Malaa‘s incendiary brand of G-House was destined sooner or later to satiate the rap community’s newfound interest in dance music. With the release of his new album, Don Malaa, the masked mafioso shows just how potent that demand really is. The album sees Malaa flexing the full spectrum of his sound in a well-curated effort which sees him teaming up with rappers hailing from all walks. The adrenaline-fueled Don Malaa hits the gas in its introduction with the frantic patter of running footsteps—and it never looks back. c/o Press The album’s first verse, from Brooklyn drill rapper Fivio Foreign, is certainly one for the highlight reel. Escalating his cadence in the build, Foreign lays the groundwork for an epic beat switch from Malaa, who blasts down the doors with the...

Venerated house music producers Tchami and AC Slater have assembled the finest artists from their respective record labels in a bass house showcase, Confessions X Night Bass: The Album. The compilation boasts the brightest stars on both the Night Bass and Confession constellations. The joint venture is careful in its approach to not outshine the other, instead obscurely blending both collectives. Opting to home in on the similarities between the two house music imprints, the album is cohesive and ultimately delivers a powerful collection of records ready for the dancefloor. Speaking of the dancefloor, the introductory track is a piercing bullet of a record, with its aim on the discotheque. With vocals by Kate Wild, “Only One” is the brainchild of Tchami...
Househeads, rejoice. Not only are flag-bearers Tchami and AC Slater about to hit the road together, but they’re also bringing together top talent from their record labels, Confession and Night Bass, for a massive collaborative album. Due January 14th, the Confession x Night Bass release is perfectly timed with the Denver kickoff date of an eponymous tour. According to social media teasers, the album will include music by BIJOU, Habstrakt, Nostalgix, Blossom, Capozzi and MASTERIA, among others. Many of them will join the pair of label heads on the road as a rotating slate of supporting talent. “Get ready to hear heat from all of your favorites,” Tchami wrote on Instagram. “Couldn’t be more excited to kick off the new year with my Confession & Night Ba...
Imagine going from the opening slot at Exchange L.A.—performing to a near-empty venue—to headlining and selling out the following year. For 26-year-old DJ and dance music producer ACRAZE, this was reality. Before becoming the red-hot “Do It To It” artist we all know and love, his music production journey started on a much different path. In an exclusive interview with EDM.com, ACRAZE admits that growing up, he “was not very musically inclined.” But his interest was piqued during his senior year of high school, when he knew he wanted to become a DJ. ACRAZE then went on to release his first original production, “Pull Up,” in 2017 via 4B‘s MACA imprint. It’s now a far cry from what fans have come to know and expect ...
Little Monsters, rejoice: Lady Gaga‘s Dawn of Chromatica remix album has finally arrived. Fans have endured over 15 months and a revolving door of rumors since Gaga’s chart-topping, cyberpunk-themed Chromatica album dropped, but the wait was worth it. Executive produced by BloodPop®, Dawn of Chromatica is a supercollider of genre-bending dance music. Hyperactive electronic crossover bangers speckle the album like a paintball gun gone haywire. Renowned producer A. G. Cook teamed up with Charli XCX for a fierce rendition of Gaga’s Madeon-assisted “911,” a captivating cry for help that came with a spine-chilling short film. Meanwhile, Arca warps the tempo of “Rain On Me” (with Ariana Grande) in a blissfully quirky house rendition w...
Tchami has unveiled 19—yes, 19—brilliant reworks of music from his debut album, Year Zero. There’s no doubt that longtime fans of the French future house pioneer will rock out to the expansive album, which explores house music and its many sub-genres with fluid precision. Standouts from the album are aplenty. Tchami was smart to tap blossoming Mind of a Genius artist Mindchatter, whose edit of “Heartless” (with Chace) kicks off the record with a hypnotic punch. Galantis and Bali Bandits join forces for a saccharine, disco-inspired rendition of “Buenos Aires,” a track that ANGELZ takes into rave territory with a four-to-the-floor, 150 BPM hyper-house rework. Dirtybird cofounder Justin Martin offers up a foot-tapping deep house edit of &...
Following the announcement of Lollapalooza‘s full lineup two weeks ago, organizers have released the daily schedule breakdown for the upcoming four-day event. As in prior years, electronic artists have nabbed two of the top headlining slots. This year ILLENIUM and Marshmello will fill those roles on Thursday and Friday, respectively. Meanwhile, fans of the festival’s dedicated electronic outfit, Perry’s Stage, will have no trouble staying busy. Thursday features notable sets from Kaytranada, Steve Aoki, and Tchami while Friday belongs to the bassheads, boasting performances from Wooli, Subtronics, Riot Ten, and more. Saturday finds a balance with Oliver Heldens, SLANDER, and Lost Kings dotting the lineup while Sunday holds some of the festival’s...
Earlier this week, Tchami revealed that a remix album for his debut LP Year Zero was in the works. After a wave of speculation surrounding who the record’s first remixer would be, the wait is over. The first remix from the record has arrived today by way of one of his most frequent collaborators: Malaa. Per usual, Malaa’s remix of the Gunna-assisted “Praise” is nothing short of superb. The mysterious Parisian producer has flipped the tune on its head, reworking the upbeat nature of the original with his own dark twist. Although both versions are club-ready, they issue vastly different vibes courtesy of Malaa’s signature brooding production. “When I asked Malaa which track he wanted to remix, he picked ‘Praise’ featuring Gunna almost insta...
Tchami‘s acclaimed debut album Year Zero will soon be given a shot of adrenaline via an upcoming remix bundle. The French house superstar and Confession founder today took to social media to reveal the album and announce that its first remix will drop this Friday, May 28th. However, he refrained from sharing who produced it. All fans can do at the moment is take wild guesses based off the comments in the post. Many Confession mainstays dropped in with comments to stir the pot, including ANGELZ, Ibranovski, and Marten Hørger, but it seems the vast majority of fans are calling for French dance music compatriot Malaa. Check out Tchami’s announcement below. Year Zero dropped back in October 2020, when Tchami released a 16-track debut that quickly became one of 2020’...
