DAVID GUETTA UNVEILS NEW SINGLE ‘LIGHT MY BODY UP’ FEAT. NICKI MINAJ & LIL WAYNE

Dance music veteran David Guetta has joined forces with rap royalty, Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne, on ‘Light My Body Up.’

Effortlessly bridging the gap between electronic and urban artists, David Guetta’s unique vision and innate ability to fuse the two worlds has seen him produce some of the hottest collaborations on the planet time and time again – and this latest one will certainly not disappoint.

Rising through the ranks to achieve a level of stardom that most producers can only dream of, ground-breaking two-time Grammy award-winner Guetta has amassed a staggering 50 million album and single sales, 2 billion streams on Spotify alone, provided the original soundtrack for the UEFA Euro 2016 soccer championship, and played every major music event under the sun. Continuing his tour de force across the dance music festival circuit he will headline Ultra on Sunday, March 26th, marking his 11th straight year at the festival and leaving no doubt as to why David Guetta is widely regarded a global pillar of the genre and the world’s most successful DJ.

Nicki Minaj is no stranger to working with David Guetta. The pair previously teamed up on ‘Hey Mama’, ‘Turn Me On’ and ‘Where Them Girls At’ – all of which were met with enormous success, with ‘Where Them Girls At’ surpassing 120 million streams on Spotify, and ‘Hey Mama’ recently crossing 1 billion views on YouTube.

Hailed as ‘the most influential female rapper of her time’ by the New York Times, international megastar Nicki Minaj was the first female artist to be included on MTV’s Annual Hottest MC List and was included in TIME’s 2016 100 Most Influential People list. As further proof of her extraordinary global impact, in 2010 Minaj became the first female solo artist to have seven singles simultaneously charting on the US Billboard Hot 100, and has sold an impressive 20 million singles as a lead artist and 60 million singles as a featured artist worldwide. Last week, Minaj reached another incredible milestone as she marked her 73rd career Billboard Hot 100 entry – tyingAretha Franklin for the most total appearances among women in the 58-year history of the Hot 100 chart.

Hip-hop authority Lil Wayne shot to stardom when in 1991, at the age of 9, he became the youngest member to join Cash Money Records. Fast forward to 2012 – with 109 entries in the Billboard Hot 100 chart, Lil Wayne surpassed Elvis Presley’s longstanding record to become the male with the most entries in the monumental chart. The founder of Young Money Entertainment has an impressive twelve studio albums under his belt, selling over 100 million records worldwide to make him one of the best-selling artists of all time – not bad for someone who has only just celebrated his 34th birthday.

“Light My Body Up” is out now and available on all platforms including Apple Music, Deezer, iTunes, & Spotify.

SNBRN links with BLU J for Ultra Music release “You Got Me feat. Cara Frew”

SNBRN’s first original release of the year has landed with the help of the duo BLU J. The two acts have joined forces for “You Got Me (feat. Cara Frew),” a heavenly yet funky deep house track out now on Ultra Music.

“You Got Me” has a craveable melody and sexy topline courtesy of Cara Frew, a song that will surely be rinsed on every pool party playlist of the season. SNBRN is wrapping up his Spring Tour with stops remaining in New Orleans, South Padre Island, Denver and more, with the final performances being at Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.

Both artists spoke on the track’s conception:

"I met BLU J about a year ago up in SF after I had been playing their “I Remember” remix out. I ended up learning Ableton after being a Logic user in like 2 weeks so we could bounce the project back and forth. After hearing Cara Frew, I knew we had our collab and 5 months later the rest is history." - SNBRN

“It was a pleasure working with SNBRN on this tune! The blending of our sounds came together quite naturally, so we were easily able to create a track that was colourful & melodic, while still being deep & heavy” - BLU J

View fullsize

After endless anticipation, Unlike Pluto’s much awaited “Everything Black” single has arrived today on Monstercat. Implementing his now renowned signature sound, Unlike Pluto harnesses his deep Jazz, Rock and even R&B influences in this single featuring the powerful vocals from Mike Taylor. With a 23 plus date ‘Everything Black’ tour set to launch at the end of March, there’s no doubt that fans across North America will be getting swept off their feet to “Everything Black”

In a overflowing musical landscape such as Electronic Music, the challenge of separating oneself from the pack is perpetual. Armond Arabashi, known to many as Unlike Pluto, has proven unmitigated fearlessness in his work, allowing him to shine bright time and time again. Featured as one of Billboard’s “2016 Dance Artists to Watch”, Unlike Pluto has earned that title through a multitude of forms.

Becoming a household name for many via his remix for Diplo’s “Revolution” which garnered over 25 million plays, the Atlanta native, now Los Angeles based producer is making his mark on Dance music. Coming from a classically trained background, Armond provides unorthodox musical elements much through his deep Jazz influences; catching the eye of heavy hitting labels such as Mad Decent and Monstercat.

The trek for Unlike Pluto has only just begun; all we can do is watch in awe as this groundbreaking act continues to reach for the stars.

MORTEN returns to Dim Mak with the grimy club heater "TTFU," teaming up with New Jersey duo Riggi & Piros to offer up a ruthless 128BPM dubstep-influenced beast.

Just two months later, he followed with the hard-hitting TWOLOUD collaboration “Certified” on Dim Mak, which went on to crack Beatport’s Top 10 Electro House chart after an exclusive premiere on Billboard. MORTEN wasted no time in 2017, dropping a fresh edit of his Frida Sundemo-assisted track “Beautiful Heartbeat” for free download and teaming up with Borgeous for the sublime “Coffee Can Money (feat. RUNAGROUND),” which has already racked up over 530K streams on Soundcloud and YouTube combined.
 
Also making their return to Dim Mak is flourishing duo Riggi & Piros, who have accumulated an impressive release catalog in little time. Demonstrated in original tracks like “Tick Tock” (w/ Deorro) and “Savage” (w/ Borgeous and Lil Jon), their booming big room sound can be heard across the international festival landscape. Riggi & Piros have also emerged as esteemed remixers with official reworks of 3LAU and Yeah Boy’s “Is It Love,” Alvaro’s Spinnin Records hit “The Underground,” and Tiësto and KSHMR’s smash single “Secrets (feat. VASSY),” among many others. Moreover, they have solidified themselves as popular live performers due to their hectic touring schedule, which was highlighted by a spirited performance at Ultra Music Festival Miami 2016.
