House | EDX Taps BB Diamond For Vocal Version of His Hit “Want You (Then I Found You)”
Posted by Tay on October 14, 2015
EDX has been on a tear this year. He started 2015 off strong with “Remember House,” his most groove-driven to date, and continued to showcase his matured sound with outputs like “Want You,” before kicking off the summer with one of the biggest remixes of the year, his “Indian Summer” remix of Sam Feldt’s track, “Show Me Love.” In the midst of all that, EDX wasn’t back home in Switzerland, or kicking back on the beach in Los Angeles, rather the house luminary has been embroiled in two massive world tours – first, his “Progression of Sound” world tour, then his “Want You” tour, and now, he’s on his “Belong” tour. With just two months of the year left, EDX is bringing back “Want You” with an added twist, as he’s teamed up with BB Diamond to turn “Want You” into “Want You (Then I Found You)” – a soulful vocal rendition of the track. Stream it above or on Spotify, and check out EDX’s upcoming tour dates after the jump. “Want You (Then I Found You)” will be released on Friday, October 30th.

House | Listen to Gryffin’s Amazing New Remix of Years & Years’ “Desire”
Posted by Tay on July 31, 2015
Everything Gryffin touches is absolutely magic. A few months ago, he unveiled an out-of-this-world remix of Years & Years’ “King,” as he blended his expertly crafted melodies with the indie soul of the UK band, but it seems like the NYC-based producer isn’t finished with his friends from across the pond. Gryffin’s latest effort sees him dabbling into Communion once again, as he turns “Desire” into a dance music classic. Years & Years frontman, Olly Alexander, is front and center on the remix, as Gryffin masterfully floats Alexander’s soulful croons atop a bed of dreamy melodies and evolving bass lines. Since storming onto the scene last year, Gryffin has been on a meteoric rise to the top, and with his “Desire” remix taking the honors of being the lead single off of the forthcoming We Are Your Friends, the future is bright for the young phenom.

House | EDX Unveils His Latest X-Booty, “I Found U in Uruguay”
Posted by Tay on May 27, 2015
While most artists prefer to split up their time touring and working on music in the studio, EDX always seems ready to do both. Even in the midst of his “Want You” North American tour, the veteran producer has managed to find time to deliver his latest effort, an X-Booty of his remix of “Uruguay,” dubbed, “I Found U in Uruguay.” An expert fusion of Axwell’s “I Found You,” with his chart-dominating remix of “Uruguay,” “I Found U in Uruguay” maintains the house backbone of EDX’s remix, while the track is further elevated by the soulful vocals of Max’C. The Swiss-based DJ has been playing this bootleg out on his NoXcuses podcast recently, but it’s finally seeing the light of day, and you can snag the free download here.
