DJ Mike Perry

Within the walls of the EDM world. Many of the top named musicians and DJ's hail from Sweden. Mike Perry laughingly says,"The weather plays a huge role. So does the musical education that students are introduced to at school."

Galantis

Most groups, DJ's and performers surround their presence with a symbol. For Galantis it's the infamous Sea Fox. As strange as it may look or seem. The reach is greater by way of fans latching onto it and allowing it to become part of the performance.

Mellowtone

Putting together your first album with a new lead singer isn't the pleasure cruise of a lifetime. A lot goes into the process of recreating what your band is known for. For Mellowtone... the addiction of a new member and producer opened the gates for better flow of opportunity. But to get there chances had to be taken. Which has paid off for this Switzerland Trip Hop music machine.

Major Lazer

With a name like Major Lazer it's completely natural think its a party of one. When in fact its an Electronic band making huge waves within the present sounds of Pop. The type of music that has to last longer than the average song. And that requires a connection to unique processes.

The Weeknd Credits Michael

The Weeknd is back with a new album and single. Plus an incredible Saturday Night Live performance. His connection to fans is huge. Where does this Toronto artist pull his inspiration from?

Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga's father was put on the spot when recently asked about listening to her new album. A very funny moment. Just as powerful was the news of Gaga's decision to be the halftime entertainment at the next Super Bowl.

Audien

Music with all of its labels. For this guy. It's not about what file his sound is placed within. All that matters is the connection he continues to make with people worldwide. EDM is more than electronic music. It's being seen in everything from Country to Hip Hop. Audien is that master mixer that's making it a music project not just another category.

Alicia Keys

Her new song In Common has been compared to the connection Marvin Gaye created with all people. Even though she laughs it off. The depth of the entire new album puts Alicia Keys into an area of music that only legends are invited to participate. The writing reaches beyond popular fads. It speaks to the soul of a wandering generation.

Paul Oakenfold

The art of being a DJ has slipped a bit from where it initially slipped in. According to Master Mixer Paul Oakenfold the platform has changed due to the imagination creating the sound. The DJ's are now waiting for the producers to bring them the music. Rather than the original idea starting first with the DJ.

Alan Walker Is Anything But Faded

The tail and tale of a song can reach beyond from this present moment. For Alan Walker. His current release faded actually began in 2014. Not a DJ or a Master Mixer but in his words it was a music production. One that has caught on world wide. The reaction of his followers catching on is still mind blowing to him.

Lady Gaga Perfect Illusion

Guess you could say we're all guilty of it. Designing what we think is the perfect illusion. The digital platform and social media connections has turned our points of view into a daily stage and or performance. Lady Gaga talks about it while letting us in on how she reacted when word came that she had returned to number one.

Kungs On Dancing

It's completely natural to think the great master mixers of sound filling the dance floor are dancers themselves. Not true. French born music genius Kungs wastes no time in trying to put movement in his feet. It's never been his thing. But setting up the right stage is. While creating a show that can often times include more than the boom boom in songs.

Borgeous

EDM festivals have every continent. It's great to be a DJ. But is it where today's master mixers truly want to be? Borgeous still loves the vibe private clubs offer. And yet once inside there are times the mixer has to play the sounds the club that hired him or her prefers.

A Trak

At the age of 16 A Trak knew he'd be doing music. But he didn't know for how long. He didn't want to be a 40 year old without a career. Although he was winning huge dj championships he still kept cool about going to school. One year in college that all changed when he met Kanye West...

The Chainsmokers

There used to be a time when mix shows were only found on Saturday night radio. Today the masters of the board are the performance at major arenas and events. Getting there requires connection. You can't suddenly show up and expect the audience to accept the sound. For The Chainsmoker's its been all about reaching out to the singer/songwriter/performers and helping them while they help you.

Rain Man Makes It Pour

He turned a second place DJ battle off in Chicago into a once in a lifetime meeting with the man that would lead his art toward a place of raining a fortune. No matter how high the success the goal is to keep his attitude level headed and approachable.

Phantogram

Can there be an evolution in the center of a music revolution? With so many sounds randomly spinning in clubs to concerts. You can't help but to participate with the presence while developing your own sound. Phantogram kept free of the New York music scene to develop a taste people are now discovering.

Tiesto Talks EDM

The future of EDM. Multiple masses are still discovering what the masters are beginning to set aside. Unless you're Tiesto who still sees plenty of room for the evolution of sound to reach areas waiting to collect in large crowds and or crank up on other digital platforms.

Alesso

Stepping into a studio to drop vocals and other tracks is no longer the final step of music's journey. Artist's realize the master mixers of long lasting sound are the DJ's that grew up on the floors of extremely dark night clubs. Alesso is one such feature. His work with Madonna has sprouted flowers of success on the paths of singer/songwriters in search of where the listener is set to arrive.

Eliot Sumner's Seclusion

Part of being a true musician is getting in touch with the universal energies that move through you during the process of writing music. Eliot Sumner retreated to a secluded area with only his dog. His latest release After Dark heard on rBeatz.com is part of that process.
