” charity stream on New Year’s Eve 2020 in Paris. The barnstorming dance music superstar raised a whopping $1.5 million with his first two “United At Home” streams, which went down in Miami and New York, respectively. 50 million global viewers tuned in to watch him break the Guinness World Record for the most-watched DJ set on Facebook. Guetta has not revealed where exactly he will be broadcasting from, but a press release asserts that the performance will take place at “one of the most magical spots in Paris.” Could an Eiffel Tower stream be on the horizon? The Paris edition of the event series will benefit UNICEF and Restos du Cœur, a major French ...
Viral TikTok Star Doggface Appears in David Guetta, MORTEN, and Lanie Gardner’s “Dreams” Music Video
With more than 80 million likes and 6 million followers to his name, 37-year-old TikTok star Nathan Apodaca, better known as Doggface, was an unlikely sensation, making national headlines back in September with a viral video set to the tune of Fleetwood Mac‘s “Dreams.” Turns out, the soothing clip of Apodaca peacefully longboarding and sipping Ocean Spray Cran-Raspberry juice turned out to be exactly what the Internet needed. The Idaho native’s video had already garnered support from countless celebrities and brands—including a copycat clip from Mac Fleetwood himself and a gifted pickup truck from Ocean Spray—when David Guetta and MORTEN added themselves to his list of fans. They casted Apodaca in the star role of their music video for thei...
EDM.com’s Best of 2020: Music Producers
This year, the team at EDM.com is proud to publish four installments of “Best of 2020” coverage: Industry Leaders, Performances, Music Producers, and Songs. DJing and music production are different. But the difference between the two is like a wallflower—it hides in plain sight, and it is vastly misunderstood. Many artists do both, but not all DJs produce music and not all music producers DJ. Producers create the music that a DJ will then play out to crowds—it’s an important distinction that eludes many. Like a sleek Lamborghini driving from one coast to another, the art of DJing is a stylish means to an end. And music production is the engine that powers it. To publish a “Top DJ” list would be to undermine the originality, ingenuity, and dauntless imagin...
Watch This Epic Christmas Light Show Set to David Guetta and Sia’s Classic “Titanium”
Almost a decade after its release, “Titanium” still hits different. Months after “Never Gonna Give You Up” singer Rick Astley breathed life into the dance classic, a Fresno homeowner named Jordan Willis has now used David Guetta and Sia‘s iconic track as the soundtrack to an epic light show this holiday season. Willis, who has been meticulously decking out the home for half a year, gave the song’s inescapable refrain of “fire away, fire away” new meaning with a grandiose display of 12,000 dancing lights. An unquestionable highlight is the show’s smiley LED Christmas tree installment, which has eyes and a mouth that actually sings along to the lyrics. Check out the light show below. Through his Lights on Dovewood ...
Listen to David Guetta, MORTEN, and Lanie Gardner’s EDM Cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams”
We would like to think Stevie Nicks is feeling a sense of pride seeing the overnight success of young singer Lanie Gardner. Gardner’s life was flipped upside down after a TikTok video of her singing a cover of Fleetwood Mac‘s iconic song “Dreams” went viral. Now, with the backing of two of EDM’s biggest stars David Guetta and MORTEN, she is in the spotlight for a much-deserved second time. The trio has released their electronic rendition of “Dreams,” doubling down on the explosive growth of Gardner’s scintillating cover. The “future rave” tandem completely transformed the Fleetwood Mac classic, but Gardner keeps its pure essence alive with her hypnotizing vocals. With its entrancing synths and soaring house drop, this cover h...
David Guetta and MORTEN Share Preview of Collab With Viral “Dreams” Singer Lanie Gardner
When Lanie Gardner posted her cover of Fleetwood Mac‘s iconic track “Dreams” to TikTok, little did she know what would come of the decision. After her seemingly innocuous upload went viral, Gardner’s world flipped upside down. Within ten days, she signed a deal with Jonas Group Entertainment—the management arm of the Jonas Brothers—further validating the power of TikTok and its formidable influence in the music industry. It’s clear that the 21-year old pop artist has swerved onto a road to fame, and the first exit she’s taking is into the EDM landscape. Gardner caught the attention of dance music stars David Guetta and MORTEN, who have tapped the young songstress for what looks to be an electronic rendition of the Fleetwood Mac classic tha...
Vintage Culture and Fancy Inc Deliver Retro Remix of David Guetta and Sia’s “Let’s Love”
David Guetta has spent the majority of 2020 refining his electrifying “future rave” sound with MORTEN. In September, he switched gears to release his wildly popular synthwave single with Sia, “Let’s Love.” Their collaborative effort has now received the remix treatment from Vintage Culture and Fancy Inc. Vintage Culture and Fancy Inc have embodied some of David Guetta and MORTEN’s patented “future rave” sound with their remix of “Let’s Love” all while still managing to inject each of their unique styles into the track. Sia’s unmistakable voice remains untouched as the Brazilian producers have stripped the original tune of its synthwave feel for something more minimalistic. However, their remix still expertly evok...

Go Behind the Scenes of David Guetta and MORTEN’s Gripping “Save My Life” Music Video [Exclusive]
Directed by Balázs Simon, the video is dark and mysterious, perfectly matching the tone of “Save My Life.” While David Guetta and MORTEN have been putting out “future rave” music for over a year now, they had yet to pursue a full blown music video for a track until now, with the release of “Save My Life.” Released on November 13th via Musical Freedom, Tiësto‘s record label, the track and music video fit like a lock and a key, harmoniously translating dark and edgy synths with spellbinding visuals. The music video, directed by Balász Simon, follows one man as he engages in a gripping pursuit of reconciliation with a past trauma. Highlights include a tense drive down a foggy country road and a poignant encounter with a young boy,...
David Guetta and MORTEN Drop Future Rave Anthem “Save My Life” Featuring Lovespeake
Alongside the track, the pair has released a music video directed by Balazs Simon. David Guetta and MORTEN have spent the vast majority of 2020 proliferating their newly minted “future rave” sound. Just last month, the prolific pair flipped Guetta’s collab with Sia, “Let’s Love,” into an intoxicating house smash. Today, they have returned with a fresh single entitled “Save My Life,” out via Tiësto‘s Musical Freedom imprint. “Save My Life,” which features Lovespeake, is yet another bombastic future rave anthem from the duo that feels like an extension of their well-received New Rave EP.

Watch David Guetta Perform Live from Budapest’s Széchenyi Bath for the 2020 MTV EMAs
It was a massive week for David Guetta. In addition to his crowing as DJ Mag‘s #1 DJ in the publication’s dubious yearly “Top 100 DJs” rankings, he also won the award for “Best Electronic” at the 2020 MTV Europe Music Awards. To commemorate his EMA win, the barnstorming “Titanium” hit-maker performed live from Budapest’s Széchenyi Bath, the largest medicinal bath in Europe. The EMA production team pulled out all the stops for the momentous performance, as they constructed a festival-grade stage decked to the nines with lasers. For his performance of “Let’s Love,” his recent collaborative track with Sia, Guetta tapped fast-rising British vocalist RAYE, who delivered a dynamic performance of the 80-inspire...

Robin Schulz Drops Dreamy Remix of David Guetta and Sia’s “Let’s Love” [Premiere]
“Synthwave” may not be the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to EDM superstar David Guetta, but that’s the idea behind his latest single with pop superstar Sia. “Let’s Love” has a distinctively 80s feel, characteristic of the enormous surge in synthwave’s popularity as of late. Now, prolific German producer Robin Schulz has been called to the plate for remix duties on “Let’s Love,” and his distinctive sound shines through with his vision of the track. Lending his unmistakable house sound to the single, Schulz maintains the nostalgic vibe of the original while pumping it full of dance floor grooves and plucked strings. Sia’s vocals remain as poignant as ever, generating a dreamy emotion within the s...
