At just 23 years old, New Zealand drum & bass star Rova is continuing his rapid ascent with the release of Undisputed, a six-track EP that showcases the next chapter of his evolution as a producer. Built around a boxing-inspired concept, the new project positions each track as a different round in the fight, highlighting Rova’s versatility while staying firmly rooted in his signature high-energy drum & bass sound. The project includes previously released singles “OCTANE,” “SEE U WORK,” and his collaboration with A Little Sound, “LOW DOWN,” alongside three new tracks that push his sound in fresh directions. The release arrives amid a breakout run for the young producer – Rova has earned support from BBC Radio 1’s Charlie Tee and Jack...

Paris-based DJ and producer Silckyboy is continuing to carve out his own lane with the release of “Bring It Back,” a bass-driven club record that pulls from UK garage, UK bassline, house, and hip-hop influences. Built around a powerful reese bassline and punchy rap vocals, the track showcases the genre-blending approach that has become central to the artist’s sound. Miami-based rapper Stige adds another layer to the record, bringing a unique perspective shaped by his Jamaican roots and helping give the track its distinctive energy. All of this comes together to create an intoxicating dance record built for both late-night club sets and summer playlists. Hear what we mean by streaming the record via Spotify below and be sure to turn your...

Following the launch of her 4ever Music imprint with “BADBOYS,” Toronto-based DJ/producer Zorza returns with “ONEBODY,” a collaboration with Belgian duo Promis3 out now via 4ever Music / Universal Music Group Canada. Where the label’s debut leaned into raw, high-impact energy, “ONEBODY” turns more introspective, pairing driving hard-dance production with layered melodies and stacked vocals. The result is a track that balances festival-ready intensity with a more reflective emotional core. Lyrically, the single explores distance, memory, and the lingering presence of relationships in a hyper-digital world, where endings rarely feel complete, and connection continues through feeds and digital traces. “It exists in that post-internet...

TroyBoi has teamed up once again with Toxic Rob for their latest collaboration, “Way Better,” a groove-heavy record that blends hip-hop swagger with the producer’s signature bass-driven sound. Built around weighty percussion, deep low-end, and a laid-back bounce, the track gives Toxic Rob’s vocals plenty of room to shine. Rather than relying on an oversized drop, TroyBoi keeps the production clean and intentional, creating a rhythm-focused record that feels equally suited for headphones and the dancefloor. The release follows the pair’s previous collaboration “DHUNGA,” which is approaching 2 million Spotify streams and showcased the chemistry that continues on “Way Better.” Beyond its club-ready energy, the track also carries a message...

Canadian producer and engineer Joseph Desando has quietly become a key contributor to a growing number of successful electronic music releases, live productions, and commercial projects. Over the course of his career, Desando has earned credits on more than 25 officially released records that have collectively surpassed 60 million streams. Since joining Loud Luxury’s creative team in 2024, he has contributed production, engineering, and live performance material used across the duo’s international tours and releases. Among his recent accomplishments, Desando contributed to an officially released Taylor Swift remix that reached No. 1 on the U.S. iTunes chart in late 2025. His catalog also includes work with artists such as Frank Walker...

Photo credit: Alive Coverage/Electric Forest The beauty of Electric Forest is hard to put into words. It has a certain energy and power to it that one can’t even begin to fathom until they truly submerge themselves into the Forest. And that is much more than just buying a ticket. It means stepping out of your comfort zone. It means dancing with strangers. It means taking it all in and seeing how the magic of Forest can transform you, the other 360 days that you aren’t at Rothbury. That’s when you’ll really see why so many people lovingly call this place home. Why so many people put in their time-off request at work as a “Family camping trip” even if they’re traveling alone. The magic isn’t just names on a flyer, but a collection of so...

There are few sounds in electronic music and sound design as immediately recognizable as the stacked sawtooth wave. Emerging from the digital, virtual analog revolution of the 1990s, the supersaw became the driving force of rave anthems, euphoric pop, and wall-of-sound club music. Today, Native Instruments is proud to introduce Super*Saw (pronounced SuperStarSaw), a brand-new synthesizer co-created with visionary artist, producer, and PC Music founder A.G. Cook. To celebrate the launch, we sat down with A.G. Cook at Baltic Studios in London to talk about his unique production philosophy, how he pushes digital instruments to their limits, and how Super*Saw condenses complex stacking workflows into a single, highly expressive instrument...

Mazare released the single ‘The End’ featuring Lost in Hollywood today via Universal Music Italia. The producer from Northeast Italy has received support from SLANDER, Illenium, Seven Lions, Said The Sky and Don Diablo. In the past six years his music has come out mainly on Monstercat and Insomniac Records, collecting more than 35 million streams on Spotify. He grew up with his father’s records by Pink Floyd, U2 and Genesis, and electronic music took hold after he heard David Guetta’s ‘When Love Takes Over’ in 2009. His approach blends heavy metal-electronic hybrids with emotional pop-rock elements, inspired by The Prodigy, Noisia and Bring Me The Horizon. ‘The End’ extends Mazare’s recent heavier direction by pairing distorted...

The existing entry point into the standalone rekordbox ecosystem, the XDJ-RR, was released in 2018, so is based on technology that is basically prehistoric at this stage.

On the new episode of Beatport Tech over on YouTube, Mojaxx breaks down everything you need to know about the unit – the good, the bad, and the stuff which has him scratching his head.
