Although we can’t get Swedish House Mafia in it’s entirety, atleast we have Sebastian Ingrosso and Axwell putting out new tracks like “Can’t Hold Us Down” and a whole new Axwell / Ingrosso journey to look forward to.
The former members of the band that sold over 10 million records worldwide before even putting out a full album and who sold out Madison Square Garden in New York in less than 9 minutes are out and ready to hit the world hard again. “It’s a whole new era for these two” according to Zane Lowe who listed it as the hottest record in the world and premiered the song on his radio show Wednesday.
Listen to “Can’t Hold Us Down” (Out Soon!!)
Also out this week is “Badman" Autoerotique’s NEW track with Dim Mak Records young and newest, Max Styler.
Dillion Francis opens his sets with it. Steve Aoki plays it every show. The Chainsmokers, TJR and Diplo cant get enough. “Badman” is the smashing collaboration from label mainstay Autoerotique and Dim Mak newcomer Max Styler, who together create a whirlwind of tribal synth stabs that bash through a rhythmic wasteland of assaulting electro beats. Brassy vocal chops command listeners to “get down low” while fierce drum breaks erupt in a frenzy amidst reverberating bass kicks.
The electronic mastermind Autoerotique strongly followed up Beatport #1 “Asphyxiation” with a flurry of collaborations such as "Murda Dem” with Mercer, "Go" with Marc Noir & Out Of Sync and “Feedback” with Steve Aoki vs. Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike which reached #3 Beatport Main Chart.
Producing within his own unique genre dubbed “Lazer Funk,” the unpredictable Canadian consistently pushes boundaries and breaks the mold with his wide range of production capabilities. Having reupholstered the works of superstars including Skrillex and Diplo, Autoerotique has garnered worldwide support which promises to only grow from here.

Taylor Swift came out with her new album “1989” 2 weeks ago, but Kill Frenzy’s "Taylr Swft" is a little different from the country pop star’s style.
Famed for his ability to carve carnal drama from one smouldering 808 sermon and a sleazy panty-dropping vocal loop, in his new album “Taylr Swft” we find Sebastien Vanschoonbeek developing his uncompromising, ghetto-bound repertoire with serious maturity, depth and class. Building on his well-established bass-laced bedrock, each of these cuts flex with dynamics that will find favour with all house and techno connoisseurs and do so with complete consistency as a whole body of work… hell, they work so well dirtybird bossman VonStroke is almost reluctant to release them.
"Taylr Swft" has already come along way and has grown quite a bit of anticipation. However according to Claude VonStroke, "I’m almost sad to start sharing the new Kill Frenzy album with everyone else because it has been my secret weapon all summer. At one point I was playing seven tracks from the album in the same set, it was almost embarrassing. I’m very fickle about choosing what I play and this album is amazing.“

In the van I found “Outside,” Harris’ second collaboration with Ellie Goulding is my favorite:

Dirty South’s new album ”With You“ is OUT NOW!! ”With You“s concept reached out to so many, it became a movie that’s #1 in 17 countries!! See the touching preview/ Official Music Video to ”With You“ here:
The ”With You“ album also comes with hit songs "Run, Run, Run,” “Unbreakable” and “Freefallin,’” but “With You” has got to be my favorite song at the moment, and the entire album has a unique sound that can put you in a perfect trance this fall with its deep lyrics and alternative twist to the others in the electronic dance genre.
Listen to Dirty South’s full album available on SoundCloud here and available for purchase on iTunes here!! You can also check out the “With You” movie directed by Dirty South himself here on iTunes.
