Pendulum thankfully won’t be waiting another decade to release music. When COVID-19 knocked the live music community out cold with a swift jab to the chin, many artists hit the studio and dropped a flurry of new songs. Producers released new music at a breakneck pace, but it was the gobsmacking September 2020 return of Pendulum that took the electronic scene by storm. The legendary drum & bass outfit released their first new songs in a decade, dropping two new singles, “Driver” and “Nothing for Free,” each of which featured the signature pillars of Pendulum’s iconic sound. Now, the group has teased another new track, which is set to release next week on April 15th. Pendulum shared a short clip on social media, offering a glimpse into the un...
REZZ is ramping up, as news of more upcoming high-profile collaborations continues to trickle in. The latest to come to light is a joint track between the “Sacrificial” producer and “LazyBaby” songstress Dove Cameron. The collaboration was discovered when one eagle-eyed fan took a screenshot of a comment from REZZ, which she made during Cameron’s recent livestream. “Can’t wait for our song to come out,” the comment read. The quick-witted fan wasted no time taking to Twitter with the discovery, which was quickly verified by Cameron as fact. Upon this revelation, some were quick to mirror our own initial sentiments of surprise, calling the pairing an “unlikely” one. It was enough to draw a response from Cameron, who intriguingl...
Coming this Friday is a new house collaboration between Elohim and GRiZ called “Bring Me Back.” On Twitter, both artists shared a short preview of the upcoming single, which fans will be excited to hear GRiZ diving into the house side of the electronic music spectrum. This combined with the vocal and production capabilities of Elohim is giving fans of both artists many reasons to be excited for the weekend.

Late last month, Martin Garrix and Maejor—also known as AREA21—shared a cryptic message stating that something’s coming. Now, the duo has followed up with the reveal of a new teaser and release date of new music. Shared across AREA21’s social media pages, the short video depicts an animated rendition of the two artists next to what appears to be a crashed UFO. There is an audio component of the video, but it seems to simply be an introduction of some sort. At the end of the teaser, the date “April 9th” is shown. Fans of AREA21 have already begun to speculate what will happen next week, but no official details have been shared at this time. It’s worth noting that in January 2021, the duo teased that a new album is on the way, so it’s fair t...
SLANDER have teased one of their biggest collaborations to date. Joining forces for the first time in their respective careers, the duo has joined forces with ILLENIUM for a new single. Across their social media pages, SLANDER announced that the yet-to-be-named song is completed and invited fans to join in on the hype. Melodic bass fans have been eagerly awaiting the day the two acts would team up on a song. This desire was further fueled in 2019 when SLANDER released a remix of ILLENIUM’s collaboration with Jon Bellion, “Good Things Fall Apart.” Other than the remix, the two have not released any original music until now. At the time of writing, neither SLANDER nor ILLENIUM have announced a title or release date for their completed collaboration. FOLLOW SLANDER...
Last week, RL Grime shared the news of a “big banger” dropping soon. Just three days later, he’s now offered fans a preview of “Stinger,” a massive bass track produced alongside ISOxo. The menacing “Stinger” sounds like a natural fit in Grime’s catalog. The song’s preview boasts a snippet of its verse, which features haunting, cinematic sound design akin to “Reims,” his fan-favorite track that appeared on 2017’s seminal Nova LP. The audio stops short of the drop, but fans can easily discern that it will be a big one considering the production prowess of his collaborator, ISOxo. With a unique approach to bass music production and a riveting sound all his own, ISOxo is one of the trap music’s scenes golden geese. A...
RL Grime has remained hush-hush since his massive “Halloween IX” mix, but he couldn’t stay quiet any longer ahead of the release of a “big banger” next week. The bass music superstar took to Instagram today to share an announcement of a new single dropping next week, along with a photo dump that ends with a dog in glasses typing on a computer. The post is worth a scroll—check it out below. RL Grime’s last official release came back in August 2020 when he released “Outta Here,” a massive cinematic trap collaboration with Whethan. Later in the year, he went on to release the 9th edition of his fan-favorite Halloween mixes, livestreaming a haunting audiovisual performance that was more akin to a short horror film. At the time of this articl...
It looks like Whethan and NGHTMRE are on the verge of dropping an epic collaboration. Both artists took to Twitter yesterday to drop a not-so-subtle hint that a new song is on the way. The collaboration has been in the works since as early as 2019, but Whethan and NGHTMRE’s tweets may signal a release any day now. What we end up hearing may actually be different than what one might expect from a collab between these two electronic music heavyweights. Considering the fact that Whethan has dabbled in the darker avenues of bass music and NGHTMRE is one of the genre’s most prominent producers , it’s only natural to think a trap banger was on its way. However, if past videos are any indication, they’ll be dropping a monster midtempo track akin to something from REZZ or 1...
It seems deadmau5 is busy in the studio. After revealing a new collaboration with REZZ called “Hypnocurrency” earlier this week, he has now taken to social media to share a preview of another unreleased track. The clip is relatively short, but fans can hear the gritty electro flair of a signature deadmau5 track. It also offers up a taste of the song’s vocals, belted by a singer whose name is yet to be announced. However, it sounds an awful lot like Lights, the superstar singer-songwriter and producer who teamed up with the mau5 back in 2018 for “Drama Free.” Nevertheless, it’s important to note that Lights has not been confirmed as the track’s vocalist. Check out the preview below, courtesy of deadmau5’s Instagram. While we’re unab...

In an interview with the Daily Star, Aloe Blacc referenced that he still has several unreleased collaborations and ideas that he started working on with Avicii—projects he hopes will eventually see the light of day. The powerhouse singer-songwriter behind two of Avicii’s biggest hits, “SOS” and “Wake Me Up,” has been vocal in years past about having several works with Avicii in progress. He indicated that he’s been in contact with Avicii’s team about the unreleased tracks in question, but they are ultimately still pending approval for official release. “I have a few tracks but I am not certain if his record label or family will release them,” Blacc told The Star‘s “Wired” column. “It’s really up ...
Steve Aoki‘s latest mega-collaboration is on its way. This time around, the barnstorming dance music producer and DJ has teamed up with Kiiara and Wiz Khalifa for “Used To Be,” which looks to be a genre-defying hit in the making. Electronic music fans should recognize pop star Kiiara, who is signed to Atlantic Records, for her many collaborations with some of the genre’s most renowned artists. She has teamed up with David Guetta, Don Diablo, and Jai Wolf, among many others, to release a slew of inescapable dance hits. Wiz Khalifa, of course, has also been championing the EDM world for quite some time.
