Fast forward a month and a half, and the former Dancing Astronaut<\/em> Artist to Watch has returned to his longtime home of This Never Happened with a five-sided EP,\u00a0It\u2019s Okay To Wonder.<\/em> Following \u201cAll About This,\u201d Otherwish\u2019s fifth extended release on Lane 8\u2019s imprint further refines his distinct melodic house sound that has continually set him apart over the past two years. \u2013 Ross Goldenberg<\/em><\/p>\n Max Styler \u2013 You & Me<\/strong><\/p>\n Max Styler ushers in a new chapter with \u201cYou & Me,\u201d one of Dancing Astronaut<\/em>\u2018s most-anticipated IDs of the year and the debut release on his freshly minted label, Nu Moda. Most notably included in Styler\u2019s Seismic 2024 set, the single from Dancing Astronaut<\/em>\u2018s reigning Breakout Artist of the Year captures the essence of what Nu Moda represents\u2014artistry without limits and a commitment to those redefining the sound of dance music. \u201cYou & Me\u201d carries an infectious energy that embodies Styler\u2019s evolving vision as both a producer and curator.

Championed in sets by artists like Michael Bibi and Adam Ten, the track fuses eerie energy with the Dancing Astronaut<\/em> Artist to Watch alumni\u2019s tech house grooves. With screams and howls woven into its rhythm, \u201cScream!\u201d is a dance floor ready thriller that keeps the energy high from start to finish. \u2013 Liana Stern<\/em><\/p>\n Bob Moses \u2013\u00a0BLINK<\/em><\/strong> [Album]<\/strong><\/p>\n Written across a flurry of Dropbox links and Discord notifications traded across coasts (Tom Howie in New York, Jimmy Valence in Los Angeles), Bob Moses\u2019\u00a0BLINK<\/em>\u00a0asks an existential question: \u201cHow do you reconcile the desire to have a meaningful life with the realization that it\u2019s gone in an instant, that you can\u2019t hold onto things for too long?\u201d<\/p>\n After remotely tooling ideas from keyboard riffs and drum loops, the electronic-rock duo reconvened in several cities, including Toronto and Vancouver, to answer it. The resulting LP \u2013 their fourth \u2013 straddles the ever-thin line between for now and forever. Across 10 stirring tracks that find the outfit at the top of its game, Bob Moses awakens to a reality equal parts bitter and sweet: The only way to fix ephemera is to accept that it\u2019s all ephemeral.<\/p>\n \u201cLife moves so quickly that it\u2019s sometimes hard to keep up. Are we doing all we should be? Are we achieving our goals, hitting the next level, and creating the most meaningful life we can be? It\u2019s a lot to reckon with,\u201d Howie says of\u00a0BLINK<\/em>\u2019s title track. \u201cMaybe it\u2019s best to acknowledge that being present in the moment, cherishing our experiences, and having the courage to continue on the journey is often the best we can do. Because, you can blink and then it\u2019s gone.\u201d The album plays a lot like that, too. \u2013\u00a0Rachel Narozniak<\/em><\/p>\n Ian Snow \u2013\u00a0Sub Zero<\/strong><\/p>\n Snow falls softly. Ian Snow hits hard.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cSub Zero,\u201d the Denver-based producer\u2019s answer to June\u2019s \u201cIce Waves,\u201d deepens the frigid imagery and sounds of his burgeoning catalog with enough bass to turn a whiteout into a blackout. Sonically, it fuses the newer elements of his freewheeling, low-end-heavy sound with the stylistic groundwork he laid under his earlier project, SNOWMASS. \u201cMidtempo will always hold a special place in my heart. It\u2019s bouncy, grimy, and danceable \u2014 driven by the sounds of the future,\u201d he says. \u201cI love taking every nook and cranny of a track and glitching it out while\u00a0still preserving its body-moving impact. To me, \u2018Sub Zero\u2019 is the epitome of that balance.\u201d The track (and temperatures) drops via Bite This! \u2013\u00a0Rachel Narozniak<\/em><\/p>\n Afrojack & Eva Simon \u2013\u00a0Take Over Control (Remixes from Maddix, HILLS)<\/strong><\/p>\n Afrojack\u2019s celebration of 15 years of \u201cTake Over Control\u201d commences with a pair of remixes from Maddix and HILLS that make like the song\u2019s title to do just that. With dynamite in its DNA, the former\u2019s spin detonated at Tomorrowland Brasil last weekend, conferring a raw new vitality to one of Afrojack\u2019s most seminal releases. Maddix\u2019s hard, hammering take both incites chaos in raveland\u00a0and<\/em>\u00a0strikes a sharp contrast to the late-night house sensibilities of HILLS\u2019 interpretation. Slick and controlled, with weighty bass heft and club groove, the duo reframes \u201cTake Over Control\u201d for a different but no less propulsive dance\/electronic setting, naturally infusing it with their effortless cool. Consider control taken. \u2013\u00a0Rachel Narozniak<\/em><\/p>\n
