Katy Perry Has a New Song With Zedd Coming Out This Year
After releasing her newest track alongside Alesso, pop superstar Katy Perry has even more plans in the dance music space in 2022. A source told The Sun‘s “Bizarre” column that Perry has a lot coming down the pipeline for this year, and she is “determined to make 2022 her year.” This includes a fiery collaboration with leading electronic music producer Zedd, but it won’t be their first. They previously teamed up on “365,” which was released on Valentine’s Day in 2019. In December 2021, Perry kicked off her Las Vegas residency at the Resorts World Theatre and has nearly sold out. The show has allowed her to become more “artistic” and spend time with her family. Recommended Articles “Her current Las Vegas residence h...
Nine Years Later, Foxes Reflects On Pressure Following Grammy Win For “Clarity”
For a budding musician, what could be more serendipitous than a Grammy Award right at the start of their career? That is the position singer-songwriter Foxes found herself in back in 2014, when her work on Zedd‘s “Clarity” nabbed the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. Nearly 10 years after its 2012 release, the generational anthem still manages to make crowds go gaga. “I was like, ‘Oh, wait a minute. I’ve just been writing in a bedroom, and I’m suddenly in LA holding a Grammy! I don’t really know how to deal with this!’” reflected the Brit in a recent interview with the Philippine Daily Inquirer. “I don’t really think I was a pop act,” she remembered. “The major label I was with put me in a box…I was trying to ...

“I Feel More Alive”: How ACRAZE Achieved Chart-Topping Success Through Sacrifice
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 ...

Martin Garrix and Zedd Are Teasing a Long-Awaited Collab
A long-awaited collaboration between Martin Garrix and Zedd may finally be on the horizon. The two dance music superstars have been toying with their fans on social media in the last few days, sharing a number of agonizingly contextless clips recorded during recent studio sessions. In an Instagram Story shared on November 2nd Garrix offered a brief glimpse into the song’s project file, which revealed a BPM of 128. Ergo, a house track is likely in the works.

The Time a Quaint Malibu Winery Was Transformed Into a Rave With Zedd
Close your eyes and picture it: you step onto the grassy, sun-kissed lawn of a Malibu winery. You lay down a colorful picnic blanket. You pour flamingo-pink rosé into delicate champagne flutes and sip with your pinky in the air. None of that happened last month at the famous Rosenthal Wine Bar and Patio, which was transformed into a taco spice-fueled rave. Tucked in a nook off the Pacific Coast Highway, the idyllic winery recently welcomed electronic music stars Zedd and Big Wild, who performed on a bespoke stage with a transparent LED panel offering a view of the ocean. Powered and brought to life by First Tube Media, the event was the latest in Grubhub’s Sound Bites, a virtual episodic concert series that attracts millions of viewers thanks to its immersive livestreams.

Here’s something to latch onto: Disclosure and Zedd have been spotted in the studio. Zedd took to Instagram yesterday to share a clip from a studio session with the “Latch” hitmakers. The video shows Guy Lawrence at the piano, recording a melody for an upbeat deep house demo as his brother Howard, the other esteemed member of Disclosure, looms.

We Surveyed Dance Music Fans On Which Iconic Early 2010’s Single Deserved a 2021 Rework
Fans are yearning for the soaring, euphoric riffs characteristic of the iconic house music singles that dominated the early 2010s. At least, that’s one interpretation of a new EDM.com social media poll. When we asked the fans which classic dance music single needed some 2021 remix magic, nearly 20,000 nostalgic respondents weighed in. By a wide margin, electronic music fans felt Swedish House Mafia‘s swan song, “Don’t You Worry Child” could use a resurgence. The single was among the first dance tracks at the time to land on major metropolitan pop radio stations, unifying fans across the globe in the process. Simultaneously, we sullenly counted down to the conclusion of the group’s One Last Tour, which felt like the definitive end to an era. Li...
