Straight off releasing a 3-track EP for the label, Von D has returned to GetDarker for GetDarker TV episode 171, joined by ICU Audio and M.U.D Recordings lord N Dread for the second hour. This was aired last night (18 June) and is the perfect summer set – as they said – if you’re into your dubstep. Big vibes!
From being blacklisted in the music industry to getting put on Young Jeezy’s CTE label and now doing it solo; Freddie Gibbs has kept it 100% real since his first project. First we got “Freddie Soprano” which gave us a nice taste of what’s to come and now we’ve got “Eastside Moonwalker” which came along with an amazing set of visuals. Gangsta Gibbs’s next project “ESGN” will be coming out July 9th and features an amazing set of artists including Problem, Jay Rock, Spice 1 and several others. Peep the music video below to get by until then.

Astral People, who run the boutique electronic Outsidein Festival have responded to the announcement of Fuzzys own new dance niche party ‘Listen Out’.
Astral People note the positive nature of bringing new acts to Australia that haven’t toured before but also the similarities between the two.
The result also means a push of the Outsidein lineup that was scheduled for tomorrow/Thursday.
What do you think of it all?
OutsideIn was started as an avenue to promote quality underground electronic music to Sydney and beyond. We’ve put in hours upon hours of work into our brand and developing an event that we as music lovers could be proud of.
We are all for competition and companies bringing out new, interesting artists because at the end of the day why we do this is for the love of music. And this is just another opportunity for us to see some more of the artists we love. We’d rather people bring out these sort of artists than the same recycled acts year in and year out. It goes back to why we essentially started OutsideIn.
To see others now blatantly rip off what we’re trying to do is not just an insult to us but more so an insult to the intelligence of patrons and music lovers alike. If you think that copying a logo and rebranding your festival is enough to win over fans then you’re sadly mistaken. Our fans know good music. At the end of the day we are confident that it’s what will always keep us a step ahead of the others no matter what sort of brand or name is thrown behind it.
We will be delaying our announcement so we don’t get caught up in the media mess that will eventuate over the next week but rest assured, we will be delivering a product to the best we can for you guys early next week. This has been a tireless effort from all our ends and united with our amazing fans we will return bigger and better this year. Don’t follow imitation, we got you.
Love,
The OutsideIn Family x
If you ever wanted to see Yolandi from Die Antwoord pee her pants, now is your opportunity with their new video for Cookie Thumper. With the new Die Antwoord album due February next year, our favourite South African freaks have just released the video clip to their newest single, and as usual it’s highly entertaining but will still probably make you cringe.
The bulk of the video features Yo-Landi - who’s portrayed as an orphaned young girl who has developed a strong crush on a just-released prisoner – dancing around in her underwear before she sneaks off to meet up with her bad boy crush to smoke some pot.
Major trigger warning on this one….especially at the 5:20 mark.
M.I.A. huddling a rowdy beat provided by Switch and Surkin, “Bring The Noize” does exactly what the title says and M.I.A. has us dancing around the office.
The ZOMBiES released an advanced track from their upcoming project BetterOffDEAD titled “Palm Trees”, in the track they praise the amazing Mary while reminding us why we all loved their style in the first place. Each member goes in and the groups producer Erick Arc Elliott did the track so they are keepin’ it 100% in house. Don’t sleep on these cats cause they will be making more noise than they did with their last mixtape. Stream the track below!

In an official statement from Fuzzy, the Australian renowned festival and touring company are set to replace Parklife with a new brand of party this year, introducing Listen Out.
“Surprise: Fuzzy is not holding Parklife this year. Why? To focus on creating a new event that is desperately needed. Australia does not have a national intelligent dance music event – until now. Listen Out brings quality dance music to four spectacular inner city venues across Australia this spring.
Listen Out is the antidote to many of the things you don’t like about big music festivals. It is a carefully handcrafted party, with a killer lineup of the dance music that matters and a philosophy of best, not biggest. Say goodbye to endless timetable clashes, long hikes to the 12th stage and spending your day with several thousand people you can’t relate to. Listen Out is the right party, and we mean party not festival, for the right people.”
On paper it looks like a great idea, sort of like Laneway for the electronic heads. Fuzzy have always had stronger relationships with veteran dance producers and globally revered labels as well new talent both locally and worldwide.
The real test will be when the lineup lands this Friday, although Disclosure are said to already be returning and possibly the Ed Banger Crew.
Tickets from $89+bf on sale midday 27 June from listen-out.com.au

Here here to Fuzzy remaining an innovator of the Australian dance music landscape!
Update: Outsidein Festival Organizers respond to ‘Listen Out’ parties.
Yolanda Be Cool aka duo Sylvester Martinez and Durango Slim are seasoned producers/DJs who have been around the world stomping their anthems to the masses.
After recently signing their new album ‘Ladies and Mentlemen‘ onto Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak label as well as collaborating with Gurrumul, we thought the pair who are most famous for their ”We No Speak Americano” single that topped the British, Spanish, German, Mexican, Argentinian, Danish, Swiss, and Ecuadorian charts are qualified enough to tell use where in the world is best to play.
In coordination with their up and coming Sydney club show at Cakes World Bar this Saturday, we caught up with the duo to discuss. So here is Yolanda Be Cool’s ’5 clubs every dj should play at’
5. Space Terrace Ibiza – Was a dream come true playing there. Amazing sound system incredible vibe. We once debated whether the dj timed the breakdown of the tracks for the exact time the planes flew directly above the dancefloor as it would shake the whole place. The next day we decided they didn’t:)
4. XOYO London – Not as epic as Fabric but equally amazing on a similar but more intimate tip
3. Webster Hall NYC – More of a live venue than a club but incredible place to play. We have had a couple of crackers there over the years.
2. Panorama Bar Berlin – Probably the best 2 – 48 hours of clubbing you will ever have in your life if u can get in.
1. DC10 Ibiza - Best club in the world hands down. we dream of playing there. Might have to change our name first:) We have done some epic missions in between gigs flying around europe just to get a Monday afternoon in at this place.
A tad off your head? Met someone while under the influence at a festival and think it’s time to get married? Electric Daisy Carnival fans can celebrate love and unity at this year’s festival and tie the knot with special ceremonies on the grounds of EDC. Insomniac has partnered with Viva Las Vegas Weddings to conduct weddings, vow renewals and non-legal commitment ceremonies in the heart of this year’s EDC.
Ceremonies are available from 9:30 p.m. to 3 a.m. each night of the festival. A traditional wedding package is priced at $99 and a special Electric Elvis package, which includes two songs performed by Elvis, is priced at $179. Couples looking to legally marry at this year’s festival must obtain a marriage license from the Nevada Marriage Bureau prior to their ceremony. Reservations for marriage ceremonies can be made by calling Brian or Eileen toll free at 1-800-574-4450.
This I imagine will have divorce lawyers tongues wagging
It seems like every day we get an album announcement from one of our favorite artists that just serves to make 2013 more awesome. Case in point – today Bill Callahan confirmed the details of Dream River, his fifth record under his own name (it’s his eighteenth, if you count his records as Smog). He recorded it at the excellently named studio Cacophony in Austin, TX, and it’s apparently the most sensual and soulful record of his twenty-plus-year career – color us excited. The record’s out September 17; here’s the tracklist -
Dream River:
01 The Sing
02 Javelin Unlanding
03 Small Plane
04 Spring
05 Ride My Arrow
