ARTY

ARTY is an artist capable of shattering expectations, and he does so yet again with his latest offering on Armada Music. A quintessential ARTY single that sparkles with catchiness and crossover potential, ‘Who Do You Love’ ties the outstanding production aesthetic of the Russian electronic music phenomenon with the gold-rimmed vocals of American singer-songwriter Rozzi, who worked and toured with three-time Grammy Award-winning band Maroon 5.

Detailing a crossroads of love and desire, ARTY‘s brand-new release on Armada Music hits the sweet spot between club suitability and pop appeal with pinpoint precision.

Emotionally carried by the uplifting piano chords, the powerful beat drops and Rozzi‘s irresistible vocal presence, ‘Who Do You Love‘ instantly lights a fire in listeners’ hearts.

“Back in early 2020, Michael Jade, Rozzi, and I got together with one goal – to write the follow-up to ‘Save Me Tonight‘, ARTY says.

“Even after I produced ten completely different and fully “done” demos, I still wasn’t satisfied with the chords. When I started playing shows again after COVID, it gave me so much inspiration. That’s when I came up with the final chords. The outcome was incredible. It felt so special the first time I played it in my live set. I hope everybody will feel the same way.”

Eelke Kleijn

Mere days after the release of his five-plus-hour music production masterclass on Armada University, Eelke Kleijn is launching his first single of 2022 and subsequently giving his fans yet another reason to roar.

Written on a flight from Amsterdam to New York during his first U.S. tour of 2021, ‘Transmission‘ immediately proves to be the kind track that shifts the underground club experience to a higher gear.

Having already received the stamp of approval from fellow tastemakers such as Above & Beyond, Adriatique, Agents Of Time, Green Velvet, Kevin de Vries and WhoMadeWho, ‘Transmission‘ was released on Eelke Kleijn‘s own DAYS like NIGHTS label under the Armada Music umbrella.

Helmed by a driving bassline, glowing pads and hypnotic pluck patterns, this high-energy production is designed to send the senses into overdrive and give any club crowd the thrill of a lifetime.

Three albums into a well-established yet still rapidly ascending career, Eelke Kleijn is an artist very much in his element. In the grand scheme of things, he’s an underground artist, but one who has effortlessly made the jump into the wider world when the time and opportunity have felt right.

His remixes for the likes of John Legend, Pendulum and James Newton Howard & Jennifer Lawrence are testament to his ability to reach wider audiences without giving up on his core value, whilst his work scoring Hollywood blockbusters like Batman vs Superman, Rush, Parker and This Means War has been met with great acclaim.

Check out the full interview below!

What do you feel is the best song you’ve released and why?

I would have to say Worlds Collide is the best song I have released. I feel like so many people can relate to this song if they listen to the lyrics. It hits close to home for a lot of people.

Any plans for touring this year?

Yes I plan on touring in the summer. I will be touring here in the states as well as other countries. I will be announcing the dates soon.

Do you think you could get any better as a musician? And if so, how would you achieve that?

Spiderhound Showcases Stunning Development In Experimental Bass Single ‘Can You Hear Me?’

By
Alex Gelevski
-

Spiderhound is back at it again with one of his most riveting releases to date. “Can You Hear Me?” follows in the footsteps on previously successful singles like “I See Red,” and “So Good.”

Showcasing that trippy, multi-faceted electronic feel that no one else touches in terms of surprising originality, “Can You Hear Me?” boasts much to offer. With well-pronounced, ever so slightly hip-hop-influenced percussion, Spiderhound lays the groundwork for smooth wubs and juicy basslines to do their work.

A few bars later, a comforting masculine vocal reveals and adds to the concoction, giving a more connective element to an already introspective experience. Emotional and groovy all in the same go, Spiderhound continues to make incremental developments just as much on the production side as he does with live events, marketing, networking, and the like.

After releasing the singles, “Phlame,” “Strangers,” “Forgive,” and “I See Red,” in 2021, Spiderhound has experienced a dramatic shift in attention coming his way. Only between the 4 songs, he’s been able to achieve well over 200,000 streams, starting in July of last year. On top of this, Dancing Astronaut, YourEDM, EDMTunes, and dozens of other outlets have given him high praise for his bass sound that’s easily described as being in its own lane.

Spiderhound fits within the realm of experimental bass, but stands out with distinctive production elements that can be easily recognized as his signature sound.

Spiderhound has reached the #1 one spot on various Beatport ‘new releases’ charts including glitch-hop, downtempo, bass/club, and trap/wave, the vast life he’s had in music playing an innate role in his ability to lay down bars in the studio which are exactly what his mind has imagined.

Asher Shashaty & whoskevin? Team Up On Emotional Future Bass Release Titled ‘The Void’

By
Andry Bosk
-

Electronic music producer Asher Shashaty and versatile vocalist whoskevin? have taken the best of both their styles and maximized the potential of it in “The Void.”

Asher Shashaty tackles the production lexicon with a clever approach and grace – a live drum feel on the percussion lays down a solid foundation, thick sidechains drive a quaint future bass feel, and dirty synths help inject a level of darkness where it fits, but also a sense of hopeful emotion in the chorus.

whoskevin? brings a distinctive timbre on the vocal front, articulating an emo / punk disposition with heavy vocal effects embedded. The combination of sounds and styles gives a sensation of a futuristic, dystopian world that’s gritty and barren – yet unshakable stoicism and power is delivered as a vibe of confidence is felt between design of the melodics and the topline within.

Asher Shashaty and whoskevin? take full advantage of the creative chemistry that flows between them, the two working well together which is showcased in a balanced fashion via “The Void.”

VISIV announces first NFT offerings as part of immersive Techno event

By
Alex Gelevski

Ground-breaking new techno and technology concept VISIV is launching with their long-awaited The Future Is Now event taking place on March 19th at Paris La Défense Arena. The real-world event with a world-class line-up of talent, will also be accessible in the metaverse and will welcome visitors from the renowned Texas conference SXSW to join via a portal.

The concept will also feature exclusive NFT offerings and unlimited future metaverse access, unlocking new revenue streams for DJs. Three different NFT types will be curated for the first show headlined by techno innovators Ben Klock, Marcel Dettmann, Blawan, Helena Hauff, DVS1, Rodhad, Dasha Rush and Bambounou.

The first NFTs will be realistic 3D models representing every artist on the line-up. Only one unique NFT per artist will be created and sold to people in a fractionalized way meaning that one artist can be collectively “owned” by many different people. To support artists in these difficult COVID times, the NFTs offer an additional revenue stream for artists.

The second type of NFT will be based around the brand’s own visual identity and will take the form of The 7 VISIV Deadly Skulls. Each has its own shape and narrative and once purchased will be able to unlock possibilities like avatar use and skinnable items in the metaverse. There will be plenty of other surprises with each NFT, and exciting collectible opportunities including one extremely rare Carbon Skull.

The third NFT is one that represents the whole VISIV event as an experience transformed into digital art. Fractional owners of this NFT will be granted unlimited access to relive the experience over and over in the metaverse, and a percentage of the sales will form another revenue stream for DJs.

“We are building in a way that will be useful for any future VISIV events and other events by providing building blocks for the entire industry. They can then be re used to recreate the same high-end experience, bringing enthusiasts closer together globally in unique ways coupled with completely new opportunities for artists, event organizers and crowds.” says founder Axel Picodot.

VISIV was born from a love of techno, technology, and a desire to bridge both worlds and take them into the future. Collaborating with SXSW for the much anticipated first event gives the Texas conference’s virtual reality audience the opportunity to visit the VISIV festival in the metaverse, while real life attendees will dance together in Paris. VISIV: The Future Is Now is taking traditional real – world events and pairing up with advanced technologies to take make for an all-new and thrilling metaverse experience.
