MORTEN Brings the Heat With “FIYAA”

Heating it up from his native Denmark, MORTEN’s latest delivery “FIYAA” is a surefire sizzler. The prog & electro house favorite bathes the track in a bass house marinade before igniting it in flames with his signature big room sound. The single marks MORTEN’s return to Dim Mak since his 2015 anthem “Ukali” set the world aflame. The tenacious track garnered A-list support across the globe, including David Guetta, Sidney Sampson, Dimitry Vegas and Like Mike, and R3hab.
 
“FIYAA” continues MORTEN’s monumentous 2016. He kicked off the year releasing “Beautiful Heartbeat,” on Aviici’s PRMD label. The track racked up over 10 million collective streams, with official remixes from Aviici, Deorro, and RAC. During Miami’s Ultra Music Festival, MORTEN premiered “Body Down (Inspector Gadget),” a playful take on Inspector Gadget’s theme song. Dancing Astronaut called the festival anthem “Unapologetically fun,” and exclaimed that MORTEN’s, “…Not only atop the big room game right now, but using a variety of crossover and club-favoring material to dominate the electronic landscape in 2016.”
 
Through contagious originals and powerful remixes, MORTEN continues to change the game. His official remix of David Guetta’s “What I Did For Love (Feat Emeli Sandé)” flips the original into a vibrant club-oriented house heater. The bootleg transformation of Adele’s “Hello” gained airplay on BBC Radio 1 and Sirius XM’s BPM, while fans at EDM.com voted MORTEN’s rendition the best of the remixes thus far. His live show is as equally compelling as his production chops, playing to large crowds at Tomorrowland, Life In Color, and Ushuaïa. Make sure to catch MORTEN on the road this summer as all signs point to him remaining a force to be reckoned with on the global dance circuit.

Afrojack celebrates Beatport #1 with free 2016 WALL Mixtape

The mighty Afrojack is celebrating landing another Beatport #1 by releasing a new mixtape packed full of exclusive tracks.

His Hollywood collaboration with Hardwell has hit the top spot in the download store’s overall sales chart, and he’s decided to thank his fans with the free Afrojack 2016 WALL Mixtape today.

The mix contains brand new tracks from Afrojack himself that have never been heard online previously, plus plenty of other hot-off-the-press bangers with his producer friends and colleagues across the world – including Laidback Luke, Ravitez, D.O.D., Twista, Travis Barker, Apster and MC Ambush. It’s also makes for an energy-packed way to celebrate getting through the first month of the year!

The mixtape is the latest gesture from Afrojack to show his appreciation for his loyal legion of fans. Last weekend he invited 10 lucky winners to join him in Las Vegas for his set at his Omnia residency, and you can bet there will be plenty more special ‘thank-yous’ as 2016 rolls on.

The monstrous Hollywood combines spine-tingling trance melodies, big riffs with raucous, raw synth blasts, a distinctive vocal hook and plenty of clever production to create one of the year’s first big dancefloor bombs. It’s been an anthem in the duo’s respective sets since summer 2015, and it’s no surprise that this meeting of two of the sharpest minds in EDM has brought about such epic results.
