Even artists as ahead of the game as A-Trak find themselves leaning towards dated styles from time to time. Being that Fools Gold signee Ookay never really outgrew the festival-friendly sort of EDM that's grown passé himself, it makes sense that he would be the one to lead the label's founder on such a creative tangent.
Miami Music Week is just around the corner, but Protocol Recordings signees Florian Picasso and Blinders want to get you in the mood for the festivities early. The two progressive house artists have compiled a mix titled Miami 2016 sure to make you feel like you're already at one of the city's sunny beach parties.
It's been over a year since Ultra Music Festival Co-Founder Alex Omes was found dead at age 43 in his Biscayne Boulevard loft in Miami, Florida the day before his case against his former business partner, Russell Faibisch, was set to begin.

Martin Garrix seemed determined to take on the world at this time last year, debuting a wealth of music during his performance at Ultra Music Festival 2015.

With festival season about to kick off, there are no shortage of artists trying to put out the next big track for the main stage. Cedric Gervais has clearly caught the bug as well, because he's enlisted Jack Wilby on a track titled "With You" that features all the hallmarks of mainstream electronic music.
UK trance superstar Gareth Emery is taking his Electric For Life concept to the SLS South Beach during Miami Music Week, and he's stocking the shelves with some major talent. Electric For Life Miami will be a 12-hour pool party with artists representing every color of the trance spectrum.
It's about the time of the year that every mainstream EDM artist redoubles their efforts towards putting out a progressive house anthem that will dominate the festival circuit. Dzeko & Torres have offered up a formidable candidate in the form of their Hellberg collaboration, "Care For Me."
It's hard to improve upon the sincere sort of EDM that The Chainsmokers have been putting out as of late. Melodic bass music artist Illenium didn't let that deter him, however, and his remix of the duo's recent track "Don't Let Me Down" certainly brings something spectacular to the table.
