Rewind: On This Day in 2016, Cookie Monsta Released Fan-Favorite VIP of “Party Drink Smoke”
Back in October the dance music community tragically said goodbye to Cookie Monsta, a pioneering artist in the dubstep world, gone far too soon. The bass music producer made his mark with the support of Circus Records, a label founded by his longtime colleagues and friends, Flux Pavilion and Doctor P. Four years ago today, Cookie Monsta had a career-defining moment when he dropped an incendiary VIP remix of Flux Pavilion and Doctor P’s collaboration “Party Drink Smoke (feat. Jarren Benton).” The late artist kicked up the tempo and distortion a notch, and with bellowing bass and intricately layered vocals, he led listeners into a stampeding rush of energy capable of riling up a festival audience in a flash. With Cookie Monsta’s fresh new spin, the track see...

“Streaming Websites are Shameless”: Flux Pavilion Calls for Increased Artist Support
Due to the increased need for social distancing and reduced number of paid live performance opportunities, many artists big and small are struggling to stay afloat during the global health crisis. Not one to mince his words, fabled bass music producer Flux Pavilion recently took to Twitter to share how although millions of fans listen to his music, he receives little money from the streaming services that host it, such as Spotify. In a series of tweets, the dubstep icon called those streaming companies “shameless” and detailed his concerns about how difficult it is for artists to make money during the COVID-19-induced live music shutdown. “It just dawned on me that I spend every day writing music and millions of you listen to it, but next to none of th...
San Holo Celebrates Tenth Anniversary of Flux Pavilion’s “I Can’t Stop” With Acoustic Cover
It’s hard to believe it’s been ten years since the release of Flux Pavilion‘s iconic tune, “I Can’t Stop.” For many, the song served as an introduction to the electronic music world as a whole due to its widespread popularity with listeners across many genres. In honor of its accomplishments and impact on the scene, San Holo has shared an acoustic cover of the track. While short, the cover is a gentle reimagining of the party-starting original. He replaced its signature bass cannons and echoing lyrics with soft guitar chords and tender vocals to create a song more appropriate for a quiet evening by the fire rather than a packed dancefloor (remember those?). After catching wind of the video, Flux Pavilion shared the post and explained how ...

Flux Pavilion Teases New Track Rumored to Be from Upcoming Album
A little over a month after the release of his latest single, “Sink Your Teeth In” with Drowsy, Flux Pavilion is back with a teaser of his next tune. Flux took to Twitter to share a video with nothing but wave and speaker emojis and a brief look at what’s to come. In the short teaser clip, viewers can hear a portion of a still-unidentified vocalist’s tale of heartbreak.

Both “Sink Your Teeth In” and the teased release are rumored to be featured on Flux Pavilion’s upcoming album. Earlier in the week, he detailed the record’s debut a...

Get Into the Summer Groove With June’s New Releases [Playlist]
Still stuck in quarantine for the foreseeable future, DJs and producers are using the free time to churn out new releases. Last month Armin van Buuren had not one, but three new releases. That includes his most recent melodic house track, “Hollow,” and two festival-ready big room tracks, “Boom Boom” and “Tarzan” with Blasterjaxx. After releasing his London Sessions album in May, Tiësto is still dropping new music too. This time he went with a more bouncy house sound in “Tomorrow.” Nora En Pure also has been busy making new songs while she’s stuck at home. According to a press release for her first release of the year, “All I Need,” fans can expect “a steady stream of new music over the rest of the year.”&nbs...
Flux Pavilion and Feed Me Join Forces for Dream Collaboration, “Survive”
In a bona fide dream collaboration, two of bass music’s finest, Flux Pavilion and Feed Me, have joined forces for a monster single called “”Survive (feat. meesh).” The single arrived today on the former’s flagship Circus Records imprint days after the latter teased the track on social media, sending both fanbases into a tizzy. Eschewing the use of the dark bass elements fans are most familiar with, Feed Me and Flux Pavilion opt to go the melodic route, delivering a jaunty synthwave jam that should be a hit not only in the streaming landscape, but also the gaming community. With soaring saws and pulsating bass patches in its drops, “Survive” has all the accoutrements of a future bass smash but doesn̵...
