Jean-Michel Jarre Recruits Deathpact for Dark, Brooding Remix of “BRUTALISM”: Listen
A music legend has joined forces with one of EDM’s most puzzling acts. For decades, the 74-year-old Jean-Michel Jarre has been innovating electronic music and the way we interact with it.

Deathpact to Play Four Shows In As Many Cities On the Same Night
Deathpact are multiplying at an alarming rate. Last month, fans were shocked to see a second Deathpact member taking the stage at Shambhala Music Festival.
