House | EDX Releases “Revered” and “Want You (Then I Found You)” From His Arsenal of House Hits
Posted by Tay on November 3, 2015
When you’ve been around the scene for as long as EDX has, you pick up a few tricks here and there that help you streamline your entire workflow. For the Swiss dance authority, that means his already-strong ear for production is only getting better, making it easier than ever for him to deliver quality house productions. Take a look at EDX’s releases from 2015 and you’ll see that he’s hit on nearly all of them across the board – “Remember House” to kick off the year, “Belong” and his “Indian Summer” remix of Sam Feldt’s “Show Me Love” over the summer, and to close out the year strong, EDX has released two massive tracks from his arsenal, “Revered” and “Want You (Then I Found You).” The former is a tech house masterpiece with thumping synths and a smooth vocal topline, while the latter features BB Diamond delivering her iconic croons over a deep house anthem. On top of his rigorous release schedule, EDX will be taking over Create Nightclub in Los Angeles this weekend and Ruby Skye in San Francisco in December for two special nights of his NoXcuses parties that you don’t want to miss.
House | EDX Makes His Spinnin’ Records Return With “Belong”
Posted by Tay on August 27, 2015
It’s impossible to truly capture how impressive EDX’s career has been. Few artists in any genre have been able to stay relevant through so many dramatic changes like the Italian-born producer has been able to, which is an ode to his hard work and tireless effort. While last year was an evolutionary year for the Swiss beatmaster, this year has been one of EDX’s best. Releases like his “Indian Summer” remix of “Show Me Love” and his “Miami Sunset” remix of Spada’s “Catchfire (Sun Sun Sun)” were both chart-dominating releases, topping the Hype Machine and Beatport charts, on their way to over 30 million plays together. Now, EDX is closing out his year strong with his newest original, “Belong,” a masterful blend of deep and progressive, that marks his return to Spinnin’ Deep.

Well folks, it’s been real. Tomorrow, Sept 22, marks the official end of summer 2013. In honor of the change in season, I present to you the second installment of my very own Warm Air mixtapes. A mix designed to ease the transition of swimsuits to sweaters and piña coladas to pumpkin spice and peppermint mocha lattes. A mix to warm you up in the cool autumn breeze, to relive the sweet memories of the past few months, and keep your spirits up and motivated as you face challenges in school, work, and everyday life. So close your eyes, and let this mix take you back to that moment on the beach where you dug a hole in the sand with your toes as you watched the sun set, or when you indulged in the most amazing 4th of July BBQ of your life, or drove around recklessly with the top down and the radio up, or the night you watched an epic fireworks spectacle with your boo thang wrapped up tight in your arms.
Remember, just because the summer is over doesn’t mean the fun is. Oh no, 2013 can and will go out with a bang. With 3 months left to go, it’s time the real fun begins.
I’d also like to dedicated this mix to one of my most beautiful friends as she turns 21 today. Hope you enjoy this mixtape as you take your first legal swigs of alcohol today, take an extra big one for me <3

Electronic, House | Rasmus Faber – Indian Summer feat. Frida Sundemo
Posted by mimada on September 4, 2013
As evening approaches over here in the land of the tall, blonde and beautiful, I’ve got a spectacular view out my dorm room window of the sun setting in the horizon. Inspiring, to say the least, to watch it while listening to one of my latest discoveries. Now before I give that away, let me tell you I love house just as much as the next frat star but there comes a point, not just for house but all genres, where everything honestly starts to sound the same. I was worried I had reached that point until I stumbled upon Swedish producer (there seems to be a lot of these floating around FNT lately…), Rasmus Faber. And his latest release, titled “Indian Summer” featuring fellow Swede Frida Sundemo stands out to me the most. Like many a great progressive house tracks, it has the heavenly vocals and pulsating beats but instead of the overused builds and drops, Rasmus provides us with a “musical landscape of meandering and looping piano.” Not bad, right?
As I writer I do my best to share my own unique feelings, but considering my circumstances, the track’s description really nails it on the head for me:
Indian Summer evokes lazy, sunny days of happiness, yet with the imminence of autumn comes a slight sense of foreboding and melancholy that is ever-present in Scandinavian culture. Enjoy the last few rays, the swan song, the gentle passing of time as thoughts look to the future and what could be!
Will do, Rasmus.
