It has been a big year for Sydney lads RÜFÜS. The young band have been to New York and played in front of their heroes, had great success at home with their single This Summer, and toured with the likes of Röyksopp. That last one may have been a foregone conclusion, given the bands’ shared love of umlauts, but RÜFÜS were still terribly excited at the chance to share a stage with Norway’s...

Major Lazer

Aside from the ubiquitous Gangnam Style, there was no more unlikely hit single in 2012 than Major Lazer’s Get Free. Featuring the unique, occasionally difficult voice of Amber Coffman from Dirty Projectors, and built around a strange little earworm of a hook, part of its success must surely have been that it was unlike anything else released in a year where enormous electro beats...

Tiesto to Headline Stereosonic
0 Comments. 1,669 Views. Posted 3 Apr 2012 @ 3:00pm.
Cat's out of the bag, thanks to a sneaky tweet some of us at the Beat offices were sharp enough to catch! Stereosonic - the yearly festival synonymous with the beginning of the summer party season for many a clubber in Australia is one we all look forward to year in and year out, and with none other than Tiesto taking out the headline slot, it should be a non-stop party. Many of you would have... Read More

Beataucue Easter Party at New Guernica
0 Comments. 783 Views. Posted 26 Mar 2012 @ 12:21pm.
Easter: my much-adored season of chocolate, regrettable weight gain and an excellent extended weekend away from work. There exist plenty of strange traditions for celebrating such a holiday, and we quite like the one that New Guernica have lined up - bringing down French duo Beataucue for an evening on the decks. Recently discovered and hyped by the Crookers then quickly signed to Tiga's... Read More

Diplo is one dude mired in controversy. Go on, I dare you: put “Diplo hates” into Google and you’ll find the guy reppin’ a serious hate-on for everybody from Lady Gaga and infamously, his ex-girlfriend and collaborator M.I.A. to poor music journalists like me. More than happy to run his mouth and tell it exactly like it is, Diplo (whose family and friends know him as Thomas Wesley Pentz) sure ain... Read More
