Future Music Festival

Another local name confirmed for the festival

And they're headlining Future Music's heavy Futuredome Stage.. With Future Music Festival 2015 rapidly approaching, news is coming thick in the lead-up. Late last year saw the addition of Sandstormin' Darude to the festival, and this week has seen a couple of big announcements. First there was the 200-strong local lineup drop - check the huge roundup of names HERE. And today sees the one-two punch of festival headliners The Prodigy dropping a new single/video clip in Nasty, and also being announced as the hosts of the Futuredome stage, which looks EPIC and a little like this: Check out the video clip for The Prodigy's Nasty below, pre-order their February 27-due new album The Day Is My Enemy HERE, and head to the Future Music Festival WEBSITE for tickets/more info.

Truth be told, there aren't a lot of huge singles but it's definitely compensated by some fucking golden video clips.  Future Music Festival also has other acts like Drake, The Prodigy and Die Antwoord also playing - grab a ticket HERE. FEEL THE BEAT Darude's other major banger, and the soundtrack to your blue light discos/boosh doof days. You will feel the be

Fucking Darude

Dropping trap bombs with the Dutch trio ahead of Future Music next year.. While we eagerly await Future Music Festival's second lineup announcement to see who'll be joining the likes of Drake, The Prodigy, Tchami and a bunch more, we'll be getting in touch with some of the acts already announced. Dutch trio Yellow Claw consist of Bizzey (Leo Roelandschap), Jim Aasgier (Jim Taihuttu) and Nizzle (Nils Rondhuis), bringing a wide range of genres, with a strong focus on bigroom trap, working with artists such as Flosstradamus, and signing to Diplo's Mad Decent. We caught up with Nils to talk EDM's oversaturation, exploring new genres and trying out some "new album shit" when they make their Australian debut next year. I’ve read you guys were pretty tired of some of the dance music coming out a few years ago – was there anything in particular about it getting you down and what initially drew you to the realms of trap and working within those BPMs? Well it was the whole EDM overload, every r
