Alesso to headline Mexico dates!
While it has only been three short years that Alessandro Lindblad, better known as Alesso, first burst out onto the scene, the list of accolades in those years are to be commended.
Just a year after his debut release, Alesso rose to international notoriety with string of popular hits like his remix of Starkillers, Alex Kenji, and Nadia Ali’s “Pressure,” which, by the way, was one of the most played dance songs of 2011. In the same year, Alesso collaborated with fellow Swede, Sebastian Ingrosso on the track “Calling,” scored an official remix of Swedish House Mafia’s “Save The World,” and got to remix for then then, world’s #1 DJ, David Guetta on the track “Titanium.” And from 2012 on into today, it has been nothing but a slew of successive Beatport chart-toppers like festival favorites, “Years” with Matthew Koma, “City of Dreams,” alongside Dirty South and his latest solo release “Clash.”
As we look at Alesso’s list of achievements in the short span of his career, it seems,to us, that he definitely made the right decision when he sold motorized scooter for his first studio set-up. As 2013 picks up speed, we are excited to announce that Alesso will be headlining three dates in Mexico. Join us as we team up with Alive Enertainment and clash onto a dancefloor near you!

Magnetic Music Festival Artist Profiles: Dash Berlin
A few weeks ago, we announced that Liquified and Disco Donnie Presents would be embarking on a new brand new venture for dance music fans in the Southeast. On April 20, 2013, Magnetic Music Festival will take place in Atlanta, GA and feature an audiovisual sensory experience with state-of-the-art production, sound, video mapped stage designs, LEDs and lasers all set to the backdrop of amazing music from some of the finest DJs in the industry who you will be learning about through our artist profile series. Today’s profile will help get you acquainted with the #7th DJ in the World, Dash Berlin.
Hailing from Hague, Netherlands, Dash Berlin frontman, Jeffrey Sutorius, is no stranger to the electronic music industry. Working for many influential record stores and being an avid collector of vinyl trance music himself, Sutorius has a knack for creating music for a universal dancefloor. Calling on close friends and producers Eelke Kalberg and Sebastiaan Molijn (responsible for international anthem, “Better Off Alone”) in early 2006, the trio formed the Dash Berlin project and designed an unprecedented new sound of trance, coined as the “Dash Berlin Sound.”
Their 2008 single, “Till the Sky Falls Down,” was not only their debut release, but also their first big hit, as Armin van Buuren added the track to his popular Universal Religion mixed album. Following the success of the single, Armin quickly signed Dash Berlin to the revered, Armada Music label. Now, under the Armada umberella, Dash Berlin is the head of Aropa Records, while still managing to headline festivals around the world. Long-time musician, producer and DJ, we’re glad to have him join us at the first-ever Magnetic Music Festival.

UME Pre-Party Artist Profile: Dillon Francis
When 24-year old, LA-based producing DJ, Dillon Francis first broke out on the scene, his tracks became an instant underground sensation. Dancehall vibes “Westside” and “Masta Blasta” landed Dillon in the category of being one of the pioneers of the moombahton movement. After his first official release on Mad Decent, he continued on to collaborate and remix for artists like Steve Aoki, Calvin Harris, and Diplo, just to name a few. His first dubstep release on Play Me Records,”Take Me High,” not only peaked at #13 on Beatport’s dubstep chart, but was also a staple in every one of Rusko’s sets on his OMG Tour.
With a slew of successful releases, it’s easy to see why Dillon caught the attention of many top-players so early in his career. Part viral video maker, and part musician, you can catch Dillon Francis behind the turntables on his first headlining tour, the Wurld Tour, with Flosstradamus, Baauer, and RL Grime, OR, you can catch his set at Clayton’s Beach Resort Hotel for the Official UME Pre-Party Tonight!
