Tiësto Launches New Radio Show Dedicated to House
This past Sunday, Sun City headliner Tiësto launched his new radio show Club Life After Hours. The new weekly show on Sirius XM will be dedicated to house in all of its forms. Clocking in at a whopping 24 hours, the show will run from 5:00 AM Sunday to 5:00 AM Monday. Though the show won’t feature Tiësto every week, special guest DJs will be invited to throw down on the decks.
The first episode ranged from the chiller side of house to the funkier styles, featuring artists like Audiofly, Tale of Us, and Tube & Berger. “Stylistically, I don’t think [house is] ready for my live sets just yet because I like to play a little more energetic and uplifting, but who knows in the future?” Tiësto says. “For now I want to experiment with it on the radio and see what people think.”
With a trap release on Musical Freedom last week and recent tweets promising to produce a trance song, what’s one more genre to add to the multifaceted artist? We’re not sure what to expect when Tiësto takes the stage at Sun City Music Festival, but we do know there’s only one way to find out. Have you bought your tickets yet?
Candyland relaunches Sweet Shop Records
Back in 2012, breakout successes Candyland launched their own imprint in Sweet Shop Records. Though the duo took a small hiatus, we were overjoyed when we learned that Ethan and Josie are relaunching the project – with some newly added benefits.
Sweet Shop Records is a multi-genre label, which, of course, is fitting considering the duos eclectic productions. Fans can now send in demos to have the chance at having their work distributed to the world by the company. The label’s official site has also launched the Sugar Free feature. Sugar Free is a mailing list that anyone can subscribe to. Fans can sign up on Facebook or the duo’s site to receive notifications of ticket giveaways, remix stems, free downloads, and so much more.
We’re sure you’ll hear some sweet stuff when Candyland joins Sun City Music Festival this August 31st and September 1st. Tickets are available online, buy your tickets today!
