Following the postponement of their 2020 event due to COVID-19 concerns, the organizers of Summer Camp Music Festival have announced the lineup for its 2021 edition. The Chillicothe, Illinois fest is set to take place May 28th to 30th, 2021 and features an expansive lineup of major electronic music artists, funk acts, rappers, and more. All of the headliners that were announced prior to the postponement are returning except for GRiZ. Even without bass music’s de facto funk master general, the genre is well-represented, as REZZ, Snails, CloZee, WHIPPED CREAM, Boogie T, Moody Good, and LSDREAM are primed for appearances, among others. Staying true to its roots, Summer Camp also tapped many illustrious jam bands for its 2021 fest, including moe., Umphrey’s McGee, and STS9. “...
Vancouver’s own WHIPPED CREAM has been making waves with her unique fusion of hip-hop and bass music elements for quite some time, blossoming into one of EDM’s brightest stars. Her new release, “I Won’t Let You Fall” (feat. Finn Askew)” is another forward-thinking offering that’s sure to become a summer earworm. WHIPPED CREAM’s latest single is simultaneously a sultry summer bop and an absolute heater. Dark and gritty, nearly synthwave-inspired production and a slower house tempo provide a driving groove that sits nicely under Askew’s R&B infused verses. The track is reminiscent of SZA and Kendrick Lamar‘s hit “All The Stars” or some of Drake‘s deeper cuts. However, make no mistake:—”...

EDM.com wishes a Happy Father’s Day not only to all the dads out there, but also the moms who took on both roles for their kids. To celebrate Father’s Day this year, we connected with some of the biggest artists in dance music, who shared their fondest memories of their father or their children. Break out the tissues because there are some tearjerkers. NGHTMRE “A few years back it somehow worked out that I was playing Sunday of EDC and it was Father’s Day! I flew him out for the weekend and had him hop on stage as a special guest for 1 song. Without thinking much about it I called him “Papa NGHTMRE” over the mic and he has since adopted the nickname. As we walked around the festival after, fans came up to ask for pictures with him! It was a great memory for both of us.” c...

WHIPPED CREAM is proving her next-level talent as a bass tastemaker with her new remix package for “I Do The Most” featuring Lil Keed, out now via Atlantic Records. The remix bundle opens up with BIJOU‘s version of the cut, as he has transformed the low-key rap track into a certified g-house heater with an intoxicating bassline. Knock2 also impresses on his rendition of the track, as he ups the energy from front to back with whirling samples and sporadic vocal chops. Pixel Terror takes an approach most fans may not expect, as the duo steps into the world of house music. JACKNIFE and longstoryshort both rework “I Do The Most” into a rumbling bass house track as well, with the former hitting listeners with aggressive stab...
ILLENIUM has released a remix package for his third album, ASCEND. The ASCEND remix album is a perfect blend of genres. Artists such as Drezo, Breathe Carolina, and Snakehips have reworked fan favorites into house heaters while the likes of WHIPPED CREAM, Blunts & Blondes, and Tisoki have given some tracks a healthy dose of bass. SLANDER, William Black, and ARMNHMR were amongst those who stuck with the floatier, future bass side of things. The package also contains a handful of previously released remixes, including Tiësto and Travis Barker‘s remixes of “Good Things Fall Apart (with Jon Bellion)” and Alan Walker‘s remix of “In Your Arms (with X Ambassadors).” Undoubtedly, ILLENIUM has selected a star-studded cast to remix his best works yet...
