11 Years Later, Steve Aoki Delivers Dose of Dance Music Nostalgia With Remix of “No Beef”
Steve Aoki and Afrojack‘s “No Beef” became a gateway to discovering dance music for a new generation of listeners. Now, 11 years following its release, Aoki is rekindling the magic through a fresh perspective. In 2011, the frenetic tune with vocals from Miss Palmer was an instant attention-grabber given the intersection of Aoki’s electro house characteristics and Afrojack’s influence within the stylistically adjacent Dutch house movement. Never one to tie himself to any given genre, Aoki didn’t hesitate to tweak the winning formula over a decade later. With his new remix, he shakes up the drum arrangement with the kicks, snares, and percussion more consistent with the tech house arrangements dominating the airwaves today. At heart, however, the new versi...

Riot Ten Drops Riveting Sophomore Album, “Hype or Die: Homecoming”
Riot Ten made the most of his quarantine, taking that time to develop his sophomore album, Hype Or Die: Homecoming. The new record, released on Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak Records, showcases the producer’s trademark “Hype Or Die” sound and offers insight into his ability to take on explorative sonic ventures.

Marshmello, ILLENIUM, More Top Diversified Lollapalooza Lineup
Lollapalooza is set to turn 30 this year in stunning fashion. It’s been a whirlwind of a week for the Chicago based festival. After a surprising report suggested the City of Chicago gave Lollapalooza the green light to host their 2021 edition “at near-to or full capacity” a mere three days ago, organizers C3 Presents have now dropped a massive lineup that appears to corroborate the news. As is typically the case, Lollapalooza’s bookings span the decades and defy a bias towards any particular genre, from Foo Fighters to Journey, and Miley Cyrus to Tyler The Creator. For dance music, Marshmello and ILLENIUM find themselves near the top of the bill with the trifecta of Alison Wonderland, SLANDER, and Steve Aoki a couple lines further down. In the heart of the...

BLVK JVCK Teams Up With Riot Ten on Rowdy New Single “TIK TOK”
BLVK JVCK, also known as the hoodstep legend, and Riot Ten are here to make your weekend a little more rowdy with their new single “TIK TOK” featuring $teve Cannon. This mosh-inducing track falls in line with the two producers’ modus operandi of holding nothing back in the studio. The aptly titled single also could not have come at a better time with the short-form video platform dominating the social media world (at least for now). “TIK TOK” features Cannon’s hard-hitting verses paired masterfully with the dark wobbles laid down by BLVK JVCK and Riot Ten. While it feels constructed for the destruction of live audiences, its thunderous hybrid of hip-hop and dubstep oozes the kind of depravity perfect for a hype song for all those trying to sta...
Steve Aoki Announces First Ever Drive-In Concert
How much wiper fluid would it take to remove a splattered cake from a windshield? Barnstorming DJ, music producer, and cake-hurler Steve Aoki has announced his first-ever drive-in concert. Drive-in shows have become the new norm during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, so it’s no surprise that one of the most popular artists in dance music has thrown his hat into the vehicular rave ring. Aoki will be descending on the Atlanta Motor Speedway in Henry County, Georgia on November 13th, 2020, bringing dubstep don Riot Ten along for the metaphorical ride. While the show of course offers a one-of-a-kind concert experience, it also represents a good opportunity for target practice for Aoki, whose arm is probably rusty after so much time in quarantine. How far can he hurl a cake,...
