UTG EP PREMIERE: The Monsters I’ve Met – ‘Lights Out!’

October 30th, 2012

James Shotwell

Michigan post-hardcore newcomers The Monsters I’ve Met, which features former members of Famous Last Words (InVogue Records), are releasing their new album, Lights Out!, on October 31. Being from the mitten state ourselves, UTG could not pass up the opportunity to premiere the album ahead of its release date.

Say what you will about the fusion of electronica and post-hardcore, but it’s clear from the response of listeners worldwide that it’s a niche that is here to stay. The Monsters I’ve Met are amongst the few acts that have found a way to stand apart in a scene flooded …

August 14th, 2012

Grant Trimboli

President Obama has been on the cusp of everything cool in the digital world since his initial run over four years ago. Today he continued to show a deep connection with (or at least knowledge of) youth culture by releasing a new campaign video targeting fans of EDM. The clip features DJs from all walks of life discussing the importance of getting involved politically (and supporting their favorite candidate) while speaking as PSA-like as possible. It’s not exactly groundbreaking marketing, but it is a great play by a serious political candidate. Click past the jump to enjoy “DJs For Obama.”…

“We Own The Night,” Wolfgang Gartner’s collaboration with fellow producer/dj Tiësto, premiered at the National Hotel for one of the premiere parties on South Beach last Saturday. Speaking about the track, Gartner offered:

“The Tiësto collaboration is definitely the one that I’m most excited about,” Gartner said. “We’ve both been playing it out, and judging by the response, we both — I’m going to try and sound humble — but we both think this going to be …

James Shotwell

We’re less than two weeks away from the release of Asking Alexandria’s remix album and today we couldn’t be more excited to bring you a stream of a brand new album cut!

“Reckless And Relentless,” which also serves as the title track to AA’s 2011 album, has been completely (and geniously) reworked by mixmaster Document One. You can stream the track after the jump.

Though delayed for what feels like a year, Stepped Up And Scratched finally arrives in stores on November 21 through Sumerian Records. We know remixes aren’t for everyone, so we have to ask: Will you be …
