LOS ANGELES, Calif., February 25, 2016 – DJ Mag’s No. 1 DJs, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike and Ne-Yo performed their Billboard No. 1 hit ‘Higher Place’ for the first time on U.S. television on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2016 Revealed last week and footage of the performance was just made available to fans HERE.

‘Higher Place’ has garnered 21 million Spotify streams and 12 million YouTube views, was featured in the NBA’s Warriors vs. Spurs hype video, and was the most Shazamed track of Tomorrowland, TomorrowWorld, and Creamfields.

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike recently received six nominations for the 31^st annual International Dance Music Awards (IDMAs), including ‘Best European DJ’s,’ ‘Best Group’ and ‘Best Progressive House / Electro DJ.’ Their hit record ‘Higher Place’ earned two nominations for ‘Best R&B / Urban Dance Track’ and ‘Best Electro / Progressive House Track,’ while their equally massive collaboration with Ummet Ozcan ‘The Hum’ was also shortlisted in the latter category.

After being voted the No. 1 DJs in the world in the Top 100 Poll and becoming the first duo to hold this title, these nominations perfectly reflect the immense success and surge in popularity that Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike have experienced in recent months, and demonstrates that this year is set to be equally as huge as the previous. With ‘Higher Place’ and ‘The Hum’ both featured in the ‘Best Electro / Progressive House Track’ category, the duo’s status in the genre is confirmed, and it is clear that Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike are still the name on everyone’s lips.

THE ALBUM – The importance of Michael Jackson’s Off the Wall cannot be overstated. Recorded when he was just 20-years-old, the album heralded Michael’s stunning emancipation as a singular musical force and creative visionary. It smashed the ceiling on record sales for black artists, ushering in an exciting new era of R&B-to-pop crossover airplay, chart, marketing and sales trends not seen before in modern pop music. It’s the record that “invented modern pop as we know it,” wrote Rolling Stone. For fellow black artists of the day, Michael served as an illuminating inspiration.

To Black America, Off The Wall transcended music and entertainment altogether. The success of the album marked a level of national and international achievement that conjured pride in a culture that as late as the end of the 1970s was still fighting for the kind of social acceptance that Michael’s album received. Because of Off the Wall’s indelible influence, 21^st century artists as disparate as Beyoncé, Pharrell, Kendrick Lamar and The Weeknd all have a blueprint they turned to for creating their own version of superstardom.

Written by Michael Jackson, the first single from Off The Wall, “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough,” was Michael’s first Grammy and first single to hit No. 1 in the U.S. and internationally as a solo artist. With the singles “Rock With You,” “Off the Wall” and “She’s Out of My Life,” Jackson became the first solo artist in history to have four singles from the same album peak inside the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. The album was an enormous commercial success; as of 2014 it is certified eight times platinum in the United States and has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.

The Music: “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”; “Rock With You”; “Workin’ Day and Night”; “Get on the Floor”; “Off the Wall”; “Girlfriend”; “She’s Out of My Life”; “I Can’t Help It”; “ It’s the Falling in Love”; “Burn This Disco Out.”

THE DOCUMENTARY – Produced by Spike Lee, John Branca and John McClain. For MICHAEL JACKSON’s Journey from Motown To Off The Wall, director Spike Lee assembles a wealth of archival footage, including material from Michael’s personal archive, interviews with contemporary talents and family members, and Michael’s own words and image to create this insightful chronicle from the star’s early rise to fame through the release of this seminal album. A look at a chapter of his career that is rarely examined, MICHAEL JACKSON’s Journey From Motown To Off The Wall allows audiences to travel with Michael as he gets his start at Motown, strikes a new path with CBS Records, and forges a relationship with legendary producer Quincy Jones. An illuminated portrait emerges of how an earnest, passionate, hard-working boy becomes the “King of Pop.”

Partial list of interviews: Lee Daniels; The Weeknd; Pharrell Williams; Misty Copeland; Kobe Bryant; Mark Ronson; John Legend; Questlove; Katherine Jackson; Joe Jackson; Marlon Jackson; Jackie Jackie; L.A. Reid and more.

Alt Pop/Rock Group She Is We ‘Boomerang’ Video Out Today on Vevo!

SHE IS WE ‘BOOMERANG’ VIDEO OUT TODAY ON VEVO!

boomerange-video

LOS ANGELES, Calif.—February 12, 2016—Rachel Taylor, frontwoman of alternative pop/rock group, She Is We, today released the music video for the band’s new single “Boomerang,” on Vevo. The song premiered on Alternative Press and will be featured on the band’s debut album, WAR, out March 18.

Link to “Boomerang” video HERE.

She Is We’s music is arena-ready rock with radio-ready lyrics and a ton of fight. Taylor lives her life, she says, in fight or flight mode—awake and ready. “I battle every day, more pissed off than I am sad.” The savagery in her vocals stems from real life violence and abandonment, but she’s not taking it lying down, as you can hear in “Boomerang”: You held my head down/Didn’t let me breathe/But look who’s drowning now/You hear that loud sound/Screaming out and free/My voice was finally found.

Taylor is the former “savage frontwoman” (New York Times) of He is We, where in a New York Times review, Jon Caramanica noted her “pretty, powerful voice.”

– ‘Boomerang’ will appear on the band’s debut album WAR, out March 18.

– She Is We was the main support on Jack’s Mannequin’s ’10 Years in Transit’ Reunion Tour last month.

– “Boomerang” goes to radio on February 15, and there are already 10 major market stations playing the song.

– She Is We will tour with We The Kings starting March 16, playing everywhere from New York (March 24 @ Gramercy Theater) to Chicago (March 31 @ Bottom Lounge) to Los Angeles (April 9 @ Troubadour). Full list of dates below.

Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike Release 2.5 Hour ‘Bringing the Madness 3.0’ Show Liveset

DJ MAG’S #1 DJs’ “HIGHER PLACE” FEAT. NE-YO IS #1 ON THE BILLBOARD DANCE CHART

29vh_20151217RudgrcomDVLM42432048px_2

LOS ANGELES, Calif., January 13, 2016 – Trailblazing their home country with three massive shows, the #1 DJ’s in the world Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, brought their biggest and boldest concept to date to Antwerp during the third weekend of December. Now fans that wish to relive this spectacle, or for those fans who were unable to attend the weekend’s proceedings, the Belgian brothers are releasing the full 2.5 hour show in high definition on YouTube.

Link to show HERE.

Completing three sold-out nights at the Sportpaleis Arena with their new production ‘Bringing The Madness 3.0,’ and with fans flying in from all over the world, the brothers delivered an audio and visual feast in front of 60,000 fans throughout the weekend’s proceedings. An enormous triumph by any musical artist’s standard, especially considering fans snapped up the initial run of 40,000 tickets in under 40 minutes – a feat previously seen only from the likes of iconic artists U2, Madonna, Coldplay and Beyoncé – encouraging the brothers to add an additional third date to the run of shows and increase the total ticket volume for the opening weekend to 60,000.

Across the three-day run of shows, some of music’s biggest names made surprise appearances to join the DJ’s on stage. From the undeniable stardom of EDM’s power punching Afrojack to the global flag-bearer of the entire trance movement Armin Van Buuren, and the tangible musical prowess of Grammy-Award Winning ‘Higher Place’ collaborator Ne-Yo, each evening was packed with an array of surprises. Alongside the impressive line-up of headline acts, the launch weekend of the ‘Bringing The Madness 3.0’ ensured that both atmosphere and energy levels were ever high and peaking for the unveiling of the new mainstage show and set!

Following on from the release of the livestream video of their 2014 sold-out ‘Bringing Home The Madness’ concert, which to date has received over 25 million YouTube views, this year’s livestream video gives fans an opportunity to witness the impressive stage production from the team behind Tomorrowland, feast in the special ‘back to their roots’ all-vinyl set by Dimitri Vegas and experience the coming together of some of dance music’s biggest stars for exclusive b2b performances.

Even when surrounded by over 400 kilograms of confetti and 55 tonnes of CO2, it seems dance music’s biggest DJ’s still know how to raise the bar and and truly cement the notion that their 2016 show ‘Bringing The Madness 3.0’ is a must see for the year ahead.

With recent news that their Ne-Yo collaboration ‘Higher Place’ just topped the Billboard Dance/Club chart, holding the #1 spot, as well as receiving more than 15 million Spotify streams and over 10 million YouTube views, the duo will now head to the U.S. for the first quarter of 2016 to complete work on their debut album.
