Marking their first-ever studio collaboration, Ejeca and Danny Howard come together on ‘Dreams’, a deep and transportive cut released via Factory 93.
Rooted in the sounds of classic 90s house, yet firmly placed within today’s underground, it’s a masterclass in restraint and tone-setting, built on subtle percussion, lush textures, and hypnotic vocal cadences.
Offering raw, emotive energy, ‘Dreams’ delivers a warm, organic groove that speaks to both artists’ shared passion for foundational club music.
“Danny came over to my studio at the start of the summer, and we tried to focus on pure house music. ‘Dreams’ is deep and organic, a bit like how house music was made in the ’90s.
It’s a track for proper house DJs that want a track they can build a set with and set a tone. It’s a sound we both want to try and champion over the next year, so keep your ears peeled.” – Ejeca.

Amid a landmark year, renowned DJ, producer and New York City-native Layton Giordani announced the launch of his label MADMINDS, in partnership with Armada Music. The sonic ethos of MADMINDS is a genre-melding journey, delivering an otherworldly experience that flows seamlessly from music selection and release artwork to live production. The label’s first single is set for release in early September.
Just as the name suggests, Giordani envisions the label as a home for brilliantly unconventional minds, the kind that are wild, exciting, and unapologetically original. That spirit is at the heart of the label: a place for bold ideas, fearless creativity, and people who embrace out-of-the-box thinking in all the best ways.
Giordani is dedicated to supporting up-and-coming artists and releasing music that blurs genre lines, focusing on a distinct vibe that will be instantly recognizable as a MADMINDS release.
Launching the label in New York City was a deliberate choice for Giordani, whose sound was deeply shaped by the city’s scene.
“New York City is where I first discovered house and techno at 16 years old,” says Layton Giordani. “I was entrenched in the culture very early on in my career and had the honor of watching the genre’s pioneers shape the music we now love. My first residencies were here, from Pacha NYC to Output Brooklyn, and the city undoubtedly influenced me in every way.”
Fans can expect MADMINDS to deliver an immersive, multi-sensory experience that extends far beyond the music, weaving through striking visuals, live production and more. Each release will feature bold, visual-first artwork, inviting listeners to enter a unique world crafted by each track and letting the sound speak entirely for itself.
Designed to challenge the brain, the label’s creative output will ignite curiosity at every turn, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the imaginative realm that MADMINDS brings to life.
“Teaming up with Armada Music to create MADMINDS at this moment felt very natural and in sync with where I’m at in my career. It feels like the right time to give back and share my story with the world, with a renewed vision and collaborative focus,” adds Giordani. “It’s time to shake things up for electronic music, rising from the very place that raised me.”
Long Feng unveils the full lineup for its highly-anticipated return to the Burning Man playa. A breathing paradox of myth and machine, this innovative art car bends and unfurls with the grace of the contortionists who inspired its form, hosting a world-class roster of electronic music talent amidst the dust.
Born from a love story on the playa, Long Feng was created by two veteran burners whose sacred union inspired a project dedicated to beauty, unity, and community. The art car serves as a cultural bridge between East and West, guided by the ethos “Let Beauty Lead” and the belief that shared stories can spark connection, creativity, and collective growth.
Built by performers, for performers, Long Feng is not only the largest art car on the playa, but the first performing art car with a structure that mirrors the fluidity and adaptability of a contortionist’s body —molding itself to the unique energy and style of each performance.
In the words of Long Feng’s creative director Mark Alan Diaz, “We built Long Feng with the precision of a tailor — every cut intentional, and every detail curated.”
Long Feng Burning Man 2025 Lineup
Long Feng is a moving fusion of ancient symbolism and future vision—its form inspired by the dragon and phoenix as emblems of beauty, truth, and sacred union; the egg (pearl) as a sign of cultural rebirth; and the Five Elements it’s made out of (Fire, Earth, Metal, Water, and Wood) as the foundations of all creation. This eastern base meets distinctly Western influences in its music, performance, and lineup, creating a stage where tradition and innovation collide
At the forefront of a new era in art cars, Long Feng integrates emerging AI, robotics, and interactive technology to deliver sensory experiences beyond anything seen on playa. Conceived as a mechanical being destined for its own personality and intelligence, it points toward a future where humans and machines celebrate in harmony—ushering in the next chapter of global performance culture.
From sunrise odysseys to peak-night journeys, Long Feng will be soundtracked by the likes of Crosstown Rebels wizard Damian Lazarus, Brazilian chart-topper Vintage Culture, the only playa b2b between Maccabi House co-founders Adam Ten b2b Mita Gami (Extended Set), and Latin house heavyweight Gordo.
The billing continues with Afro-house pioneer Francis Mercier b2b Turkish deep house star Mahmut Orhan, Australian house favorite Kaz James’s only art car set of the whole Burn, Chicago house tastemaker Lee Foss, and Brazilian rising star MAZ.
Melodic techno craftsman Colyn, Norwegian duo Kream, Los Angeles-based Kimonos, and Spanish deep house maestro Arodes b2b Afrohouse star AMÉMÉ round out the sonic highlights.
From selecting the very best DJ artists to enlisting the industry-leading designers at Sound Investment Audio (SIA), every facet of the system has been thoroughly considered to achieve an experience in the aural realm that is like no other, including components from Funktion-One, NST Audio and Full Fat Audio.
In the words of Todd Konecny, Partner at Sound Investment Audio, “It is rare that, as designers, we are given the opportunity to design the ultimate system for a once-in-a-generation art and music fusion creation.”
Thursday night unveils the 1st Annual Dragon Awakening Tie-Up, a landmark convergence of Burning Man’s most iconic dragon art cars. Long Feng, Abraxas, Elektra, Heavy Meta, Torch the Dragon, Xuza, and more will join forces in the largest tie-up gathering the playa has ever seen.
Together, they will transform the desert night into a monumental showcase of scale, light, and creativity. Long Feng will also tie up with Bipolar Express, Titanics End at PlayAlchemist, and Maxa Camp while on the playa.
Burning Man 2025 will see Long Feng return to the playa in full force, unveiling new performances, expanded production, and immersive, tech-driven storytelling. With its seamless blend of world-class music, cutting-edge design, worlds best dancers/circus artists, and boundary-pushing sensory experiences, Long Feng stands as a beacon of the next generation of art cars—where creativity, community, and innovation converge to create moments that resonate far beyond the dust.
Italian duo DJs From Mars have made a slice of their own dance music history collaborating with the former 4 x World No.1 DJ David Guetta and the legendary British electronic outfit Audio Bullys.
After years of working together behind the scenes, DJs From Mars have now officially teamed up with global superstar David Guetta for a brand-new track.
Titled ‘Things I Haven’t Told You’, the song is an explosive rework of Audio Bullys’ classic ‘We Don’t Care’, which originally peaked at #15 on the UK charts in 2003.
DJs From Mars David Guetta & Audio Bullys – Things I Haven’t Told You
The idea was born directly from David Guetta, who invited DJs From Mars, renowned for their mash-up prowess, to reinvent the track with a modern, festival-ready UK garage twist.
The very first demo hit the mark immediately: tested in both artists’ live sets, it received overwhelming crowd reactions, quickly becoming one of Guetta’s most powerful “secret weapons” this summer. Now officially signed to Spinnin’ Records, the track gets its official release this August.
“Working with David on this project is a dream come true. After so many years of backstage collaborations, seeing our name alongside his on an official release fills us with pride. We poured all our energy into this track, and it’s been incredible to watch it come alive on the world’s biggest festival stages,” say DJs From Mars with enthusiasm.
The result is a high-octane crossover of UK garage, house, electro-punk, and mainstage energy; a track built to get everyone moving, from long-time Audio Bullys’ fans to David Guetta’s millions of global followers.

Italian producer, DJ, tastemaker, and industry Renaissance man DJ Tennis expands the universe of his recent single “Playa Paradiso” featuring vocals by chart-topping British artist Eliza Rose with a new Club Mix.
The new version retools “Playa Paradiso” into a darker, longer-burning version, stripping back the sun-kissed gloss of the original, elongating the groove, making way for the thumping, carnal low-end. With Rose‘s vocal weaving in and out like a guiding light through the haze, it’s a hypnotic take that trades coastal charm for heady club elevation.
Both versions capture different corners of the same world. The original basks in the Balearic sun, and the Club Mix pulsing in the strobe. Together, they mark a full-circle return for DJ Tennis‘s first solo material in three years as an artist whose sonic world has always defied simple categorization.
With a new distribution deal inked with Above Board for LifeandDeath and a vault of unreleased music, DJ Tennis is stepping further into the spotlight as a producer.
After years of shaping artists and scenes from behind the curtain – the punk tour manager-turned-underground figurehead is trained as a sound engineer, hosts a culinary show (Munchietown), has owned his own restaurant, and even collaborated with Teile Elektronik on a surreal multi-effects music bot – he’s now channeling his singular creative perspective into his most intentional music yet.
Eliza Rose is the voice of dance music’s modern hits, with recent collaborations with superstars Calvin Harris and The Martinez Brothers. Straddling the underground and pop with style and bite, she has delivered vinyl-only sets blending House and UKG, while also becoming the first female DJ to chart at #1 in the UK in 20 years.
With “Playa Paradiso,” she continues her run as one of club music’s most magnetic vocalists – playful, soulful, and ready to catch your eye on a sweltering dance floor.
