Built around Mike’s signature piano-driven melodies and uplifting energy, “Multiply” blends infectious toplines with festival-ready production, uniting three distinct musical worlds into one powerful anthem.

The release marks another milestone for Mike Williams, whose breakthrough came with “Feel Good” alongside Felix Jaehn, followed by global streaming successes including “Lullaby” with R3hab (249M Spotify streams), “Wait Another Day” with Mesto (115M), and “The Beat” (84M).

Known for his recognizable melodic sound and dynamic live presence, Mike has performed at major festivals such as Tomorrowland Belgium, Ultra Miami and Mysteryland, and is set to bring that same high-energy performance to Tomorrowland Winter in France at the end of March.

With “Multiply,” Mike once again highlights the piano as the emotional foundation of his productions — a hallmark of his artistry since he first began playing at the age of four.

At the same time, the collaboration shines a spotlight on Bruno Martini, one of the most innovative talents to emerge from Brazil’s thriving electronic music scene. With more than 2 billion Spotify streams and global hits such as “Hear Me Now” with Alok and Zeeba, Bruno has built an impressive international reputation through collaborations with artists like Timbaland and Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, as well as remixes for Zedd, Alan Walker, Jason Derulo, Lady Gaga, J-Lo and Katy Perry.

A seasoned international touring DJ who has performed at events including EDC Las Vegas, Tomorrowland Belgium and Hï Ibiza, Bruno continues to push his sound forward while also nurturing new talent through his label Beeside.

Combined with Bruno Martini‘s refined production touch and Stephen Puth‘s distinctive vocals, “Multiply” delivers an uplifting message amplified by soaring melodies and euphoric drops. As both artists continue to tour globally and connect with millions of fans, the collaboration highlights the creative synergy between two influential forces in contemporary dance music.

A defining feature of the Gates of Agartha is it’s otherworldly location. Set within a 2,000-year-old limestone quarry that once supplied stone for the Pula Arena Roman amphitheatre, Cave Romane is defined by towering 50-metre rock walls and powerful natural acoustics. Located in the coastal village of Vinkuran near Pula, the site sits within Istria‘s historic landscape, a region often referred to locally as Terra Magica.

Founded by brothers Yalim and Yaaz Acar, creators of the Echoes From Agartha festival in Cappadocia, the project focuses on staging electronic music events in historically significant locations, transforming ancient landscapes into cinematic festival settings.

“Gates of Agartha was never meant to be just another festival,” say the founders. “Our vision has always been to create timeless moments where sound, history and community converge.”

The Croatia edition is proudly held in collaboration with BSH Events, a leading regional electronic music promoter known for high-impact productions across Croatia’s major venues and destinations and a loyal regional audience. Ticket prices range from €70–€180, with Full Experience packages including four nights’ accommodation at Monumenti, breakfast, fast-track entry and access to the opening and afterparties.

With its tightly curated scale, underground-led line-up and international audience, Gates of Agartha continues to position itself as a boutique electronic destination festival in Europe.

Pan-Pot Introduce New Compilation Series ‘PLANET1’

March 9, 2026

Pan-Pot launched a new chapter for their long-standing imprint Second State with the arrival of PLANET1, a various artists transmission.

PLANET1 marks the first sonic broadcast from the Second State mothership in 2026 with four tracks, four precision-engineered weapons, one coordinated disturbance in the known dancefloor continuum. It’s less a VA, more a map to somewhere stranger.

Pan-Pot open the portal with ‘Altered State’, a track designed to scramble the border patrols of consciousness. Built for rooms without clocks and crowds that don’t blink, it doesn’t play fair – it bends reality until it sweats.

Emerging Indian producer Stoked has steadily carved a name through driving, peak-time techno and releases on respected underground imprints. On ‘Splintercell’, he delivers a stealth-tech weapon forged in digital shadow – a precise, high-impact cut that infiltrates, slices through perception, and vanishes before the smoke machine can catch up.

Mexican DJ/producer Redraft Memories is known for atmospheric, emotionally-charged techno that bridges melody with power, earning support across Europe’s underground circuit. Teaming up with Spanto, a rising force in the Italian scene recognized for his energetic, groove-driven selections, ‘Elevate’ arrives like a hypnosis device disguised as a club track.

Berlin-based artist Victoria Engel crafts deeply textured electronic music shaped by cinematic tension and late-night introspection. Her debut on Second State, ‘Unfolded Memory’, feels like a prophecy whispered through a laser grid – dangerous and engineered for bodies in motion.

Composed of Tassilo Ippenberger and Thomas Benedix, Pan-Pot have spent over a decade shaping global techno through Second State, nurturing both established heavyweights and the next wave of uncompromising talent. With PLANET1, they initiate a new compilation series that extends the label’s future-facing vision: raw and unapologetically built for the floor.

With PLANET1, Pan-Pot have entered a new era for Second State, they invite the dancefloor to step into the unknown.

Mar y Cel Reimagine Junior Jack’s Classic “Thrill Me”

March 8, 2026

Barcelona’s Mar and Ibiza-based Cel have teamed up under the name Mar y Cel (Catalan for Sea and Sky) to release their collaboration, Thrill Me. With this project, the two producers focus purely on creating quality house music, allowing the sound and energy of the track to speak for itself.

The duo first met several years ago at the Mar y Cel Café in Figueretas, Ibiza. The café perfectly captures the relaxed rhythm of life on the White Island outside the busy summer season — sunny afternoons where musicians slow things down, enjoy a cold caña, watch the world pass by along the promenade, and talk about the music they love.

Both artists already have strong reputations in the electronic music scene. Their solo releases ranging from chart-topping tracks to underground favorites have appeared on respected labels including Universal Music, Sirup Music, New State Music, Slackers 85, Pets Recordings, Moody Recordings, and Pacha Recordings.

Their work has also gained support from some of the biggest names in the industry, including Pete Tong, Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones, Catz ‘n Dogz, Annie Mac, Fatboy Slim, Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Roger Sanchez, and Danny Howard.

Mar y Cel Thrill Me — Mar y Cel – Thrill Me

The inspiration for their latest work came during one of those relaxed spring afternoons in Ibiza. While talking about house music classics, the two producers found themselves discussing Junior Jack and his iconic 2002 track Thrill Me. At one point, Cel asked a simple question: “If you remixed Thrill Me, how would you go about it, Mar?”

That question was enough to spark the idea. After paying the bill, the pair headed straight to the studio to experiment with their own take on the classic. The track was passed back and forth between Mar and Cel, slowly refined and developed until the final version felt just right.

Their reinterpretation builds around a big, bouncy kick drum pushing the groove at 121 BPM, combined with sharp hi-hats that keep the rhythm driving forward. Subtle synth layers gradually build tension without changing the tempo, setting the mood before the track fully opens up. Just over a minute in, the energy rises as the famous chorus-car-alarm synth bursts into the mix alongside the unmistakably seductive vocals.

Reworking such a legendary house track is never easy, but Mar y Cel manage to bring a fresh perspective while respecting the spirit of the original. And for fans of Thrill Me, there’s more on the way — with a remix from L.A. Dysto set to arrive on April 3rd.

Solomun returns to his Diynamic Music imprint with ‘Kinesphere,’ an invigorating release featuring Coco Nancy that sets the sonic agenda for the year to come. The single continue’s Solomun’s ongoing momentum, building on ‘Say Nothing’, his end-of-year collab with Denis Sulta.

Kinesphere‘ thrives on simplicity, making the track both powerful and versatile. Coco Nany‘s vocals float over a warm bassline, anchoring the arrangement with a confidence shaped by years on the world’s top dancefloors. The release is warm yet precise, working equally well as a poignant closer or a DJ tool to drive the party deeper. It also showcases Solomun‘s range, from melodic, vocal-driven moments to the deep and techy sounds that define his catalogue.

The single follows Solomun‘s February 6 and 7 shows at London‘s Alexandra Palace, marking another milestone in what is shaping up to be a standout year. The sold-out double-header at the historic Great Hall reflects a path that has defined his recent work as a marquee performer.

With a series of headline shows already lined up – including May 23–24 at Hunts Point in New York, May 30 at Königsplatz in Munich, and June 13 at Hippodrome Paris-Vincennes – Solomun continues to build on that momentum.

Solomun Kinesphere — Solomun – Kinesphere

He recently announced the return of Solomun +1 at Pacha Ibiza, kicking off on May 31 and continuing for nineteen consecutive Sundays. His new single, Kinesphere, on Diynamic Music, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, further reinforces his strong trajectory.

March 7, 2026

Ophelia Records founder and melodic bass visionary Seven Lions returns with his next single, “Hurricane”, a euphoric trance-infused collaboration alongside Andrew Bayer and OAKS. The track acts as a bridge between his 2025 album Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars and its upcoming companion EP, serving as the first single from this expanded chapter of the album’s story.

With “Hurricane“, Seven Lions continues the immersive, emotionally charged world-building that defined Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars – an album hailed as Album of the Year by Dancing Astronaut. Where the LP reconnected him to the inspirations that shaped his earliest sound, “Hurricane” feels like a natural progression of that journey.

Sweeping trance melodies, radiant builds, and OAKS‘ soaring vocal performance converge over intricate production, delivering a euphoric yet cathartic anthem that expands on the album’s celestial atmosphere. Existing within the same mythos, “Hurricane” deepens the narrative and aesthetic Seven Lions has so carefully constructed.

“Hurricane” marks the third collaboration between Seven Lions and Andrew Bayer, following their celebrated singles “Places I Belong” and “Returning To You“, and the second pairing between Seven Lions and OAKS after the emotionally resonant “Past You“.

Across each project, the artists have refined a shared sonic language that bridges trance, melodic bass, and cinematic songwriting – each collaboration building on the last while revealing new dimensions of their collective artistry.

Seven Lions Hurricane — Seven Lions – Hurricane

The single arrives as Seven Lions prepares to embark on an album tour kicking off in April. The run will see him headline some of the country’s most iconic venues, including Red Rocks Amphitheatre, Brooklyn Storehouse, and Bill Graham Civic Auditorium. Known for his immersive production and emotionally charged live performances, the upcoming shows promise to bring the world of Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars – and now “Hurricane” – to life on an even grander scale.

From his 2012 Beatport remix contest win for Above & Beyond to building Ophelia Records into a defining force in melodic bass, Seven Lions has amassed over a billion streams and cultivated one of the most dedicated fanbases in electronic music. With Asleep in the Garden of Infernal Stars, he honored the essence of what first inspired him to create; with “Hurricane,” he expands that vision outward, bridging past and future in a surge of euphoric momentum.

The Best Dispensaries in Chicago to Visit After Lollapalooza Festival

By

March 6, 2026

Every summer, thousands of electronic music fans flood Chicago for Lollapalooza. After four days in Grant Park dancing under open skies to house, techno, EDM, hip-hop, and indie headliners, the city feels electric long after the final encore.

When the stages shut down and the crowds spill into the Loop, River North, and beyond, the vibe doesn’t just disappear. Some people head to afterparties. Others look for food. And plenty of festivalgoers start searching for the best dispensaries in and around Chicago to keep their weekend going.

If you’re visiting for Lollapalooza or you’re a local riding the post-festival high, choosing the right dispensary matters. After hours on your feet and sets that ran from mid-afternoon to midnight, you want a smooth, welcoming experience. You want clarity. You want quality. You don’t want to stand in a chaotic store trying to decode a cluttered menu while your phone battery hangs on at 9 percent.

To help you navigate Chicago’s cannabis scene after Lolla, we looked at product selection, menu depth, online ordering functionality, brand curation, and overall customer experience. Here are five Chicago dispensaries worth knowing about after Lollapalooza, with Karma Club leading the list.

1. Karma Club

If you’re leaving Grant Park still replaying your favorite DJ set in your head and looking to keep the mood right, Karma Club sets the standard.

From the moment you browse the menu, it’s clear this isn’t a rushed, high-volume tourist trap. The lineup spans flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, concentrates, tinctures, and topicals. More importantly, it feels curated. You’ll see respected Illinois brands alongside popular staples, giving you flexibility whether you want a heavy indica to unwind after back-to-back sets or an uplifting sativa to carry you into an afterparty.

The online ordering system is especially useful during festival weekend. You can filter by category, potency, or brand without digging through clutter. If you already know what you’re looking for, you can order ahead and minimize wait time. That’s a major advantage when the city is packed with out-of-towners.

In-store, the experience feels personal rather than transactional. Budtenders take the time to understand what you’re after. Maybe your legs are shot from dancing all day and you want something relaxing. Maybe you’re hosting friends at your Airbnb and need a balanced edible that won’t knock everyone out. The guidance feels informed and pressure-free.

Product variety is another strength. High-THC flower, balanced hybrids, micro-dosed edibles for social settings, and concentrates for experienced consumers are all represented. After a sensory-heavy weekend like Lollapalooza, that kind of range lets you tailor the vibe exactly how you want it.

If you’re searching for the best dispensary in Chicago to visit after Lollapalooza, Karma Club delivers the most complete experience.

2. Sunnyside Cannabis Dispensary

Sunnyside Cannabis Dispensary is one of the most recognizable names in Illinois cannabis. With multiple locations and a broad footprint, it offers accessibility and consistency, which can be appealing when you’re navigating a busy festival weekend.

The menu typically includes a large range of flower, vape cartridges, edibles, and concentrates. You’ll often see established Illinois brands alongside house lines, giving shoppers a mix of premium and value-driven choices. If you’re comparing options for a mellow night in versus a more energizing social high, that breadth can help.

Online ordering is straightforward, and the interface allows you to sort by category and brand. During high-traffic weekends like Lollapalooza, the ability to browse efficiently and place a pickup order can save time.

In-store experiences vary slightly by location, but the overall structure is organized and efficient. If you’re looking for a well-known dispensary with scale and steady inventory, Sunnyside remains a strong option.

3. Rise Dispensaries

Rise Dispensaries operates multiple locations across Illinois and pairs retail with cultivation. That vertical integration often translates into strong in-house product representation and consistent supply.

The menu typically includes flower, pre-rolls, vapes, and edibles across a range of potency levels. If you’ve just spent the weekend bouncing between stages and want something predictable and familiar, Rise’s brand cohesion can be appealing.

Their online platform supports filtering and pre-ordering, which is helpful when the city is buzzing with festival traffic. Planning ahead means you can pick up quickly and get back to relaxing, whether that’s at a hotel downtown or a friend’s place in another neighborhood.

For festivalgoers who value consistency and recognizable product lines, Rise offers a reliable stop.

4. Verilife

Verilife has built a presence in Chicago by emphasizing access and education. The menu usually includes a wide selection of flower, concentrates, edibles, and vape products.

One advantage is visibility across potency tiers. If you’re deciding between a high-THC strain to fully unwind after Lolla or something more moderate for a low-key hang, you can compare options side by side.

The retail layout is typically structured for straightforward navigation. Staff interactions tend to be efficient, which can be a plus if you want to get in and out without sacrificing product clarity.

For visitors who prefer a clean, predictable shopping environment, Verilife provides a dependable experience.

5. Columbia Care

Columbia Care operates within Illinois’ regulated market and offers a balanced mix of house and third-party brands. The menu covers flower, pre-rolls, edibles, concentrates, and accessories.

Product descriptions generally include key details such as potency and strain type, which is helpful if you’re still learning what works best for you. The online ordering system allows for filtering and pickup scheduling, making it easier to navigate a crowded city weekend.

While it may not have the boutique feel of smaller dispensaries, Columbia Care maintains a solid foundation in selection and operational efficiency.

What Makes a Great Post-Festival Dispensary Experience

After a massive music festival like Lollapalooza, your priorities shift. You’re not just shopping for cannabis. You’re looking to shape the next phase of your weekend.

Curation matters. A menu should feel intentional rather than overwhelming. After days of nonstop stimulation, clarity is a relief.

Customer experience matters even more. Staff who can quickly help you identify the right product based on how you’re feeling create confidence. Maybe you need something calming for sore muscles. Maybe you want an edible that pairs well with a rooftop hang while you recap your favorite sets.

Transparency is the final piece. Clear THC percentages, straightforward descriptions, and intuitive online ordering reduce friction. When information is easy to understand, you can make a decision quickly and get back to enjoying the city.

Why Karma Club Leads After Lollapalooza

Among Chicago dispensaries, Karma Club stands out because it combines curation, customer focus, and clarity in a way that feels natural.

The product lineup feels thoughtfully assembled rather than overcrowded. You’ll find premium flower, strong edible options, diverse vape cartridges, and high-quality concentrates. Categories are organized to support both new consumers and seasoned festival veterans who know exactly what they want.

Service is where the difference becomes obvious. Interactions feel conversational and informed. You don’t feel rushed, even during busy weekends. That balance is especially valuable after an event as intense and high-energy as Lollapalooza.

When the music fades and the stages come down, the weekend isn’t necessarily over. Whether you’re decompressing, celebrating, or extending the vibe into one more night, choosing the right dispensary shapes that experience.

Sunnyside, Rise, Verilife, and Columbia Care all offer solid options in Chicago. But if you’re searching for the best dispensary in Chicago to visit after Lollapalooza, Karma Club delivers the most balanced combination of curated selection, approachable service, and seamless ordering. And after a festival built on sound, energy, and atmosphere, that thoughtful experience makes all the difference.

ANNA and Antdot deliver their highly-anticipated track ‘Astralis’

ANNA and Antdot deliver their highly-anticipated single ‘Astralis’, hosted by Dawn Patrol Records and featuring handpan artist Ravid. The single marks the meeting of two Brazilian frontrunners through a moment of artistic connection that transcends the studio and comes to life on the dancefloor.

Balancing power with restraint, the track’s use of hypnotic plucks, pulsating drums, and subtle piano accents propels the listener into a weightless, otherworldly space, where two sonic worlds combine. ANNA’s refined, floating atmospheres are interwoven with Antdot’s sun-soaked, organic percussion, resulting in a melodic house and techno production that feels seamlessly harmonious yet boldly experimental.

‘Astralis’ was born from a behind-the-scenes synergy that later matured onstage. The first invitation to play together came at Tomorrowland 2025, when Antdot and ANNA were booked for a B2B set at the Crystal Garden stage.

ANNA Antdot Astralis — ANNA Antdot – Astralis

“When we were invited to play a B2B at Tomorrowland, we wanted to create a track together to make it even more special, to play something in the B2B that we had created ourselves,” ANNA explains.

From that shared intention, the collaboration took shape organically.

“As we got to know each other better, it felt natural to work on a track together, and ‘Astralis’ is about that. It’s about this connection,” Antdot adds.

For ANNA, the collaboration was also personal. “We met backstage and had a really strong connection. I felt he was like a brother, and we even took photos. I said, ‘Let’s collaborate one day, so let’s take pictures now, that way, when it happens, we’ll already have them’,” she recalls.

That affinity translates into a track that balances intensity and transcendence, combining groove, immersive textures and an atmosphere that invites sensory expansion.
