In talent buying and show booking, there’s always been an unspoken give and take between artist and promoter. Guarantees, cancellation fees, and standard expectations have been a norm for decades — but we’re nowhere near a norm right now due to COVID-19. As shows begin to come back next year, Live Nation, one of the

The revolution will be … mashed up? Two of the most political and social-minded acts in music — Rage Against the Machine and Run the Jewels — were set to tour together this year, but fans can still get their fix on a new mashup mixtape put together by DJ Skarface. For those who’ve followed

Deadmau5 mixes are a dime a dozen, but that doesn’t mean we appreciate them any less. On the 90th episode of Mau5trap radio, the label boss himself takes duties into his own hands, whereas it’s often a guest DJ that plays, like Speaker Honey, Jay Robinson, Sian, or more.

Bassnectar and Jantsen, Lido and Jaden Smith, Flux Pavilion and Doctor P… there are a lot of classic combos in music that, whenever they work together, we know it’s going to be exceptional.

2020 has thrown a wrench into a lot of plans, but Black Veil Brides are making good on a promise first discussed last year by announcing the release of their re-recorded debut album, now titled Re-Stitch These Wounds, for its 10th anniversary. The band currently has a countdown clock on a special site to promote

Despite major 2020 cancellations, Eric Prydz is moving forward with his signature HOLOSPHERE experience — but you’ll have to wait until next year to see it live. The post below simply reads “2021…” and tags official accounts of both Tomorrowland and Creamfields, where Prydz is set to bring back his HOLOSPHERE experience. Matched with music and incredible visuals,

Motorhead icon Lemmy Kilmister previously graced the big screen in the 2010 documentary Lemmy, but the director behind that film is set to oversee a new biopic based on the singer’s life. So who should play Lemmy? The film will follow Lemmy’s life from growing up in Stoke on Trent to becoming a roadie for Jimi

This past weekend, Proximity and Brownies & Lemonade put on the second edition of their Digital Mirage Online Music Festival with 58 artists from around the world.
