Stay Cool at the Mad Decent Block Party Dallas this Saturday!

We’re about to take our music to the streets for the Mad Decent Block Party in Dallas this Saturday, August 31st. But before we get free and express ourselves, we need to protect ourselves.

While we’re dancing to artists like Major Lazer, Dillon Francis, Flosstradamus, the heat index in Dallas is expected to reach up to 104 degrees. We know we don’t need to remind you of how the sun can drain the body, so if you’re wondering what you can do to stay cool while you’re walking and dancing outside all day, we’ve got you covered…

  • Stay hydrated by keeping a filled water bottle with you at all times.
  • Look out for one another. If you and your friends have been sweating, grab some waters for the group to replenish nutrients.
  • Enjoy our misting station.
  • Dark colors absorb heat rays, so avoid wearing all dark clothes.

There are plenty of ways to stay cool at the Mad Decent Block Party in Dallas this year, so don’t miss out on your chance to go. Grab your tickets today!

Something Wicked Sound Clash: Cosmic Gate, Luminox

On this edition of Something Wicked’s sound clash, we are merging two of our acts who have evolved their sound over the years. Though one wants to wake our minds and the other wants to run this, there’s no denying the fun we’re gonna have when Cosmic Gate and Luminox take the stage at Something Wicked Festival on Saturday, October 26th – no matter how different their sounds may be.

Cosmic Gate

artist cosmic gateThe German duo Cosmic Gate formed in 1999 after a chance meeting in a recording studio. Nic Chagall and Bossi’s first single was “The Drums,” followed by tracks “Exploration of Space,” “Mental Atmosphere,” and their “Somewhere over the Rainbow” remix which used samples from the film The Wizard of Oz. Even though their steady stream of releases were popular in Germany, their 2001 single “Fire Wire” is the release that put the name Cosmic Gate on the international map.

Throughout the years, the boys have fluctuated between the harder and more melodic styles of trance, but their impact on the culture remains the same. Like the release of their 2006 long-player Earth Mover. Featuring club hits “Analog Feel,” “Should Have Known,” and “I Feel Wonderful,” the album saw Nic and Bossi shift towards an edgier, more expansive sound and received an IDMA nomination for Best Album of 2007. The album has also been coined by both press and fans as a new “year-one” for the act.

Their latest and fifth artist album, Wake Your Mind, has amassed not only a following for the music it contained, but it also became a rapidly growing movement with the initials “WYM” being the abbreviation‐of-choice for anyone wishing to exhibit a boundary-less, forward-thinking, and universal outlook to dance music as a whole. Mixmag said that album track “Be Your Sound” is a stand-out, saying “finally unseats ‘Fire Wire’ as Cosmic Gate’s best‐known-for track.” It scored an IDMA nomination in 2012 and this year, “Flying Blind,” also on the same LP, received a nomination as well.

With a fool-proof marriage of trance, progressive and electro, the sound of Cosmic Gate will continue to evolve, which is one of the things we love most about the duo. So yes, Nic and Bossi, our minds have been awakened and we can’t wait to see you both perform live at Something Wicked on October 26th. Tickets are on sale now, so grab yours today!

Luminox

artist luminoxIn just a few months time, Luminox went from being a bedroom DJ to a big stage DJ; from making SoundCloud sets to being in the sets of DJs like A-Trak, Dillon Francis, Diplo and Skrillex. Having produced since 2005, Luminox recently found his niche transitioning from his former hip-hop style to his now trap style. When the sub-genre began to grow, Luminox’s 2012 remix of the Bingo Players’ song “Rattle” is one of songs that can mark the beginning of the emerging sound. His adrenaline-infused hip-hop signature has garnered him thousands of fans all over the world, as well as some hefty recognition from some of dance music’s most elite producers and DJs. His remixes and originals have that characteristic 808 snare, piercing through deep hip-hop kick drums, creating an infectious vibe on the dance floor. Though Luminox is a name still on the rise, his productions will sound familiar to any bass head who attended dance music festivals this past year as his remixes of Major Lazer’s “Original Don” and Sandro Silva and Quintino’s “Epic” with Carnage, have been championed in headlining sets at Tomorrowland, Ultra Music Festival and Electric Zoo.

We were extremely excited to have this increasingly busy young talent perform at this year’s Something Wicked on October 26th. Buy your tickets today!
