The two-day electronic music event is set to take place September 19-20, 2026, at Randall's Island Park, promising another immersive experience for dance music fans.

The Day Party will feature big-name DJs such as Mark Farina, Shiny Objects, J Boogie, and Collette back to back with DJ Heather, celebrating three decades of future music.

The Eski.Sub draws inspiration from the visual language of Brutalist architecture and the cultural atmosphere of UK grime music scene. The project examines the relationship between design, urban context, and emotional listening experiences, positioning the loudspeaker as both an audio device and a spatial object.

I'm not really a musician. I'm more a sound man. I was once described derogatorily as a fan who'd got his hands on a mixing desk, and I think I'm more that than a musician.

"Making the first-ever signature Sprite Sound is the type of artistic collaboration I love, since we both stand for empowering artists and authentic self-expression," Mustard said. "Sprite is iconic and a legend in music culture, and I made the new sonic identity to be intense, crisp and just as iconic as the brand."

The rework transforms the original into a deep Afro house cut built around rolling percussion, warm late-night atmospheres and spiritual vocal textures. Subtle shakers and fluid rhythmic patterns give the track a hypnotic drive, balancing emotive depth with a groove designed firmly for the dancefloor.

When modern UK rap great Dave first announced plans for a UK arena tour last October, the demand for tickets in London was so high that he quickly doubled his number of shows in the capital. The Boy Who Played the Harp Tour is at the O2 Arena for a whopping four dates - and they kick off this weekend.

No matter who Sam Shackleton plays with, you recognize his handiwork immediately: Since he began weaving together North African percussion and dubstep-inspired basslines more than two decades ago, he's developed one of the most distinctive styles in electronic music. He long ago shed virtually all traces of conventional UK bass music, effectively evolving into a genre of one. Dubstep was always a misnomer for his music, which never stepped, but flowed.

This release is about connection. Not in a strategic sense, but in terms of feeling part of a scene rather than orbiting around it. There's a lot of really strong music coming out of Australia right now, especially in the underground, and this felt like the right moment to place something there.

Last year, Four Tet started dropping a remix of 'Illegal'-the breakaway hit from PinkPantheress' 2025 mixtape -during his sets. As of today, Kieran Hebden's take on the track is now on streaming.

Skrillex surprised-dropped his latest EP on Thursday (January 15). The three-song Kora includes contributions from frequent collaborators Varg2™, Siiickbrain, and Whitearmor. It's the produer's second EP in as many months, following November's Hit Me Where It Hurts X. You can listen to the new one and check out its cover art below.

The UK summer may not always play ball, as anyone who's woken up inside a damp tent in a muddy Glastonbury field can attest to, but our festival programme always delivers.

At the end of last year, XOYO (along with other London venue The Camden Assembly) was acquired by the newly formed Propaganda Independent Venues group, run by Propaganda founder Dan Ickowitz-Seidler and TEG founder Richard Buck. By acquiring the Shoreditch club, the group wanted to help it "thrive under independent ownership and become a cultural hub for the area, offering opportunities and support to local artists and businesses".

Each stage is designed with a clear purpose, allowing different parts of the electronic spectrum to exist without compromise, from peak-time headline techno to foundational house, from high-pressure intensity to emerging local voices. Together, the stages form a complete ecosystem where every sound has room to exist properly, and the whole site is steeped in the famously high spec production, light and sound that makes this one of Europe's leading events.

At its peak, XOYO in Shoreditch was one of the best nightclubs in London, playing host to residencies from the likes of Benji B, Andy C, Artwork, Bradley Zero, Skream, Bicep and The Blessed Madonna. However the club struggled to maintain that level of cultural relevance post-pandemic and declined in popularity as it became a more commercial venue.
