SWINDLE - WALTERS CALL EP

 It's good to have friends in high places. Flux Pavillion made mention of this guy on Twitter, and of course we had to go check him out for ourselves. Trying to classify his style only puts a cage over what he works so hard to avoid; a genre. Call it electroswing, call it trap, call it whatever you want to call it, but Swindle has got IT. Infusing the sounds of big band instruments into his trap undertones makes for an EP unlike any other. Listen to his 3 track set below then make sure to head to his Soundcloud for more!

STEVE AOKI & FLUX PAVILLION - GET ME OUTTA HERE

SAFE IN SOUND FESTIVAL

It's no secret that the world of music festivals has exploded over the past few years, evolving from a few thousand to over 300,000 people in just a few short years. Tomorrowland, arguably one of the world's best festivals, just celebrated it's 10th anniversary this year with 2 massive weekends and tickets selling out in under a minute. Electric Daisy Carnival has grown from a one-time one-city festival, to a worldwide event in 5 cities over 3 countries. With festivals now competing for fans, boasting 30 full-sized carnival rides, 6 stages, 450 theatrical performers, 150+ artists, and an 8 figure budget, how can new festivals make themselves stand out? 

Enter the "Safe in Sound Festival". To make yourself stand out in the world of electronic music, you have to be different, and stand out this festival does. With a focus on the bass of electronic music, Safe in Sound will be bringing along a 150,000 watt rig, touted as the most "powerful touring sound system" ever used for electronic music. For comparison, Beta Nightclub, always in the top 5 for sound systems, employs just over 100,000 watts. This behemoth of a sound system will be traveling to 20 cities in its inaugural year with the artists to back it up. Some of the releases headliners include Flux Pavilion, Adventure Club, Zeds Dead, and Excision. Check below to see if they are coming to a city near you, then head to their website to get your tickets.
