EDC Vegas 2011 Live Sets
For those of you, myself included, who couldn't make it out to $in City to bask in the gloriousness of its first time hosting the Electric Daisy Carnival, don't worry...we've got several of the live sets for you to enjoy! & enjoy the hell out of these. Cheers n' gratzi to Sirius XM for broadcasting
Dada Life – Control @ Avalon 06.25.11
Last night was absolutely nuts. In case you missed it, Dada Life was in town for a sold out show put on by Control @ Avalon Hollywood. Yours truly was onstage with the boys pumping up the crowd as the Official Dada Life Banana. These guys truly know how to bring the noise. Endless bangers and crazy onstage antics... they really put on a show. Who needs EDC when you got this going on in LA. Here are some highlights of the night.
Enjoy!
CHECK THIS
Sickkkkk video of Zeds Dead absolutely murdering their set at 420 Festival this past April, I wonder what they can do in a 45 minute set....
Catch them this Saturday at EDC. BassPod stage 3:30-4:15am.
Tommie Sunshine & Mightyfools
Remember when bands like Fall Out Boy dominated the musical mind's of our pre-teen adolescence? Been a long time, but it all comes back with this huuuge remix of 'I don't Care' pieced together by Tommie Sunshine and the Mightyfools. I'm not normally one for these sorts of vocals, but this track is phat and catchy (the beat is groovy and the drop circa 1:40 is almost too much) - so much so, that it deserves to be brought to your attention. Enjoy the shit out of this people!
H-H-H-HARDWELLLLL
One of my favorite producers and 100% atop my list for this weekend, the 23 year old Dutchman has been producing and DJing since he was 13 and it shows in every way possible. First discovered by Tiesto, Hardwell's been absolutely killing the game with no shortage of original tracks, remixes, and bootlegs, including his ever famous bootleg of Steve Angello's "Be" and Robin S' "Show Me Love". This weekend will actually be his first time hitting the decks in the US and A, as he'll be hitting both East and West coast spots. It was actually pretty difficult deciding which tracks to post so here's a whole pack for your ears. See you Saturday 11 PM-12 AM at the Neon Garden, Mr. Van De Corput!
Alesso
The kid is only 18 years old, but with support from big name artists such as Avicii, Guetta, and Erick Morillo he's already gained recognition worldwide and will be playing twice on two different stages this weekend. Ever since I first heard his remix of Nadia Ali's "Pressure," I've been hooked onto his tracks. Check out at least one of his sets, either Saturday at Cosmic Meadow from 8-9 PM or the mainstage Kinetic Field 12:30-1 AM Sunday. If you have any doubts check out all the tracks below, each one will convince you further and further.
Show Me – Loops of Fury Remix
Ughhhhhhh. This track is absolutely filthy!!! The Loops of Fury have remixed the shit out of this original by Something A La Mode...phat catchy hip-hop lyrics poured over pure pounding electro bass. Woooo it bangs, this oughta be a nice lil soundtrack for the summer.
Skrillex – Rock n Roll (Will Take You to the Mountain)
from Skrillex himself:
"Here's a video shot from the last eight months of touring I've done... Took a long time to edit this down and pick the right shots since there were too many good times to choose from. Hope you enjoy this..." -Skril

Buy "More Monsters and Sprites EP"
Cosmic Gate
Switching it up a lil bit, this weekend in Vegas also features some of the best trance artists from around the world, including the German born Cosmic Gate. The duo that brought us one of the all-time classics "Exploration Of Space," Claus Terhoeven (aka Nic Chagall) and Stefan Bossems (DJ Bossi) always put on an epic show and yes, I know this dude named Tiesto is spinning at the same time but check out Cosmic from 12-1:15 AM at the Circuit Grounds, I promise you won't be disappointed.
James Horner feat. Leona Lewis - I See You (Cosmic Gate Remix) <--- Avatar theme song
Pryda – Mirage / Juletider / With Me
Check out the new EP by Swedish Producer, Pryda (aka Eric Prydz). This could be the summer EP you are looking for, to play while driving down the PCH with your windows down.

Juletider - Pryda

Feed Me
After attending the insanely disappointing failure of a festival in Dallas this past weekend, I have little to nothing to report of noteworthy or quality news. However, I was able to catch arguably the most highly anticipated act of the night, FEED ME!!!! Jon Gooch, had a Ghostland-esque lazor light show display that blew the crowd away with sheer visual audacity. Not to mention the fact that the man absolutely murdered his set. By far one of my favorite shows of all time - if you haven't picked up what I'm laying down yet, let me put it in layman's terms for you - Whatever you do, if given the opportunity, see Feed Me, the man is a musical monster!!! Here's a bundle of treats for you to snack on to which I honestly cannot establish a favorite, they're all massive dubby electro-house bangers... like I said, he's a monster...Cheers!
Skrilly Illy
Having only caught towards the end of his set at Chella '11, this will be my first real time seeing Sonny Moore aka Skrillex. We've all grown to love his filthy, out of this world sounds with hit singles like "Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites" as well as ridiculous remixes along the likes of his rendition of La Roux's "In For The Kill." Here's a couple tracks your ears might still be virgins to and make sure to check Skrilly out on Saturday, 3-4:30 AM at the Neon Garden.
Shout out also to Bengi G and Plus One, you may know em as Jack Beats, who will be tearing up the stage right before from 2-3 AM.
NEW! David Guetta & Afrojack
Check out these two new tracks by David Guetta and Afrojack. Signature Guetta vocals/buildup + Afrojack Dirty Dutch drop = BANGERS. Rumored to be part of Guetta's F*** Me I'm Famous 2011 Summer Mix.
David Guetta feat. Afrojack - Bass Line (New Jock City)
David Guetta & Afrojack feat. Carmen - Pandemonium
Enjoy!

EDC Week – It’s Me Bitches
With the recent happenings at EDC Dallas, EDM lovers and rave goers begin to look forward to the massive of all EDC massives - EDC Las Vegas, taking place this upcoming weekend at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. With the expected crowds, one can only wonder what insanity will ensue and hope that no youngsters ruin the show. It's EDC Week according to Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman, so I'm gonna make it the same here at DxE with a daily rundown of artists I'm most looking forward to seeing. Kicking it off with the young Dutchman Nicky Romero, whose style I've grown to love more and more with each one of his jams. Can't wait to catch him closing out the entire weekend on Sunday 4:30-6 AM at the Kinetic Field.

1 Death Confirmed… EDC Dallas Shut Down
via DallasNews.comUPDATE: The Dallas County Medical Examiner says the person who died was 19-year-old Andrew James Graf or Argyle. Dallas Fire-Rescue originally said the deceased was a 15-year-old boy, but that appears to be an error on their part.
A 15-year-old 19 year old died and more than two dozen others who were at the Electric Daisy Carnival at Fair Park were hospitalized because of drugs, alcohol and heat-related health problems, authorities said.
No information was immediately available on what may have caused the death of the teen boy who was at the rave, which gained notoriety after the death of a teen girl at the same event in Los Angeles last year.
In addition to the Saturday death, Dallas Fire-Rescue spokesman Jason Evans said "Approximately 25-30 people were taken to local hospitals with a multitude of emergencies related to either drug or alcohol use and even heat related issues."
Authorities described a chaotic scene at Fair Park that began with calls for paramedics about 9 p.m. and ended early this morning.
"At one time there were at least 10 different rescue units responding to the event at once, with a number of Emergency Medical Services Supervisors and engine companies for manpower," Evans said. "The chaos finally came to a rapid stop when someone pulled a fire alarm around 1:30 a.m. and sent those that remained scattering."
EDC Dallas
Dallas, the wait is over. The countdown to the Electric Daisy Carnival has finally faded into oblivion, the clock has struck zero and the chaos is upon us. In preparation for this festive night I've sorted out a few goodies of the elite artists that I would be sure not to miss this evening. Get yo game face on EDM lovers, this is the soundtrack to our lives & it only happens once a year! - on a side note, Axwell better rock the fuck out of his set after canceling on us back in February due to 'snowy' weather. Cheers n' see you out there!
Axwell - I Found You (Joe Ghost Remix)
Deadmau5 - Lost In Space (Feed Me Remix)
Enrique Iglesias ft. Ludacris - Tonight (I'm Lovin You) (Chuckie Remix)
Travis Parker ft. The Game, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross - Can A Drummer Get Some (Diplo Remix)
Get Out
A true electro track by a true electro artist, Lazy Rich with the vocals of Lizzie Curious leading up to the heavy drops oh so perfectly. A sick remix pack along the likes of one of my favorite electro producers Darth & Vader and also throwing in a couple dope mixes by Brazilian mastermind Alex Mind. Happy weekend everybody... where will you be in exactly 1 week?
Are You Ready for the Ruffneck?
As previously posted as part of the More Monsters and Sprites EP, Ruffneck Bass, is a fat dubby, heavy hitting monster that emerged as part of Skrillex's twisted yet magical madness of productions. SoniXx has really made this headbanger a blend of electro beauty. The remix is glorious, churnnnn it up. Cheers
Ryan Riback
The 27 year old Aussie describes his style as "SexyTwistedDirtyElectroTechHouseMusic" and it really can't be described any better. His influx of remixes this year has already been flooding my itunes and seems like every one gets harder and dirtier. This dude is fuckin' awesome, hopefully we'll be seeing him in the States sometime soon.
