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.

EDM.com Presents: The House Brew, Vol. 13
“Grapevine” – Lane 8 feat. Elderbrook Elderbrook’s tender vocals float gently above Lane 8’s bustling instrumentation on “Grapevine.” The song’s sentimental character is a result of a personal backstory. “Back when I was living in San Francisco after college, I used to regularly take road trips down to LA to visit friends (and usually go to a lot of raves),” Lane 8 wrote on Instagram. “I had a good job but I felt unfulfilled, and those trips came to provide meaning to my life as I started to figure out my purpose. part of the drive to LA is the infamous grapevine, which is where the chorus and title of this song come from. Whatever was going on in my life at that moment, passing through the grapevine was a time to process the past, regrets and disappointment, but also a moment where ...

Lane 8’s “Reviver” Album Is Sonic Rejuvenation
Lane 8‘s brand new album is an introspective search for a more hopeful tomorrow. In the lead-up to the “Run” producer’s first album since 2020, he previewed a kaleidoscopic offering of singles. While tracks like “Automatic” (with Solomon Grey) and “What Have You Done To Me?” (with Arctic Lake) showcased the melancholic deep house sound Lane 8 fans have come to know and love, he wasn’t intent on simply rehashing history. The album’s titular track “Reviver” and “Nuclear Lethargy” bring a distinctly energizing new flare to the producer’s discography that in some respects feels like his preparation for the festival stage. Lane 8 has become a relatively new favorite on the festival circuit and will b...
