Kevens Teases the New Album
We may be right next door to Rum Bum Records but we haven't heard any more of We Are One than you have. Well...maybe a little bit more. I was lucky enough to get to spend a day in the studio with Kevens when he and his band were laying down tracks ... -
Kaukuta's on the Scene
Kaukuta used to be a part of the British electronica group Union Jack, but now he's all by himself, living in sunny Miami Beach, where he's still quite attached to the scene. Only now, he's on the other side of the stage, and on the other side of the ... -
Umek Delivers
With all the fusion that's gone on the world of electronica lately, DJs that play straight up techno music have taken a bit of a backseat to the larger story of the "electro dash" phenomenon. But Umek is worth a listen, especially if you like your music as ... -
Fedde Gets the Girls
The girls went crazy when Fedde Le Grand came by out interview tent at Ultra Fest. Sure, Fedde's got it goin' on, but it's his music that really draws them in. By combining pop and electronica and sprinkling it with just bit of naughtiness, Fedde has made ... -
Dan Black Embraces the Notness
Dan Black's music is danceable, easy on the ears, and totally unboring. When we met him at Ultra he only had a few minutes to talk to us before he was whisked away into the father reaches of Ultradome. So don't blame us – or him – for the brevity. ... -
Get Into the Afrobeta World

Chillin with Biscuits
When Danielle sat down with The Disco Biscuits at Ultra Music Festival, they had just come off stage after their powerful, jam-happy performance. Much as they were there to see and be seen, The Biscuits were also at Ultra to check out the music. Or at least, ... -
When the Lights Go Out, the Party Rages On
As if life weren’t good enough partying with the Disco Biscuits pre-Ultra, the weekend only got better for electro heads all over Miami. The mission: leave no party unturned. How does one do this after two bumpin' days at Ultra? No sleep, and tons of ... -
And Now for Something Completely Different
The elaborate electronica buffet at ULTRA Music Festival 2010 served up enough techno, trance, house, and breakbeats to thoroughly indulge festie appetites. (Until their eardrums recover, that is.) In the mix we experienced a myriad of fusions – i.e. ... -
Ultra Insanity
Insanity! Day 2 of ULTRA Fest was jam packed with it. The lineups today were legendary and the massive SOLD-OUT crowd certainly kept me on my toes. The schedule I tossed out today, much like the electronic genius I heard, had me doing a lot of “Go. Chill. ... -
