written by Nate Manuel Zeds Dead’s “Lost You” has been my go to pick-me-up for a solid year.

The duo’s […]
written by Alyssa DiCaterino The MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheater in Tampa is like home to me. It’s where I attended my first music festival ever (RIP Big Guava, it was a good two years), and where I once found myself so completely in love with a full day’s roster of artists that I went 12 […]

As the days and hours to the next burn creep by, you may wonder when you’ll feel as alive as you did watching “Daft Punk” play […]
written by Ariana Assaf Hot off a Chainsmokers remix, up-and-comer Slushii is keeping the good times and good music coming. Out today, “To Say Goodbye” is further proof that our boy has an arsenal of stylistic experimentation up his sleeve, and knows how to use it. Quirky robotic vocals go great with the track’s big […]

SnowGlobe just announced it’s phase one lineup with headlining acts including The Chainsmokers, Odesza, and Big Gigantic, and my day just got infinitely better. Let me break it down for you: The Chainsmokers are […]
written by Ariana Assaf Anybody with any knowledge of the Dirtybird crew has probably realized that they’re a bunch of awesome weirdos. We love festivals because of how free and playful they make us feel, and Claude VonStroke’s Dirtybird Campout in Silverado, CA is no exception. In fact, it just may be the most playful […]
