Albums | DLG. Strikes Gold on His Debut Album I Learned It the Hard Way

Posted by on November 15, 2025

Rising indie artist DLG. (David De La Garza) steps boldly into the spotlight with I Learned It the Hard Way, his first full-length album—an 11-track statement piece that instantly positions him as one of indie music’s most compelling new voices.

Blending introspective storytelling with lush, genre-blurring production, the album captures the messy, transformative journey of self-discovery. DLG.’s soulful, conversational vocal style nods to Mac Miller, while the project’s dreamy, immersive sonics echo the world-building of Tame Impala. The result is a sound that feels both warmly nostalgic and refreshingly future-minded.

Across its cinematic arc, I Learned It the Hard Way explores love, heartbreak, growth, and resilience with striking vulnerability. The album’s emotional weight is matched by its personal roots—its artwork was created alongside DLG.’s mother, a celebrated painter and sculptor, tying the project back to his Austin upbringing even as he continues building momentum in Los Angeles.

Already surpassing 50 million streams and picking up support from playlists like New Music Friday, Lowkey, and Internet Crush, DLG. proves he’s carving out a lane entirely his own. Fearless, authentic, and impossible to box in, I Learned It the Hard Way marks both a creative breakthrough and the start of an exciting new era for one of indie’s most promising new artists.

Albums | LAMIA Releases “Angel,” a Haunting Glimpse Into Upcoming Album Nighthawks

Posted by on November 14, 2025

Avant-garde artist and producer LAMIA returns with her powerful new single “Angel,” out now via AWAL and taken from her upcoming album Nighthawks (spring 2026). Blending ambient soundscapes, deconstructed-club energy, and post-trance atmospherics, “Angel” delivers a euphoric yet intimate listening experience that further cements LAMIA as a rising force in underground electronic music.

An MMus graduate of Goldsmiths and alum of Leeds Conservatoire and The BRIT School, LAMIA has built a reputation for boundary-pushing performances, with standout shows at Berghain, BBC Introducing Live Sessions, and the Berlin Music Video Awards, where BBC Introducing’s Alan Raw praised her as “one of the best live performers we have ever had.” Her work has also earned attention from CLASH, DMY, BBC Radio 1, Radio X, and KALTBLUT.

Written and produced during a difficult London winter, “Angel” became a beacon of hope for the artist. “Creating Angel was like a light that appeared and guided me through the darkness,” LAMIA says, citing inspiration from Mark Fisher’s concept of hauntology.

Following her acclaimed single “Cobra”—whose music video screened at the Berlin Music Video Awards and won Best Music Video at the Berlin Kiez Film Festival—“Angel” signals the next chapter in LAMIA’s cinematic, emotionally rich world. As anticipation builds for Nighthawks, she continues to redefine the edges of electronic music and performance in London and Berlin’s underground scenes.

News | SHADEZ Brings the Heat with ‘Beggin’

Posted by on November 11, 2025

SHADEZ brings something different to the floor with “Beggin,” the second single from his new EP ‘Let It Go.’ The Phoenix-based DJ and producer moves from the bright, Latin pulse of “Es Para Ti” into something heavier — a late-night cut where emotion meets rhythm. Deep basslines, crisp percussion, and a soulful vocal hook give the record its steady drive and darker tone.

Speaking on the process, SHADEZ explains, “When coming up with the idea for ‘Beggin,’ I wanted to focus on an emotional ride that pulled in the listeners. Everyone can resonate with being in some sort of a relationship struggle. So I came up with this idea that changed the motive — making you want to dance when going through a bump in the road.”

“Beggin” builds on the story started by “Es Para Ti,” expanding the sound and perspective of the ‘Let It Go’ EP. Where the first single moved on melody, this one thrives on groove and tension. It’s music designed for motion — minimal in structure but full in feeling — showing how SHADEZ translates personal emotion into club rhythm.

Beyond the music, SHADEZ has been building quietly but firmly. His single “Make Love” surpassed 291,000 streams on Spotify, and his Eclipse Sessions brand in San Diego has become a consistent spot for house music on the West Coast. Known for mixing Latin house and tech house at venues like The Harbor and Casablanca, SHADEZ is part of a growing wave of U.S. artists giving house music a wider, more cultural shape.

Albums | When Sacred Meets Techno: Padre Guilherme & Ebmath Release Veneremur Et Adoremus

Posted by on September 23, 2025

Few projects in electronic music dare to reframe tradition as boldly as Veneremur Et Adoremus, the debut EP from Lux Aeterna Records. A collaboration between Padre Guilherme, Italian duo Ebmath, vocalist Liliana Sofia Coelho, and the Pequenos Cantores de Amorim e de Laúndos children’s choir, the release fuses centuries-old sacred compositions with the immersive textures of melodic techno.

The EP opens with Ave Maria (Original Mix), a contemporary reimagining of Caccini’s timeless piece. The interplay between the children’s choir and Coelho’s hauntingly beautiful vocals is elevated by Ebmath’s sweeping synths and crisp rhythmic foundation. It is reverent, yet undeniably modern — a hymn for both sanctuaries and festival mainstages.

The second track, Adoramus (Original Mix), deepens this duality. Chant-like vocals weave into pulsing percussion and hypnotic melodic layers, creating a soundscape that feels equal parts meditative and celebratory. It embodies Padre Guilherme’s unique mission: to bridge the divide between spiritual transcendence and collective euphoria.

Following standout performances at Afterlife Ibiza, Zamna Festival, and even beneath Rio’s Cristo Redentor, Padre Guilherme continues to redefine what electronic music can symbolize. Veneremur Et Adoremus is not just an EP — it is an invitation to reimagine faith, tradition, and the dancefloor as one unified space.
