The Grammys Production Company Set to Create DJ Awards Spinoff in America

Posted in Bangin, News by nick | Tags: , , , , , ,

The Grammys have had a stronger electronic presence in recent years, especially with Skrillex winning 3 awards 2 years running. Yet overall the Grammy’s seem severely out of the loop with the current electronic world, take the Al Walsner incident as an example.

Well Dick Clark Productions, the company responsible for producing the Grammys have crafted the idea of the first American DJ Awards show and have already begun shopping it around to find the proper TV Network. This new award show should add to the growing presence of electronic music in America, which should lead to a more positive light for electronic music as a whole in American media. Electronic events and organizations would start seeing more respect for their events that have been written off by some as giant senseless parties or raves. This could be a huge step forward for electronic music, proving that it is here to stay.

Think this is a good move for electronic music? Who do you think would be a fitting judge for this show? What would qualify them?

Avicii – New Album Promo Mix 2013 : Including New Album Tracks

Posted in Bangin by nick | Tags: , , , , , ,

Avicii played main stage at this year’s Ultra Music Festival and through down a contreversial set debuting tracks off his new album. He collaborated with artists such as country star Mac Davis, bluegrass musician Dan Tyminski, singer Audra Mae, soul artist Aloe Blacc, Incubus guitarists Mike Einziger and Ben Kenney. His set got critsized for having too much of a country  and live influence. The live instrumentation may have been a little to overwhelming for the DJ mold seen at Ultra. The funniest part is that people hated on Avicii when he would played “Levels” non stop and other typical house tracks, and now hate on the guy for stepping outside of the box and bringing in live instrumentation to house music.

He just let loose “Promo Mix 2013″ featuring a lot of the tracks he debuted at his live set. The mix basically sounds the Avicii you know with some adiditonal live elements. It spans from progressive house to some gritty electro action. Loving what I have heard so far. Listen and let us know what you think? Enjoy!
