Videos | Experience the Magic of Hardwell’s “World’s Biggest Guest List” Charity Concert With the Official Aftermovie
Posted by Juicebox on February 11, 2016
Last December, Hardwell set off to make history, and join the ranks of world record holders, in the most charitable way by hosting 100,000 fans on his personal guest list. While over 125,000 people pre-registered for the opportunity, over 70,000 fans joined Hardwell at the D.Y. Patil Stadium in Mumbai. For the concert, Hardwell and his United We Are Foundation teamed up with the children advocacy group, Magic Bus, with the goal of providing education for 3,000 underprivileged children in India – a goal that they shattered. The “World’s Biggest Guest List” concert was able to generate enough money to help 18,000 kids – six-times their original goal – as Hardwell became the first artist to use his voice to make a difference in the world. The official aftermovie follows Hardwell, as he explains how he was inspired to come to Mumbai for this charity concert, and reproduces the magic that took place in Mumbai on December 13th. Check it out above.
Progressive House | Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman – ID2
Posted by Middy on September 23, 2014
No this is not some ode to a bygone era of constant Avicii IDs, this is simply just the name that has become branded to this tune, including on radio tracklists and to retitle it might damage the effect of the release. Let’s hope it doesn’t start a trend of artists releasing songs legitimately called “ID” because that would cause some serious problems for guys like Eric Prydz. Size has been on fire this year with their usual suspects of high energy tunes, but also a new smattering of deeper, groovier tunes that have escaped the clutches of his newly formed We Are All X imprint. In the mold of those big progressive tunes, Dimitri Vangelis & Wyman return for their 4th release on the label, first since April’s smash single “Payback” that still echoes around the few remaining festival grounds and now filled arenas & concert halls. Expect to hear “ID2” plenty as the year closes out.
Another note worth mentioning, their Tom Ordell remix that was previewed last summer will finally get a release date soon, so stay tuned to Vangelis & Wyman’s socials for details.

Events, Home, Review, Videos | Aokify America: Steve Aoki x Borgore x Waka Flocka Flame (Recap)
Posted by FilthyTaft on November 21, 2013
The title says it all – Dim Mak hooked FNT up with passes so that we could cover the show. Steve Aoki, Borgore, and Waka Flocka made a dream team on Saturday night at the Bill Graham Civic Center in San Francisco, and they put on one hell of a show. Check out the media gallery below (especially the POV recap video), and make sure to check out the rest of the tour’s stops before you miss it altogether here.
To give you a better picture of what the concert was like, keep in mind that the show was somehow sold out (it was at the Civic Center in San Francisco, imagine how many people it takes to sell out a concert there). Borgore had an incredible opening set, playing his classics as you’d expect (e.g. Nympho). But, he surprised everyone towards the end of his set when he started dropping some unheard trap and moombahton – some HEAVY trap and moombahton I might add. By this point, everyone was completely riled up – but it doesn’t stop there because just when it seemed like a peak, Borgore brought out Waka Flocka who yelled an entire verse to a wild audience.
But hold up – Steve Aoki starts his set at this point. Mind-blowing is an understatement. Between his stage dives, cake throws, bottle pops, and raft rides, Steve Aoki slapped his bangers so hard that his dad’s restaurants almost went out of business (his dad owns Benihana’s). He played every song that you would wish he would play live. And he killed all of them.
Moral of the story is, if you didn’t go, you missed out. Put Aoki on the bucket list.
