Miami's nightlife scene is a revolving door. Any given club can be closed, repurchased, and reopened faster than the time it takes Deadmau5 to make a snide remark about it.

Deep house guru Chris Malinchak never disappoints when it comes to combining melody and soul. Now, his bright and ethereal tune, "If U Got It," gets a dance-d up facelift by Mark Knight.

In case you were wondering what the Greek letters meant, they're the initials of Escor Krist, the most recent addition to Boyz Noize Records. Based in Los Angeles, the new signee just put out a debut album worthy of a second listen, to say the least...

EDM is no longer a DJs game. Infected Mushroom's drummer Cary White has been hard at work fusing his two passions: live drumming and a signature dance music sound with his recent project, Drums On Acid. While still in its beginning stages, the project has already received applause from listeners and tested producers and performers alike...

Compiling an end-of-the-year playlist from the 600+ tracks he's brought to fans over the past twelve months through his VONYC Sessions could not have been an easy task for legend Paul Van Dyk. After much anticipation, though, we're extremely pleased with the breathtaking journey he's created for us with VONYC 2013...

It isn't scheduled for release until January 14th, but its already won the support of producers Nicky Romero, Diplo, W&W, and more. Vato Gonzalez's "Volfied Riddim," named after the 1989 arcade game Volfied, conjures early gamer memories with its stripped back bare-bones tribal beat...
